About this cottage rental

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.

Top level has a queen sized bed, and 2 single beds. There is a second small bedroom with a pop-up trundle, that can be a configured as a single bed, or 2 singles, or put together as a king-sized bed. The living-dining area has large sliding doors facing the water, which lead out to a large deck that has a a panoramic view the harbor with a charcoal grill, 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!

Great location and top notch communication with the manager. The couch and dining table need to be replaced. Kitchen was not as well equipped as I would prefer. I would stay there again as the location and view out weigh these short comings.

This is our 4th time staying at this cottage. I am a kayaker so I like the convenience of having a beach across the street to store my kayak and the location close to Castine harbor. The view from the cottage is amazing. Negatives would be access to the cottage is via steep stairs accessed from a damp basement.

This was our second stay at Janet’s property as well as our second stay in Castine. The home is clean, welcoming, and the perfect location to soak in the beauty of the surrounding area. The views off the deck are stunning, it’s within walking distance to downtown Castine and other points of interest in the area, and is helpfully situated for a quick drive out of town to explore Downeast Maine. We hope to return again and again!

We love to come back every year. Two times for us this year! I'll never get tired of the view from this cottage. Coffee and reading on the deck, windows open for the breeze and beautiful scenery whether is foggy, rainy or a perfectly beautiful sunshiny day. The cottage is always spotless and perfect for a couple or small family. The town of Castine is beautiful and serene. I took three walks a day and will never ever get tired of the views.Plenty of history in this town to keep you occupied. Janet is very responsive and a gracious host. You will not be disappointed!
