Gorgeous water views, cozy and spacious! Walk to restaurants /pubs & beaches!!

This perfect three-bedroom/two-full bath home is in the heart of the village of Lubec, Maine.

Watch the 23 foot tides come and go! This lovely vintage home features an enclosed sun porch with a 180-degree view of the Narrows, FDR International Bridge and Water Street's picturesque historic buildings. A piece of your heart will never leave!

Fabulous - house and location both great

Perfect getaway from the hustle and the bustle (and the heat). If you're looking for hikes, small town vibe in a place with great hosts, look no further. The house was clean, had everything needed and Tammy was great as a host. Gave plenty of recommendations for activities and even an extra scoop of ice cream from their shop nearby! Would love to return for another visit sometime in the future.

Quaint coastal charm

The hosts were responsive, kind, and completely accommodating. The house was nicely stocked with essentials, plenty of linens, and an assortment of games to play at the generous dining table. The location was nearly perfect with a great view from the sunroom - our favorite spot from morning to night. If you are looking for a quiet getaway yet being located in the town’s center, then this place is for you. We are happy we chose to stay here.

Very Nice Accommodations

We really enjoyed our stay in your house while visiting Lubec. The house was very clean, comfortable and nicely updated inside to make it feel welcoming. What we really liked was being able to walk up town to the restaurants and the fishing wharf and to wake up in the morning and look out the window at an international bridge connecting Canada and the U.S. OK I thought it was cool. Thanks for the stay!

as pleasant as always

This was our third year spending time in this comfortable home in the fall. The sunroom is always pleasant, morning, noon, or, night, rain or shine. This year we were excited to explore five of the eleven new Cobscook shores parks, as well as return to some of our favorite nature preserves. The location is ideal!

Loved Lubec

Clean, comfortable, had everything we needed. Perfect location for walking around town, to the beach--farmer's market and ice cream in the front yard! So much to do of beauty and interest in the area--despite fog we did it all. Coastal trail at Quoddy Head, Roosevelt's Cottage, and Cobscook Shores a must--as well as lobster in the sunroom! We met many lovely locals, Monica of Monica's Chocolates being one. Thanks Tammy for everything!

Tranquil Location and Great Home

We really enjoyed our stay in Lubec. The house was amazing, the views were incredible. Everything you needed for a quiet, peaceful, and relaxing vacation. The host was very good at answering our questions as we had never been to Maine before and her suggestions for things to do were great. Came to see the leaves changing and Mother Nature did not disappoint. The house was very clean and had everything we needed from a fully equipped kitchen to great internet, to an overall comfortable furnishing. I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Lubec.

Cozy Home In Great Location

Downtown with the shops, restaurants and Lubec Brewery all just steps away. The home is super comfortable. A sun room with a great water view where we had coffee in the morning, wine in the evening. King sized bed piled high with quilts. Super responsive heat to take off the overnight chill. Fresh lobsters a walk away, and a pot in the kitchen! And close to all kinds of wilderness area including Campobello. We'll be back!

Great family getaway

We love the coast of Maine but don’t enjoy crowds. Lubec was the perfect vacation spot for our family of 4 (two boys age 10 and 12) to hike, explore, and reconnect. The host was lovely and communicated everything we needed to know about the rental. The house was charming, very clean and cozy. We enjoyed the well equipped kitchen to make our meals and appreciated that everyone had their own space for sleeping at night. I especially liked the screen porch for reading. The home is located in town and is a quick walk to the coffee shop and restaurants. It’s also a short jaunt to Mowry Beach where we beachcombed every evening. Thank you for our stay, it was exactly what we were looking for!

Lubec Home

Easy access to house. Owner available if needed and kept in touch to see if there were any problems. Everything we needed was provided Several rooms for different projects going at once but we used and loved the sun room with the view of the bridge to Canada and we used that several times. Lubec is a walking town but also lots of trails, well maintained in the area. My favorite area of Maine.

Get out of the car and walk!

This very comfortable home not only has a lovely view from the porch but is also located within easy walking distance of the entire town of Lubec. Although we had driven to and through Lubec numerous times in the past, walking allowed us to discover new parts of town, including Mowry Beach preserve, and to enjoy beers, dinner, and music at Lubec Brewing Company. We also learned that there's enough good fresh, local, healthy food in town that we won't need to pack a cooler as we usually do for trips to this part of the state. We hope to stay at this home for at least one long weekend in Lubec every year from now on, but in the future, we'll schedule our trips to include the Saturday morning farmers' market across the road May through November.

About the host

Hosted by Tammy - Owner/Manager

Host profile image
Tammy moved from CT to Downeast Maine in 2012. She fell in love with it's coastal rugged beauty, and serene way of life. She and her life-long friend and business partner, Sandra, purchased the home on 34 Pleasant Street. Through this perfect location for a summer rental, she hoped others would be able to experience the same unspoiled beauty in the town she calls home. The property also has a small building that has become a wonderful Gift & Ice cream Shop that Tammy owns! Make sure to stop in and say hello!

Why they chose this property

The home was built in 1889. It has all of the charm of that period without sacrificing comfort or space.

A fully updated galley kitchen that exudes rural charm, gives you all of the comforts of home, along with the peace and serenity that only Downeast Maine can provide. Beautiful weather May through Oct.

What makes this property unique

While retaining its' quiet historic charm, it is literally at Campobello Island's door step, looking at the rushing, tidal Lubec Narrows, and is only steps from all downtown amenities/restaurants and pubs! As if things couldn't get any better, there is even a local farmer's/vendor market on Saturday's from 10-12 during June to October literally adjacent to the house! You have to see it and experience it to believe it! Give yourself the vacation of a lifetime and book with us today!!
