This rental is as spectacular as advertised. It is fresh and clean and located in quintessential Maine. We loved it. However, if you plan on doing a lot of kayaking, you need to know that there is literally no water at low tide. Those steep rocks end on a mud flat, so getting in and out of the water was strategically planned in the hours before and after high tide. This meant we couldn't be spontaneous, and didn't go on any sunset or sunrise adventures, as high tide during our stay was mid day. We did enjoy kayaking every day around Spruce Head and the other many small islands. It is a wonderful area to explore. Highlights included a close encounter with a tuna and large schools of herring swimming right under our boats!

The cottage was spotless and has everything you would need for a wonderful experience. Definitely go to McLoons Lobster Shack for the best lobster rolls. Captain Parker in Rockland gave us a beautiful sailing tour in Penobscot Bay. Camden has great shopping and good restaurants. Lots of hiking in the area too.

This is a charming cottage with a lovely view. A wonderful place to relax and unwind.

This was our third stay at Sea Breeze Cottage. We love it - great house, great location, and Shelter Cove property management is wonderful to work with.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! House was clean and updated. The location was central to our planned activities in Mid-coast Maine.

We have stayed at this location before under different ownership. We love the location with easy short drives to area attractions, day trips etc. The new owners have done a nice job with updates which makes it even more comfortable. Highly recommend this home and don't forget to go to McLoons!! :)

My family and I made this our home base for a visit to see family in the area. The house was perfect for our family of five. Plenty of space, comfortable, well equipped, with a great deck and beautiful views. We’re already thinking about when we can come back!

We LOVED everything about this house! What a gorgeous spot. Right on a beautiful cove where you can sit on the deck and watch the tide come in and out (and there is an 8+ foot difference between low and high tide!). The house is classic New England, open concept with picture windows throughout that bring in the views and the light into the house. Many birds (including loons!) call the cove home and it is so peaceful to watch them skim along the water and scoop up the occasional fish. The property is completely private and you feel like you are in your own little world. It's a one mile walk to McLoons Lobster Shack and less than 10 minutes to Rockland. Tons of farmers markets in the are with great produce and blueberry pies. We have stayed in houses all over the world and this just might be our favorite one. We could not recommend it more highly!

The house and location were exactly as depicted on the VRBO website. This bayside home was lovely. It was a great starting point for a couple of day trips. And you can’t beat the location to McLoon‘s lobster shack! We went there twice! Sue was great—always quick to reply as we kept her posted on our travel plans. All in all, this was a perfect place for us and we will come back again in the future!

A lovely house, well situated for exploring mid-coastal Maine. We had a delightful week in gorgeous Maine! We wish we could’ve stayed longer…

This wonderful cottage has great views and worked perfectly for 6 of us.

We all absolutely LOVED this cottage. I could go on forever about how nice this place was. The cottage supplied everything we needed, was decorated so cute, and very clean! The cottage manager was so helpful and answered us very quickly. It was the perfect place to stay. I would highly recommend staying here. It’s a short drive into Rockland and not far from Camden. We took a day trip to Bar Harbor/Acadia which is 2.5 hours away but so worth it. We enjoyed the deck, watching the tide come in, and some beautiful sunsets! We hope to return to this cottage someday. Thank you so much for having such a lovely place to relax and enjoy our “happy place”

This was our second time in this lovely spot. After a very difficult year, we needed a good dose of tranquility. This house and its lovely surroundings were just what we needed. The only way this rental could be better is if it were mine. The rental management company was also terrific. Very helpful and responsive.

Cottage is comfortable, private, and provides everything promised. Enjoyed two nonsequential weeks at "Seabreeze" and would happily return next year. My guests shared the pleasure of being there.

We just had a wonderful week in Rockland Maine. The cottage is very pretty and well decorated and comfortable. Super clean and quiet even though neighbors share driveway. The cottage is otherwise quite far from everything, 30 minutes to go to Rockland and first supermarket. Another thing that should be mentioned is that the cottage is at the end of the cove so at low tide there is no water. But at high tide it is very pretty. Very nice welcome gesture from owner! Overall a great time! I shouldn’t forget to mention that there is a Great lobster shack 3 minutes away from the cottage! It closes at 5PM.

Beautiful home, wonderful sunsets, and ever changing scenery. We look forward to returning.

Perfect quiet get away. Clean house; well appointed. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the tides come in and out all day, and driving to the nearby lobster restaurants. The kayaks were great to quickly get out on the water.

This was our third time renting in the Mid Coast (preciously Belfast and Owls Head) and we enjoyed this house the most of the three. It felt extremely private and quiet and the access to water and decks/windows right over the water were great. We made use of the grill, kayaks (right off the property) and enjoyed the view as much as possible. McLoons lobster shack about a mile away, and easy access to Rockland as well as Camden/Rockport a bit further north. The manager was very easy to communicate with. The house was very clean and had all necessary kitchen and bedroom supplies, towels, etc. All three bedrooms look out towards the water. Washer and Dryer and dishwasher all worked fine. Some snacks and board games a nice touch. We would definitely stay again.

The property and view was beautiful for our family of 6. Area also delightful - something to do for ages 2-62. Wish it could have been longer.

Overall, "Seabreeze" is a very good value. Extremely well equipped, well located, well appointed. Returning in September and looking forward to it I've rented many, none better than this.

We spent two wonderful weeks at Seabreeze Cove with our parents who flew in from Europe. Everything at the cottage was as it looked online and the communication with Sue, the property manager, was very easy. We were really blessed with the weather and enjoyed a lot of time outside on the deck with its spectacular views over the cove - which changed ever day with the water coming and going. There are two kayaks and my husband and son enjoyed it almost every day. The getting in and out off the kayak was a little tough sometimes because of the tide level and slippery stones but it was worth doing the effort. We have been to this area before seven years ago and we enjoyed our trips to Port Clyde (there is fantastic food and great outside seating at the Dip Net), Rockland, Rockport and Camden. This was our first stay at the Seabreeze Cove cottage and we already decided while we were there, that we will definitely come back. Thank you very much for sharing this beautiful place.

Sue and Valerie could not have been nicer with all their timely communications which answered questions with details and so much more. The home made a nice relaxing vacation for us and our two adult children and daughter-in-law. Many things close by to visit by car, nice area to walk around, and spending time on the deck anytime of the day was enjoyable. Kitchen was great for cooking and the home was comfortable. My only advice to those who would want to visit the restaurants and book store that are in walking distance, is to visit before September 30th , as that is when they closed down for the season. But a good time was had by all.

We had a great time!

My partner and I have been renting homes in this part of Maine for 9 years. One evening while sitting by the fire pit and enjoying the sunset, we compared all of them. While each in their own way had something to offer, this is by far is the best house we have rented. The house was perfectly situated, comfortable, and clean. The beds and bedding were good quality (not always the case in rental homes). The easy access to the water for kayaking was wonderful, and having nice kayaks available for use made getting out on the water very easy. It was a perfect spot for getting away from the daily chaos of life. We were sad to leave.
