Located on Gun Point Road in picturesque Harpswell, set back from the bustle of summer traffic, Morningside awaits your vacationing family. Located 25' from the water's edge it is the perfect refuge for those looking to get away for vacation.

Whether it is the quiet serenity of a morning sunrise, evening moon rise, or sitting on the house deck viewing bald eagles, ospreys, seals, loons, or sea gulls the view is always in tune with mother nature. Morningside has large interior windows from the ground floor and 2nd floor OPEN LOFT. These eastern windows give every area of the home great views of the inlets and coves of Quahog Bay.

At Morningside you will find the ground floor with a full sized bathroom , fully stocked kitchen, a bedroom (queen bed), a dining area table for 6, and a living room area with furniture that just invites comfort and relaxation.

Upstairs you will find TWO OPEN LOFT bedrooms. PLEASE NOTE: You must walk through the 1st bedroom to access the Primary Bedroom. A portable room divider is provided for sight privacy between the two bedrooms. At the top of the stairs you will find the 1st bedroom with a Queen bed.. This room faces directly east allowing guests to watch the sunrise from the comfort of their room.

Continue through the 1st bedroom into the Primary Bedroom Loft Area. This Primary Bedroom Area offers a king size bed and great views from every window. The Primary Bedroom area also offers a door leading out onto a balcony. Here guests may step out and listen to the birds in the morning or watch the stars at night.

Between these two open-loft bedrooms is a beautiful, full-sized bathroom. All bed linens and towels are provided.

Morningside's kitchen has a dishwasher, toaster oven, microwave, Keurig and drip coffee makers. Outside you will find a propane grill to cook on. The laundry room has a stackable washer and dryer. Wi-Fi and cable TV with HBO are also available.

    Great location and the view is amazing! We loved sitting on the deck and watching the birds and seals. The two upstairs bedrooms do not have a door between them but this was not a problem for us. We would definitely stay again!

    We loved it! Views for days. Very bright and open. Loved that it was dog friendly. We were very pleasantly surprised at how well stocked everything was. We had a great time cooking and eating while enjoying the view. We would highly recommend!!!

    It was a very nice house with a good view and everything in it worked as it should. My biggest complaint was that the living room smelled like dog urine BAD. I sprayed everything with some odor eliminator I found and after a couple days it was livable. Outside of that, the back patio lock is a bear & the king bed needs a new mattress but nothing is perfect so those are just notes, not complaints.

    Overall, this is a very nice location. The view is second to none. Getting to it can be a challenge, although, because you are near the end of a long dirt road, there are few cars that pass and it is quiet. There are stairs (of course, so you can get to the master bedroom and bath) but they are narrow, be prepared to take luggage up one at a time. The house was clean and comfortable and all the windows were very clean (which helps with taking in the wonderful view). My biggest issue would be the water, be prepared to bring bottled water, drinking the water out of the tap is not recommended. There is a water cooler in the kitchen with a large water bottle that is available, but you could really go thru that quickly if you used it for cooking as well as drinking. Except for the water, this is a perfectly quiet and relaxing place to go.

    Great house and we especially loved the location. The view out the window was spectacular every morning. One day, a couple of bald eagles graced us with their presence across the channel. We enjoyed several hikes and several offerings of the islands.

    House is perfectly located for a low-key, relaxing vacation. It’s well stocked and very clean. We loved sitting out on the deck and just enjoying the view. Definitely plan to return!

    We had a great time staying at Sebascodegan Island! The porch overlooking the water is beautiful and the house was very clean and well stocked. It’s a very quiet and peaceful property and we’d love to come back sometime.

    This property is close enough to places to visit but is a quiet residential setting. The deck and spectacular view is what sold it for us. We brought 2 medium dogs who spent most of the time at the house on the deck. The property manager is available and responsive.

    When we got there the plugs along one wall were not working. The property manager came and brought us extension cords to plug in lamp and electronics. The stove in kitchen should be replaced. Vent hood was nasty with grease etc. and one burner didn’t work on outdated stove. The burners looked pretty bad. This is a beautiful place and we enjoyed our stay but just needs some care.
