About this property

Rustic log cottage, River-view, Pet-friendly, Downeast Maine

Nestled in the heart of Downeast Maine, our cottages are a peaceful retreat. Our 7 cottages, along with our house, are located on the same large property in Edmunds Twp, Maine, United States. The cottages are in a wooded area with privacy maintained for each.

Built in 1945, with additions in the early 50's, this single-level log cottage features a vaulted ceiling with a field-stone fireplace and a woodstove for heat. Complimentary firewood is provided in an outdoor woodshed. The cottage offers a cozy kitchen and dining area, a living room, and bathroom with shower. There are two bedrooms, one with 2 twin beds and one with a twin and a double bed (sleeps up to 5).

Linens and towels are provided. The screened porch overlooks the river near the rips. It is a beautiful sound to listen to and even fall asleep to. This cottage is very private and located on its own road, nestled in the woods on the bank of the river. There is an outdoor charcoal grill and picnic table. Please note, this cottage does NOT have WiFi.

Edmunds Township is in a very rural area within 30 minutes of a variety of coastal towns and activities. The property boasts a man-made pond and the Dennys River. We are also only a few hundred yards from the Sunrise Trail.

The closest stores are in Pembroke, a 6-mile drive. There is a Dollar General and a Freshies. These have some groceries and takeout options. The closest sit-down restaurant is 12 miles from us in Perry, but most are located in the towns of Machis, Calais, Eastport and Lubec which are a 20 to 30-mile drive. Many restaurants and stores close early here, so it's best to call ahead for hours if you are planning a later arrival.

All of the cottages have a kitchen so cooking for yourself is a money-saving option. Coming from the north, the last stop for groceries is Calais and coming from the south, the last stop for groceries is Machias. Both are about 25 miles from us. There are also grocery stores in Eastport and Lubec which are just over 20 miles.

Fantastic Hideaway!
I wish that we had more time in our little cottage! We had such a lovely stay here at Robinson's Cottages. Were greeted with a very warm welcome and clear directions to our cottage, which was kitted out with everything we needed (and didn't!). The surrounding area of the cottage was also lovely - some small rapids behind the cabin created the most amazing atmosphere for sleeping, not to mention that the beds were sooooooo comfortable. Only potential downside is that there isn't much within a few miles for restaurants or drug stores. It didn't impact us at all, we were well prepared and also didn't mind a short drive to one of the nearby towns for some fun. Would return in a heartbeat!

The cottage was rustic and comfortable. The location was beautiful and private. It was just what our family needed. The kayaks, fire pit and a screened in porch made for some productive conversations and some fun memories!

Best location
On the river, with a perfect view from the very comfortable screened in porch. Very private, with the falls just below the front of the camp. There was a fireplace, a wood stove and an outdoor firepit. No charge for good dry wood, no charge to use canoes and kayaks. Who does that anymore? Thank you.
