About this property

Primrose Seaside Cottage Above Shoreline With Gorgeous Views

McCollum Seaside Cottages are two quaint, 100-year-old, one bedroom, self-catering cottages situated on Moosabec Reach in a small, Maine fishing village. Rustic charm mixes with modern conveniences and gorgeous views to give visitors a comfortable retreat from the hectic world. Rent individually or together.

The Primrose Cottage is a rustic one bedroom oceanfront bungalow situated on a bluff above the shoreline of Moosebec Reach. It has a separate bedroom from the living area. Built in the early 1900's in the Craftsman style. Modern plumbing and filtered water added later. Equipped with wi-fi and situated on the bluff up from the shore. Easy walk to the local library, historic society and marina. Easy drive to many points of interest including Bar Harbor, Acadia, Schoodic Point, Quoddy Head State Park and Campobello. Local hiking on Great Wass Island and Bar Island are within a ten minute drive.

The cottage is a perfect spot to relax and take in the views or use as a launching point for Maine adventures. Jonesport is "real Maine." This is NOT Bar Harbor. No quaint restaurants and shops. Just places to hike, explore, and relax.

Moosabec Reach is a working lobster boat harbor. The shore/beach is perfect for hunting for sea glass, discovering things that wash ashore and watching for seals and eagles, not for swimming or playing in the sand. Water is very cold. Tides are about 15 feet, so shore looks very different between high and low tides.

The property is completely non-smoking, both inside and outside the cottage.

Please note that one must walk through uneven grass from the parking area and go up 3-4 steps to enter the cottage. It is not accessible to people with difficulty walking.

About the host

Hosted by Heather McCollum

Host profile image
Braden and Heather McCollum bought the cottages in 2011. Originally owned by the McCollum family, they were thrilled to be able to buy them back. When they are not residing next to the cottages during the summer, they reside in North Carolina. They both attended the University of Maine at Machias, and Braden's grandfather was born and raised on the property.

Why they chose this property

The McCollum Cottages date back to the early 1900's and there used to be around six cottages in all. They are situated on a bluff above Moosabec Reach on McCollum Rd., overlooking McCollum Beach. Given this history - the McCollum's needed to get them back in the family and make them available for others to enjoy again!!

What makes this property unique

Situated right on a bluff above the ocean in the heart of a working fishing community, these cottages allow you to escape, relax, and explore in a comfy environ offering stunning views. Purchase lobster right from local piers.
