Rockport Harbor Cottage - Steps to Ocean and Town

Bright and immaculate cottage centrally located in Rockport village. Steps to the harbor, beaches, and some of Midcoast Maine's most acclaimed restaurants, yet privately situated atop a hill among centuries-old estates and homes. Enjoy a lobster bake on your expansive deck overlooking the Camden Hills and Rockport village. Take your coffee on the charming front porch after a morning stroll to the village to pick up fresh pastries. A rare combination of central location and privacy!

The cottage has been recently redecorated with new furnishings, bed linens, artwork, and housewares. The kitchen is fully equipped to accommodate any chef who wishes to take advantage of the bounty of local, delicious ingredients (many of which can be procured from the various specialty shops within walking distance of the house). The bedrooms are furnished with crisp high-end linens, and a sofa bed can be made up for extra guests. Dine indoors or out - there is seating for 6 people both in the dining room and on the deck. There is a new internet TV in the living room with access to Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu etc. (use your own login credentials), but there is so much to do, you might never turn it on! If necessary, there is a 2-car attached garage available for indoor parking. Two full bathrooms and a laundry are available for guest use. Although the lot is wooded, in the summer there is a sunny lawn with Adirondack chairs and a fire pit for lounging in the sun or s'mores in the evening. It's a magical spot!

The location truly can't be beat. This home is steps from the Rockport harbor park, which is a magical spot for a swim, a glass of wine at sunset, or for watching the impressive yachts come and go over a lunchtime picnic. There is a small beach that is perfect for littles, and at high tide the big kids (and adults) can jump off of the 20 foot stone wall into the crystal clear water below. You can launch your kayaks, canoes (or yachts) for a cruise around one of Maine's most beautiful harbors. The village is home to some of the area's best restaurants, cafes, and galleries - all a stone's throw from the house. The house is located on historic Amsbury Hill, home to stately old Maine sea captains' houses. Your neighbors' homes are pristinely maintained with gorgeous summer gardens. You can walk, ride your bike or - if you must - drive to bustling downtown Camden a few miles away while glimpsing grand old waterfront estates along the way.

CLARIFICATION: This property only has beds for 4 people. The system erroneously states 6. Additionally, if you plan to bring a dog, please discuss with the owner in advance. This property isn't suitable for multiple large dogs.

Rockport Getaway
Fabulous little cottage which was perfect for our group of 4 adults. The property owner is two doors down the street and is very helpful. The Guest Book was great with excellent restaurant recommendations and it was written with such a sense of humor I laughed out loud reading it. Thank you Caroline. It was a wonderful visit to Maine.

Want to Fall In Love with Maine?
Walking distance of Rockport Harbor. If you want to fall in love with Maine, do 2 things. Go to the harbor and just mosey around ... and ... drive up to top of lookout mountain at Camden State Park and get a breathtaking view of the entire area around Rockport!

Rockport in September 2021
This cottage home is a hidden gem a short walk above Rockport Harbor. The house is actually lived in for part of the year so it was completely stocked like you would expect. My traveling companion and I are both 70+ and we had no accessibility issues. The house was spotlessly clean, the beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of towels and blankets for the chilly evenings. Coffee on the elevated deck in back of the house was especially nice in the mornings. this home away from home exceeded expectations. The owners live two houses down the street and were nice people and easy to deal with. No issues and we had an all around excellent experience. Recommended most highly.

Beautiful spot
My wife, 8 year old son, and I had a great time here this past week. The owners couldn't have been nicer or more helpful, the house was perfect, and the location was amazing. Really enjoyed breakfast on the deck, the nearby beach, the recommended restaurants, and the proximity to so many fun things. Only minor disappointment was that there was no fire pit, though it was in the description on VRBO. Not a big deal, though. Highly recommend staying here!
