A beautiful property with stunning views. The cabin is quaint, and very well kept with a charming coastal vibe. The property has secure fencing for those travelling with pets and a well curated outdoor space. The host, Angela, is extremely prompt, responsive and well informed about the area and local must-dos. Overall, a fabulous trip! Looking forward to returning!

Cute cottages, great view

We had a nice 3 night stay at Angela’s Halibut House and Lobster Lair. The house is nicely decorated and has a great deck overlooking the water. Halibut House was perfect for 2 people and our adult daughter enjoyed her privacy in Lobster Lair. Most of our stay was foggy and rainy, but we were able to go hiking at Quoddy Head and eat at some local restaurants. We did not cook there, so can’t comment on that part but our dog loved the yard and the deck as much as we did. Angela was very responsive, helpful and ready to make sure our stay went well.

This was a perfect location for us! The house is right on the waterfront, with a private beach available for walking or sea glass hunting. It's also within walking distance of the local market, a nice takeout place, and a Dollar General. The dishes and other amenities were good quality (not always guaranteed in rentals). The shower was warm, with good water pressure. Once the gate is closed, our dog had a large fenced in yard to roam around, without worrying about him getting out or bothering the neighbors. The owner and caretaker were both friendly and responsive. The only ding I can think of is that since the main house is quite small, the kitchen, dining area, etc. are too. But we will definitely consider staying there again!

Slice of relaxed heaven

You can’t beat the view and the sunsets. The proximity to the pier is amazing. Everything is within one hour to see. So wonderful fisherman’s war restaurant we found a little town about 45 minutes away with a nice little shops. Great yard for dogs absolutely loved it.

Beautiful waterfront property, great cottage

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Lubec gem. The cottage was super close to everything in town. We loved having the main bedroom upstairs and the “bunkhouse” next door for the kids. It was a relaxing low key space and a great property for dogs (fully fenced in). We highly recommend, thank you!

We LOVE the Halibut House!

We had a fantastic stay at the Halibut House and exploring the Lubec, ME area. This place is everything we needed and the description was spot on. Best feature - the view of Johnson Bay and the fenced in dog yard! We couldn't have asked for anything better. One of the best vacations ever. We will return someday and when that day comes, we will definitely stay at the Halibut House again. Thank you, Angela, for everything!

Wonderful week

Our family of 4 stayed the week. Views are fantastic. Kayaking in Bay was outstanding. Abundance of wildlife (saw whales, seals, fox, eagles, and more). Kids (and us adults) had fun exploring beach collecting treasures like beach glass and special stones. Overall, would not hesitate to recommend or stay again ourselves.

Halibut House and Lobster Lair are charming!

These adorable properties are small but by no means spartan; plenty of comfortable places to curl up, all the “little touches” you can think of, and a very responsive owner and property manager. No “buts;” we loved it.

About the host

Host profile image
We have been coming to Lubec and Campobello Isle, Canada for over 20 years; we love the area so much, we decided to purchase the Halibut House in 2021.

My husband is a commercial fisherman in the Florida Keys, and I am president of our local animal shelter. We love having our family, friends and dogs join us in our adventures and hope you will enjoy the cottage as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

The Views are breathtaking, the wildlife is abundant, nature is so pristine here. Some of our favorite things to do:
*Enjoy our morning coffee and evening spirits on the deck while chatting with friends and watching our pups romp in the yard!
*Eat seafood; lobsters, clams, mussels, halibut, salmon, haddock, etc., YUM!
* Light house exploring is fantastic; there are four in under ten miles.
* Digging for clams; check which beaches are open before you go.
* Lunch ferry to historic Eastport, Deer Island, St. Andrews, Gran Manan or Blacks Harbor; you are sure to see whales on the ride!
Arcadia National Park is close enough for a day trip.
*Cherryfield is the blueberry capital of the world; it is a nice day trip with lots of antique shops, farms (alpaca and farm stands, breweries and a few vineyard tours along the way.
*Whale watching and puffin tours are always a great time!
*Bar Harbor is a quick day trip and has a fun downtown area.
*Walk to dinner in downtown Lubec and catch the seals playing under the bridge to Canada or behind Waterstreet Tavern.
*Sea glass hunting. Our beach/ bay once was home to 7 sardine factories; locals always say it is the best for treasure hunting!
*Hiking! The number of local trails and parks is astounding! Cobscook Shores is a series of fifteen extraordinary parklands nestled along the Cobscook Bay. There are 11 other well-known trails and parks within the local area.
