About this property

Quiet and Cozy Seaside Cottage with Amazing Sunsets

  • Welcome to our family seaside cottage, since 1964 generations have enjoyed this quiet cozy ocean side retreat! Whether it's being outdoors swimming or boating on Carrying Place cove, searching for sea glass & shells on the rock beaches of Pigeon Hill Bay, Blueberry & Raspberry picking, hiking in the Pigeon Hill Conservation area or Petit Mann Wildlife Refuge, sunning on the back deck listening to the sounds of nature, playing croquet in the large backyard or relaxing inside with one of many books by the gas fireplace, or sit at the large dinning table and challenge yourself with one of many puzzles or board games; this unique cottage offers something for everyone. For all there is the Milky Way Galaxy unfolding above you, looking up at one of clearest night sky's in the northeast!
    This very clean and well maintained cottage features a fully equipped large kitchen and one full bathroom. Four to eight people can comfortably sleep in the one bedroom (queen bed) and the three other areas of separated flex space, each with its own full sized futon or fold out sofa, The cottage offers a 4g, WiFi connection, a large TV with Amazon fire stick to stream your favorite shows and movies, BBQ grill, a land line phone for emergencies, and washer & dryer.

Great vacation spot.

This was initially a little further out than I had thought but that turned out to be a wonderful advantage. It was just perfect for our vacation. It had everything we needed and the view of the sky was spectacular.

Family trip to maine

Stayed here with my father and brother while we were visiting my mother. Spent the week at this quiet and cozy seaside cabin. Beautiful views of the water during the day and all the stars at night. Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back. The host was very friendly and answered any questions we had.

Wonderful stay

This house was comfortable, well provisioned, and had the added benefit of accessibility with a ramp, shower chair, and a grab bar in the shower. Everything we wanted was easily found and the kitchen had all a cook could ever want. The water view in the back and abundance of wildlife just added to the experience.

Great location and atmosphere

If you’re looking for a little bit of an adventure, rather than a bland modern hotel room in town, this is a great choice. It reminded me of the house at the lake I grew up in, in northern Michigan, with lots of outdoors to enjoy and enough of the right amenities inside. Steve was very responsive and welcoming.

The stay was amazing! I live in a rural town in Aroostook County, ME. I thought I knew quiet. I didn't! There was no traffic noises and no machinery sounds in the distance. The property is beautiful with the cove and the grilling form the deck. The walk trails close to the property are relaxing and scenic. It is a perfect place to get true relaxation.

Great quiet spot

Super clean place, nice big kitchen with actually sharp knives. This was very close to some great hiking spots. Space enough for my family of four. We also enjoyed the view out back and saw deer, herons, and lots of dragonflies. Beds are comfy, and we all slept very well at night. This was perfect for a week to decompress. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Amazing Spot

Situated on the narrowest part of a peninsula, exactly between world-class nature preserves, with a tidal basin cove in the back yard and beach access across the street, this comfortable cottage just can’t be beat. Loved the entire region…visited multiple preserves and hiking trails. Very quiet and restful. Swam in Pigeon Hill Bay every day!

Awesome!

This was an awesome place to stay! The cabin had everything we needed and was clean and in a beautiful location. The check in process was seamless. The owner Steven checked in with us a couple of times via text to see if we had any questions or needed anything.. Which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Wonderful Experience!

We had our original VRBO cancel last minute, so we found this place, we are so glad we did! Steven was wonderful to work with, he always reponed within an hour or less. The house was so clean, well stocked, and so much fun. Get up, walk down the road and watch the sunrise, it's worth it. Highly recommend staying here!

This cabin was the perfect way to start our vacation in Maine. The cabin is secluded but there is still activities to do 20-30 min away. The host left us a list of things to do and restaurants to try that were around the area. The cabin has an amazing view of the sunset over the water and the stars were stunning. We saw a family of deer in the backyard. It felt like a home away from home! We would love to go back one day!

Nice cottage out in the sticks.

We enjoyed it. Really quiet. Nice, cozy place. Pretty wild country there. A lot of deer (and on the roads). Roughly an hour to Acadia. Access to water is not great for swimming purposes, but the sunsets are nice and the so is watching the tide. We only stayed 3 nights, so not everything explored, obviously.

Wonderful Place

The house was just what we were hoping to find for our vacation. It was a home away from home. We were able to relax in comfort after a day spent exploring the area. Everything was very clean and well stocked with whatever might be needed for our stay. We were pleased to find features which made it easier for someone with mobility challenges. Steven was great! A tropical storm was expected during our stay and Steve made sure we knew what we needed to do. We would like return to this rental again if we are in the area. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Move your heart

Mom in her 80's has mobility challenges and this cottage provided necessary access amenities. Tho physically motion might be difficult, her heart soared to be in this wonderful place for even a few days, the birds and deer and trees and breezes, the changing tidal views kept her entranced. Trails nearby on refuge gave me plenty of wandering time and miraculously little traffic. Hope to return sometime soon.

Would return again

The location of the Cozy and Quiet cottage to the numerable walks in the area is a plus. Although it is right on the road to Petit Manon NWF the traffic isn't an issue. The kitchen is adequately furnished including everything you would need for a lobster dinner. You can purchase fresh lobster at the dock in Winter Harbor. The bed in the small bedroom is comfortable and being able to open the windows makes for a nice sleep. The futon in the back room isn't particularly comfortable. Even though there is a house on both sides, it is private due to the vegetation between. (There wasn't anyone in on either side). Overall we could recommend this old style cottage and would stay here again.
