Georgetown, Maine
Beautiful, picturesque 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage overlooking pristine marsh and waterfront.
There is a hiking trail along water's edge and also kayaks or a canoe for rent to explore the waterways.
The cottage has wood beamed ceilings and pine floors. There is a large wraparound screened porch from which you can enjoy sunset views over the water.
Two bedrooms offer queen size beds and the third has two twin size beds.
For those who desire to stay 'plugged in' we offer basic television channels and wifi.
The kitchen is complete with full size refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, toaster and coffee pot not to mention all the pots, pans, dishes and utensils you will need. If you enjoy to BBQ there is a charcoal grill just outside the front door. For lobster lovers we have a large pot available for you to cook them fresh in your cottage.
The Midcoast area of Maine is known for its miles of white sandy beaches and Lobster wharfs where you can enjoy their famous lobster dinners on the dock as you watch the lobstermen bringing in their catch for the day. What makes the midcoast so appealing is the fact that you get to enjoy all this without the crowds. You will love the slower pace of life and the pristine beauty of this untouched area.

This was both a great base for exploring the Midcoast region and a place for relaxing on rainy days. We would certainly stay here or at one of the affiliated properties in the future - this cottage is not accessible to guests with mobility issues.
Our family loved spending time at this beaucolic property, and found so much to do on - and nearby -Georgetown island. Great intro to Maine for us first-timers from California.
We had such a great stay at Sebago. Plenty of room for a family of three and dog to spread. The screen porch was such a respite during rainy days and hot days (we had both and not much in between). Great breezes too. Close to everything and a perfect home base. Also an easy on/off Route 1, which is key. And you definitely get the family-owned vibe of the entire peninsula, which was unique for our other stays in the area. Katie was great to work with. Very responsive. We already have next summer on the books!
This was our second time at this location. We loved it. It’s close to great food, nature, and the wonderful town of Bath. Highly recommended!
We stayed at this lovely cottage and were very pleased with the accommodations! This area is insanely beautiful. The screened porch is world class. We enjoyed the pass for Reid State Park. It was a great place to relax and enjoy the island!
We were able to easily find in the beginning and easy to access the main roads for other events. Rooms are spacious, clean and all amenities are included. (Even laundry detergent!) The porch is a beautiful dream spot! We had most of our meals out there and my husband and I enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets while our boys were sleeping or enjoying device time. FYI This is a natural area and the mosquitoes are plentiful on the road and path. The house is raised so the deck, screened in porch and the campfire area were mosquitoe free. There is also plenty of hot water; We took 4 quick showers after a beach day and nobody had cold water. The restaurants in Brunswick are incredible! Also, the 5 Island Lobster restaurant is awesome- arrive early, they run out of items. Great place to begin your day in and end in.
The house is in a great location with a beautiful view. It was very clean upon arrival and easy to access. We arrived in the evening, went to make a quick dinner for the kids and discovered no grill tools. There was also no cooking essentials like a sheet pan (for oven fries), a vegetable peeler, etc. Listing mentions stocked kitchen with pantry items (none, not even oil) so this threw a curve ball. By the time we got around to making the master bed (beds aren’t made upon arrival) we discovered the box spring was cracked in half and we couldn’t sleep on it. Spent the first night on the floor. The property manager, Katie, was very kind and responsive. They fixed the bed by the following afternoon and brought over the missing kitchen items we mentioned. I will say, I was surprised after such a rough first night that the owners never reached out to apologize. We found throughout the week that the kitchen is very lacking in essentials if you are planning to make a meal there vs dining out. They also said they provided paper towels and tp, but there was only one small roll of paper towels so we had to go out and purchase that also. Also no kitchen counter spray, etc. The fridge had a sign saying you shouldn’t drink the water, and to use the jugs in the fridge to get you started. This was inconvenient because we didn’t know ahead of time to bring our own drinking water. We found out later the water was now drinkable thanks to a new well and to NOT drink from the jugs. The porch is beautiful, but the chairs at the table on the porch were plastic stackable chairs that were uncomfortable and also broken and cracked along the back. Having comfortable chairs out there make the space usable- which you need if traveling with 6 because the living room area doesn’t seat 6 people. Checkout was a bit confusing. All sheets and towels need to be washed, which we found out via text. It mentioned sheets on VRBO but not towels. Also, the house is only accessible by stone steps and then a wooden stair case. No problem for my family, but we sometimes travel with my parents and this would have been an issue for them, so mentioning it for others. You also have to walk/drive garbage bags down the road to a dump. This could be a great place to stay if the kitchen was stocked like the listing mentioned and they updated the furnishings so they weren’t broken. Also an updated welcome packet including checkout instructions would help a lot!
This property has a huge screened in porch that we sat on all the time. It has a view of the marsh. We saw deer, a bald eagle and lots of boats going by. The inside of the house was nice also. The bedrooms were all good sized. Two bathrooms were a plus too. Kitchen, dining room and living room were also nice. We fit five people very comfortablely in there. If you want a porch with a view, this is the place for you. Bring your binoculars.
Great location for exploring small cities. Excellent property with great relaxing views, plenty of space. Washer/Dryer, 2 bathrooms were great additions. Recommended!
We absolutely loved the cottage we stayed in at Back River Bend. It had everything that we needed and everything was clean and orderly. The view from the screened in porch was spectacular. I will cherish the memories of sitting quietly out there each morning of our stay and reading, meditating, and just drinking my coffee. While the quiet time and down time was excellent, we also enjoyed walking the trail, taking the canoes and kayaks out on the river, and taking a private wooden boat ride with Captain Jonathan all the way to the Atlantic. We were sad to leave but will always have the memories to keep in our hearts and also we will be thinking about returning again before too long.
