A picturesque home in a lovely coastal town

My family and I instantly felt at home in this beautiful vacation rental! The building and yard were as charming as the photos showed and we loved how easy it was to get to Belfast's downtown. The owner was always available whenever we needed her and the home was very clean and well maintained.

Victoria home in a lovely neighborhood

Cottage Rose is a large Victoria house in a very nice, quiet neighborhood. There's everything you need and the extra linens and new washer & dryer were very much appreciated. The owner and property manager were easy to get in touch with and helpful. Belfast is a nice little harbor town with some good restaurants and things to do.We had a relaxing vacation here.

wonderful stay!

lovely, historic home with beautiful, large living spaces downstairs. During our stay we ranged from two - six guests, plenty of room for all. Great new Weber grill for cooking outdoors. Lovely neighborhood, walking distance to town, harbor and all that Belfast has to offer, even in Covid times. Thank you Judi for letting us stay in your wonderful home.

Perfect for us

This property was perfect for us. It was located near family and friends as well as close to other cities we wanted to visit. It was clean, comfortable and well stocked. It would have been nice to have had (but not necessary) access to local TV stations for news and weather... We would love to stay again sometime.

Great house in a perfect town

Rose Cottage is a warm, comfortable, roomy house that is located in a quiet walkable residential neighborhood. Judy, the owner, communicates well and is very pleasant to deal with. The kitchen is well stocked, the furniture is comfortable and there is plenty of room to spread out. The location is perfect - a short walk to downtown with its many restaurants and shops, the Harbor Front or beautiful Belfast City Park. Or you can wander around the neighborhood and enjoy the variety of lovely old houses. This is definitely the place to stay if you are visiting Belfast.

Well Worth It

This is a beautiful, spacious, clean, well appointed home in a historic neighborhood of Belfast. The home is so nice that one might wish it would remain so one could curl up with a good book in this comfortable setting. The house is an easy walk to downtown Belfast and its harbor front. Belfast is a beautiful town with out the gentrified sameness of other coastal destinations. The rental transaction was efficient. Would have liked to stayed longer.

GREAT LOCATION!

The house is in a quiet neighborhood. It is within walking distance to downtown and to restaurants, food market, pubs, harbor, ice cream, parks, etc. Parking in the side driveway makes going in and out very easy. We visited Belfast in summer and the town was not crowded like many of the other towns along route 1. Belfast is in a good location for easy day trips if you want to explore outside of the Belfast area. We enjoyed driving up to Mt. Battie, (great view of harbor) Camden Hills State Park and for our next visit we may explore Arcadia National Park. The house is a charming single victorian. It is well spaced out and decorated with furniture and paintings that add to the victorian feel. The beds are comfortable and the house is very clean. The back porch is a great place to have morning coffee/tea if you are staying in. The owner is very accommodating and nice to work with. Looking forward to our next visit!!

Wonderful house in lovely town.

The Rose Cottage is a lovely classic New Englander, very clean and nicely decorated. Great kitchen and fully equipped -- we cooked most evenings at home -- and very quiet comfortable bedrooms. Separate TV room and a large comfortable living area to have friends over. The house is on a very quiet street within easy walk into downtown Belfast. We had a great time.

Charming Belfast Victorian

After many years of day trips to Belfast, we were excited to spend a week there and Judy's charming Victorian was the perfect spot for us. Spacious, well-appointed, and a short stroll to town through a lovely neighborhood, it also had gorgeous flowers blooming, and we especially loved the spectacular pink hydrangeas. The beds were comfortable, the area quiet, and we slept well. Morning coffee in the sunny living room bay window was the perfect spot to plan the day's adventures. We had fun hosting friends for dinner on a rainy evening and the house was cozy and comfortable for a delightful evening. We loved our visit and highly recommend Cottage Rose! One suggestion - written directions for the TV & convection oven would be helpful.

Quiet and Convenient

A short step back in time in this Victorian cottage situated 5 minutes from Belfast’s picturesque harbor. Low key, super quiet neighborhood surrounds this quaint two-bedroom frame house with updated kitchen, cozy living room, and separate dining/TV rooms. Privacy porch for morning coffee and small reading nook on second level add to the laidback ambience of the home. The century-old Victrola record player in the hallway is enchanting!

Great Thanksgiving in Belfast!

We were very happy staying in this beautiful house for the week of Thanksgiving. The house is beautifully furnished, and really gives you that authentic New England Victorian experience. And the town is very special. The people are friendly, the stores are full of hand-made arts and crafts, antiques, beautifully curated clothing stores, etc. You have to order pizza from Alexias (I think it’s called) and Thai food from Rice and Noodle Thai Restaurant — the food from both places was exceptional. We had a slight issue when we first got there with the Internet, but Judy got it fixed right away — she was very helpful and eager to make sure our stay was pleasant and trouble-free. Our only (very minor) complaint would be that the fireplace was inoperable, but in the end we didn’t really even miss it.

Excellent location in nice quiet neighborhood within walking distance to town and harbor.

Belfast is a great little town and this property was just what we were looking for. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Guests may want to be attentive to the railings to the second floor. They are a little rickety so might present a problem for anyone with active children or people who have difficulty with stairs. Otherwise, we had a very enjoyable stay and would stay there again.

Location, charm and comfort!

What a lovely time we had in Belfast, Maine staying in this beautiful and comfortable home from August 6-15, 2020! Our last vacation was in November 2019 and with the stresses and strains over the past six months due to coronavirus, we really needed a break to relax and refresh and Judy’s beautiful home, fit the bill perfectly!😊 Three other “sets” of our extended family had each also rented other properties in Belfast and because we had all taken good care to arrive to Maine with negative coronavirus test‘s, we were able to visit with one another and enjoy a wonderful family time together. Judy’s home quickly became the go-to place for larger gatherings and we celebrated my niece’s 16th birthday with a wonderful outdoor cookout, which was so easy to do with the newer gas grill, the table and seating on the porch, the table and seating on the patio, and even a wonderful old-fashioned picnic table next to the patio.😊 We particularly loved the location of this home as it is just a 10 to 12 minute walk to downtown – a perfect way to connect with all that downtown Belfast and the beautiful harbor has to offer - from cute gift and clothing stores, to delicious restaurant‘s, to gorgeous views, to hiking the rail trail – this was our first trip to Belfast and it will definitely not be our last!! We can’t thank Judy enough for sharing her beautiful home for lucky renters like ourselves and we highly recommend checking this place out if you’re ever going to be in Belfast and are looking for a comfortable and well appointed place to stay!😊
