Welcome to Rockland and Lamorna Cottage!
This 1880s home has been lovingly restored. The cottage offers a true getaway on a quiet South End street. It's a short walk to all Rockland has to offer - festivals, shopping, world-class museums, the water-front, several restaurants and the small public beach.

There is also a large dining room with seating for 6, a gourmet fully-equipped kitchen with island, a 3/4 Bath (shower) and a laundry closet with full-size washer and dryer.
On the second floor, there are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a queen bed and a twin. Both rooms have side tables, bureaus, table lamps and ceiling fans. There is also a full bath off the second floor hall with a deep soaking tub.
Off the kitchen is a deck with outdoor seating, a picnic table, gas grill and a small garden. The front yard is a sunny place to hang out on the Adirondack chairs.
The number of guests is limited to 4 plus up to 2 children (there is a pull-out bed in the Dining Room and a large couch in the Living Room). There are hardwood floors throughout.

Spacious, cozy place to stay in Rockland
My family really enjoyed staying at this extremely clean, spacious and lovely house. Furniture and beds were very comfortable. 1st floor bathroom with walk-in shower was great for my parents. Nice touches and decor. Kitchen is like new. Easy walk to Main Street, museums, restaurants and shops as well as a Walgreens. Short drive to grocery stores. Owner was quick to respond, very friendly and helpful. We were sad to have to pack up and leave. Staying here made our trip so much more enjoyable than your average hotel room - highly recommend!!!

Perfect for our Vacation
We were looking for a clean, safe comfortable and centrally located 2 bedroom/2bath VRBO for 2 couples. The Beautiful South End met our need. The home is recently renovated and well stocked home. We traveled north to Acadia and south to Portland. We also enjoyed visiting Camden, Samoset and Monhegan. The hostess was very responsive to questions. The only we issue we had outside control of hostess was hot temperatures with no air conditioning. They had fans to allow for very comfortable temp. at night. We were not there during the day.

Nice house in a great location
This was a really nice, well maintained and equipped house, conveniently located a short walk to Harbor Park. We stayed during Lobster Fest, and it was perfect to be able to walk to the festival every day. There were nice restaurants and little shops conveniently located within walking distance, and a short drive to the grocery store. It was a nice quiet neighborhood. While there's no A/C, there are plenty of floor and window fans, which generally were enough to make the place comfortable in the height of the summer heat. We would definitely recommend for anyone looking to spend some time in Rockland.
