A charming guest house perfect for a week’s get-away on Casco Bay. Close to Brunswick and within easy access to other amenities along the coast, it’s a perfect home base for a couple or two looking to explore the area. Thank you Lynn and Jon for sharing your home!

My wife and 20 month old son stayed here for a week. The house is very nice and spacious as we never even needed to enter one of the extra bedrooms. It was easy to “ child proof” for those with children this age that want to touch everything. The views from the house are fantastic on the front and side. The only thing that could be improved is the kitchen which is small with no microwave and the fridge is a mini fridge. It was still fine for breakfast and lite cooking but we ended up eating dinner out more than we would prefer. The location is great as it’s very private yet a close drive to so many Maine attractions. We had never been to Brunswick and were pleasantly surprised as there is plenty to do in and around the area. The dock is fantastic for either swimming or fishing in a private setting. The tide comes in and out at pretty dramatic differences. I found that stripers were coming in at the night time high tides to feed on little baitfish. They were mostly schoolies although something did snap my 25 lb test one day. They are tough to catch as it’s hard to get them to go after other bait when there are millions s of these tiny baitfish around. I caught a couple throughout the week on worms and clam. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful vacation on the ocean in Maine.

Our stay was comfortable, relaxing and peaceful. The ocean views from the cottage are gorgeous, with an expansive look out to the Bay - as well as an intimate overlook of the inlet. The private dock was so convenient for swimming and enjoying sunrise/sunset at the water's edge. A short walk away is another great swimming spot and boat launch. Situated in a picturesque, low-development neighborhood for long walks enjoying nature. We also loved the proximity to downtown Brunswick, Freeport and Portland. So many great activities nearby. Owners are super nice people too!

Spent a wonderful time in September at this very lovely guest house on the water. The house and the grounds--at a gorgeous, picturesque point on the water-- are so peaceful and quiet, but still within driving distance of all the wonderful things Maine has to offer. The guest house has large rooms--beautifully and comfortably decorated---with everything you need for a great stay. And there are so many thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. The location is perfect--on a point with just the water as a background. And it was really wonderful to look out the window at the trees, hear the birds chirping, and watch the changing sky over the water! The owners are so pleasant and helpful, and will make sure you have whatever you need to make your stay just heavenly.

We had three generations stay at this cottage for almost a week and we had a blast. We had traveled to Maine for a college graduation and decided to come early to enjoy the ocean. This place was perfect for our needs. The owners were there to greet us and give us the run down and then left us alone to settle in and enjoy the beautiful property. They were extremely respectful of our privacy but were always available to answer questions at any time. The property is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. I wish we lived closer because I would frequent this cottage every year if I could.

We spent a few days in this wonderful and very charming cottage. The ocean view from the bedrooms, the quiet and peaceful area, the sunset over the bay, the wonderful owners very helpful and friendly....made this stay magical and unique. Patricia

Ces quelques jours dans ce charmant et delicieux cottage au bord de l'ocean, ont ete merveilleux, magiques... Tres bien equipe, cuisine, salle de bain, sejour avec de grandes baies vitrees donnant sur l ocean, deux chambres donnant egalement sur la mer, le tout amenage avec beaucoup de gout. C est un veritable petit bout de paradis, un havre de paix unique. Vous pourrez apprecier les balades tout autour, les baignades dans l ocean, et la vue dont on ne se lasse pas sur cette etendue calme. Les proprietaires sont charmants, attentionnes et discrets, si vous avez besoin de renseignements sur la region, quoique ce soit, ils vous aiderons avec grand plaisir. Magique !

We spent a wonderful summer week in this charming cottage on the bay. The views are incredible, the tide goes in and out dramatically, great places to walk, you can even find edible mushrooms in the woods (just ask the hosts). The cottage is very comfortable and welcoming. Great breezes at night, birds singing in the morning, a private dock for swimming and fishing, what more could you ask for. The hosts are helpful and friendly and a wealth of local information. We left with that "peaceful easy feeling."

Arrived here at the end of a short, scenic drive out from the Portland, Maine Jetport. I was greeted by the owners to an awesome marine panorama with views, from atop a embankment just feet from the high tide line, east across the sound to Harpswell and looking southward. The unit itself tends toward pleasant rustic and includes a kitchenette with fridge, two large bedrooms, a bath and a wonderful glassed-in sitting room. A cable TV was available, but I don't do TV, and a small propane heater was not needed in the warm July weather. A short drive takes you to the town of Brunswick, which has numerous stores and restaurants, and also accesses coastal route 1 - the main gateway to the beautiful Maine coast both north and south. The sound of the seabirds and the tidal flows lulled me to sleep and greeted me each morning. Finally, watching the private fireworks on the far side of Harpswell Sound the evening of the Fourth was a treat. I'd recommend this place to anyone.

Three of us stayed in this idyllic Brunswick cottage in August. The location couldn't be better, at the end of a little-traveled road and right on the water. We were close to Brunswick, Freeport and Portland and all they have to offer and yet, it was so completely peaceful that we heard only the tidal water and the birds. The cottage is very comfortable and attractive, and though the kitchen is small, we were able to make most of our dinners at home and enjoy them while watching the sun go down. The hosts are beyond nice, though very careful about the tenants' privacy. I'd very much like to return.

This cottage is very charming and wonderfully relaxing! All of the windows are extra large and allow you to see the ever-changing bay scenery from dawn until dusk. Watching the tide rise and fall and the sky change color throughout the day never gets old. As an artist, i really appreciated the charm of the interior of the cottage- the floor color, furniture, wall paint colors and each wall has original art, an excellent touch. The house was very clean, another thing my family appreciated. Jon and Lynn are so nice and hospitable and never imposing. The town of Brunswick has roadside vegetable stands and many fantastic restaurants but we frequented a dock near by that boils fresh lobster for $1 each. There is much to see and do for everyone- an phenomenal Maritime Museum in Bath, a ropes course and ample antique shopping. My whole family misses being at the cottage! I would highly recommend this property.

We'll always have lovely memories of our two weeks at this cottage. We stayed here with our 10 year-old daughter while our older daughter was at the Maine Media Workshops. The drive to Rockport was a little bit longer than expected, but this was the perfect location for exploring Mid-coast Maine--close enough to major roads, but in a peaceful, pastoral, secluded setting right on the water. We kayaked, clamored over the rocks along the shore, rode our rented bikes to a nearby marina for penny candy and ice cream cones, and took day trips to Camden, Monhegan Island and Portland. It was always a pleasure to return to the cottage, light the gas fireplace to take off the chill, and spend the evening reading a good book while listening to the waves lap the shore outside. The bedrooms are spacious with huge windows overlooking the water. The kitchen is small, has a microwave and cooktop, but not an oven or dishwasher; but it was the perfect size to remind me to keep things simple! Jon and Lynn are great people and were very respectful of our privacy. This was our first time using vrbo and we can only hope any subsequent bookings will be as successful as this one.

... and in fact, extended my stay by a day. The view was magic, the calm waters of the inlet were perfect for swimming and kayaking across, the house was simple but comfortable. I especially loved the airy bedrooms upstairs. There's a peaceful serenity to the whole property -- with beautiful gardens, plenty of comfortable places to sit, read, or just take it all in, and lovely walking in the area. John and Lynn are easy-going and delightful, they made me (and my dog) feel right at home. Brunswick also yielded unexpected delights: a great meal at the Back Street Bistro, coffee and a bite at the relaxed and spacious Frontier Cafe, and a great walk/hike through the woods of the Town Common.

John and Lynn's guest house was everything it said it would be. It's a beautiful, secluded cottage that was in the perfect location for day trips to many Maine attractions. The cottage is exactly like the pictures. Lynn and John were so helpful and gracious. My husband, pre-teen son and daughter, and I stayed for a week the first of August. We didn't want to leave. We did day trips into Portland for the Portland Sunset Harbor cruise and a Sea Dog game. We made the comfortable drive to Acadia National Park for a day, absolutely beautiful. Freeport is also very close for a discovery school adventure with LL Bean. We were very glad that we had picked this place to stay after the hustle and bustle of some of the other towns we visited. Check out the Bodoin College Art Museum and Perry Museum only five miles from the cottage.

I just spent a week at this cottage, using it as a base for a family reunion in Brunswick. I was there alone for several nights, and then joined by two sons and my daughter-in-law. The cottage is exactly as described - located right on the water, attractively furnished, very well-equipped, comfortable beds and lovely linens. The kitchen is small but works well for breakfast, lunch and a simple supper. The view from the cottage is amazing - right on a spectacular tidal inlet with sweeping views of rugged Maine scenery. I would definitely go back. The owners are accommodating and available, but you have a great deal of privacy here. We loved it!!

When my wife and I wanted to re-visit Maine, we looked for a place that was centrally located to facilitate our exploring the south coast. Lynn's and John's cottage is it! Not only did it give us access to everything of interest in the area for our ten day stay, it made our stay quite comfortable. We were not disappointed to find that the pictures in the listing accurately portrayed the charm and sense of peace that we sought. The quite pleasant and serene location was exactly what we had been looking for. We enjoyed long walks in the rural setting of this quiet getaway. On the flip side was the cottage's proximity to every place, from Kennebunkport to Portland to Freeport to Boothbay Harbor to Rockland. Added to that was our host's wonderful hospitality. We truly felt like guests when we met John on our first day there as he explained all that was available for our comfort - from the hammock to the kayaks. Lynn was equally gracious in guiding us to local sights and longer road trips. Would I recommend this cottage to a friend? Absolutely! Thank you, Lynn and John!!
