About this property

Sunny Cottage on Private Oceanfront Point

Cozy Sunny Oceanfront Cottage on your own private point with 250ft of coastal frontage and unobstructed ocean views from each of the 8 windows in the living room. Experience peace and tranquility as you gaze at the golden sunset reflecting across the water. Enjoy the wonder of nature as you watch our local bald eagle, loons, Canada geese, ducks, deer, turkey and many local birds. Watch the lobsterman pull his traps, seagulls harvest their clams, and osprey dive for dinner….. or cast your own fishing pole off the rocks and fish for stripers … just steps from your front door. Nature's entertainment is constantly changing just outside your window. It’s no wonder that Maine nurtures so many artists and poets. Our beautiful surroundings are the inspiration for the poet to translate words into emotion and the artist to transform paint into a vision.
The cottage is 5 minutes from Brunswick which hosts an abundance of great restaurants, shops, cinemas, golf courses, museums, bike and walking paths, and the popular Maine Music Theatre. Smithsonian Magazine voted Brunswick as one of America’s best small towns in 2012. Maine’s largest city, historic Portland, is only 45 minutes away…..Although one would wonder why you would ever want to leave. So sit back, relax, and remember days gone by, when life was simpler and vacations were a time for rest, relaxation and renewal.

Peaceful!
Clean, quaint, small cottage with amazing views of ocean-tide fed bay. We watched seals, ducks, egrets, cranes, and eagles from the Adirondack chairs close to the cottage or the from the cottage windows. The owner was very pleasant and accommodating.

Private Oceanfront Point
It is hard to beat this property for location. It is out on a point surrounded by water on three sides. Great for watching wildlife in quite solitude. We saw seals late one evening. Close to restaurants, shops, maritime museum, old forts and other attractions. Talking to the owner felt like talking to an old friend.

Perfect place for Water and Quiet
This is the perfect place for a couple who wants to be on the water, read peacefully, enjoy the treescape and yet be close to everything, good food, other towns on the coast both North and South. Best visit, Rockland for the Farnsworth Museum, food and shopping. Loved being on this peninsula.

What a Gem!
Outstanding on every count! Owner (Diane) could not have been more helpful and accommodating. House and grounds have been scrupulously maintained -- even the windows had been washed just before our arrival. Kitchen and bedrooms were well appointed and supplied with everything a visitor might need. Secluded and calendar-quality waterfront setting and scenery provided all the peace and privacy one could desire. We'll definitely be back!

Maine Mindfulness
The charm of this cottage is its location. Surrounded on three sides by water, it affords endless opportunities to decompress and watch Bald Eagles, Great Blue Herson, Egrets, Ospreys, deer and turkey, Terns diving for fish . . . A balm for the soul. Small in stature it may be, big it is BIG in charm and vistas. Diane, the owner, lives close by, and while you would never know she was there, she is always ready to help with anything that you may need or answer your questions.

Charming Stay
Small cottage in a delightful setting, on a point on an inlet just south of Brunswick. Very well equipped galley kitchen, light filled bedroom/living area, comfortable furniture. Tiny bathroom with an above the sink mirror hung too high for a short person to easily floss her teeth; a simple remedy would be an additional small mirror on the same wall. Diane provided ample information about the area, both in printed material and verbally. We enjoyed meeting her, especially the evening we checked in when she pointed out a bald eagle perched in a nearby tree, watching for a fish to snatch out of the inlet. And evening sunsets over the water to boot. Lovely!

Serene Setting Exceeds Expectations
This cottage's jaw-dropping vista is in a quiet location, allowing me time to unwind and enjoy being alone, meditating, or even staring out the window or from one of the Adirondack chairs at the very tip of the property. With shopping, hiking, and entertainment just four miles away, I could jump in with others if I so desired. Diane, my host, was lovely and was there when and if I needed anything. The hardest part was leaving.

Best location I could have chosen
Unlike many, I didn’t have a particular location in mind when I booked the cottage. I had the flexibility to choose where I rented based on the home vs being required to be in a location. Regardless, the cottage was the absolute best choice. Excellent location (less than an hr to Portland, 20-30 minutes to many other areas), lots of variety in activities (hiking, biking, shopping, sightseeing). And the views!!! The cottage is right in its own little inlet and the peace and tranquillity cannot be beat. I could easily have spent an entire day (or three) there just enjoying sitting by the water and reading. Highly recommend, and I will absolutely be back! Host was great, very personable and full of lots of great suggestions.

Location, Location, Location!
We were thrilled by the incredible 270 degree view of the Bay visible from the room and the cottage’s proximity to the water. The location simply couldn’t be better: Private and quiet, yet ten minutes from charming downtown Brunswick and extensive food, supplies and interesting stores and restaurants. In addition, Diane was a wonderful host: friendly, thoughtful and totally respecting our privacy. Without our asking, she even changed our towels halfway through the week since it had been damp weather and always responded instantly to our requests. What more could we ask?ithisidyllicsettsettsetting? We will most certainly return.

Magical private peninsula with a sweet tidy cottage
The cottage is on a really lovely quiet small peninsula sticking out into the cove. You can hear the road a bit and see a few other houses, but overall it's so peaceful and private and beautiful. Swimming possible at high tide. Or just sit in the chairs and watch the eagles and the seals and feel very happy to be in Maine! Diane was a great host, friendly but really gave us our privacy. And the cottage is very comfortable, clean, and pretty. A great stay!

Beautiful Oasis
My husband and I throughly enjoyed our stay in this little cottage on the water. The sunset, the location. It is driving distance to some of the most beautiful hikes and natural beauties in the area! We only had a short time here, but we spent the day exploring the region and came back and grilled up some fish. Diane was a wonderful host and very helpful to show us the different treasures to see. We had never explored the area before and cant wait to go back!

What a perfect slice of heaven!
My husband and I made a long-overdue return to Maine after many years and this little cottage on its own Western-facing point exceeded our expectations in every way. Beautiful. Quiet. Private. Our hosts went out of their way to make us feel welcome, with recommendations for local restaurants, hikes, etc. The bed and accommodations were very and comfortable and the sunsets were absolutely stunning! No doubt, we’ll be staying here again!

Awesome place
If you are looking for a great location to fully experience Mid Coast Maine, you would be hard pressed to find a better rental than this. The location is ideal. The cottage on a brilliant piece of property offers great views, privacy and a very quiet, natural environment. Only 10 minutes from downtown Brunswick and Route 1 , you have easy access to many nice restaurants and easy travels to other great spots like Portland, Freeport, Bath, Boothbay and many more. Diane, our host was simply the best. Very friendly, kind , helpful and totally respectful of our privacy. We hope to have an opportunity to stay here again in the near future!
