Historic oceanfront farmhouse has been home to our family for three generations. It has a charm and warmth not easy to find in many rentals. The ocean views from the house are spectacular, as are the beaches. On the south side is a field and forest leading to the river and ocean. A path leads down to the beach, where it’s easy to get lost exploring. On warmer days it’s an excellent swimming spot, with warmer water than usually found along the ocean. Walk a little further at low tide and sandy (some rocky) clam-flats spread wide and far. Perfect for kids.

The kitchen is fully stocked. There’s an antique gas stove (which works well) along with a microwave, and dishwasher. There’s a TV and wireless internet. Upstairs has a bedroom with two single beds, and bathroom with a tub. The first floor has two bedrooms, one with two single beds, and one with a full size bed. There’s also a bathroom with shower on the first floor.

Our property is located with a unique wildlife habitat.

Camden is seven miles to the south, and Belfast is eleven miles to the north, and fifteen miles to Rockland. Camden Hills State Park is close by as are hiking trails to Mt. Battie.

Note: Our home sits close to the road on the non-ocean side. We have air fresheners that create white noise to help with traffic sounds. There is a washer and dryer accessed by walking out the back door and down steps into an unfinished cellar. Our family still happily lives here through July and August.

    Quirky old family home located at the entry of the Ducktrap River. Really wonderful host made us feel at home. Nice central location to visit Camden,Belfast, and Rockland. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Host provided coffee from local roaster upon arrival. Beautiful grounds with access to trail to rocky beach at low tide. Located in wildlife corridor, we saw turkey and eagle passing through.

    Absolutely beautiful location and view. A really fun, quirky old house surrounded by beautiful water views and gardens. The kitchen with the 1950's gas range with built in griddle was fabulous!

    We loved the house which felt like a welcoming family home. There is easy access to the ocean and it is close to Belfast and Camden. There were four of us. Two adults, two teens and we each found our space. The view of the water from the house was wonderful. Chris was a terrific host and very responsive to questions. Would most definitely return.

    The views are wonderful, felt like Anne of Green Gables. Fantastic waking up to the view of the river and the wild flowers in the field. The house is old and has its quirks, but we like old houses. The main issue we had was the smell of propane from the antique gas stove. It was quite bad when we arrived so we asked the host to turn the propane off until the next day when the utility company could come and inspect it which meant no hot shower that night after a long day of travel. We seriously considered staying elsewhere but could not find anything in the area with availability for our entire stay. We slept with the windows opened the entire stay so there would be adequate ventilation. The host did install a carbon monoxide/ explosive gas detector the next day so that helped ease our worries a bit but we still did not use the stove or close the windows. Also, be aware there is no key to the home, the doors do not have locks - apparently that’s a common thing in the area, took getting used to.

    The manager, Chris, was very help, friendly and accommodating. The place fit our needs perfectly. We didn't take advantage of all the property has to offer because of our limited time. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks for everything Chris

    This is a very old home. One of the bedrooms downstairs must walk through the 1st bedroom to reach the bathroom. 2nd bedroom has no room for a suitcase. had to keep ours in the dining room. The host was very attentive and kind. The family has great pride in this old home.

    Quaint Grandparent's 1920 home with lots of family memories. Well equipped kitchen with older pots and pans and gas stove. The larger bedroom up only has a tub. Shower down has good hot water. Enjoyed walking down to the river by the property through the woods. Chris met us on arrival and lives close by. Had a great stay.
