This spectacular oceanfront house sits on two acres and overlooks peaceful McFarland’s Cove, Johns Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. The location is beautiful and idyllic. It’s located in the heart of New England’s most picturesque region, mid-coast Maine, and includes all the essentials to delight the senses: the smell of fresh sea air, the sounds of the lobster boats hauling in their catch, the taste of fresh seafood and local produce, and the lovely sunrise and sunset views enjoyed from the large porch overlooking the bay. From spring flowers to fall foliage, the area is serene and peaceful.

The house itself is unique and classic. It has exposed wood throughout, pine floors, a nice open floor plan which combines the living and dining rooms, and a fireplace to gather around at night. Outside, a large porch with rocking chairs and a wicker seating area provides a perfect spot to soak in the stunning views. Other features include Adirondack chairs, a fire pit, picnic tables, and a private dock (perfect for swimming and fishing) and mooring. A spacious lawn in the front allows for fun and games.

Although the house is a classic Maine oceanfront cottage, everything is brand new including all the appliances, all the beds (high-end Serta hotel beds), the linens (300+ thread count), the down blankets, the TV (a 39” HD flat screen with DirecTV), the DVD player with a movie library, and a fully furnished chef’s kitchen. We also have high speed wireless internet access.

The house has five bedrooms and sleeps 12 comfortably (one king, three queens, and one large bedroom with four XL single beds).

Island Grocer, a gourmet shop/deli, is two minutes down the road so you never have to worry about getting your morning latte with the daily New York Times. Additionally, there are many great restaurants minutes away.

Local attractions include:
• Pemaquid Lighthouse – perhaps the most photographed lighthouse in the U.S.
• Boothbay Harbor – one of Maine’s most charming harbors with great shopping and restaurants
• Monhegan Island – a famous artist colony and long-time home of Andrew Wyeth
• Fort William Henry – A National Historic Landmark built in 1692

CONCIERGE service available. Please ask for details.

    • What a lovely "Maine Cottage" experience!! The house was well furnished with charming furniture, wonderful bedding, and a well equiped kitchen. The views from the porch beckoned you to stay with your coffee or your wine. Easily assesable to Camden or Booth Bay Harbor for sightseeing/shopping(though you may choose just to stay on the porch reading a book)...

    • What a wonderful vacation home. The incredible views and delightful combination of rustic refinement make this a great place to stay. We loved having coffee on the porch overlooking the cove. The house was furnished with everything needed and was located centrally to many vacation activities. The owner was professional, courteous and very easy to communicate with. We look forward to returning to this truly wonderful getaway. Thank you.

    • We had a lovely family reunion and took full advantage of all the house and the area had to offer! The kids and grandparents had a lot of fun (and a lot of success!) fishing off the dock. We even flagged down some boats and purchased fresh lobsters for dinner. The house itself was lovely and perfect for our four families (including a 97 year old and a 1 year old, as well as 4 couples and 2 kids). Just a little more insulation/sound proofing would have made it perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The porch and rocking chairs were great for reading and relaxing. The beds were so comfortable. Emma and Dan took great care of us and made us feel at home. We hope to come back in the future.
