About this cottage rental

Completed in 2019, The Westwind epitomizes the pinnacle of architectural elegance and craftsmanship. This exquisite Maine cottage boasts breathtaking ocean views and a prime vantage point over “The Cove,” ensuring a front-row seat to its serene beauty and lively activities. Nestled within a secluded 68-acre summer retreat, The Westwind offers unparalleled access to the ocean, tranquil forest trails, and a private 11-acre island. Managed by the same family for over 123 years, "Floods Cove" is a timeless haven for those seeking an authentic Maine oceanfront experience.

No detail was overlooked in the design and landscaping of The Westwind. Whether you seek a luxurious family getaway filled with outdoor adventures or a serene adult retreat, this cottage is the ultimate destination. The Westwind combines “Camp Chic” with modern elegance, featuring knotty pine ceilings, nickel-gap white walls, poplar doors, and crystal doorknobs.

The cottage comfortably accommodates guests with three bedrooms: a master suite on the first floor and two additional bedrooms with a bath upstairs. For extra guests, a cool queen bed is available in the new dry basement, along with a washer and dryer for convenience.

A standout feature is the expansive wrap-around porch, offering panoramic views of the ocean, the beach, “Pa’s Island,” and all of Flood’s Cove. This is the perfect spot to unwind, read, socialize, or nap while enjoying the refreshing summer breezes and warm sunshine of the Maine coast.

With private access to the beach and ocean right outside your door, you can wade in the water, swim, or explore over a mile of exclusive shorefront by kayak or paddleboard (included). After a day of seaside activities, rinse off with an outdoor hot water shower, designed to soothe and refresh.

Why settle for a mere “cottage” when you can experience an “estate”? A stay at The Westwind promises a rejuvenating retreat and leaves you eagerly anticipating your next visit to this enchanting cove. Please note, The Westwind is a no-pet, no-smoking property, ensuring a pristine environment for all guests.

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay in Flood’s Cove. The house has a great porch with fantastic view of the cove - perfect for reading, coffee, meals of a glass of wine. House is new and well equipped (missing only a dishwasher, but with a washer and dryer) and comfortable for the 4 of us to spread out. Convenient location to explore the Maine coast including Boothbay, Damariscotta and Rockland. Chuck is very easy to work with and helpful. We’d love to return to this wonderful spot.

Paraphrasing the Billboard “Maine, Life as it Should Be - is perfect for Floods Cove. Beautiful property and house - really well equipped and furnished nicely. Porch view terrific. Really quiet - lobster boats are close enough to see but far enough as to not rouse you from bed too early. Owners are available 24/7 and extremely responsive. Friendship has just about everything you need at the General Store - do get a pizza - and Jameson Point seafood restaurant- really fresh and delicious. We will be back!!

Every aspect of this stay was wonderful! The owner's could not have been more friendly and helpful. The tranquil setting gave us an opportunity to just "be" in nature. The view was absolutely beautiful and the peace and quiet was just what we needed!

Perfect place for relaxation
Perfect place for relaxation
The property was exactly as pictured and described on line. The property owners were extremely responsive, welcoming, and helpful. I was looking for a place to rewind and relax with a beautiful view and this definitely checked off all the boxes. Spent the majority of my time on the wrap around porch during the day enjoying the views, sunsets, and a variety of birds and at the fire pit in the evening. The overall area surrounding the cottage has nice paths to explore and walk and is also not far from Rockland, Camden by car. I also highly recommend the convenience store not far from the property. It is well stocked with everything and also does a great job with pizza and sandwiches.
