My friends and I just loved our cottage on the bay! The place was so cozy and comfortable. Our host was immediately responsive to our needs. We had everything we needed in the way of amenities. The location was great! Every where we drove the road sides were ablaze with beautiful Fall color. I would highly recommend this property.

This cottage was a delight for our week in the Belfast area! Clean, quiet, the option to be cool inside, sit on a screened in porch or out on the deck to enjoy the view and the full moon. Very convenient to Belfast and surrounding areas.

Super cute little cottage with beautiful view. Two bedroom (3 queens total) one bath. Had everything we needed. Small but cozy. Shower was awesome. Great water pressure and temps. Beds comfy. Lots of pillows. Small fans for each bedroom were perfect. Decor is beachy colors and very pretty. Big tv with streaming services. Good WiFi. We had the best girls getaway.

We had a marvelous time at this cottage during our stay. Our host, Pamela, went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was the BEST it could be. The cottage was so cozy and comfortable for the two of us. The location was close enough to town to pop in and pick up supplies or grab a bite to eat, yet far enough away for it to be quiet and relaxing. The grounds around the cottage are very well kept. An added bonus to this location is the proximity of the bay to the cottage. It was fun to walk down to the water each day and stroll along the shoreline. We would definitely come back and stay here again! There is a sign hanging above the couch which I believe aptly describes this wonderful place. It says "welcome to our beach house...clear your mind and find your soul".

This cottage was perfect for my party of 3 visiting the Maine coast. Wonderful view of ocean/bay! Very clean and cozy- plenty of blankets and towels etc. This was close to things to do like Moose State Park and Belfast shops and restaurants. Access to beach walks was 1 min stroll across the lawn. The owner was responsive and this place was so special. We loved sitting out on the screened porch. Thank you!
