Henry’s Hideaway

I love this little place with all of my heart ❤️ the walk to the beach is short yet rewarding with every step. A great place to rest and recharge. I enjoyed stargazing and the evening ocean breeze. I hope to return in the future.

Henry's is really a hidden Hideaway

Upon arrival to the Hideaway, we found a very cozy, clean, & organized rental. Very peaceful & quiet setting. The deck gets full sun 3/4"s of the day, good for just relaxing, playing cards, or just watching the many birds that came to the feeder we brought with us. Jack answered all our questions. We will be coming back in the future.

Henry’s Hideaway Harpswell Maine

Very nice cottage with a great location. Close to the water, and an easy drive to mid-coast Maine points of interest such as Bailey Island, Boothbay Harbor, Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, Freeport, and more. And the local neighborhood of Harpswell, Maine has some great scenic ocean views without driving anywhere else.

Quiet and comfy

Henry's Hideaway was perfect for a weekend of exploring Harpswell's preserves with my husband and a working vacation alone for the rest of the week. After long days working in Brunswick, it was great to have a quiet location to sit on the deck and enjoy the breeze. It had everything I needed. There is an easement down to the water, too. Bring a folding chair with you if you want to sit on the beach.

Great little place!

The property was very clean and comfortable. I really enjoyed the location and access to all that Harpswell had to offer. The deck was private and a nice place to sit after a day of playing in the ocean or hiking nearby trails.

Our week in beautiful Harpswell, ME

My husband & I arrived on a Saturday, and checked out the following Saturday. We both thoroughly enjoyed our rental through Mary & Jack. With updated interior, semi-secluded from busy road traffic, location close to family in next town & reasonable cost, this made for a pleasant experience for our week in Maine. We would definitely search for renting this specific listing, when planning a return trip to Maine.

Henry’s Hideaway in Harpswell

Nice, cozy cottage with cove views gave us a good sense of privacy - leisurely breakfasts under the umbrella on the deck were especially nice - nicely located within easy drives of a number of good hiking preserves.

Great Maine Cottage!

Henry’s Hideaway is the perfect location for a relaxing vacation. This cottage was clean, well maintained and the kitchen had all the basics. There are many preserves and trails to explore in the area. We started each day with coffee on the deck talking and listening to the birds. Thanks you for a wonderful vacation!

Happy @ Harpswell HideAway

Bright and airy would describe Henry's HideAway. The Murphy Bed was very comfy and the kitchen offered basic supplies. Linens were high quality, everything was in good shape. All in all a lovely spot to explore the Harpswell peninsula and Brunswick area.

great for couple or single traveler on one of many beautiful harpswell peninsulas

squeaky clean and nicely appointed … for me great location … good for birding, walking/hiking many preserves, lovely mid-coast Maine quiet and easy walk to “old school” New England ice cream stand and classic white village houses/churches … would also be good for kayakers … yet only short drive to Brunswick and its attractions.

Fall Magic

Henry's Hideaway is perfect for a fall getaway. It is set above the trees with views of the water that changed everyday with the falling leaves. There is a trail down to a great rock covered beach. Jack and Mary are great hosts and provide a map of all the hiking trails along the main road. The Hideaway has everything you need. The deck is where you live with the sun shining on it most of the day. I hope to be back soon.

Cozy stay

Definitely a cute cozy place. Just the right price and private enough to enjoy the area. Walked down to the beach area. Rocky beach area was pleasant for a quiet stroll. We had everything we needed in the kitchen, even a large enough pot for lobster. Host was quick to respond. We would recommend.

For us - perfect!

Henry’s Hideaway was clean and modern with all of the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. Jack and Mary responded quickly to an issue with the internet. An added bonus was walking the many trails in the Harpswell Heritage Land Trust. This section of Harpswell is quiet, quaint and convenient to so much on Maine’s mid-coast. Thank you Jack and Mary!

Wonderful week in Maine!

I loved my week-long stay in Harpswell. The location is great, it's handy to beaches and nearby towns, but also bucolic and quiet. The deck and hammock were wonderful and I set-up my laptop on the table outside for most of the week for my remote work. The cottage is perfectly set-up for one person and the space is very well laid out. I am looking forward to returning again in the future!

Great place for my wife and I to unwind, relax, and enjoy some much needed quality time. Jack and Mary's cottage hideaway was perfect! The place was spotless and had just about everything we needed. Jack was very helpful with suggestions on places to visit and where the find the best lobsters in the area! So many things to do, I only wish we had more time! Jack and Mary were great hosts!

The cottage at Harpswell is very special. I have stayed on two occasions and could not ask for more. It is clean, well stocked, private, and so convenient to the Sound. The deck provides for lovely stargazing. Looking forward to my next visit. Thank you Mary and Jack. Sue

The pictures do not do justice!

This little slice of heaven is exactly what we wanted for our trip to Maine. While it is a 40 minute drive to Portland it is worth it! I have stayed in a lot of rentals in my travels and this is by far one of the best. The pictures can't show you how this cottage feels or how great Harpswell is. Have your morning coffee on the patio and enjoy the sounds of the birds and great fresh Maine air. We will be back, that I am sure of.
