Location: Northport, Mid-Coast & Islands, Maine, USA (Mid-Coast; 15 miles North of Camden 8 miles South of Belfast)
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Den, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-5)
Our Carriage House is located on a beautiful stretch of Maine's mid-coast area. Conveniently located between the two towns of Belfast and Camden, the house is set in a very private area, at the end of a mile-long paved, private cul-de-sac drive. Nestled into a wooded ridge at the top of Jackson Hill, the Carriage House is an ideal vacation home for a family or a couple looking for peaceful, upscale lodgings while exploring coastal Maine.
The house is a new construction, completed in the spring of 2004. It is the sister building of a larger home (not visible from the Carriage House) but both houses share the same driveway. The house features all new appliances. The master bedroom has a queen bed and adjoining bathroom while the second bedroom has a set of bunk beds (that can be separated to make two twins).
There are two outside decks. A small shaded balcony off the kitchen offers a lovely place to have enjoy morning coffee while viewing the beautiful wooded surroundings, mountains, and distant ocean. The back patio is the perfect place for outside grilling, suning, or reading.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
Joe and I live on the coast of Maine with our 3 young children. Joe is a local pediatrician and enjoys sailing and playing soccer during his time off. I am kept busy as a stay-at-home mom, triathlete, and travel guru.
Why the Owner Chose Northport
We bought the house and the land that it was built on in 2004. We lived here for 2 and a half years while we planned and built the house that we currently live in, 700 feet up the hill. We think that the carriage house is a perfect spot to stay for anyone who is interested in seeing mid-coast Maine. We love the fact that the house completely private: nestled in the side of a hill, surrounded by beautiful woods, and the Camden Hills and Penobscot Bay in the distance. When we travel, we also appreciate clean, well appointed facilities. We have done our best to make the accomodations in the Carriage House those that we would hope to find when traveling.
