About this property

Seafarer's Retreat/ Walk to restaurants and beach/Water views/ NO PET FEE

Come and stay for a while at our relaxing Island view home on Water Street, by the Roosevelt bridge, in the charming little town of Lubec. Our cancellation policy is very relaxed and reasonable because we understand how quickly plans can change these days. The Seafarer's Retreat has all of the comforts of home and has great Island and water views from most of the windows. We work hard to give every guest the best value for their hard-earned money! The Seafarers Retreat accommodates 8 adults comfortably. All 4 of the bedrooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floors so this home will not be a good fit for guest that have difficulty with climbing stairs. Children of all ages and dogs of all sizes are welcome here! There is plenty of room for your family with 4 bedrooms, and 2 and a half bathrooms. There is a bathroom on each floor, so no walking up or down stairs in the middle of the night. The bathrooms do not have a tub only walk in showers, but there is a bathtub for babies in the 3rd story closet. This home is family and pet friendly! You will find a highchair, pack and play, kid sized plates, step stools for tooth brushing, child's toilet seat, a baby gate for the stairs. There is an on-demand generator to weather any storms if you stay during spring or fall months. You can walk or ride our bikes and explore Lubec and Campobello. We highly recommend whale watching tours with Downeast Charters (operating from June to mid-September) and taking the ferry to Eastport (runs Thursday- Sunday) where you will find dining and unique gift shops. Lubec has 4 restaurants, a couple of cool gift shops, a fishing pier, the Fisherman's memorial, an old-style hardware store, and an IGA for groceries and alcohol. The restaurants in this area close earlier than in larger towns, most close between 7 and 8pm, so plan on an early dinner. You will be in town, but it is a quiet and peaceful location and the whole town is very laid back. Lubec is a nature lovers paradise, but there is no night life, it is just a small, historic fishing town. If you want an escape from busy city life this is the place for you. Walk or drive across the bridge to Campobello Island and explore the numerous hiking trails there and have tea and cookies at the Roosevelt summer cottage. Campobello is open to you if you have a passport and now you no longer need proof of vaccination. If you like hiking there are lots of trails in the area, we highly recommend the Quoddy head lighthouse's coast guard trails. From the deck you will enjoy a great view of the Roosevelt bridge, the Narrows, and the huge, 23 foot, rise and fall of the tides. It is a 10-minute walk to Mowry beach which is a sandy public beach where you can find sea glass. You follow a rose lined (roses are blooming in June) path to a sandy beach with a view of Grand Manan Island in the distance. There as a small viewing room on the 4th floor (the Crow's Nest) with windows all around so you can see in all directions. The Retreat has a smart TV with basic cable and 200Mbps high speed internet for streaming and free WIFI. You will find a full kitchen ready for you to prepare a meal. There is a Keurig coffee maker and a variety of k-cups as well as a regular coffee maker. You are our guests, so we make sure you have spices, oil, coffee, creamer, sugar, lots of utensils, and a huge lobster pot! All dogs welcome! No weight limit on your best friend! There are extra personal care items for you such as prepackaged toothbrushes, razors, lotion, etc. just take what you need. Pack some beach combing clothes, hop in your car, and come and relax and recharge at the Seafarers Retreat! No smoking, please.

Unwind in Lubec
Fantastic location. Unique home that has charm and character. Plenty of space to unwind and relax. Close to downtown Lubec, the water, and Campobello, NB. There is a lot to like about this house — the deck on the 2nd floor and the crow’s nest on the 4th floor. House was clean and comfortable. Highly recommended!

Great location, lots of room and water views. Highly recommend!
Property has been recently renovated. Very clean and well equipped. Lots of room, great firepit. Terrific location, walk to downtown restaurants and shops. Immediately adjacent to Campobello bridge. Well equipped kitchen, gas grill, laundry. Lots of windows, even a "widow's walk". Everything worked as it should.

About the host

Hosted by Damon & Jamie Martin

Host profile image
We wanted to buy a little cabin, on a lake, in the Maine woods, but when we came to Lubec we fell in love with the area and chose to invests our time and money here. Watching the sunrises , sunsets, and all of the wildlife will never get old. We opened our home as a vacation rental because we wanted to share the Lubec experience with others. We have made great family memories here and want others to be able to do the same.

Why they chose this property

It is a new house built over the bones of an 1800s Water street house. We love the window seats, reading nooks, view from almost every window, and the enclosed widows walk at the top of the house.

What makes this property unique

It is right by the Roosevelt bridge, walking distance from Mowry Beach, and we can watch yoga in the park and small concerts.
