A most amazing place. Wonderful vibe, beautiful surroundings. Homey, comfortable, with access to almost anything you could desire. A home to come back to over and over again. Then again.

What an incredible vacation home! It was everything that we could have hoped for and then some! We enjoyed many day trips throughout the mid-coast as well as staying home and kayaking around the island. It was so peacefull and beautiful to go early morning kayaking (4:30am) on the calm waters to watch the sun rise while having the harbor seals follow the kayaks around! High tide is the perfect time to launch your kayak right off of the top of the rocks in the back yard! "Red's Eats" in neighboring Wiscassett is a MUST if you like lobster roll!!! The light house at Pemaquid was one of our favorite places to sit on the rocks and soak in nature's splendor! The crashing surf was incredible, especially a couple of hours before high tide! This was, without a question, the most relaxing, easy going and "back to nature" vacation that we've ever had! We hope to come back to Safe Harbor in the near future. Anyone considering renting this vacation home can do so with CONFIDENCE!!! A+++

My family and I have been to this wonderful cottage twice so far. It is beautifully situated in a sheltered cove, yet still has a lovely view to the open ocean. I really enjoy kayaking up and down the coast of the island as well as up the cove and along a windy stream. The area is very quiet and yet also within easy access of many attractions along the mid-coast. I love the open layout of the cottage and its panoramic view. It is fun to wake up facing the view of the opposite shoreline and hear the gentle sound of the rigging of the sailboats moored in the cove. Looking forward to returning next year!

We had a perfect week. The house was everything we could have wanted! We canoed, picked blueberries and made a pie, picked mussels and cooked them for dinner -- delicious! This is a real gem - we would love to return. Thanks for this luxurious Maine treat.
