2 Bedroom Cottage in Penobscot

Take a quick jaunt(approx 5 min walk), a wooded path into a meadow that overlooks the Bagaduce South Bay. Enjoy the warmth of the rocks as you lounge by the water and listen to the wind as Mother Nature intended. Listen to the seals play and watch them as they bask in the sun at low tide (did you know the seals snort?) Explore the tide pools, where muscles, lobster, starfish, and crabs like to lounge. Rock in the hammock, let the day pass by with a good book and feel the ocean breeze. Fire orange sunsets, with campfires, lobster bakes, and toasted marshmallows to follow, are the perfect way to end a summer day at this adventurous cottage. Down by the shore is the ideal spot to launch a kayak- paddle out and explore the islands and the shoreline of the Bagaduce River. Take a trip upstream to the reversing falls and eat at the Bagaduce Lunch. Paddle to the historic waterfront of Castine.
Our cabin was built in 2013 for comfort and family relaxation. We have named it “The Captain's Cottage” in honor of our son, who attended the Maine Maritime Academy. The cottage has a quaint New England feel. Escape the noise and bustle of the city and feel time slow down on the shore. Enjoy every second of the beautiful landscape and the comfort of this home.
Historic Castine is only 5.7 miles away! Blue Hill is 11.6 miles away, or you can visit Acadia National Park, which is under one hour away.

Summary: Quiet secluded spot and an adorable cabin! Everything was provided - linens, paper towels, TP, lots of spices, hand and dish soap, drip coffee pot, cozy beds, lots of fans, a hammock by the shore, and firewood for the fire pit! It was great to sit by the fire at night, watch the lightning bugs, and listen to the frogs and trees. The shore was beautiful. Would definitely stay here again!

Summary: The cottage is very easy and comfortable to live in, the deck is a lovely place to sit and have a meal. It is not very big, perfect for two of us and our small dog. The property offers a large private space with a lovely walk down to the water. Deer, porcupine (twice), hummingbirds around the house and seals, cormorants and an eagle in the river, paradise. Easy drive to Castine for shopping. You cannot see water from the cottage, but we found that being surrounded by trees was very relaxing. The large lawn was great. Another great summer in Maine.

Summary: The property this rental is located on is beautiful with a lovely walk through the woods down to the water. It did rain a lot while we were here, so we were not able to get outside as much as we would have preferred. I would say the house and property appear better in person than in the listing’s pictures. The check-in, communication process was great.

Summary: We found this cottage to be clean, cozy and quiet just as we hoped. The hostess reminded us to bring our own towels and bedding which was an important reminder as I didn’t notice that information on the listing. Unfortunately, we didn’t bring our own dish towels and dishrags so we wished that the cottage could include those. Overall, a lovely, relaxing place to stay.
