A serene rural retreat awaits at this home near the ocean and surrounded by trees. Drift Inn Beach is a little over two miles away, and it's a quick drive to Port Clyde, one of the most picturesque fishing harbors in Mid-Coast Maine. You'll find beautiful walks, kayak and paddle-safe escapes, a general store, an ice cream parlor, art galleries, coffee shops, bars, restaurants, and the ferry to Monhegan Island. Marshall Point Lighthouse, featured in the film Forrest Gump, is just minutes away. If you want to stay close to home, hiking trails surround the property.
The home stands in a clearing amid nearly 10 acres of spruce trees, hidden away on a child-safe, private dirt road. Three hammocks offer the perfect spot for a cool nap or reading under the trees, and the peace may only be disturbed by the birds, occasional deer, or the local turkey family on their daily walk. The large deck faces south/southwest, so you'll have sun from morning until nightfall. Two picnic tables and Adirondack chairs offer alfresco seating for your cookouts using the gas grill.
Inside, you'll find 2,500 square feet of space, with highlights including an open floor plan with soaring ceilings, stylish, modern-rustic decor, exposed beams, and pine paneling. An authentic lobster trap serves as a coffee table for wine and cheese hors d'oeuvres and a selection of books, magazines, and comics—some in French, as the owners come from France—and games are ready to entertain you for the evening.
More entertainment options include free WiFi, a TV, and a Sonos sound system. At mealtime, the well-equipped kitchen features a full suite of stainless steel appliances, and there's plenty of space around the weathered-wood bespoke dining table. The kitchen bar counter is a perfect place to share drinks and laughter.
After a day of outdoor adventures, throw the windows open for a breeze - there's no need for air-conditioning with the ceiling fans - or snuggle up on the plush sofas. Toss the day's clothes in the convenient washer/dryer, then step back outside to enjoy a peaceful evening on the deck.
The idyllic coastal retreat you're looking for awaits - all that's left to do is book it.

So quiet. We saw lots of turkeys with babies, a rabbits. A big hit for all ages. The house was amazing with lots of space and amenities. Would love to return
6.0
The site is great - ferny mossy woods, and thoughtful wild landscaping leading to the house. The house has an airy main space but otherwise feels unfinished: they screened the deck underside but never built any outdoor shade; the upstairs ensuite bath has no door (?!); the downstairs bath has no light. Vacasa was a downer. They did not tell the caretaker we were coming, so we had to hook up the gas stove ourselves; and the listing did not mention that "internet" means DSL, useless for video calls. This area has great cable internet so it's a bizarre omission.
10.0
Super clean, fanatstic place, and fully functional kitchen with all the amenities you need for 10 people, nice game/story room for kids and spacious king beds for families. Outdoor grill with full gas tank and firepit with amenities make our stay more memorable.
I highly recommend this place and definitely will comeback again.
