We absolutely loved our stay on Maple Juice Cove! The kayaking from the gorgeous boat dock was incredible. The waterfront location is so peaceful. A flock of wild turkeys hung out with us regularly. We enjoyed many other birds that kept busy on the tidal waters. The thermostat was broken upon arrival, so we spent two chilly nights with a space heater until it could be fixed.While the host did provide us with firewood to help heat the house via the fireplace he did not offer any discount for the stay. We made due with the warm blankets on the comfy beds, but it was a bit unpleasant getting in and out of bed (especially that first night). We were out an about for most of the days. The location is very near the Olsen House (made famous in the Andrew Wyeth painting Christina's World). In fact, we ended up kayaking to an island just below it, we just didn't realize it at the time. The location is a bit remote, with lots of winding roads to get to the house, but it was just so serene there. If you love nature and quiet, the cottage is a really lovely retreat with furnishings that embody Danish hygge. On those rainy days, the old school arcade games in the basement provide for some fun entertainment. The kitchen was well equipped. The beds comfortable. The basement is a fun hang-out space, although not fully finished. I wouldn't recommend this cottage for anyone with small kids as the stairs are steep and open from the main level. We would love to come back!

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is beautiful and peaceful. We didn’t have to drive more than 20-30min. to enjoy all sorts of activities on the coast. We also enjoyed days at the house, the property is just beautiful. The sunset and sunrise are fantastic! The property managers are wonderful and are very helpful and pleasant. Highly recommend!

Great place and great host!

It’s a wonderful property with loads of space for outdoor activities. Indoor has all been re-done and was perfect for our tween, who made the basement her space. The outdoor screened in porch is amazing, and we spent a ton of time in it. We loved this cottage!

Wonderful property and comfortable house. Offered everything we were looking for during our Summer waterfront vacation in Maine.

We had a terrific week at the Maple Juice Cove cottage. The house was immaculate and very comfortable. Its mid-century furniture was lovely. The bathroom is modern with a roomy shower that has a handheld sprayer in addition to the traditional shower head. The primary bedroom is generously sized and both bedrooms have very comfortable beds and air conditioners. The well-equipped kitchen provided everything and more that we needed. It was lovely to have the screen porch for bug-free outdoor dining and reading in a very pleasant living/dining setting. We really enjoyed the convenience of the dock for kayaking. We brought our own, but two are supplied for your use. The comfy chairs on the upper dock provide a great place to watch the early morning fog roll out with a cup of coffee, or to have a cocktail at the end of the day. There was plenty of bird life to watch - we saw numerous Great Blue Herons and even a Bald Eagle. You can’t beat the inner cove - it’s very quiet and private. Ryan was a very responsive host. Highly recommend this spot!

We had a wonderful time at this cottage on the cove! It has everything we needed to feel at home. We cooked most of our meals there and ate several lovely dinners on the screened-in porch. I loved drinking my coffee in the morning by the water and having a beer as the sun was setting. We biked, paddled and relaxed every day. My husband and daughter had so much fun waging Donkey Kong battles on the arcade machine and we enjoyed the speaker provided to always have great music playing. They even have current books for loan for guests! If you enjoy relaxing, kayaking easily and having your creature comforts - you will love this place.

We had a great week in Maine and we loved the property. It was a great size for our family of three and we loved walking out to the dock each day. Our daughter loved the arcade game with numerous games and the often spent mornings playing Pac-Man. The yard is great, the view is great, and the ability to hear nature and see the stars is a plus. The location is a bit remote for exploring, but the property and view is worth it. Use of the garage was a nice bonus with the rain we had early in the week. Having the necessities provided, to include towels, limited firewood, etc was also great. Ryan was an outstanding host and provided ample information leading up to and throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend this property.

Great place! Really enjoyed our stay. Property was beautiful. The walk in closet in the king room was perfect to put our pack & play for the toddler to sleep. Our 5-year-old loved fishing off the dock, roasting marshmallows over the fire, and playing arcade games. Super close to Thomaston and Rockland for dinners.

Great place to stay. Kayaks and fireplace were a big plus. Super clean and great communication. Nice mattresses (june 2023).

The property is very nice. We went beginning of June and it rained quite a bit thanks to a front that stalled and pinwheeled over new England. The sun came out here and there and weather improved towards the end of the week. We're native New Englander's, so completely understand you can't control the weather and need to adjust and take advantage of the sun when it presents itself. The inside is very tastefully decorated throughout. Love the artwork. It was a pleasure to cook in the kitchen. Anything you would need to cook a meal was there and most everything is very high end. It was like cooking at home only with a much better view. Beds are very comfortable, and shower was great. The fireplace and entertainment room were awesome as well and a welcome escape on a rainy day. There are some great restaurants in Rockland. We were lucky enough to get a reservation at Primo and went to Archer's on the Pier several times. Both are great places and I highly recommend both. Ryan did a great job communicating everything to us. There were no surprises. There is also a book there that explains everything you need to know, places of interest etc. You guys have a very special place. We had a nice relaxing stay. Thank you for having us!!

I was looking for a quiet, secluded getaway as part of our babymoon this was the perfect location. The property is so quiet and tranquil making it the perfect way for us to reset and unwind. We stayed an entire month and I have absolutely no regrets. The house is fully stocked with everything we needed and more compared to most rentals. There is so much this space offers between kayaking the inlet, enjoying a cup of coffee on the dock, the beautiful sunrises every morning, late nights of Pacman, and more. We had family stay with us twice and the house was well equipped to handle us hosting. Ryan was truly the perfect host! You rarely meet a host that not only cares about their space to make it feel like a home, but also meet someone so inviting that they go out of their way to make sure you have the perfect stay. I'm incredibly grateful for Ryan and his kindness! It was an unforgettable stay and we look forward to returning one day!

Property is just as pictured and described - beautiful! Highly recommend if you’re wanting to get away from the noisy/busy city life. The property manager was readily available and extremely accommodating. Restaurants/stores are a good 20 minute drive from the property. Would definitely stay again!

The cottage is beautifully remodeled, mid-century charm. beds very comfortable, rooms and space as well. woke up each morning from the master bedroom to the sun reflected off the water. kids had a ball with the arcade while we had our coffee on the wharf watching the tide go in and out. fireplace at night was great!

This home away from home was a perfect mix of rustic and luxury. Ryan was a very kind host, it made it very easy to relax and have a worry free vacation. The water views were beautiful and peaceful. It was difficult to say goodbye!

It was such a pleasure to just pull in and feel right at home…..anything u could possibly need was already there. It was lovely to meet the owners as well as the property mgr during my stay. Highly recommend!

Fantastic place with everything we needed. The cove is beautiful and sitting out on the dock with a coffee watching the sunrise was priceless. Thank you! We will be back!

We had an incredible time on our trip to maine. The hosts were extremely helpful with any questions we had about the surround area. Very tranquil, relaxing place with a beautiful dock where we had dinner, drinks, and fun with the kids. We made a lot of memories and I’m so glad we went.

Our family absolutely loved staying at the cottage. The owners have done a great job remodeling recently. We spend quite a bit of time on the water and also exploring the surrounding area. We will definitely be back again!

Beautiful location and water views! Nice porch and screened in area for sitting outside, great fire pit (bring some wood) Great views from master bedroom. Home was obviously under renovation with a lot of construction material/debris left around. The new furniture was very uncomfortable to sit it. Beds were amazing, very comfortable and the arcade games were a hit. Location was a bit out there..20 minute car ride for anything. Cushing was a bit too isolated for us with young kids but those seeking peace and quiet, it’s a great place

What a great spot for a getaway. Felt like our own private lake- could only see two other houses. We lit a fire, played some retro video games, drove for many lobster/steamer dinners (Friendship, Rockland and Port Clyde) and relaxed while reading books (so many different spots to do this). House had all we needed plus more.
