Charming Antique Cape, Water View, Historic Castine, Penobscot Bay.

I loved this cottage, very charming. The only thing I had a problem with was the uneven walkway for my disabled husband. BUT…that was my fault for not checking if it was handicap accessible. There was a very comfortable bedroom and full bath on the first floor, and with a little help he managed just fine.The host was very responsive when we had a minor problem and all was well quickly.We loved being right in Castine, quiet but close to everything.

Wonderful, helpful hosts....

This was the second time that my wife and I stayed at this wonderful cottage. It is a beautiful spot and we continue to enjoy staying here. The view of Thatch Cove, with the continuous cycling of the tides is very relaxing. This is coastal Maine at its best! We will be back!

Rose Cottage is quintessential charming old Maine!! The cottage is exactly as drscribed, & the owner was most kind & responsive. We were a family of 5 and enjoyed our stay as our needs were fully met.

We had a wonderful stay at this adorable cottage. The cottage is so charming with its wood floors and light filled rooms. The view was probally one of our favorite things about the cottage along with a little chipmonk who came to visit every morning on the porch to eat from the rose bushes. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need. The cottage is so close to in-town Castine with all it's wonderful history. We enjoyed grabbing a breakfast sandwich and a coffee from the shops and sitting under the covered picnic benches on the dock to watch the boats come in. The beach was definitely one of the highlights of our trip and it is less than a 2 minute drive from the cottage. The location of the cottage is also great. We were able to visit many other towns including Bar Harbor, Camden and Deer Isle to name a few. Constance and Steve were wonderful and friendly host. They made check in and out a breeze. We truly enjoyed our time here!

We loved the location, the ease of getting to the center of Castine and to the beach at Wadsworth Cove. The house was very comfortable and clean, and had plenty of space. It was perfect.

Stayed here for 4 days and had a wonderful time seeing our son after 6 weeks at MMA. House was perfect and just what we needed. The profile says it all. It is a storybook cottage with views of the cove and even had a wonderful apple tree with apples all over it. Other reviews talk about the road and it smelling old. None of this was true at all. Never heard a single car and felt after pulling in the driveway that you were miles away from reality. Is it an older cottage, yes but that is what makes it amazing. This is what you would picture a Maine cottage to be. Only hope we can stay again sometime soon. It was hard to say goodbye not only to our son but to the cottage as we head back south to realty!

My wife and I had a great stay! Castine is a good location to travel from to visit Acadia National Park north of our location and to visit many villages south of our location. All of these locations are on fjords attached to the Atlantic ocean. Our leased cottage was on a bay that gave us excellent views.

The home is wonderful. Its cozy and has marvelous views of the cove from the deck. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you will need. It was a perfect layout for us. My elderly mother stayed in the bedroom on the first floor and had access to her own bathroom. My husband and I stayed on the second floor with our own bathroom. The rooms were flooded with natural sunlight and great air flow. We are excited to come back to Castine and stay again. We were close to town so we could see the sites and visit with our extended family. It was a truly magical week! I highly recommend this home to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

We three stayed at the house for five nights. Because we arrived late in the evening, Constance left lights on and house unlocked. There was a vase of fresh flowers welcoming us. We spent a day in Castine, a day in Acadia National Park, and made two trips to Deer Isle and Stonington to meet friends and eat lobsters. We cooked a couple of meals and ate breakfast everyday in house. Everything worked as well as expected.

We loved our stay! Great hosts, house, town / location. We had a really nice time. Thank you!

ENJOYED OUR STAY AND HAD A BEAUTIFUL VIEW. SAT ON THE DECK IN THE MONING DRINKING OUR COFFE AND LOOKING AT THE THE WATER AND JUST RELAXING. WOULD BOOK AGAIN.
