About this property

Charming coastal retreat, sleeps 8 with Newagen Seaside Inn Amenities!

Welcome to the Salty Dog Cottage… Located at the southern end of the island of Southport, our cottage provides everything you need to make life-long Mid-Coast Maine memories. This 3 bedroom, 1 bath cottage offers sleeping for up to eight. Downstairs you have a spacious bedroom just off the family room with a full queen; upstairs there is another spacious bedroom, also with a queen. The third bedroom offers 3 twin beds plus a twin trundle. Along with the 1 bath, our cottage also has a large outdoor shower, perfect for rinsing off after a long day on the water.

The large front porch offers an inviting respite. Enjoy morning coffee as the sun comes up; meals under the stars at the large table; or simply sit and watch the goings-on in the neighborhood. Guests have access to all the amenities of Newagen Seaside Inn (NSI), including the swimming pool, tennis and basketball court, and for the adventurous, swimming in Newagen Harbor from the NSI dock. This is just a quick walk up the back path.

NSI also offers an award-winning restaurant and bar, perfect for those evenings you want someone else to do the cooking for you. Or shoot over to Robinson’s Wharf and grab some fresh seafood and fare of all types while you watch the local lobstermen bring in their catch.
Staying in? Robinson’s also offers a full seafood market on site. Our cottage includes a propane grill and single stand burner for the do-it-yourself lobster lovers. The Southport General Store is just a few minutes up the road and offers everything else you need, including a deli and grill, pizzas, beer and wine, and an assortment of local treats.
The rest of the island offers many options for exploration: walk the many local harbor communities; soak up some sun down at Hendricks Head beach; walk over to Town Landing and watch the comings and goings around Cuckold’s Lighthouse…the list goes on.
Feel like heading into town? Boothbay Harbor is minutes away, offering shopping, dining, and entertainment in a historic seaside setting. For day trips, our location is ideal, offering a mid-point along Route 1, from historic Bath to Rockland, and all the quaint villages along the way (Wiscasset, Damariscotta, and Waldoboro). Make a day trip then return home to catch the sunset over at Sunset Path (located just across from the main entrance of NSI).

We hope that you get the chance to make the lifelong memories here in Southport that our island community is known for.

The house was very clean with a great kitchen with eat in dining and comfortable living room. The beds were firm but good, and really liked that the beds were made and plenty of towels and supplies at hand. Nice bathroom and great deck. And best of all was the access to the Newagen Resort’s swimming pool. This madesuch a difference for the kids who were there every day! Definitely recommend this home for rental!
