Heavenly
My partner and I stayed for 4 nights and it was absolutely lovely. The cabin was clean and cozy. We loved having breakfast on the screened in back porch surrounded by woods, and traveling to all the great places to eat and explore in the area. Everything was serene and very relaxing. Highly recommended.

Amazing House!
I had stayed with my family at the house for a week, and it was absolutely lovely at the house! The outside areas were great, and the inside felt very cozy and quaint. The house isn’t large by any means, but it wasn’t any problem for me or the people I was staying with. Another thing I loved was the neighborhood, since it felt like the perfect place to take a nice walk. Overall, my stay here was great, and I would recommend it for any future guests.

Cozy, lovely getaway
This cottage is just the right place for someone wanting a quiet, local, lovely getaway. Suzy is an outstanding host, and I really enjoyed all the tiny details that made it more comfortable. It's warm, inviting, smells so good with all the wood and woods around. There is a lake right down the street with the most gorgeous sunsets. From the screened-in-porch to the cozy living room and bedrooms, it was an enchanting place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Suzy & Joe Kane

Host profile image
We enjoyed our cottage every summer for 1 to 2 weeks every year, starting in 1985. It wasn't until 2013 that we moved to Tenants Harbor, after spotting a year-round house for sale on the same street as our cottage.
We surprised ourselves by making the decision so quickly; we had lived more than a decade on Peaks Island, Maine. We had always enjoyed the beauty of Tenants Harbor and have learned what a wonderful year-round community it is. The views from our street and throughout the town change with the season, time of day, and weather and are a constant source of pleasure.

Why they chose this property

We were looking for a good location and something we could afford. We love the slow pace of Tenants Harbor and its proximity to the excellent shops, services, museums, and other entertainment in the towns of Rockland, Rockport, and Camden.

Since 1985, we've made some improvements, most notably the screened porch, the addition of a shower, and a thermostatically controlled gas fireplace, but we've kept the simple interior.

What makes this property unique

The cozy interior and the outdoor spaces; the views of the surrounding woods and the limited views of the harbor across the street. We also love the street we're on which hugs the harbor all the way to the center of town.

You can walk to the center of town in 15 minutes or less (about 1/2 mile) with beautiful views of the harbor with the sailboats and lobster boats and small islands. (Kayak Rentals are available through Port Clyde Kayaks, 207-372-8100, and will deliver free.)

The cottage has many windows so there is cross ventilation and many views.

The furnishings are attractive and comfortable, including the mattresses, and in good repair.

The wi-fi signal is strong; the cable service provides about 100 channels, and a DVD player is provided.

The gas fireplace, operated by thermostat, is perfect for cool evenings or cool fall days.

The screened porch enables you to be, in effect, outdoors, but protected from the elements (in case of rain). It's a lovely place to read or eat a meal.

The boat house provides good storage if you bring bikes or kayaks.
