Relaxing oceanside getaway in beautiful Harpswell

We had a relaxing time and enjoyed superb accommodations staying here. This was a perfect place to enjoy with our 2 dogs. The dog friendly beach and park are nearby as well as a few restaurants if you don’t feel like cooking in the fully equipped kitchen. We are grateful that we were able to vacation here and hope to again next year.

Enjoy Coastal Maine

The home is nicely situated along a cove where one can enjoy the local nature. The town has numerous galleries with works from local artists. There are countless restaurants and food shacks that specialize in local seafood. All the while visitors are not far from lighthouses, trails, and amazing coastal rock formations.
