A proposito di questa casastruttura in affitto
Morningside. Waterfront home with seasonal dock and float, Pet friendly!
Situato su Gun Point Road nella pittoresca Harpswell e arretrato dal trambusto del traffico estivo, "Morningside" attende la tua famiglia in vacanza.
Situato a 25 'dal bordo dell'acqua, è il rifugio perfetto per coloro che desiderano pescare, godersi l'acqua, esplorare le isole e le rive vicine o semplicemente rilassarsi sul ponte godendosi la vista.
Che si tratti della quieta serenità di un'alba mattutina, del sorgere della luna serale o di una seduta sul ponte di casa che può eventualmente vedere aquile calve, falchi pescatori, foche, gabbiani o gabbiani, la vista è sempre in sintonia con la natura madre.
Le ampie finestre interne dal piano terra e l'area "OPEN LOFT" al 2 ° piano offrono una splendida vista sulle insenature locali e sulle insenature della baia di Quahog da ogni spazio est della casa.
L'interno di "Morningside" è stato completamente rinnovato nel corso dell'ultimo anno.
Il piano terra ha un bagno di dimensioni standard, cucina con tutte le pentole necessarie agli ospiti (quando non mangiano fuori), camera da letto (letto matrimoniale), una sala da pranzo con un tavolo per sei persone e una zona soggiorno con mobili che invita solo comfort e relax.
La zona soppalcata al piano superiore è composta da due camere da letto "OPEN LOFT / AIR". È necessario attraversare la prima camera da letto (letto matrimoniale) per accedere alla camera da letto principale. Un divisorio portatile è fornito per la privacy "a vista" tra i due.
La spaziosa camera da letto principale soppalcata (con un letto king size) offre splendide viste da ogni finestra e ha una porta che si apre su un balcone dove gli ospiti possono uscire e ascoltare gli uccelli al mattino o alla sera.
La camera da letto (letto matrimoniale) in cima alle scale si affaccia direttamente ad est e consente agli ospiti di svegliarsi con bellissime albe.
Tra queste due camere da letto a soppalco c'è un bagno di dimensioni standard splendidamente rinnovato.
La cucina di "Morningside" ha tutte le nuove lavastoviglie (2018), forno per tostapane, microonde e macchina per caffè americano.
La lavanderia ha una lavatrice e asciugatrice full size.
C'è anche WiFi, TV via cavo e una griglia a propano su cui cucinare.
Le opinioni e i servizi di "Morningside" non sono l'unica cosa che lo rende invitante.
Ti piace nuotare, pescare, andare in kayak o in canoa? Puoi fare tutte queste cose dal molo privato di "Morningside"
Pesce per stripers, sgombri o pollack della baia dal molo.
Porta il tuo kayak (o noleggiale da Seaspray Kayaks o Ring's Marina) o in canoa e lancialo dal molo per un facile accesso per esplorare le isole e le insenature intorno a Gun Point Cove, Quahog Bay o nel vicino porto di Cundy. I kayak mostrati nella foto online non sono forniti.
Ci sono molte cose da fare ed esplorare sia ad Harpswell che nella regione del Midineast del Maine. Opuscoli di molte aziende e attrazioni locali, compresi i sentieri escursionistici nelle vicinanze, sono disponibili presso "Morningside".
Quindi, sia che tu scelga di rilassarti o di esplorare la zona (via terra o via mare) che soggiorna presso "Morningside" ti offre la possibilità di rendere indimenticabile la tua vacanza in famiglia e un luogo in cui tornare anno dopo anno.

Would love to stay in this house again. The views are amazing.

House is perfectly located for a low-key, relaxing vacation. It’s well stocked and very clean. We loved sitting out on the deck and just enjoying the view. Definitely plan to return!

We had a great time staying at Sebascodegan Island! The porch overlooking the water is beautiful and the house was very clean and well stocked. It’s a very quiet and peaceful property and we’d love to come back sometime.
5.0 / 5.0
This property is close enough to places to visit but is a quiet residential setting. The deck and spectacular view is what sold it for us. We brought 2 medium dogs who spent most of the time at the house on the deck. The property manager is available and responsive.

A very special property.

When we got there the plugs along one wall were not working. The property manager came and brought us extension cords to plug in lamp and electronics.
The stove in kitchen should be replaced. Vent hood was nasty with grease etc. and one burner didn’t work on outdated stove. The burners looked pretty bad.
This is a beautiful place and we enjoyed our stay but just needs some care.

The house on Gun Point Road has beautiful views from almost every room. It's just gorgeous. We didn't want to leave. There are a few steps to the first floor, then one Queen bedroom on the first floor, in case someone in your party has trouble with stairs.
The house was immaculate, beds were all comfortable, towels and linens were provided. The house is about 20 minutes away from Downtown Brunswick, an easy drive to get dinner or attend an activity. We were hoping we could kayak, but off-season they aren't provided. We called an adventure company to took a kayak tour, but unfortunately, they never returned the call. Recommend calling ahead if you want to do things in the off-season. There are a few restaurants that are open off-season, but many of then either only open for dinner or lunch. Or open only Thursday - Sunday. We ate at Josh's twice while we were there. The Seafood Chowder was excellent, service was great. That said, we loved the house so much that we ate most of our meals there. The host was wonderful to work with and very quick to respond.
There are quite a few hiking trails, and the Escape Room was a lot of fun. There is a really neat General Store on the way into Brunswick that had almost everything we needed.
5.0 / 5.0
This is an excellent property that lives up to its name with truly serene and stunning sunrises. Tucked away on a beautiful, little bay, there are plenty of scenic areas to explore within a short drive in all directions.

David curated a wonderful experience for folks looking to stay in Maine out of Portland, and by the water.
Well equipped kitchen & house, on the water, and an excellent host!
5.0 / 5.0
We really enjoyed our stay at Morningside. It was a very peaceful and private location right on Gun Point Cove.
The house is exactly as pictured. Felt very much like we were in a cool treehouse with a view of the water. The house was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The balcony was our favorite spot, where we spent hours watching the water and feeling the gentle ocean breeze. It was the perfect setting for sipping my morning coffee and unwinding with a glass of wine in the evening.
If looking for a quiet, peaceful retreat, I would recommend this place.

We had a great week staying at Morningside. The house and deck were great and the view was incredible. Very private and quiet area. The kitchen was well-equipped. The beds were comfortable. The open sleeping area on the second floor wasn’t ideal, but worked okay for us.
4.0 / 5.0
Nice place right on the water. Two of the bedrooms were upstairs with no privacy between them so just know that. Beautiful views and well stocked with games, books, etc. Kitchen needs updated and silverware was rusted. Still, overall, a nice place to see the Maine coast.

Lovely property, loved the view, dock and inlet. Awesome kayaking, paddle boarding and just hanging out. Dave J was very responsive to any issues.
5.0 / 5.0
It was our family's first time to Maine and we didn't know where to stay. We chose this place based on (1) Centrality to everything we wanted to see, and (2) the pics online. It definitely did NOT disappoint. The view was stunning. We saw bald eagles outside our window! Starting the day on the deck was amazing!
We had a family issue before arrival which forced us to delay our trip for a day... communication with David was seamless and very helpful. The house is well-equipped with everything you need (including a pot to boil your own lobsters!)
Just one thing that's not apparent from the listing... two of the bedrooms are upstairs and open concept... they offer little privacy. This was not an issue for us as it was just our family of four... but if you're bringing several adults, you should be aware.
We loved this place and would definitely stay here again if travels ever bring us back to Maine!

Eagles, seals, beautiful view. House needs upgrades. Stove rusty. Silverware rusty. Inside fridge has unstable shelves and drawers. Also needed to clean pans before use. Otherwise a wonderful stay.

Great time spent on the Harpswell coast at the Morningside VRBO rental. We had our coffee in the Adirondack chairs each morning. The house came equipped with everything we needed from fresh clean linens and towels to plenty in the kitchen to make amazing homemade dinners. We'd definitely come back again.
5.0 / 5.0
This house was all we hoped it would be. The views are exceptional!! The house was very clean and comfortable. We chose an off season so the road in was quite muddy, but thankfully we had a 4 wheel drive and had no problems. We even got a little snow which we were hoping for. Looking forward to another stay here in the future.
3.0 / 5.0
The views from this property are wonderful and water access is excellent. Plenty of glass on the water side of the house allows for great views from almost every room. Beautiful master bedroom opens up to an overlook of the lower level.
The property is in need of some updates to keep up with the times. The property manager (David) states that the owner is planning significant renovation this off season, which is exciting. David was very responsive to deal with.

We loved our peaceful stay at this oasis from real work/life. The eagles are amazing and the view of Casco Bay is something I will treasure forever. David- the property manager is amazingly responsive but also so knowledgeable about the Harpswell area. He has a lot of talents! Thank you for a peaceful respite and a real break. Tim and Amy Shiley

Great location, wonderful views and comfortable accommodations.
5.0 / 5.0
The location is spectacular, decor beautiful, and very clean, well kept house. We stay in vrbos all the time and we loved how well lighted the house is. The upstairs worked very well for us, with our daughter taking the queen bed. The sunrises are beautiful, house is bathed in light and sitting out on the deck is very peaceful.
We liked exploring the area, Baileys Island, Orrs island, Harpswell area, drove to Old Orchard beach, Boothbay is spectacular! Highly recommend a day trip there.

The house has great living spaces and deck areas to enjoy the gorgeous view. The house could benefit from a general update and amenities.

A second stay as wonderful as the first.
We loved the house last year so much. This year, we knew the area well and we also appreciated the small improvements around the house.

We stayed as a home base to look at the area/houses as we are looking to move to Maine. The house was perfect. Clean, great location, nice neighbors, and did you see the views?!?! The main living space and primary make you feel like you are in a tree house. Just lovely.

Stunning
This is a very comfortable, bright, clean home with an incredible view of nature. What a delight it was to observe seals, loons, bald eagles, common eider, an owl, black birds, chickadees, and a hummingbird from the view inside the house.
What fun it was to pick up live lobster at Erica’s Seafood, cook them in the kitchen, and eat them in front of that glorious view. They were so yummy!
The kitchen is fully stocked and lovely to work in. It has a window with the pretty sunset light streaming in.
The linens in this home have lobsters or a map of the local area printed on them. What a pleasant surprise! They are clean and comfortable.
The master bedroom has additional clerestory windows where the full moon shines it’s light inside.
I love this home very much and am so grateful I was given the opportunity to stay in it. I hope to return.
Thank you

Excellent stay
Very clean, nice linens, very comfortable home. If you’re visiting in the winter, an SUV is a must. The road was very soft with the freeze/thaw pattern we experienced during our visit. The neighboring properties are very close—so not much privacy, not an issue for our winter visit since they were uninhibited, but would be a consideration if staying during peak months.

The View. The location. All good.
We had a great time. The house was clean and easy. No complaints at all. Thank you.

Beautiful October week
The property had everything we needed and was in a nice quiet location. There are multiple lobster pots and a well-stocked kitchen with pantry essentials, spices and paper goods. We did a lot of cooking and baking in the house and the only thing I couldn't find was a potato masher and a pie dish, but we made do.
The beds and couch are comfortable, the linens clean and the house was spacious enough for our small family group of 4 adults, 1 child and 1 dog. We used the upstairs 2 bedrooms as a "suite" with our son sleeping in the queen and my husband & I taking the king. I will say if you're not an early riser, this might not be the house for you - we went to bed most nights between 9-10 and were up at 6 or 6:30 am to see the sunrise.
The views have to be seen in person, the photos don't do it justice! The deck and balcony are both wonderful for viewing the water and wildlife or just relaxing; we didn't use the grill as it was chilly most of our stay but could see that being a really nice space for outdoor dining. We used the provided binoculars and scope in the dining room to watch a pair of bald eagles fishing and sitting on the treetops a few times, along with watching the loons, cormorants and mallards.
We spent our days hiking, kayaking and exploring locally (Gurnet Trading Co. and Zach's Country Store provided most of what we needed nearby). Plenty of trails nearby and not a far drive to the Boothbay, Freeport and Portland areas (we visited the Boothbay Railway Village with our 5 year old and he loved it). Cook's Lobster & Ale House out on Bailey Island was the cherry on top of our week for a last-night dinner out. (Note - some places were closed or not keeping typical hours because of a combination of the season winding down/ending and short-staffing related to COVID-19, so call ahead.)
We rented canoes and kayaks from Seaspray in Brunswick who delivered and picked up. The floating dock was still in mid-October but someone did come by at one point to put it away for the winter - luckily one of us was at home and let them know we'd be there til the end of the week. The water was typically pretty calm and the tide shift isn't drastic, but did get choppy on breezier days.
Just a couple of things I wish the house had - a fire pit, for sitting outside on those chilly fall nights, and a gate on the deck for dogs & kids (the entire deck is enclosed with a railing except for some steps leading down to the backyard).

Nice house with great views
Our family of 4 adults had a great time in this house. It was smaller and older than we expected based on the pictures but had everything we needed. Our host, David, was a pleasure to work with and very accommodating. We especially enjoyed the location and the views from the deck. The house in directly on the water with lovely views of the inlet. Every morning, we had our coffee outside and watched a family of eagles that lived in a tree just across the water from us. What fun we had watching them hunt for fish.
5.0 / 5.0
Everything and more than we hoped for
Beautiful home, spectacular views, well stocked pantry- really everything we needed! This was our first attempt at renting a VRBO. Now we are spoiled! Thank you, David!

Those views!
We had an excellent time at Morningside. The views, the views, the views! The house was nicely stocked with the sorts of things needed on vacation, and the property manager was responsive to our questions leading up to our vacation.
He mentioned the possibility of upgrades to the property in the future, which may address a couple of the small things we'd change. (The king mattress wasn't horrible, but it wasn't comfy, either, and the wire closet system in the upstairs bathroom needs to be swapped out for solid shelves—it's impossible to keep those wire racks clean, especially in a moist area like a bathroom.)
But towels and blankets and pillows were plentiful. The kitchen was well-stocked with all sorts of implements and dishes. You see only one closer neighbor from the place. And again, those views, views, views!
The property has a couple of terraced areas to sit and look out at the spectacular scenery, including two levels of dock area, which worked perfectly for relaxing, reading, painting, and watching the local wildlife. We saw jumping fish, cormorants, loons, and a couple of neighborhood eagles who often flew right over the house, and who amused us with their ineffectual fishing on the opposite shore.
Did I mention the views? We saw gorgeous sunrises, sun shimmering off the water, breakers way out at sea, the moon and stars aplenty, and even a rainbow.
A fantastic place!

Beautiful oceanfront home
Really nice home, right on the water. Very peaceful
2.5 / 5.0
This is a special location. Well managed, clean and comfortable.
The waterfront rises and ebbs with the tide in an entirely protected inlet. Children and older parents may all safely paddle the small harbor.
More adventurous travelers have a cornucopia of potential destinations -
Heron, loons and a large kite dominate the skies /
Shiners run at ebb and flood with streams of bass and bluefish on their trail.
Best in the fall for sportsmen.

Nice time at Morningside
We had an amazing week on Orr’s Island at Morningside! David was key and incredibly responsive to our questions before we arrived and any/all needs we had during our time at the house. Privacy is at a premium (as described in the listing) but the view and water access made up for it. Mosquitoes were a bit challenging in the evening but then again it is Maine in the summertime and David provided ample supplies of bug repellent. Our stay was comfortable, relaxing and cozy. Sunrise is spectacular and your morning coffee on the deck is the place to be! Thank you for a great week David!!

A wonderful getaway in a beautiful spot
My family (adult kids and dog) had an excellent vacation here in July 2021 and plan to return each summer. The house is very comfortable and the location could not be better. We loved the water views, the birds, the hikes nearby, and many lobster meals. David was lovely to communicate with and was very helpful and responsive. He allowed my son to bring his dog, which made our lab very happy.
The house was very well stocked for a rental house. I appreciated the extra touches: spring water with dispenser, paper towels, laundry detergent, beach towels, yoga mat, life jackets. The wharf was also great because a friend as able to come fetch us to explore other beautiful islands on Casco Bay. Lastly, we love to hike and we were so happy with the 20 plus hikes within a 15 drive, all of which were very well maintained by the Harpswell Heritage Land Trust. We particularly loved the Cliff Trail and Ben's Point beach/tidal pools.
We hope to return again each year. If our second son can join us, we will need a bigger house, But if not, we plan to return to this beautiful house again and again.
My only minor constructive suggestion is that it might be nice to add some curtains to the upstairs bedroom. The views are super, and we loved it. However, the sun is quite bright starting at 5:00 AM in July. For those who want to sleep in, curtains would be nice. My husband used his sleeping pillow, and I was jealous because I forgot to pack mine.

Gorgeous Views
We loved our stay at Morningside and we were fortunate to have excellent weather! The views are spectacular. Sitting on the porch watching the birds and other activity on the water will be missed. The home was equipped with most of what we needed for our stay. There are many trails and small beaches nearby to explore. I highly recommend the Dolphin Restaurant for those that like to get out for a nice dinner.

Wonderful house and location
We had a fantastic week at the Morningside property! The waterside location is excellent, and it is well situated to enjoy all Casco bay has to offer.
