About this property

A Charming Beachfront Cottage

Welcome!
In the quaint fishing village of Jonesport America, there lies one of the only white sandy beaches in Downeast Maine, Sandy River Beach.

From the Maine Rose cottage, you can witness the most beautiful sunrises on one of the most eastern points of the United States; you can listen to the seagull’s cry and the squeal of laughter on the beach. You can also enjoy the late afternoon summer sun as you enjoy your cocktail while your toes are in the sand and you can fall asleep in the evening listening to the surf and feeling the rhythm of its heart.

The Maine Rose Cottage is a 2 bedroom, 3/4 bath oceanfront escape either for a romantic get-away or a quiet family seeking the convenience of being on a private and rare white sandy beach. Bring your kayaks and hiking boots for your outdoor adventures in nature. This is NOT a party house, but rather a quaint cottage with quaint expectations.

Amenities include gas stove/oven and heat, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and fans. The master bedroom has a California King bed. The second bedroom has a queen size bed. There is also an inflatable twin mattress. Wi-fi.

Best of all, there are rocking chairs to read in as you watch the waves and the birds. There is an outdoor little deck with an Adirondack chair for your morning coffee. Outdoor grill and lobster/clam pot. Picnic table.

About the host

Hosted by Mark and Dawn Bechtold

Host profile image
Mark and Dawn Bechtold are recently retired and hail from the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Mark is an organizational psychologist and singer/songwriter. Dawn is an art educator/artist.
We are recently retired and have lived and worked abroad. We enjoy a quiet life with our interests in outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, gardening and farming. We enjoy our time on the beach with friends and good food.

Why they chose this property

This property is very special to our family. We are third generation owners of three eclectic cottages we have named The Maine Rose (for the larger main cottage), The Sweet Pea (middle cottage) and the third (little) cottage where we stay. The cottages were originally built around 1930 and were beautifully renovated in the 1960's. The Maine Rose was then gently used by family from RI for almost 50 years. My husband and I acted as care-takers of the property for a bit before we were able to purchase in 2011. The structures have maintained their integrity over the years as we continue to give them the love and care they deserve.
The cottages are in a quiet natural beach front setting, they are clean and comfortable and are the perfect escape for a restful, sun filled vacation.

What makes this property unique

The Maine Rose and Sweet Pea each boast a cathedral ceiling, letting in air and light. The cottages have more 'space and flow' because of the higher ceilings. We provide bedding, including sheets for each bed and limited kitchen/bath linens. Just pack your bags and hit the road!
