This well-loved and timeworn summer cottage offers a peaceful shorefront perch overlooking Gilpatrick Cove and Northeast Harbor’s historic Fleet. With its stately bones and gracious layout, the home still carries the charm of bygone summers, though some features show their age. Available only in June, September, and October, it's best suited for off-season stays. While not modern or flashy, it can comfortably accommodate a larger group — ideal for those who appreciate character, simplicity, and the quiet beauty of the Maine coast.
