Bring your kayaks and launch at our neighborhood harbor right-of-way access at mid tide-high tide. This access is probably less than a hundred yards away. The freshwater pond across the picturesque causeway is always accessible.
Guest Access

Other things to note
Bring kayaks, paddle boards, or other small boat craft to launch at the harbor tidal right-of-way. A canoe would be a good fit to explore the fresh water pond next door.
Two propane heaters are on site. One heater on each side of the house to take the chill off those brisk Maine mornings. Lots of games and puzzles inside.
Located in picturesque Sebasco Estates, where there's lots to see and do. Also, the property is very close to Popham Beach, West Point, Small Point Beach and Bath Maine.

This was the most perfect place to stay while we were attending a wedding in Phippsburg. Lovely area with a view of Sebasco Harbor. The managing agent was super nice. Greeted us with fresh flowers and a Maine Blueberry Pie! We really felt welcome.

Maine family vacation

This is a rustic family home nicely decorated with a beautiful water view with many boats. Our hostess, Liz, was very pleasant and prompt with any information that we needed. She even had a delicious pie on the table along with a wild flower bouquet. A notebook was provided with much information about the house .and surrounding area The house was stocked with general kitchen items like salt and pepper, some spices which was especially helpful since we came by plane. The house had 3 roomy bedrooms upstairs and a bath. the downstairs had one bedroom and 1.5 baths. Loved having convenient laundry though we only used it once. We play a lot of games so I would have liked a few more choices there. The WiFi and internet worked fine, but my cell service was terrible. Our 5 adult family had a wonderful stay in the peace and quiet.

About the host

Hosted by Palmer Family

Host profile image
The owners, the Palmer family have been vacationing here for three generations. They have a rich and deep attachment to the neighborhood. Originally from the area they are now spread from coast to coast in the US. Their motivation for sharing their beloved cottage is to help financially with upkeep and updating costs. This is not a full time rental, Harbor View is only available seasonally between family use.

Why they chose this property

The neighborhood is generally quiet with only seven families and eight cottages. The neighborhood also offers breathtaking views of Casco Bay. As Pine Drive is a one-lane gravel road, neighbors and guests drive slowly so hikers and bikers can safely navigate.
Numerous hiking trails start nearby the neighborhood and the right-of-way property next to the causeway offers ocean launching of small craft from mid tide through mid tide. The freshwater pond across the causeway is always accessible.

What makes this property unique

Harbor View offers breathtaking views of Sebasco Harbor on Casco Bay. Nestled among tall pines on a dead-end road, the property offers solitude and the promise of a variety of outdoor activities.
The cottage is spacious enough to enable group activities, and plenty of room to spread out for individual work or quieter choices.
At one time the cottage was used a bit as a duplex when the first generation insulated the original one story section for extended season living and added on the two story section for the younger family members. Therefore, there are two kitchens, the main one with a dishwasher and electric stove and fully attributed and a smaller one with a gas stove. Both kitchens have refrigerators.
