A New England style waterfront home located in a fishing community at the end of Ash Point Road. Watch as lobstermen bring in their daily catch and even go out on a lobstering trip with Robert Bibber, a lobster fisherman for over 50 years, captain permitting. Explore the local islands of Casco Bay like Eagle and Jewel Islands. Upon request, we have wharf or mooring access for those who bring their own boat, as well as boat launching sites. In view from the house are the Reversing Falls, also known as Basin Cove Falls or the Old Till Mill. An area where there is white water and strong currents when the tides come and go, so it makes this home an optimal place for those who like to kayak. There is a pebble beach along the cove which makes for a great place for the kids to take a swim or to explore the ocean bottom when the tide has receded.

Enjoy the lobster and crab bought nearby while overlooking the ocean. There is lots of space to breath and relax and enjoy a Maine vacation.

Last year was our first year renting our beloved house and we thank all our guests for making it wonderful. Now we look forward to another year and to meeting our new guests.

There is no access to basement or garage. WE DO NOT CHECK EMAIL OFTEN.

PLEASE contact us by phone to place a reservation or to make an inquiry. We thank you for looking and welcome you to Harpswell.
