Fabulous decor and furnishings
We enjoyed staying at the Brooklin house. It was beautiful and comfortable, plus a beautiful view. Our daughter got married at nearby Lookout Inn and had her bridesmaids and her join us and get ready for the wedding there and did her “first look” out on the point. Wonderful set up for that. For the wedding it was nice to be close and have a spacious place for our friends.

Why they chose this property

Water settings have been one of my greatest loves and design influences
for decades – they soothe my soul. Oceans and bays, lakes and rivers
particularly, are the places I’m drawn to most and where I find I’m most
at home in my work. I have developed an aesthetic that is described by
many as: “Crisp, clean lines with a fresh color palette - where luxurious
modern meets whimsical coastal.”

Walking out to the point and standing inside the home looking out at the breathtaking views of Herrick
Bay, was a sensory overload that literally made my heart sing and my
creative juices flow. I knew this was where I wanted to be to create my
next destination vacation home.

What makes this property unique

World-renowned for its wooden boat building, maritime history and
exquisite natural beauty, Brooklin became one of the areas I visited over and
over again in search of my next project. Brooklin is home to the Wooden Boat School, the Eggemoggin Reach annual regatta and many boat building businesses. Even the Wooden Boat Magazine is published from here and you don't have to be an accomplished sailor or a boating enthusiast just to enjoy watching people simply "Messing about in boats" and they're everywhere in these parts!

Brooklin House on Herrick Bay is a stunning property in a setting that will literally take your breath away. It is close enough to places such as Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Camden, Castine, Stonington, Ellsworth, Penobscot Bay, Belfast and even Portland, that draw crowds of holiday-makers year after year. The unique benefits that Brooklin has, compared to many other destinations on the north east coast of Maine, it's easy to get around and you can breathe and completely unwind here! You don't find yourself caught up in endless lines or traffic, day after day, yet you're within easy reach of all that may attract you to this area and its natural bounty.

Brooklin House has been lovingly restored and modernized for your comfort
and relaxation. Attention has been paid to luxury and the details at this property. As the world begins to open up again and we yearn to travel, explore and be at one with nature and those we love again, we believe Brooklin House presents an outstanding opportunity and venue to celebrate from.
