A working waterfront cottage in Downeast Maine, trails and beaches nearby

About this space

Looking for a place to unplug, explore, and experience a quieter side of Maine? This cozy rustic cottage is a great home base for writers seeking inspiration, remote workers looking for a true “Work-From-Away” escape, or families ready for an adventure.

Surrounded by nature and just minutes from some of Maine’s best hiking trails, the cottage offers the perfect mix of getting away from it all while still staying connected. You’ll have excellent cell service and high-speed 100 Mbps Wi-Fi when you need it.

For a quintessential Maine experience, head down to the dock and pick up fresh lobster directly from the local fishermen. Bring it back to the cottage, enjoy it outside at the picnic table, and watch the sun set over the water. It doesn’t get much more Maine than that.

Whether your days are spent hiking, exploring, reading, working, or simply sitting outside with a good book, this is the kind of place where you can slow down and make memories that stick with you long after you leave.

The space

This is a rustic Maine cottage, and that’s part of its charm. Think less polished vacation home and more camping with a roof, a comfortable bed, and a great place to call home after a day outdoors.

If you’re looking for a secluded getaway, love the road less traveled, and appreciate a little rustic character, you’ll feel right at home here. Come with an adventurous spirit, relaxed expectations, and a desire to experience Maine in a more authentic way.

Other things to note

When you’re ready to wind down, you’ll find plenty to keep you entertained. The cottage is stocked with movies and games for cozy evenings after a full day of exploring.

Come for the trails, the lobster, the sunsets, and the chance to truly get away from it all.
