We had an amazing stay and the property was clean and maintained and supplied with all we needed. The views and location with easy access to the water were superb. It’s quiet lots of birds, geese, turkeys, osprey and a couple bald eagle sightings. Quick and easy drive to town for groceries and supplies you may need. The full Maine waterside experience.

Wonderfully secluded with a beautiful view.

The title says it all. Property owners have their own separate house on site, along with a few other rental cottages. Properties share a common dock that is in excellent condition. Owners were super welcoming, friendly, and reachable if needed.

Had a great stay at the Centerview cottage! Views were spectacular, saw lots of wildlife right from the deck. We enjoyed paddling around the area with the kayaks and jumping in for a quick dunk from the dock. Can’t wait to come back next summer.

The cottage was fairly clean but could use some updates. A door on the bedroom would have given more privacy. The shower/tub should be replaced. The grounds of the property certainly could withstand some grooming. There was also lots of goose poop everywhere.

Wonderful waterfront location

We had such a lovely stay at Centerview cottage. My only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer! The view from the cottage is beautiful with easy access to the water. Connie, Mike, and Mike jr. were all super helpful and welcoming. The location - a short drive to wonderful hikes, beaches, and towns - can't be beat. We hope to be back!

Amazing Views

Home was very clean, comfortable, cozy and included all the essentials. Loved the water views and easy access to the dock. Husband enjoyed fishing off the dock and I enjoyed shopping at the Freeport outlets. It was a great relaxing vacation and hated to have to leave but will definitely be returning next year. The owners Connie and Mike are great people which we enjoyed chatting with.

Beautiful Spot Right on the Water

We had a lovely stay at Centerview Cottage and the owners, who live next door, could not have been nicer - they greeted us when we arrived and even cheered for us once we got up the courage to jump off the dock into the freezing water! As other vacationers have noted, the cottage is a bit rustic, curtains instead of a door for the bedroom, but it has everything you need and the location cannot be beat - right on the water with osprey and at least one seal right in front of us! Also great for easy access to Orr and Bailey islands. Lastly, the wifi was very fast and the a/c was great! Wonderful stay.

Rustic retreat

It was so nice to take a break from reality here. We had such a nice time on our vacation and really were able to reconnect as a family without all the chaos of our day to day. We grilled and had fires and explored the area. This was a great location for getting a boat tour, having a nice dinner out, or staying in and watching the waves, birds, and bumblebees. The sunrise was particularly beautiful from the deck. The hosts were right there, very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for your hospitality!

Centerview Cottage

Connie and Mike were so helpful before and during our stay, answering our multiple questions so we would know what to bring with us, that there was ample parking for 3 cars, etc. when we needed anything during our two weeks they were right on it, including texting to offer us fresh towels, etc. before we thought to ask. Having them next door was a bonus, as we could chat about where to paddle to on their several kayaks, or where to go out to eat. These personal touches made all the difference in how we felt cared for, while being able to enjoy plenty of privacy on the large floating dock or on the gorgeous front lawn overlooking the ocean bay. The cottage was perfectly located halfway to the spectacular tip of Bailey Island, near ome fantastic hiking trails, and close enough to Brunswick for all out needs. It was a perfect vacation for us!
