About this property

Beautiful South End home, 5 minute walk to downtown and beach!

Welcome to Rockland and Lamorna Cottage!
This 1880s home has been lovingly restored. The cottage offers a true getaway on a quiet South End street. It's a short walk to all Rockland has to offer - festivals, shopping, world-class museums, the water-front, several restaurants and the small public beach.
On the first floor, there is a Living Room with a sectional couch and chairs, a TV with internet hook-up and DVD player with an assortment of movies. There is also a large dining room with seating for 6, a gourmet fully-equipped kitchen with island, a 3/4 Bath (shower) and a laundry closet with full-size washer and dryer.
On the second floor, there are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a queen bed and a twin. Both rooms have side tables, bureaus, table lamps and ceiling fans. There is also a full bath off the second floor hall with a deep soaking tub.
Off the kitchen is a deck with outdoor seating, a picnic table, gas grill and a small garden. The front yard is a sunny place to hang out on the Adirondack chairs.
The number of guests is limited to 4 plus up to 2 children (there is a pull-out bed in the Dining Room and a large couch in the Living Room). There are hardwood floors throughout.
There is free internet available and we are pet friendly. We charge $25 for each additional guest over 4 to cover linens and cleaning.
Availability Mid May thru end of October. See calendar. We can't wait to see you!

Fun in Rockland

My husband and I rented the house as we visited our son in the area. This home is very comfortable with plenty of room and a very nice kitchen, great for cooking in. The neighborhood is super quiet and it’s an easy 10 minute walk to downtown Rockland. We would definitely recommend this home and would stay here again!

Wonderful home away from home

Absolutely terrific home - a phenomenally well designed and equipped large kitchen, perfect for casual or gourmet cooks; everything from shelves filled with books to cupboards with games at your fingertips; efficient and thoughtfully designed bathrooms; comfortable bedrooms; quiet location; all immaculate and spotless. Great location with short walk to bakeries and museums. A plus!!

Stylish, comfortable & centrally located

This is our third time staying at this property. It's centrally located where we can walk to the village to see the museums, the harbor or take day trips to the beach. It's very clean, stylish and the property is well kept. Julie is very responsive specially during this year with the pandemic. I would stay here again!

First family trip to Maine

This was the first time our family visited Maine and we had a wonderful week! We loved the proximity to downtown and the little Sandy Beach. We took day trips to a number of places to explore lighthouses and even Acadia! The house was a great space for our family of 4 and we really appreciated the well-stocked kitchen for cooking at home. Highly recommend!

Great home in convenient location

We had a wonderful time during our weeklong stay. Conveniently located close to Rockland center and the ocean which made it easy to walk into town to get whatever we needed and enjoy the views. Home was very clean and well organized with everything we could need and very spacious for the two of us & our small dog (would easily accommodate 4 people). We would absolutely stay here again! Highly recommend.

IDAHO SPUDS IN MAINE.

Very clean, good location, very quiet. Didn't figure out the heating situation until the last day. One thermostat was Farenheit, the other must have been Celsius. We didn't freeze but the two thermostats need to be on the same page with each other for guests to understand. But we would stay there again in a heartbeat.
