About this property

1930's Private Oceanfront Cottage


The historic Red Point Cottage, built in 1930, sits on a private 19 acre peninsula (shared with a family cabin) and enjoys its own cove and beach. Most of the property is covered by a conservation easement, which is open to our guests for exploring. Moss covered, secluded woodland paths, and a long private beach with tidal pool for swimming make this property a true Maine gem, removed from the hustle and bustle.

Master bedroom with queen bed, second bedroom with double and one twin, third bedroom with two twins, and pull-out futon in living room. 1 1/2 baths and all bedrooms have ocean views. Full kitchen with dining area. Pillows, blankets, and sheets are provided; tenants are responsible for bringing own bath and beach towels.

For evenings and foggy days, the living room is well-stocked with a wide variety of games, puzzles, and books, with a large selection of nature study handbooks.

30 min. to Blue Hill and 90 min. to Acadia National Park. Other local highlights include The Goodlife Center, Tinder Hearth Bakery, Four Seasons Farm and The Holbrook Island Sanctuary. Local companies will deliver kayaks and stand up paddle boards.

We look forward to having you explore Red Point.

About the area

Harborside

Located in Harborside, this cottage is in a rural area and on the waterfront. The Blue Hill Wine Shop and Dyce Head Foot Path are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit Main Street and Windsor Chairmakers. Blue Hill Books and Blue Hill Co-op Community Market are also worth visiting. With snorkelling, power boating and sailing nearby, you'll find plenty of adventures in the water.
