Tranquilidade no Retiro Privado em Penobscot Bay: Apaixone-se Pela Venda do Maine
Off the beaten path nestled along the banks of the historic Penobscot Bay, a sunny, tranquil home offers room to gather with loved ones for relaxation and renewal. You’ll know you’ve arrived at Fort Point Cove Cottage when you catch your breath at the scenery upon entering the home. The back of the cottage features an expansive view of the river as it flows into the bay, where all manner of wildlife may be observed if one knows how to look. Here is a place to enjoy quality time with all the amenities of home as you experience the rare beauty of Maine. Fort Point Cove Cottage is the kind of place to practice the fine art of human “BE-ing.” Treat yourself to time in a tranquil vacation retreat that is private and charismatic, yet close to all the attractions that make Midcoast and DownEast Maine renowned........Life is Good!
This cottage features 2 full bedrooms with a 3rd open loft bedroom, all furnished with new high quality luxury mattresses. Vaulted ceilings with an open great room below; the center of the home houses a grand open brick fireplace with wood burning stove to keep you warm on those cool summer nights. The galley kitchen is fully stocked along with a Keurig coffee maker that provides everyone's favorite brew. Poll barn provides covered outdoor grilling/dining with a spectacular water/mountain view.
Area Attractions: Stockton Springs houses its own lighthouse located in nearby Fort Point State Park, has its own local beaches and is centrally located along the coast which provides easy travel destination to both the Midcoast and DownEast Regions -- 40 miles to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Mt. Desert Island, and Stonnington; 30 miles to Bangor, Bluehill, Ellsworth, Islesboro and the popular destination of Camden Hills noted for its quant shopping village and where mountain meets sea; 40 miles south to the Rockland/Rockport area and Thomaston where you can shop at the Maine State Prison Store featuring its beautiful wood furniture and crafts handmade by the inmates. We are just a hop and a skip to Bucksport featuring Fort Knox and the beautiful Penobscot Narrows Bridge, Winterport for its quaint village with its winery and brewery, Searsport with its 8 miles of antique shopping while featuring 'Museum in the Streets' with its Maritime Museum and nearby Moose Point State Park and Belfast for its quaint shops, galleries and co-op.

This was a perfect spot to land for our family vacation to Maine! Great location and easy to travel for all of our day trips to Bar Harbor or Camden. Lovely house that works well for kids of all ages. Owner has great communication and was even able to ship something that we left in the house! We would definitely stay here again!

We travel so much to Maine we could claim residency.....Three couples stayed for a week with one of the couples making their first trip to Maine and we couldn't have selected a better location to give them their first Maine experience. I highly recommend staying at Tranquility on Penobscot Bay Private Retreat.......

Private and peaceful stay. House is filled with great energy. It’s beautiful, clean, spacious, and well equipped. The backyard was amazing with the view of the bay, ample seating, and outdoor dining table. We loved sitting in the Adirondack chairs on the deck with hummingbirds hovering just above our heads coming to the feeder. We were also visited by a flock of turkeys in the early evenings.Darlene is a great host; communicating with us before, during, and after our stay.

Long Awaited Vacation
Three couples enjoyed the property and all the area has to offer for a week. Sightseeing during the day and a great, relaxing, accommodating place to come "home" to in the afternoon and evenings . All the comforts of home, enough space to prepare meals, relax and visit, or just enjoy quiet alone time with plenty of seating and room for everyone no matter the weather. Very quiet, peaceful setting.

Delightful
This property totally exceeded my expectations in that it was like the owner went on vacation and let us use her house. It was so well provisioned including coffee, paper towels, blankets, towels and linens etc. it was like somebody lived there full time. The location was prime well with in striking distance of Bar Harbor, Bangor, Camden and of course Belfast. All worth visiting. If we were to vacation again in down east Maine I wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.

Cozy cottage, perfect yard and view.
Relaxing family get together in Maine. 4 adults, 1 toddler and our medium size black lab mix. Huge private yard with amazing water view. Great home base with lots to do in the area, sandy beach, state park and lighthouse as well as beautiful Acadia National park just an hour away. Enjoyed small towns nearby with great restaurants and farmers markets. Our daughter joined us with her 1 year old and was able to work with high speed internet.
Perfect family vacation. Wish it was our summer home!

All as outlined by the owner. Fully equipped inside and out. Very close to walking into your own home. Beautiful setting, with a nice porch to enjoy the outdoors. TV with streaming for those rainy days (we had two). Close to the grocery store (Hanaford), the pastry shop (Sweet Cheeks), and numerous walking trails at the nearby parks. Watch the bald eagles, water birds, and deer.

Beautiful home with lovely water view
Just a superb house with views of the Penobscot Bay & river. A very comfortable and well equipped home. Very clean. Well stocked kitchen. Lovely spacious yard with fire pit and Adirondack chairs. Easy access to Belfast, Bucksport, Castine and only an hour from Mount Desert Island (Bar Harbor, Acadia NP). Great hiking in the area. Great little restaurants. Ate our weight in lobster. Five stars! Darlene was a great host: communicative and accommodating.

A great second visit to this lovely home
This was our second visit to Darlene's home in Stockton Springs and it was as good as we'd remembered. The house is comfortable and spacious, with comfortable seating and an excellent bed. The view out over Penobscot Bay is stunning at all times of day and in all weather, and we particular like the huge windows in the living room and the comfortable and well-furnished deck. There are lots of great things about the area--it's a very short drive to the spectacular Penobscot Narrows Bridge, and we love visiting the 420-foot high observatory with its 360 degree view of the area. Fort Know is also a gem, and the waterfront walk in Bucksport is delightful. It's easy to go a bit further afield--we visited Blue Hill one day and the Courthouse Gallery in Ellsworth on another. All together, a wonderful place to stay.

Lovely home base for exploring
Our family had a wonderful week at this rental! It’s conveniently located near many great places to visit for day trips - Camden, Belfast, Lake St. George, Sandy Point beach, and of course Bar Harbor, Bass Harbor, and Acadia. The house was clean, comfortable, well equipped, and had enough space for all of us. The screened porch was perfect for early mornings spent drinking coffee and planning our days. We enjoyed the water views and watching the bald eagles each evening around the fire pit! There is no direct water access from the property but the host was so helpful with suggestions. The weather was a bit warmer than usual, and the house does not have AC, but there were ample fans provided and it cooled considerably each night. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest this rental to anyone traveling to the area - it’s a real gem!

Fort Point Cove Cottage was a delight with beautiful views and comfortable arrangements. We even spotted an eagle and two roosting ospreys during our first few hours there with the binoculars that were in the home. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with additional like coffee pods (which was an unexpected treat!), random cooking spices like salt, as well as ziplocs and other Tupperware containers. There were plenty of fans to help keep the home cool and nighttime was very comfortable with the quilts and bedding.My kids loved having access to well-built cornhole boards as well as the huge backyard.Darlene was extremely communicative and welcoming. Instructions for departure were very clear. The only downside was that the third bed was located in a lofted area, not an actual bedroom, but that is in the listing and was not a surprise to us - it just would've been nice to have an actual bedroom, but the location on the bay well made up for it.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Darlene made sure to list several restaurants and activities nearby.

Great vacation getaway
The Fort Point Cove Cottage was an excellent place to stay. My wife and I have rented numerous houses and condos and this house was one of the best. Everything in the house was very clean. We had everything needed to make our week comfortable including a well- stocked kitchen staples and kitchenware. We enjoyed being outside and this house met our outdoor needs. The yard was large and well maintained, the deck was great for early morning and late afternoons views of the bay; and the open space was great playing frisbee with the dogs. Then there was the enclosed porch for the mid-day sun with a cool breeze; we often ate our meals there and observed occasional hummingbirds. Then to top the day off, we enjoyed warmth of the fire pit as we watched the stars.
I have been traveling in Maine for many years, but never spent any time in Stockton Springs. This is a great location; it is a short drive to Belfast, and there are many nearby areas to walk and boat. Sears Island is a real gem of a reserve. You can walk at low tide around portions of the perimeter or walk inland on a road or trails. On the midweek days, we only saw 2 or 3 other walkers.
Also, if you like kayaking, Stockton Springs Harbor is only a 10-minute car ride and a great put-in spot.

Lovely, peaceful home on the water
Absolutely the perfect home for a authentic Maine experience. The screen porch is heaven on earth. We had a flock of turkeys that weren’t in the least bothered by our presence. So we enjoyed watching them munch on the grass everyday. Lots of birdsong. The house has everything you need to cook anything you want. This was our home base for two weeks while we explored all along the coast. Very private. Theres no houses in sight, although some close by hidden by all the trees, so very private. Some days we didn’t even leave the house. It was so relaxing we didn’t want to. They have a great tv and surround sound so we enjoyed watching movies together. THere’s no A/C, which wasn’t a problem for most of the time but we there were a few hot and humid days that made us get in the AC Van and go anywhere just to be in the AC. But it was never a problem st night because it was so cool. We kept our windows open and the fans going every night. I slept so good and woke up feeling completely refreshed everyday. Something I could never do my day if the year back home in Texas.

Yearly Maine Trip
Been vacationing in Maine for decades, the house & area of Stockton Springs is a wonderful peaceful bit of the Old Maine of my childhood. So enjoyed the house & grounds lots of room to spread out, fire pit nights, waking up to our 3 resident Bald Eagles was a treat. The house is well equipped and we had everything g we needed & more. Darlene is a wonderful host responsive & helpful. Can’t wait to return. Young’s Lobster Pound is the best in our opinion.

Eagle roost Penobscot views
Comfort, quiet, and serene view frequently accented by roosting bald eagles. Blue berry hedge with ripe fruit for breakfast in the mornings, plenty of firewood for gathering around the fire pit at night after cooking in the well equipped kitchen. Screen porch another great gathering place which was cool and breezy even on some 90 + degree days. Great location well away from traffic and noise but close to countless great destinations, including nearby trails on preserved Sears Island. I took one star off on accuracy only because Darlene, who was very accessible and easy to work with, needs to update a couple of items on the listing. Highly recommended house rental! Really comfortable beds!

This property and the location was beautiful! Darlene was so easy to work with and the house had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We traveled to Maine for a long overdue vacation with our parents and had the best time. The house is located in a beautiful, quiet area that's a short drive to anything you could want or need. We spent our time exploring the nearby cities and hiking around Acadia and Bar Harbor. We already miss it and cannot imagine how lovely the area is in the fall with the changing colors. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of Maine's coast.

My family and I had a wonderful weeklong vacation at Darlene’s. The house was beyond equipped with daily necessities and supplies and the host was great with communication. We spent a lot of family time on her beautiful outdoor deck watching the sunset and played many games in the screened in sun porch. Stockton Springs is a nice central location for day trips to Bar Harbor, Castine, Deer Isle, Belfast, and many others. We will definitely be back!

A Return to Maine
Family of four adults just spent 2 weeks at Fort Point Cove Cottage. Could not have made a better choice. The “cottage” had everything we needed. Kitchen well stocked. Grill for outdoor cooking. Comfortable beds. Large screened-in porch, cool even on the hottest days. Big screen TV for evening movies. A view of Fort Point Cove and the mouth of the Penobscot River. Privacy from neighbors. Bucksport, only minutes away, for all of the essentials. The perfect place to unwind.
We found FPCC an excellent location from which to explore Downeast. Camden, Rockport, Belfast, Acadia National Park, and Schoodic Point are all an easy drive for a day trip; we visited them all. Our longest drive for a day trip was to Boothbay Harbor, a 1.5 hours drive. Our recommendations: Young’s Lobster Pound in Belfast, Otter’s Waterfront Eatery in Castine, Big Chicken Barn Books for used books and antiques in Orland, downtown Camden (don’t miss Lily Lupine and Fern for wine; proprietor knows his stuff), and the Littlefield Gallery in Winter Harbor. No trouble in finding your own favorites.
The owner, Darlene, great to work with, was readily available for any and all questions or concerns; she checked in regularly by text to be sure we had everything we needed.
I recommend FPCC and will book it again in the future.

Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Darlene Duncan
My husband and I grew up and reside in Bucks County Pennsylvania. We have been vacationing in Maine for over 30 years and have established close ties and friendship to its people. I truly enjoy welcoming and hosting guests to our home, especially first time visitors to Maine. I am a registered nurse working for a large cardiology practice at Penn Medicine in Philadelphia. My husband works with industrial and artistic glass. He enjoys hunting and fishing and is looking forward to someday receiving his first moose permit. We are planning to retire June 2024 so we can move to Maine in 2025. Because we enjoy hosting guests, plans are being made to add a detached garage with an upstairs apartment in 2026.
Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade
I cannot express the openness and peacefulness one experiences while staying at Fort Point Cove Cottage. Stockton Springs houses its own lighthouse located in nearby Fort Point State Park, has its own local beaches and is centrally located along the coast: 40 miles to Ellsworth, Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Blue Hill and Rockland/Rockport area; 25 miles to Bangor and Camden Hills; and just a hop and a skip to Belfast, known for its wonderful shops and restaurants, Bucksport featuring Fort Knox and the beautiful Penobscot Narrows Bridge, Winterport for its brewery and winery and Searsport with its 8 miles of antique shopping, its Maritime Museum and Moose Point State Park.
O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

No doubt that summer is fantastic in the Mid-coast and Stockton Springs/Searsport area but, let's not forget our four season climate: Spring offers budding trees, blooming flowers and fresh maple syrup, Fall is filled with the vibrant changing colors of our abundant hardwood trees and the best time to enjoy fresh apple cider, Winter offers snowshoeing and cross-country skiing at Sears Island and many of the area parks, with downhill skiing nearby at the Camden Snow Bowl and Herman Mountain. Many of the Carriage Paths at Acadia National Park are also open for cross-country skiing or snowshoeing.
