Enjoy our charming ocean-front guest house that is so close to the water's edge you will feel like you are on a boat.

The guest house, along with our home, is located on three private acres in the historic Pennellville area. We are three miles from downtown Brunswick, a beautiful coastal town of 20,000. Only two hours to Boston, 15 minutes to Freeport.

Brunswick features Bowdoin College, the Maine State Summer Theater, a Summer Music Festival, a farmer's market, fine dining andconvenient shopping. We are a short drive to Popham and Pemaquid beaches, lakes, mountains, and state and national parks.

The guest house features a large ocean-front living/dining area overlooking a Japanese garden and a small efficient kitchen on the first floor. Upstairs are two large ocean-front bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom has a queen-size bed, the second bedroom a double.

Enjoy our herb and perennial gardens and panoramic ocean views, or simply enjoy a nap in a hammock. Access to Middle Bay with kayaking, canoeing and swimming are at your doorstep, with easy access from our dock. Enjoy a picnic on an island and all that Maine's natural coast has to offer: ospreys, eagles, loons, herons, egrets, seals.

The Pennellville area offers a beautiful bicycling and walking venue among historic farms and vistas.

We are also open to home exchanges (which do not need to be simultaneous), especially in Europe and the Caribbean. Our three bedroom house on the same property, featuring ocean views from every room may also be available. The guest house is adjacent to our home, situated in another direction and they share a common patio.

    Talk about an amazing view, peaceful walks along rural roads, and short distance way from city and all it has to offer. On Tuesday we went into Bruswick to stock up on fresh foods from the farmers market, and nearly every day we visited the ice cream shop. Because it’s vacation!Would highly recommend.

    My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was very comfortable and in a super convenient location with the water just steps from the door. Our hosts were friendly and easily accessible for any questions or assistance. Plenty of great restaurants and shopping nearby. Very relaxing trip!

    Adjacent to the waters of the Middle Bay of the larger Casco Bay sits Lynn and Jon's beautiful Maine home and rental property. We quickly found that having Jon and Lynn nearby was a real treasure, as they're knowledge of the area and relaxing demeanor were very comforting. The views are incredible and the changing landscape with the changing tides makes for new experiences, and kept our son and us intrigued throughout the week. While the home and access to the water were the real draw, we found the neighborhood and access to beautiful Brunswick and surrounding area to also be a wonderful bonus to this beautiful place. We would highly recommend this to anyone with a smaller group looking for a relaxing getaway in Maine.

    It's difficult to summarize how phenomenal our week was at Lynn & Jon's cottage in Brunswick, Maine. The views from inside the cottage and from the beautifully landscaped yard and dock outside are nothing less than spectacular. The inside space was sparkling clean and had absolutely everything we needed and then some. Beautifully decorated, all you need in the kitchen, towels and sheets smelled wonderful and so soft :) Some nights during our visit were chilly and the small gas powered fireplace that looked like a little wood stove but didn't require firewood (so easy to use!) was just perfect. Jon and Lynn were ridiculously quick with helpful responses when we needed something, and we loved every single recommendation they gave from sights to see and trails to hike to restaurants to visit. Our 8 year old daughter loved exploring the property and found shows and movies on prime video when the sun set. Suffice it to say - we highly recommend this property and these hosts. --Danielle

    Beautiful seaside property. Loved the elevated chaises on the access to the dock, and the views of the water. The cottage is nicely furnished and has beautiful views from the living room and both bedrooms. While the kitchen is small (as advertised) it is very functional; I did all my cooking there. Great stay, would be happy to return!

    The cottage is located on a wide vista bay just a few miles outside the town of Brunswick; not down one of the peninsulas. This makes it an easy access and less miles to travel when you want to explore. The owner's house is nearby, but the cottage has its own view of the water with floor to ceiling windows and a slider. Our favorite treat was the dock for our zodiac and the lounge seats built on the railings of the dock for sunning. The dock does lose water at low tide, but that did not interfere with our boat trips. Inside is adorable, very cozy with a gas fireplace, large bedrooms and bath. Kitchen, although small, has all you need and who wants to spend time in there anyway! Very quiet and lots of wildlife from bald eagles to chipmunks....Enjoy!

    Adorable spot tucked away in the woods but right at the Waters edge of a beautiful cove. We enjoyed a peaceful week here doing a lot of nothing but relaxing and enjoying the beauty and the sounds of the water and wildlife and the guy next doors patio construction lol. Still sounded better than the highway we live on at home. The owners John and Lynn couldn't have been nicer and we're very respectfully of our privacy. The cottage is adorable and comfortable and has everything you need to enjoy the place and the area. Lots of stuff to check out locally all within about a 40 min drive Max. Highly recommend if you want a quiet get away.

    This lodging was all that was advertised....The photographs are a true depiction. The two bedrooms upstairs, each with huge windows, look out onto water through some very tall, old trees. It’ s like being in a tree house with water all around! The one bathroom, upstairs, is large, nicely equipped with a heated towel rack, that dries multiple towels at the same time. Magic! Might have to get one for our home! The kitchen was tiny but newly renovated. We were the first to enjoy its design that made good use of the limited space. No oven, as advertised, but that wasn’t a problem for just the two of us senior citizens. We ate dinner out a lot or brought in take-out. The owners, Lynn and Jon, were the best!!! Helpful when needed but not intrusive at all. We already are looking ahead to 2020!

    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!
