About this property

Village Cottage with an Amazing Water View

Located in Historic Castine Village with spectacular views across the harbor to Cape Rosier and of the grand schooners coming in under full sail.

This charming, fully equipped cottage is just sixty feet from the waters edge and has easy steps leading down to the beach.

A unique blend of a small New England town with a common and seafaring village, Castine is exceptionally picturesque. Many of its homes date back to the American Revolution and the streets remain lined with majestic, hundred year old Elm trees.

Not many towns can boast more in the way of recreation, cultural activities and community services, yet remain so unspoiled by commercial tourism. There are no traffic lights and no fast food chains but amenities include sailing, kayaking, golf, tennis, the Maine Maritime Academy pool and fitness facilities, churches, a library, restaurants, museums, a small grocery store, a doctors office and musical concert on the this just a short stroll from Moonrise Anchorage.

One Queen bed, one double bed, two twins and a queen size sleeper sofa. Large deck facing the harbor with a charcoal grill and plenty of outdoor seating and an umbrella to provide shade. Private beach just steps from the front door.

Everything one could need for a spectacular vacation!

Castine Cottage
Overall very good stay. You just can’t beat the view and the access to the water right out the front door. Everything was very clean and organized. The front deck was great to use at night and during the day. My only critique would be that the bed could be a bit more comfortable but overall everything was as expected for a cottage on the shore. My family and I had a great time.
