Lubec, Maine
Unparallel views, 24+ foot tides (worlds highest) whales, seals and eagles can be seen from your deck, bedrooms and Living room; along with the best sunsets in all of Lubec! Halibut House and Lobster Lair (our two historic cottages), sit on a bayfront acre of land that is securely fenced for you and your pets enjoyment and saftey. Halibut House has a king bed in loft (master) and a pull out twin in the livingroom, a quaint, well appointed kitchen, hi-speed internet, smart TV and a bathroom. Lobster Lair is a guest cottage with a queen bed and TV, it shares a bath with the main cabin; both cabins are yours! Located in USA’s northeastern most city and a mere 1 mile walk to downtown, and the Canadian border island of Campobello. The Bay of Fundy is an amazing place for family, friends and pets!
Best part is the location, a large deck overlooking Johnson Bay--seals, loons, scoters, and other birds. Close to downtown Lubec, Campobello Island, West Quoddy lighthouse and trails, and the amazing network of trails developed by Cobscook Shores and other land trusts. We had a few snafus checking in and getting the wi-fi set-up, but our host Angela was very responsive and prompt in getting things fixed up and provided us lots of information of things to do. Great yard for dogs - thanks! The cottage would be small for more than 2 people and the stairs to the bedroom are narrow and steep, and the bathroom small, but otherwise the cottage is well-appointed, Everything you need.
My wife and I stayed at the Halibut House for 5 days to celebrate our anniversary and get away from the hustle and bustle for a little while. From the start Angela was very good with communication. Whenever I had a question she was quick to reply which was very helpful. The town is a quaint fishing port on Johnson bay. There’s lots of things to do in the area. We went digging for soft shell clams, went on a whale watch, explored the lighthouses of the area, plus more. We loved the Halibut House. The fenced in yard was amazing for our 5# puppy. He had a blast running free!!! The views of the western horizon are amazing at sunset. The house was stocked with just about everything you need. We bought local lobsters and brought our own meats and veggies to make a clam/lobster boil which was awesome!!! Overall the stay was great!!! Thank you to Angela and Sophie for all the information and work that is put into making sure our stay was great!!! We’ll be back!!!
Quaint little cottage right on the bay. Spectacular views including sunsets. Lovely, large deck with comfortable seating. Beautiful bay view from inside also. Two comfortable chairs allow you to enjoy the views! The queen size bed is in a cozy loft. The stairs could be a bit challenging for an elderly guest. Bathroom is a bit tiny. Everything you need for the kitchen is supplied. Large enclosed yard for pets or kids. Several nice restaurants in the town center. Lovely breeze at night. Very relaxing time away!
The view of water is 10/10!! Even saw an eagle fly right over the house !
We loved Halibut House! We went with friends and brought our dogs. The house is adorable with a wonderful waterfront location. The yard is large and fully fenced in, which was great for the dogs. The town has a few restaurants and a brewery, which we enjoyed. Everything Lubec has to offer is a mile or less from the rental. The town itself is a bit sleepy, but it was nice being forced to slow down and relax. The owner and the caretaker are wonderful to deal with and extremely responsive. I would highly recommend this rental.
Cozy cabin was just the relaxing vacation we needed. Wonderful views of the bay, host was very helpful and accommodating. Would go back tomorrow.
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this Lubec gem. The cottage was super close to everything in town. We loved having the main bedroom upstairs and the “bunkhouse” next door for the kids. It was a relaxing low key space and a great property for dogs (fully fenced in). We highly recommend, thank you!
Slept well & awoke every morning to wonderful sunrises & perfect view of sunsets.
Nothing better than sitting on the porch watching the sun set! The Halibut House is a wonderful place to unwind.
We had a lovely four nights at The Halibut House in early June. The property was as described. Perfect cute cottage for the two of us and our pup. Loved the decor and it had everything we needed. The deck is perfect for drinks in the evening and breakfast in the morning. The view was AMAZING! The sunsets were beautiful and the view of Johnson Bay was spectacular. Loved the fenced yard for the dog and it was much larger than we expected. Loved the Lubec area. We are looking forward to another visit and will stay here again!
Pet friendly, our two dogs had a blast. Small cottage but came with all the amenities needed. We enjoyed our stay in spite of the rainy weather. Lots of hiking trails around the area and a chocolate shop just down the road. What more could you ask for? Scenic area with lots to explore. Only a short distance to Campobello Island.
Cozy little place right on the water. Would definitely return and we truly loved our stay. Stairs would be a difficult to navigate for someone older or with limited mobility. Only one improvement that I can think of even suggesting would be to recommend a new mattress soon. But not a deal breaker! All other positives about the cabin offset. The owner was wonderful to work with and this is truly one of those places we hope to return too often. We loved it so much!
We had such a nice relaxing stay!! To be able to take our pups and enjoy such a beautiful spot , was priceless!! Thank you for sharing your home with us!!
Couldn’t have been better. Having our whole family together (including those with four legs) in a perfectly situated cottage made for an ideal vacation in a lovely town.
These adorable properties are small but by no means spartan; plenty of comfortable places to curl up, all the “little touches” you can think of, and a very responsive owner and property manager. No “buts;” we loved it.
We were 1 adult and 2 teens, and stayed a week. The cottage was clean and well appointed. The view of the bay from the cottage is beautiful, and it was beyond relaxing and peaceful to sit on the deck and watch the sunset each night. There are so many hiking trails just minutes away, and most of the time we had the trails to ourselves. The cottage is a great location for a base camp for day trips, and to come back and relax each night. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us!
This is a great place to stay with so much character and charm... the cabin and the town!
Beautiful and dog friendly property with bay access from property. Amazing views. Full kitchen, and confortable beds.
Our family of 4 stayed the week. Views are fantastic. Kayaking in Bay was outstanding. Abundance of wildlife (saw whales, seals, fox, eagles, and more). Kids (and us adults) had fun exploring beach collecting treasures like beach glass and special stones. Overall, would not hesitate to recommend or stay again ourselves.
Overall, it was a good stay with a great view from the deck. The fenced in dog yard was a big draw for us. The stairs going up to the bedroom was not doable for our dog though.
These sweet cottages are perched on a knoll with a beautiful view of the ocean. They are small, but with well thought out use of space. We were a group of 3 adults and were very comfortable. It’s close to town for restaurants and food shopping. The owner was very helpful and answered all of my questions promptly. We are already thinking about a return trip in the fall!
Very amenable and accommodating owner. We were her 1st renters and she quickly dealt with the typical hiccups with a new process. DOG OWNERS REJOICE! Fenced yard kept the 4 legged guests super happy. The spectacular view kept the humans happy. Lubec (think loobec with the emphasis on bec, like Quebec)is a lovely spot with lots of Maine things to do. If you like outdoor activity, local seafood, and relaxed no fuss atmosphere then this is your place.
