Location: Jonesport, Down East, Maine, USA (2 Hours to Bangor & 4 Hours to Portland; 6 Hours to Boston)

Accommodations:  Oceanside Cottage, 1 Bedroom + Loft + Den, 2 Baths (Sleeps 4)

The Barn has been lovingly renovated into a charming seaside cottage. It is located on private acreage four miles from the village of Jonesport, across from Roque Island.

This unique oceanfront house exudes character and is furnished with an eclectic mix of antiques and tasteful artifacts. The Barn is a place where you'll immediately feel at home, and by the time you leave, you'll feel you've made a new and treasured friend. It's a peaceful get-away where you can get in tune with the sounds of nature.

Listen to the surf come ashore on the popple stone beach, enjoy the colors and textures of the lovely perennial and vegetable gardens, or take the path to the cliff side where you can marvel at the panoramic view of the ocean--perfect for sunrises.

Later in the day, stroll to a pristine sand beach where you may find some wonderful shells or bits of sea glass. Then relax on the front porch where you can watch the sun set over the open fields and freshwater pond.

There's no place more beautiful than Maine in the summer, and no place more perfect to enjoy it than The Barn at Mary Jim's Shore.

  • Enjoyed the week very much at “The Barn”. Eric & Betty have taken care to include about anything necessary to insure a comfortable setting and experience. The addition of TV and Wi-Fi add to the conveniences however we ended the week using very little of either. We made a day trip to Canada and enjoyed however upon returning we walked out back and my wife and I decided the view from The Barn was the best we had seen all day. We particularly enjoyed buying local fresh seafood and preparing in the kitchen, which is among the best equipped we have found in our years of travel. Excellent seafood is available at a number of places in Jonesport and Machias however we enjoyed Tall Barney’s most. Perfect hosts, the coast of Maine and seafood – what more could one ask for. We’ll certainly be back. Jack & Mary Betty Masters, Gallatin, TN

  • We have returned many times to the Barn to enjoy its charm and serenity. The Barn is not your typical impersonal rental. It is like an old friend who invites you in and then surrounds you with warmth and comfort. How can you help but have a fabulous day when you wake up and see that glorious ocean right from your bed?! Staying at the Barn with its gardens, meadows, and popplestone beach is nourishment for your soul.

  • If you want to rest in a beautiful seaside home, watch the wildlife, and spend nights stargazing, you will LOVE this place. The hosts are wonderful and warm while respectful of your space if you just want to be alone. The land around them is absolutely breathtaking and if you love seafood, you've come to the right spot. Get ready to fall in love with this place in Maine.

  • We had a wonderful week at The Barn at Mary Jim Point. The owners make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. It’s peaceful, with gardens, forest trails, cliffs, and two incredible views from the cottage: one of the ocean to the east where you can watch the sun rise (if you’re up that early), and one of fields and a pond to the west where you can relax and watch the spectacular sunsets--it’s a get-away that’s good for your soul! We really enjoyed everything there is to do in the area: bird watching, photography, walking on the beach, and going on day trips to see lighthouses, go fishing (my husband’s favorite), and have l-o-b-s-t-e-r (my favorite)! It’s the perfect way to experience the Maine coast.
