About this property

Full Moon on the Harraseeket, Freeport, Maine

Welcome to the Fish House; a small home on the Harraseeket River, near South Freeport Harbor that comes well stocked and decorated. It is available for weekly rental during June-September.

The home is perfect for a romantic getaway or kayaker's dream vacation. Enjoy beautiful views of Casco Bay and South Freeport's own Harraseeket River. An ideal spot to relax and rejuvenate. The Harraseeket River is delightful for kayaking, as well as the gateway to Freeport Harbor and into Casco Bay. While staying on the river, you may be fortunate enough to experience a full moon. Some of us believe, there is nothing prettier than a full moon on the Harraseeket.

Start your day with an iced coffee and breakfast sandwich down the road at the Village Market. Or later in the day enjoy a lobster roll at the Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster. Additionally there are three premier southern Maine breweries (Goodfire, Maine Beer Company, and Mast Landing) all within a mile of the home. Just five minutes away is downtown Freeport, home of LL Bean and many well-known retail outlets. From Freeport, you are well positioned to make day trips to many Maine coastal beaches and towns. In Freeport, you have Wolf Neck State Park and Winslow Park to enjoy. Portland is just 19 miles away for access to city life as well as ferries to islands in Casco Bay.

Beautiful scenery

Property was beautifully maintained, as well as clean and very well equipped with items to start your stay. Including the convenience of being so close to Downtown Freeport, and Portland was short drive away. We would definitely stay again especially for the views.

Very nicely furnished in a great location

The cottage is small, sunny, and comfortable with a large loft and lovely view from the back deck. We enjoyed eating outside amid the flowering plants and watching many birds come and go. The neighborhood is pleasant for walking and it is an easy walk to a tidal beach. The kitchen has everything you might need and the AC is a bonus on really hot days.

This was a very comfortable house for our family of 5. A great backyard with a lovely water view. The interior of the house is much nicer than the pictures. I loved having my morning coffee looking out the wall of windows to the water. The kitchen is small but functional, and the deck provides a really nice outdoor dining space. Freeport shops are a very short drive. We enjoyed kayaking from the nearby state park and town boat launches. We’d definitely recommend this rental.

Anne's Cottage Stay

The cottage has a welcoming atmosphere with comfortable and attractive furnishings. The kitchen is small but well equipped. There is a lovely peaceful view of the harraseeket River on the back deck where we ate many meals. The cottage is a 6 minute drive to Freeport and qiute conveniently located to the excellent Bow Street Market. Annie is a great host.

Wonderful place to stay in Freeport

The cottage was the perfect place to stay with my two daughters (8 & 10). They had the entire loft to themselves & i got my own room. It was the perfect size & we didn't even need to use the downstairs bed. Even though our week was rainy, I still woke up to a gorgeous view of the water each day. It was located close downtown Freeport & Bow Street Market. We hopefully will be staying next year as well!

Beautiful Property, missing water access

The home, the neighborhood, the view, even the weather were all spectacular. Perfect for a Maine getaway with access to parks and shopping. We had everything we needed in the home, even coffee! The one major downside was virtually no water access. The house, sitting 20 feet above the water with a very steep slope to a small marsh made water access impractical, which was a large part of why we were visiting. Other than access there was pet hair and many personal items in many areas making it clear we were staying in someone’s house rather than a vacation home. That said, the host was very kind and accommodating in every way making our stay feel very welcoming. We would likely return if we had access easy access to the water and a place to fish.
Amazing Maine views, and all the cabin feels
Great back yard and fire pit.

Great place to unwind!

My husband and I and our two sons stayed for about a week at the house while attending a family reunion. It was lovely! The view to the water is so peaceful and gorgeous. We kayaked a few times and mostly took it easy on the deck talking and eating at the table. The house is comfy and decorated beautifully. Annie was so easy to work with and very responsive to questions. We would definitely go back.

The cottage is small, very comfortable, has everything you need, and the view is just beautiful (my computer background has already been updated with a photo I took of the backyard and river). The location is great! So close to Freeport shopping, restaurants, and Maine Brewing. The drive to Portland is quick and easy. Would stay here again!

Coastal Maine at Its Very Best

This was our fourth visit to this property, and there is nothing we don't love about it. It's become a part of our summer planning. The cottage is cozy and immaculate, and has everything our family of four needs for a perfect vacation. The kitchen is well stocked and works perfectly for us; our girls get their own bedroom spaces downstairs and in the loft; and the green space outside is phenomenal (so many birds!). Location could not be better for trips to Portland, Brunswick, Popham, Rockland, and, of course, Freeport shopping. Anne is a fantastic communicator and an extremely generous host. You will not be disappointed. This is a true GEM.

Perfect location

We spent a week using our little sailboat in Casco Bay and this was the perfect spot for our family. Gorgeous views. Wonderful deck and fire pit. Cozy and comfortable all the way around. A nice quiet neighborhood but close to the grocery store and downtown if shopping is your thing. We’d definitely stay again!
