Enjoy a secluded waterfront vacation in West Bath when you stay at this cabin-style rental on your next New England getaway. With a wraparound deck and a private dock, this charming house is the ideal spot for a family reunion or a large group of friends. Whether you're watching a summer sunset over the water or warming your feet by the wood stove, you'll never want to leave.

The house is located on a quiet peninsula about 40 miles south of Augusta, tucked amongst the trees with a stunning view of the river and surrounding islands.

The inside has a cozy, rustic character throughout, paired with modern conveniences like WiFi, cable, and a DVD player. The downstairs living room features a wood stove, a writing desk, large windows, and plenty of comfortable seating to relax or play games.

The kitchen is fully equipped, with plenty of counter space for fixing large, delicious meals. You'll find both gas and charcoal grills for all your barbecuing desires.

In the summer, you can move outside to the porch, which is furnished with sofas, chairs, and tables of its own. It's also fully screened-in, so you don't need to worry about mosquitos or other pesky insects crashing the party. There's even a hammock out in the trees for those lazy afternoons.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms with three queen beds and three twin beds, sleeping nine guests altogether. With lamps, easy chairs, and dressers, the rooms have been elegantly furnished for maximum comfort. Please note that there is only one bathroom in the house. But it's a small price to pay for this pristine country setting.

If you're looking for a large, gorgeous home in a tranquil location, this is the rental for you. The house enjoys a privileged location in a quiet and respectful neighborhood and there are outdoor activities galore and plenty of room to simply kick back and relax. The dock gives you easy water access for fishing and swimming. You'll also be right next door to the Hamilton Audubon Sanctuary, a 93-acre wildlife preserve with phenomenal hiking trails, bird watching, and cross-country skiing.

This is the spot to get away from it all, so don't wait - book today.

This was the perfect quintessential Maine camp! Beautiful location right on the water was comfortable but rustic as expected. Lots of character and charm! We spent so much time enjoying the dock, swimming, and relaxing on the screened in porch. Highly recommend! Would definitely go back!

The front porch is wonderful, beautiful views, nice breeze , great place to hang and relax. We thought the shower might need a re-do and the steps from house going down to the dock as well.

The house is very campy. Perfect location. Very quiet. It only has one bathroom which can be tricky with 6 people. We loved it but we are very informal and used to summer camps. If you want all modern amenities this might not be the place for you.

We enjoyed our stay and found the owners provided numerous little helpful extras. The only somewhat significant challenge is the recurring 31 stairs' climb, but the reward is a great view.

Great screened in porch to enjoy the sunsets. Or you can take them in from the dock. House itself has been well loved over the years and is comfortable enough for our long weekend.

I’d like the homeowner to know that my family are currently trying to work with Vacasa to rectify the lack of a usable shower for the first day/night of our stay. I am being told that the shower was not in fact leaking because I shouldn’t have aimed the shower head at the door. I did not. On our first night I went to shower one of our young boys and within a few minutes the entire bathroom floor was close to an inch deep in leaking water. I stopped the shower immediately and contacted Vacasa. No one else was able to shower that evening or the next morning. This is completely unacceptable given the cost of booking this place. The following day I was told that a representative checked the shower and it did not leak. Here’s why - my husband lifted up the wooden shower mat and found an enormous clump of hair and debris stuck in the drain. It had clearly not been cleaned. When the shower ran, the water built up in the shower base, and began to leak out at the floor, not through the shower doors. It is likely there is a crack or insufficient calking at the shower pan, and judging by the wet wood and peeling paint on the floor this is not a new problem. If this was my house I would get the shower base replaced before the water damage wrecks the floor. I have reached out to Vacasa and asked for a partial refund for our first night since we had a house with no way of bathing. I am being told that they will not work with us on this issue. It is completely unacceptable.
