"Vartakooin Doone" (which means 'The Pink House' in Armenian) was built in 1890. It is one of dozens of very pretty little cottages in the village of Bayside, with fine views across Penobscot Bay.
The cottage is bright, filled with light and full of charm, with antique furniture, local artists' paintings, a lovely porch and a delightful deck off the main bedroom.
The modern kitchen is fully equipped: a beautifully restored 1960s stove/oven, a microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer. Olive oil, salt, pepper, spices and other condiments are available for your use.
Please note the sleeping arrangements: two bedrooms with full/double beds and one bedroom with a single/twin bed.
Outside there's a small grassy yard, a unique rock garden and a gas grill.
Bayside village started as a religious camp in the 1800s and gradually grew into a beautiful little village of gingerbread cottages. It's the sort of place where families come back year after year. Friendships are forged and renewed every summer.
There are no businesses in the village itself. Social life revolves around porches, the parks, the dock and the Yacht Club, which must be the humblest, most laid-back yacht club on the eastern seaboard.
The cottage is fully winterized and is available for rent all year round. Winter in Bayside is peaceful and beautiful!
Stayed w a 5 yo amd my wife. Great location. Was in mid oct and we had everyplace to oir own. The kitchen is a cooks dream w the vintage stove. Close to belfast and far enoigh to be alone. Dock was lots of fun for crabbing amd kids to play
This was our second visit to the cottage, and we were again extremely satisfied: clean and cozy cottage, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, great location (very near Penobscot Bay--a 2-minute walk to the village wharf). The cottage has a lot of "character"--as does the whole seaside colony (Bayside) which surrounds it.
The owner (Andrew) is to be complimented on accurately presenting this cottage--very near the sea (Penobscot Bay) in Bayside, Northport, ME. It was indeed cozy and charming, with a lot of character; it featured comfortable beds, plenty of towels, a well-equipped kitchen, and some nice "extras" (small upstairs sun deck, with good views; excellent collection of paperbacks, etc.). Bayside is a lovely little colony of ginger-breadish cottages. In late June it was extremely quiet (and the water was extremely cold). We would strongly recommend this rental.
Lovely location with views of the water and easily walkable. Full of personality throughout. Appreciated the washer dryer!
We had a wonderful stay! Cottage had everything we needed for a successful stay. Cottage was clean, nicely decorated, well-maintained. Owners were very accommodating and easy to communicate with if we needed anything or had any questions. We really didn't though since thing like Internet and trash pick up were all spelled out. Great location! Wonderful place! We had a great time! Thank you!
the home is full of the personality of the owners, bright, colorful, and warm. We had a great stay in it and would certainly return.
Clean and well maintained and the owner is great to deal with.
