We really enjoyed our stay at Castine Cottages. They are sometimes described as rustic. The exterior appearance affirms this description but the interior cuts a level higher. The furnishings are comfortable and attractive. The screened porch with two large deeply padded chairs is a great place to relax, overlook the water and observe wildlife in the twilight. The beds are comfortable. The living room furnishings are solid, comfortable and quite adequate. The kitchen is a galley kitchen, mean it is small with space for two adults standing elbows to elbow. Everything needed is there: a four burner stove, refrigerator with freezer unit, toaster oven, microwave, utensils, dishes, etc. There is no dishwasher. Running water is fine., cold water is quite cold (we liked that).There is no TV. The wifi worked fine for us. We stream entertainment to tablets so no TV wasn't noticed.If you expect to sit down for large family meals, you will have to do it outside at the large picnic table. Near the table, is a small grill. Good it you like to cook out.The small village of Castine is nearby with a carryout store. It is a very historic site, one of the oldest continuously occupied European settlements in North America. The Dyce Head light marks the mouth of Penobscot River and the end of Penobscot Bay. There is a lot of Maritime activity to take in.
