Our stay exceeded expectations. We will definitely stay here again! With the beach and bay right here, and town and hiking all within a 5 minute drive, our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer!

A great place to just exhale and relax. Served as a nice base for visiting Acadia NP, Rockland for a sailing adventure, Bucksport, Fort Knox, and other regional towns. Wonderful view of the bay. Very comfortable cottage. Had every need covered. A great place to stay if Belfast is your goal (and this is a must see town). Highly recommend this cottage.

My aunt stayed at Fran's gorgeous cottage while we stayed nearby, and she absolutely loved her stay! The view of the bay from the front porch is phenomenal, and we all enjoyed relaxing on the bench in the mornings and watching the seals, loons, and other sea birds in the water. My aunt found the bed to be very comfortable, and she really appreciated the heat pump on a couple of chilly nights. The location is very convenient to Belfast, where we enjoyed visiting the shops and picking up takeout from some great restaurants. We're already looking forward to all returning next summer!

We had a wonderful stay! The cottage was very well kept, and Fran and Ellen were fantastic hosts. They went out of their way to help with a minor issue that wasn't their fault, which we really appreciated.The daily views of the bay were beautiful, and we loved seeing bald eagles and seals sunning on the rocks. The location was perfect for hiking, fishing, exploring town, and taking a short drive to Fort Knox for the incredible views from the observatory.We definitely recommend staying here; Fran and Ellen truly make you feel at home.

Surfside @ Wonderview.

Very nice property. Clean and well maintained. Went to Moose Point State Park and found hidden gem at Swan Lake State Park. Great beach and fresh water rather than sea water. Beach at cottage very nice and not too rocky.

A little GEM!

Maybe the best place we have booked through VRBO! This cottage has all you need for a short get-a-way from it all. Belfast is a great little Maine town to stop & explore & the cottage is the icing on the cake. Comfortable digs with all you need & a comfortable bed to end the day. We loved it and easily could have stayed longer!

Great Cittage and Location

This was a great cottage It was clean and well maintained. Everything was labeled and there were written instructions. The owners, Fran and Ellen, provided great communication and information about the attractions and restaurants in the area. The location of the cottage was perfect. Right on the shores of Penobscot Bay.

Wonderful

What a slice of heaven! The cottage itself was so clean and thoughtfully stocked, and the view is unbeatable! We spent hours on the beach at low tide, and saw only a small handful of other people! Plus Belfast is such a cool spot and a great home base to explore from. If you’re at all on the fence- book it. If I could move in I would!!

Serenity

The cottage exceeded our expectations. It was perfectly set up for a family of 4 which include a 7 y/o and 11 y/o. The views were spectacular. The cottage is perfectly located for exploring Belfast, which has many restaurants, shops, and trails to explore. This was our 5th year in a row spending our family vacation in Belfast but our first year staying in this cottage, but we hope not our last. Our family cherishes the days spent at the beach and the evenings playing games or doing puzzles while listening to the waves crash outside the windows.

Absolutely Lovely

If you drive too fast, you may miss the turn onto Wonderview. But once you make that turn you will see the most charming site of little cottages hugging the coast. This cottage is in the very center, so it has the best full view of the water. This is a perfect place to enjoy Belfast. So cozy and charming, and the hosts were wonderful to communicate with. I want to come back to this place later this year, as Maine is quite beautiful!

Fantastic House Best View in Maine

I cannot say enough good about this house. The location is amazing, you are right on the water. You will for sure see herons and loons and probably seals, eagles, and ospreys. The water in August was actually not bad for Maine, you can swim right in front of the house. Belfast is maybe 10-15 minutes away and is a charming town, Camden and Rockland are maybe 25-30 minutes down the road.
