About this house rental

Quaint Maine coast two bedroom, two bathroom modern home with excellent Wifi. Speed rating of 200 up and 10 down allow to stay connected and even have zoom calls but you really should just unplug! The house is set on a small hill with a wooded backyard and a front facing view of the Atlantic. New updated appliances in 2023! Large front lawn for tossing a football or frisbee with friends. The master bedroom with private bathroom on second floor, additional bedroom on the first floor. 2nd Bathroom also on second floor. Full kitchen, large 10x20 deck on the front to enjoy sipping coffee as you are one of the first in the US to watch the sunrise. Sunset reflections on the ocean can be stunning in the evening. On a clear night I dare you to find a more stunning sky of stars. Grab a chair and watch falling stars or find every constellation you only have seen in books.

Watch local lobsterman gather the mornings catch and tend traps from the deck. Kayak Starboard Cove or walk Jasper's Beach and find your own beautiful Jasper rocks used around the world for fine art and jewelry. 75 miles away is an easy trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, a top US attraction. Hike Cadillac mountain (or drive up!) bring your bikes and ride the famous carriage trails that the Rockefellers installed back in the early 19th century.

Miles of converted railroad tracks make up the Down East Sunrise Trail system. A major attraction for ATV enthusiasts located in Machais 10 miles away. Rent a 2 or 4 passager ATV in town and explore 90 miles of ATV trails with coatal views. This also offers excellent biking on well maintained dirt trail. Don’t leave out the chance to explore the water with a kayak tour or rent your own from sunrise canoe and kayak in Machais, A trip to town is not complete without having a great meal at Helens Restaurant. At the very least you must have the Blueberry Pie made with world famous local berries. Of course its Maine so be prepared for weather. We can have a hot muggy day then fog engulfs us the next. Its all part of the experience.

Quoddy Head State Park is located four miles off Maine Route 189 in Lubec on the easternmost point of land in the United States. On its 532 acres, purchased by the state in 1962, the park features 4.5 miles of hiking trails, extensive forests, two bogs, diverse habitat for rare plants, and the striking, red-and-white striped lighthouse tower of West Quoddy Head Light. With its diverse landscape, breathtaking views, scenic picnic sites, and opportunities for hiking and whale watching, Quoddy Head State Park is a fun and fascinating destination for visitors to down east Maine.

This property was a lovely place to spend some time winding down from a busy summer. The house is on a hill overlooking a bay, just off the Atlantic Ocean. There is a rocky beach literally across the road. The master bedroom faces the water, so it is a nice way to wake up, with the sunrise coming in. The house is comfortable, clean, and everything we needed for our family of 5. There is a deck attached, which is a perfect place to enjoy a coffee with the sunrise, or to enjoy a dinner while listening to the waves crash against the shore. The neighborhood was quiet, though there were other houses nearby. We had wildlife in the yard a few times (deer, and geese), which was nice. Our host Donna was amazing! She left great details for us on things to do and see. She also left a goody bag for us as well! She was very responsive when I had a couple of questions, which helped out. I know I've talked up the place a bit, but there is really a lot that is great about the property. Do be prepared to drive a bit if you need things, however. The nearest town is about 20 minutes - one way. It has groceries and a few smaller shops and restaurants. However, many other things (like a Walmart) are an hour away. Its not a deal breaker, in my opinion, but we weren't quite as prepared for that as we could have been. Just something to be mindful when staying there. If I get the chance to return to Maine, I would certainly want to stay at this lovely property again! Thanks Donna!

We had a quiet stay. The people that we talked to was pleasant and helpful. The house was clean and safe. It had everything you needed to have a comfortable stay. If you love the ocean and the quiet this is a great place to stay.

Our trip coincided with the landfall of Hurricane Lee - Donna went above and beyond on getting us updates, suggestions and even offered us some flexibility on the rental dates. All ended up working out as planned and it was a fantastic stay. The place was as described and as expected. The deck is awesome, nighttime sky views are unbeatable, it’s a nice area for walks and the serenity of the water and quiet neighbors made for a great getaway. A 10/10 recommendation for the rental, the owner and everything about it!

The house is very nice. Missing some basics- wine glasses, outdoor grill, very few electrical outlets and odd that both bathrooms are on the same level. The house was clean and wonderful to have washer/dryer and dishwasher. The view was outstanding and comfortable to sit on the deck and take daily walks to the point.

Our stay in Machiasport was wonderful. Terrific location that is quiet and off the beaten path with access to the best of what Maine has to offer. We visited Acadia, Lubec, Bar Harbor, as well as a few local spots like Devils Oven and Bad Little Falls. The views from the property were spectacular! One night there was a late day shower and the most stunning, rainbow appeared! It spanned the entire horizon! Never have we seen such a marvelous rainbow! The home was tidy and well organized. Just the right size for our family of four to relax after a day of exploring down east Maine. Donna was a delight to correspond with always Timely, friendly, and informative. Overall a wonderful vacation experience!

Everything was pretty much perfect. Appreciated having laundry soap, paper towels, paper plates, etc. we’re used to a king bed so the bed was a little uncomfortable. Loved being able to cook but it’s kind of dark by the stove. Maybe a small lamp on the side? It’s a beautiful area and neighbors were very nice. Enjoyed Matt’s lobster and Helen’s Cafe and of course, the deck.
