Overlooking the scenic Kennebec River, this quaint New England cottage named the Frost House is a lovingly restored historic home with unique charm. The back deck offers breathtaking river views, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or a peaceful sunset night. Inside, the home is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully decorated with hand-picked antique furnishings from Maine and beyond, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The upstairs master suite includes a space to relax and an upgraded bathroom. Located in a quiet, walkable neighborhood, it’s just steps from historic downtown Bath’s shops, restaurants, and waterfront attractions. With clean, spacious bedrooms and a serene setting, this home is a perfect Maine getaway.

Background on the home:
The Frost House sits on the site of a previously working shipyard, one of several in Bath that produced US-made boats and navy vessels. The site is now part of a development project aimed at rejuvenating the unused land and bringing mixed-use community back to Bath's waterfront. The dining room of the Frost House functions as a showroom for the project but guests are welcome to eat at the table and take a look at the architectural plans.

    If you love coastal Maine but have had enough of overcrowded tourist meccas, Bath is the town to visit. And if you enjoy staying in older homes where everything works, sleeping comfortably in a quiet and safe part of town, watching the moon rise over the Kennebec River from a very private deck, this house is perfect. Very easy walking to the small but sufficient commercial part of town. Wonderful Maine Maritime Museum that has to be experienced to be believed. And short drives to Freeport, Portland, or Wiscasset (Red’s and Sprague’s have the best lobster rolls). Ultra-prompt replies to any questions we sent to Host. We would definitely return.

    Nice quiet street that's walking distance to downtown. The back patio facing the water was so relaxing. Beds were comfortable. Water pressure was awesome. I spent way too much time looking at the wonderful memorabilia everywhere.

    We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. We walked to town most every day and very much enjoyed morning coffee and breakfast on the deck. One morning a bald eagle spent some time in nearby tree! The cottage was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed.

    We had a lovely stay here in quaint Bath. The house was very clean and cozy, very Maine. The owner was very responsive when we had an issue with the fridge.

    The house was perfect for a home base! Big enough for 4 adults! Rooms were a great size and the bathroom was nice. The deck and back yard were a bit if a let down. The deck was small and could use some touch ups! The yard needs to be cleared out. Would be nice to be able to get to the water! Perfect location though to walk into town!
