This was a cozy place to lay our heads after days of exploring. We enjoyed being away from the crowds at the end of the day. It was clean, cozy, had a beautiful view. We would gladly stay there again.

Lovely, peaceful and well located!

We really enjoyed our stay in this tittle cabin. Easy access. Beautiful, peaceful setting, nicely landscaped. Inside was very clean and cozy. Amenities were as described with all we may have needed. Very comfortable bed with a nice view of the moon through a little window! It is conveniently located. It was an easy drive to Acadia National Park and many other beautiful and interesting places in the area. Do not miss Fort Knox and the Penobscot Narrows Bridge and Observatory. It worth a visit! Tyler and Isabella are great hosts. They provided a lot of information and were always ready to answer any question. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Tyler Weidner

Host profile image
We are a family of four who loves to travel, spend time outdoors, and explore new places together. You will often find us hiking, camping in our van, trying new food, visiting local breweries, or checking out art galleries.

We created Steamboat Wharf Cabins to offer the kind of stays we enjoy ourselves: comfortable, simple places to relax, explore, and make memories. We are excited to share this special part of Midcoast Maine with our guests and hope you have a wonderful stay with us.

Why they chose this property

Steamboat Wharf Cabins is located in Sandy Point, a quiet coastal area of Stockton Springs in the heart of Midcoast Maine. The cabins are tucked into a peaceful wooded setting, with Sandy Point Beach just a short walk down the road.

It is an easy place to slow down, enjoy the coast, and use as a home base for exploring nearby towns, restaurants, trails, beaches, and scenic drives. Belfast is close by for shopping, dining, and waterfront walks, while Camden, Castine, Blue Hill, and Acadia National Park make great day trips.

Guests love the relaxed, nature-forward feel here—coastal Maine without the crowds, but still close to plenty to see and do. After a day of exploring, come back to the cabins, enjoy the fire pit or Adirondack chairs, and unwind in the wood-fired sauna and cold plunge.

What makes this property unique

Steamboat Wharf Cabins is a peaceful collection of nine private cabins tucked into a quiet, wooded setting near Sandy Point Beach. Each cabin offers a comfortable place to relax after a day exploring Midcoast Maine, with the beach just a short walk down the road.

Guests book their own private cabin while enjoying the charm and natural setting of the larger property. Our cabins are thoughtfully designed for couples, solo travelers, small families, and friends looking for a cozy Maine getaway. Sleeping arrangements and layouts vary by cabin, so please review the photos and details for this specific listing.

Every cabin includes a private bathroom with shower, comfortable bedding, heating and air conditioning, Wi-Fi, a TV, mini-fridge, and coffee setup. The newer cabins offer additional space for small families or guests who would like room to spread out.

Outside, enjoy the wooded surroundings, Adirondack chairs, fire pits, and easy access to the coast. Guests may also reserve time in our wood-fired sauna and cold plunge—a great way to unwind after hiking, beach time, or exploring nearby towns.

Steamboat Wharf Cabins is close to local hiking, coastal scenery, restaurants, and all that the Midcoast has to offer. It is a relaxed, nature-forward place to slow down, recharge, and enjoy a memorable Maine stay.
