About this property

Rest And Relax In Comfort While Exploring Mid-Coast Maine!

We welcome you to The Harbor Cottage on Barter's Point Road located in the sleepy, picturesque, fishing village of Tenants Harbor, Maine; the cottage rents from Saturday to Saturday during the Summer months and is available for more flexible bookings in the Spring and Fall. This 3 bedroom cottage is perched on an incline with terraced steps to the entrance. It is located across the street from the Harbor. There is a small shore front access a short walk away suitable for launching canoes and Kayaks. The cottage is equipped with WiFi and cable and furnished for comfort. Two of its three bedrooms have queen-sized beds and the third has a trundle bed. The cottage has a fully equipped kitchen that includes a large pot for cooking lobsters. The living room, with its beautiful but limited water view, has comfortable seating for lounging while in conversation, watching television or planning your next excursion. The front deck is also a great place to drink your morning coffee or evening cocktails. There is a small grocery and also a bakery within walking distance. Bring a picnic lunch to Drift Beach located a short drive away. Best at low tide, children can frolic and build castles on its silvery sands or search the rocks for sea creatures. When you leave the beach, visit Marshall Point light and Museum then drop by Village Ice Cream in Port Clyde and perhaps, make plans to take the ferry to Monhegan Island..

If sight-seeing or antiquing is of interest, mid-coast Maine has a lot to offer. For more beautiful sights, visit Camden or Rockport to the north and find roadside stands boasting seafood and fresh produce along the way. Book a sail in Camden to the north or whale (or seal) watching and deep sea fishing in Boothbay an hour to the South. Make sure to visit the Maine State Prison Store in Thomaston, known for its handmade wooden furniture and gifts. The sailing ship in the living room picture came from there.
And don't forget the seafood. Whether it is lobster, clams, fish or crab. It is delicious!
All in all, there is a lot in the area to keep you entertained..
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Linda Eller, Deborah 'O'Reilly

Host profile image
I have been vacationing in Maine all my life. My father's family came from Tenants Harbor so we vacationed there every year. I have continued the tradition with my own family. They visited their Grandparents as children and nowboth of sons continue the tradition by visiting the Harbor with their children.

Each year we plan a week or more in one or our cottages. We look forward to the fresh seafood and quiet atmosphere. In our busy lives, it is a wonderful place with an unhurried pace and incredible beauty.

Why they chose this property

This property has been in my family for years. My parents built it and it is one of their legacies to their children. Some guests bring their kayaks and paddle around the coastline, Most enjoy indulging in the incredible seafood. The ocean is visually stunning. Travelling north or south on coastal route 1 is a great way to learn about the area and we provide all visitors with a guest guide to the mid-coast area.

What makes this property unique

Access to the shorefront is just a short way away. Our guests can launch their kayaks or canoes in this area. We recommend Drift Inn Public Beach in Port Clyde, a 5-10 minute drive from the cottage for swimming and playing in the sand. This beach has a wonderful sandy expanse at low tide. Bring a picnic basket and a blanket and make a day out of it.

The Village of Tenants Harbor is just a short walk away from the cottage with scenic views on the way. The post office, general store, The Quarry Tavern and Harbor Bistro at the East Wind Inn, The Town Landing, The Schoolhouse Bakery, and The Happy Clam restaurant with its Outback Bar are nearby. Walk down Mainstreet and drop in at the St. George Historical Society to learn about the area. Continue on past the Town Office and see the sculptue of St. George and the Dragon. The Jackson Memorial Library and the Granite Gallery are only minutes away.

The Cottage is located only a short distance (10 minute drive) to Port Clyde where you can book Tickets for the Ferry to Monhegan Island, pick your favorite flavor at Village Ice Cream, enjoy the scenic view from Marshall Point Light or check out the art galleries.

We invite you to stay at the Harbor Cottage in Tenants Harbor as you enjy your adventures exploring the midcoast of Maine
