Oceanfront Cabin-Castle in Maine Woods

A genuine Maine experience - a cabin that emerges from the woods from which it was built (or so I like to imagine.). Sitting in a rocker watching the sea is a delight, and this portion of coastline (Robinhood Bay, Five Islands Bay, Reid State Park) is splendid. The open plan first floor is wonderful. We were delighted all week, but I was a little relieved I didn't bring my ancient parents - managing the stairs and bedroom/bathroom arrangements is not for frail elderly, and I think perhaps the description might mention this. But this is a minor quibble - as regards everything else, a perfect Maine hideaway.

Awesome pure Maine experience! Just as perfect as can be! Five Islands lobster clams & ice cream to top it off!

The host responds quickly to questions. The view of the sea is spectacular and the property is secluded. We were comfortable and enjoyed the walk to Reid State Park which has beaches. We had a wonderful stay and hope we can come back!

I rented the oceanfront castle for my 2 kids and myself for a little unplugged getaway. It was perfect! It was spacious, yet cozy at the same time. The kids had fun exploring inside and outside. The kitchen had just about everything you could need, including all kinds of different, lovely dishes and glassware. We all felt very fancy. The bedrooms were comfortable and there was lots of storage. Listening to the ocean waves while falling asleep was the most wonderful way to end our days. It was clean and had rustic charm. We loved exploring and climbing around the rocks by the ocean. It was a great location, away, yet easy to get to places like a grocery store. We took a little trip to the Maine Maritime Museum one day as well. Overall, it was exactly the magical experience I was looking for, for my little family!

This cabin was magic- right on the rocks of coastal Maine with a homey, cozy, unique vibe. Perfect for our “unplugged” spring break.

Absolutely charming quirky old camp.

Great unique place

Amazing stay!

The cabin was awesome. We enjoyed our long weekend stay there a lot. It’s also super close to Reid state park which has some great not too challenging trails. Highly recommended for anyone looking for simple nature getaway with amazing views.

Amazing and unique location and castle-cabin on the sea! A true Maine gem. Loved the ease of walking to Reid park and the beach.

Such a special place - the house itself, the location next to Reid, the ocean right outside, the privacy. We loved it.

Our visit to Maine was to celebrate some big birthdays, and we wanted a very special place. The house and location were the stars of the trip. It’s kind of hard to describe how this area and being able to stay in this house made us feel. It was as if we were being welcomed into a family that we almost, but didn’t know, but wish we had. Every nook and corner of the house has something special, and it all adds up to just feeling very lucky that we were able to spend time here. It was hard to leave. Thank you Micah and the rest of your family for opening up this very special place to strangers. I kind of think it would’ve made your mom and dad happy.

Sun, waves and stars. Very good for the soul.

Great location. Great view. Great house!

My husband and I and our Golden Retriever spent four magical days in September at this unique and most interesting home. Situated at the end of a dirt road, surrounded by forest, perched above a rocky slope leading down to the ocean, there is a feeling of being nurtured and protected from the outside world, yet minutes away from civilization when desired. From the first early sunrise views of land, sea, and sky to the tranquil setting sun at night, the outside scene was captivating, including the haunting calls of loons at night and the hammering of a pileated woodpecker at the woodpile in the driveway. We enjoyed the rustic,  comfortable and creative interior that’s filled with eclectic furniture, a vast variety of books, rocks and shells, pottery, and other interesting items that made it an adventure to explore. Right next to Reid State Park, a short drive to several excellent restaurants, and a half-hour to hour drive to other points of interest, the Hall House was a real find, the most unique of many great places we’ve stayed at in our visits to Maine. Thank you, Micah and family, for sharing it!

Amazing eclectic cabin! Breathtaking scenery from almost all windows of the home. Short walk to the state park and beach. 30 minute drive to lots of restaurants. Cozy beds! Loved every minute!

The location and views are phenomenal, as is the energy. I like to reconnect with what is actually important in this world on vacations, and this is the ideal place for such remembering and reorienting. There is even an impressive library for nature and social justice to help out.

Amazing views and good location

We loved are stay at this beautiful rustic oceanfront home. The large windows along the entire ocean side of the house were a highlight. We view of water, boats, wildlife; sounds of waves on the rocks right outside; and ocean air were at once both invigorating and peaceful. We slept in the loft room and watched the sunrise over the ocean from bed. It was glorious. I love cooking and the kitchen was very well equipped to both cook and serve large meals. It was fun to climb on the rocks down the shore a bit to visit the adjacent state park beach, and we loved the trails through the woods. The collection of books in the home was impressive and captivating to explore.

First rate location and view. We saw seals, ducks, and porpoises right from the living room! It is the last house before Reid State Park, which was wonderful. It was fun to climb down on the rocks in front of the house. The cabin is rustic and has a lot of unique decorations. As such, dust has accumulated a bit on some of those things. However, the linens were clean and the kitchen and bath areas were as well. Bring your own toilet paper as they don't technically supply it. I could not find this information in the listing, however, so here's a heads up. Thankfully there was an emergency supply! We enjoyed our stay.

We loved the quirkiness of the property and all the rooms. The catwalk to my room was fun. We never found the 'path' to the beach but did use the provided beach pass. We would have loved a spot to sit outside in the sun. We saw seals and porpoises right in front of the property. Views are stunning.

Amazing property and location - just exactly what we were looking for - walking or driving to the beach every day - listening to the ocean and walking on the rocks and through the woods - truly magical.

Thanks to the Hall's for opening there home to us. This place is within a short hike to Reid State Park which means not only did we have a great veiw of rhe ocean from the house but we also took advantage of the 1 mile beach at the end of the driveway. There were plenty of things in the house for a comfortable day at the beach. We enjoyed seeing seals right from the living room and watching the sunrises from the big rocks at the waters edge. All in all a great stay.

The uniqueness of the cabin made it an amazing place to stay. We loved the view out the windows to the rocks and water. We climbed the rocks every day and took all the way to Reid State Park (don’t forget to bring park pass). Five Island Lobster is a must to get fresh lobster brought in by the fisherman. Met a couple from Maine that lived 2 hours away and they said it was the best lobster in Maine. It was amazing the whole 1.75 lbs lobster. Did a 3 hour drive to Acadia National Park. We loved our whole experience here and highly recommend.

This home offers a stunning oceanfront location with a bouldery beach and amazing access to Reid State Park with miles of beaches and trails. The rustic house offers great views and sounds of the ocean wherever you are and is cozy but spacious. It feels like you are staying at Grandma's house in a beautiful way. The house holds fascinating collections of books, rocks and other items and is truly one of a kind. We did find the Internet access and cell signal spotty at times, but was enough for basic tasks and our purpose for the stay was to enjoy the ocean and area trails. Micah was easy to communicate with and we really enjoyed our stay.

What a beautiful location. This property will leave instant memories for anyone who stays here. The house is such a cool piece of history with little nooks and crannies filled with vintage items. The kitchen is very user friendly and has almost everything needed to prepare a family meal in. The large windows allowed us to sit and just watch the waves and birds pass by. The living space spilled out onto the side deck with plenty of shade and the sea breeze to keep us cool. Upstairs the bedrooms were decent sized as was the bathroom. The bathroom was fully stocked and ready for us to use. Reid State Park, being right next door was an awesome place to wander at night with our dog, just not on the beach per the rules of the park. We had an enjoyable dinner in the park one night as well. We are already planning for our next visit. The owner of the property is very quick to answer any questions.

Property has an amazing view. The waves sound amazing crashing into the shore. Super close access to state park. Cabin is rustic and original. We enjoyed the outdoors. Thanks for sharing your home.

Beautiful property with amazing views and location.

A very unique property with an unbeatable view. While it is rustic, if you’re looking to get back in touch with nature and enjoy the simple things, this is the perfect place to do so. We had a wonderful time… thank you Hall family!

loved our short stay here...such a fun house to explore..Reid Park.is amazing and beautiful..though do watch out for poison ivy along the paths!

Every thing was great. The beds were comfortable, and lots of comfortable chairs to set in as you enjoy an absolutely wonderful view. Communication with the host was quick and easy. I am not sure that I would make the drive from Alabama to Maine again but, if I do I would most certainly stay here again.

Place was amazing with an incredible view and fun layout.

This was exactly what we needed. Peaceful and and super unique property with an excellent view. We loved having the state park right next door!

The pictures don’t do it justice. This place is amazing and everywhere you look there is another interesting object, stone, nook… So many books! The view, falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean was heavenly. Then you have the park that you can walk or drive too or if you’re adventurous you can simply walk the rocks right over. Best Easter ever!!

The house was exactly what we were hoping for -- right on the ocean, close to long beach walks, with delicious food nearby. Loved using the wood stove! The host was very responsive to our various questions and requests. We'd love to return!

This cabin is something incredibly singular and special. It is imbued with the legacy of the Hall family, and you can read their history as you explore the house. The view is unbelievable - waking up, going downstairs, and being that close to the ocean is so peaceful. We could have spent a month reading as nearly every room is a library. The kitchen is stocked with some great old cast irons and lobster pots for whatever one would need. The China and dining wear even had character and personality. This place is truly a gift, and we thank Micah and the Hall family for opening their doors to guests like us. We take the peace and joyful energy of this place with us. We hope to return someday.

Excellent place to stay! My adult daughters and I had a great mid-week get-a-way at your place. It was warm and welcoming. We loved being steps away from Reid State Park. Well equipped kitchen, the woodstove was lovely. Thanks!

Absolutely loved this property! My family and I enjoyed every minute of our stay! Listening to the waves crashing on the rocks, hanging out by the fire and just relaxing made for the perfect after Christmas getaway! I look forward to coming again! Highly recommend

Loved it! In

Unique cabin with an amazing view of ocean ,and a great natural walk through the pines !! Had a great time cooking thanksgiving dinner and relaxing with family and pups . Absolutely loved it there !!

We had a great time during our stay. Very fun and unique placeb to stay. We had a little pine squirrel make his way into the house with us somehow, but the host was very understanding and it didnt take away from our stay at all. Thanks, Micah, we hope to be back.

This place is an amazing rustic time capsule. It takes me way back to vacations spent in a rustic cabin on the Allegheny River, except magnified 10 times. Surrounded first by the Maine woods, next the ocean vs the river, ocean wins every time. Once inside, you are wrapped in warm pine panels everywhere. True rustic construction and decoration seldom found anymore. Add a wood stove and views out every window. We found it hard to leave for home. We are already planning our next stay.

Such a great location! And the house is rustic heaven! Everything needed to provide a great vacation! I was able to do some fishing out front, caught a mackerel, some harbor pollock and a blue fish. Had a seal come and investigate while I was casting. We had two white sided dolphin swim by. Also saw a fisher looking for dinner in the nooks and crannys of the rocks. Overall, my kind of heaven!

We enjoyed a week of beautiful sun rises, the lulling waves, and peaceful walks in Reid state park. If you are looking for a recharge of your nature battery, this is it.
