About this house rental

Yellow Dog Cottage is on a dead end road located in a sunny clearing right at the ocean’s edge. Out front is a cove that forms a network of tidal pools at low tide that are great for exploring. It's a comfortable, peaceful and relaxing place to spend your vacation.

The house has an open floor plan with a fireplace in the living room that opens onto an well-equipped, eat-in kitchen with everything you’ll need to feel at home. The sun porch off the kitchen has windows on 3 sides and 180-degree water views and is great for reading, eating, relaxing, and playing cards, board games and doing puzzles.

You can enjoy fresh-caught lobsters delivered to our dock by our caretaker who lobsters in the bay off the house.
Outside, we have a gas grill, picnic table, outdoor fireplace and Adirondack chairs down by the water’s edge. We have our own ramp and float, a deep-water mooring in front of the house, and a natural boat launch that great for putting in kayaks and canoes.

We're located just off Muscongus Bay, which boasts some of the best kayaking, sailing, and motoring on the coast of Maine and is just minutes away by boat. Town, with local supermarkets, cafes, gas stations, and drugstores and the famous Moody's Diner, are about 20 minutes away by car.

We welcome your well-behaved dog with prior approval and an additional fee -- please inquire. Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside the house or on the porches.

Conveniently located halfway between Friendship and Waldoboro, it's an easy day trip to all of coastal Maine's attractions. It's just 45 minutes to Boothbay Harbor, and the Camden, Rockland, and Rockport areas. It's 90 minutes to L.L. Bean, Freeport's outlet shopping, Popham Beach, and Reid State Park, and just two hours to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor.

Lovely cottage with a great kitchen and a glorious spot to watch sunsets over the ocean with 11 foot tides adding drama to the view! I look forward to staying again! And God bless Harlan - the world’s finest lobsterman and his gorgeous dog Angel!

This property outdid our expectations. The house was immaculate and the overall ambiance was homey. The view was spectacular. Watching the wildlife and the lobster men plus the tide’s ebbing was so relaxing. Sitting outside and not hearing anything but birds was a respite from the world’s chaos. Truthfully this place is a piece of heaven.

Great property with multiple spaces for hangout; plenty of room for a large family. The house is right on the water, and the beauty of the surrounding area, as well as quiet and calm cannot be matched. Quick responses from the owner on any questions. Nearby handyman also catches and delivers lobsters right to your door. Excellent experience; would love to come back!

Cozy dog friendly waterfront cottage with excellent access for kayaking and fishing from convenient dock. Outdoor fire pit facing west provides ambiance all day especially sunsets. Only issue we had was that a new home was being constructed at the end of the peninsula and the tranquility of our experience was interrupted by the constant parade of huge dump trucks roaring past the house located 30 feet from the road. Otherwise we had a fantastic vacation. The owners of the property are excellent and very responsive.

As a couple and then as a family, we have been coming to Maine for 30+ years. We love the mid-coast/Penobscot area. This house is lovely and a perfect location if you like quiet and privacy. Beds were comfortable. Communication with owner was above & beyond. Hope to return here.

Thank you for sharing your home with us. From the moment we drove into the home, the view was stunning. Everyday we spent hours sitting on the dock, fishing, kayaking, watching the eagles and listening to the all the birds. We ate dinner each night outside on the picnic table, played board games and did puzzles in the sun room. We truly need this reset and this home was the very retreat we needed. We are looking forward to booking with you again - this home had everything we needed and desired. Thank you a million times over for this experience. Looking forward to more future adventures at your home! Thank you kindly, The Oliver Family

The property did not disappoint- from the view of the lobster fisherman tending their traps, to the fire pit overlooking the water and sunset and the fresh lobster meal, this was our favorite place we stayed in Maine. The house was spacious and the kitchen was well appointed. Do not hesitate to book this place! Harlen also made our experience special by making sure we had fresh lobster and prepared it correctly!
