Starfish Cottage is a wonderfully appointed, welcoming and comfortable home away from home. We stayed 2 weeks and loved every moment there and around the island. Most businesses were closing or closed, and Lubec ME offered nice alternatives. Our host was awesome, and we would highly recommend any of their properties.

Fellow travelers, look no further... this is the place! The place to get away from it all, and to find the peace and glory of God's creation embracing you from first light to glowing sunset. From the cottage you can walk to a working fishing harbor, a deserted beach with shells and sea glass, and to one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world. Or, you can just sit on one of the expansive porches and wait for the whales, eagles and porpoises to float by to greet you! Our family of four spread out through this pretty cottage and enjoyed plenty of space… One teenager claimed the loft for sleeping the whole time, and the adults enjoyed the quite roomy master bedroom where we woke up to gorgeous morning light over the islands. Loved visiting with Dennis who is attentive and fun to talk to. Loved being off the grid, and we think you will, too!

Margaret and I were so thankful to host their family who were all very polite! We highly recommend them and her family to other hosts! They left the cottage in perfect condition and treated it as if it were there own! Cleaner was impressed also at what good shape they left the Starfish Cottage by the Sea! Take care and hope to see you in the future!

Our stay was fantastic! The cottage was clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything we needed and more. The location is peaceful and beautiful with stunning water views—we saw seals and porpoises almost every day right from the property, and even spotted a whale on our final morning!The yard was great for our family: the kids loved the swings and hammock, and there was plenty of open space for us to toss a football around. Evenings were spent around the fire pit or relaxing in the screened-in deck. During the day, we enjoyed local highlights like the lighthouse, Roosevelt Campobello International Park, and scenic forest trails. Plus, the selection of indoor games kept us entertained.Note for larger groups: There is only one bathroom, so plan accordingly, but it worked fine for us.The Starfish Cottage made our trip to the island truly special—a wonderful place to stay!

This is our second time at one of Dennis's properties, We had hoped to go back to Whale of a View because it was so suited to our needs, and we took Starfish because that was our option. It was meant to be, as it was even MORE suited to our needs. From swinging buoys and a loft for our 11 year old granddaughter to a gated deck for our 1 year old granddaughter, various places to dine, a variety of seating areas outside making relaxing easy, and a hammock because it belongs we were very happy. The kitchen had a large variety of cookware and dishes plus a blender for my smoothie. However, I might add a knife sharpener to the mix :). We did have one concern on the first night, Dennis got back to me right away, and the answer arrived in the morning. We had a couple of lovely chats with Dennis when he came by to water the flowers. All in all we were very happy. Thanks Dennis for a home away from home to rest between visits from on island family.

A pleasant place to stay on Campobello Island

Lovely views from the cottage of the ocean and the sunset. We enjoyed seeing the lobster boat come close to the shore each morning, and having our breakfast in the screened porch. We enjoyed our stay.

This property was as magical as Campobello Island itself. The cottage is designed to look and feel as if you are on a ship. Looking out the grand windows to the water below it’s easy to imagine you are indeed floating at sea. We look forward to returning to this place for more exploring and hiking on the island and relaxing at Starfish, our comfy, cozy home away fr home

Beautiful cottage

After a wonderful stay at the Starfish Cottage a few years ago, I came back with my mom for a second visit. The cottage is perfect and well-maintained -- the views from the main bedroom, kitchen, and deck can't be beat. We were greeted on our first morning by a bald eagle in the backyard and thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay. Looking forward to coming back again.

A Beautiful Location

Starfish cottage was a perfect jumping off point for many enjoyable hikes in Campobello park. The park trails are well maintained and well marked. We also found the shop keepers friendly and helpful. Just wish the weather could have been nicer so we could have enjoyed the beautiful screened porch!

The oceanfront Starfish Cottage is a fantastic spot to enjoy the ocean views, breezes, wildlife and convenience of its location which is only one mile from the famous Head Harbour Lighthouse and the Head Harbour Wharf. We are so glad George and his wife enjoyed the cottage and the wonderful Island of Campobello and highly recommend them to other hosts!

Picturesque

What a wonderful stay! The cottage was a beautiful place to stay. My Mom and I enjoyed waving to all the boats going by and just relaxing on the deck. The beauty from the deck makes it hard to go see the rest of the island! Seeing whales, dolphins, seals and bald eagles everyday of our visit put this over the top! The sunsets were amazing too! Can not wait to go back!!

Fun girls trip

Perfect!!! The cottage was more than we could have imagined. The view was spectacular, and we saw whales from the back yard. There was something for everyone from ages 10 to 60. I would encourage anyone to book their stay at the starfish cottage.

Peaceful quiet paradise

Lovely stay in a quaint and tastefully decorated cottage with everything needed for a relaxing visit. The master bedroom views are fabulous and sunsets are indescribable. I may have lucked out with such sunny and warm weather in later September as that was perfect also. Plenty to do in terms of relaxing, reading, exploring nearby particularly Roosevelt Campobello International Park which I visited three times. Fun Trip!
