    Overlook Cottage is quaint & cozy, but very modernized. Loved the filtered water option for sustainability and use of our water bottles. Favorite for our family: utilizing the screened in porch & deck and waking up to each morning to a gorgeous centered view of Penobscot Bay, meandering the rocky shore, or ending the night with a view of a million stars. Pamela & family provide many staple amenities and easy access to a local farmers coop or grocery store in Belfast. Our local contact, Donna, was wonderful and efficient to help with a small tech issue. We hope to return to Overlook Cottage time and time again. Great base camp for all adventures in any direction! Thank you for sharing this lovely cottage for our summer family holiday!

    This cottage was perfect for my party of 3 visiting the Maine coast. Wonderful view of ocean/bay! Very clean and cozy- plenty of blankets and towels etc. This was close to things to do like Moose State Park and Belfast shops and restaurants. Access to beach walks was 1 min stroll across the lawn. The owner was responsive and this place was so special. We loved sitting out on the screened porch. Thank you!

    Absolutely perfect! The cottage was so lovely and relaxing. We felt at home immediately. The beds were really comfortable, the shower was fabulous, the screened in porch was our favorite spot, and the view was fantastic! Pamela was so gracious and thought of everything. Would definitely stay again.

    This was the quintessential Maine cottage experience and I'm so sad we had to leave this morning! Cozy, clean, with all the modern amenities you need and thoughtful touches everywhere you look. Super soft towels and blankets, lovely soap/lotion, a plethora of books, functional TV (silly but this isn't always the case and we had two football games to watch!), beautiful coffee cups... We didn't get to sit on the porch much but the view was great and the beach was an easy walk. Loved this place so much!

    The best part about this cottage was the great view of the bay from the screened in porch! It was a quiet and peaceful location, but also close enough to Belfast to easily access restaurants and groceries. It was a perfect home base for exploring the mid coast of Maine. Check in was simple and Pamela provided not only necessary, but many extra amenities.

    Spent a week with my family and we had the best time. The cottage was thoughtfully set up with everything we would need including firewood. My kids loved running through the lawn and walking down to the beach. We also enjoyed going into Belfast to explore the shops and food scene. And it was an easy day trip to Acadia! We want to come back next summer.

    We loved our stay at this property! It was so clean and comfortable and felt very homey! The view of Belfast Bay from the screened porch was the icing on the cake. We prepared a lot of our own meals, and the kitchen was well-equipped for our needs. The home was in the just-right location for our explorations of Midcoast and Down East Maine.

    This is a lovely little cottage which sits at the top of a slope on a beautiful bay. The only issue we had was a short lived loss of water pressure due to a water main break up the street. The owner was quick to find out where the issue was and let us know the city was working to have it restored. They had it repaired within an hour or so & we were back in business!! The cottage was very welcoming and provided us with all the comfort we needed during our stay. I would highly recommend this owner & this cottage for anyone visiting this area!!

    We really enjoyed the views from the deck . The screened in porch is wonderful too. Just the perfect size for the two of us. Belfast is a lovely town and easy to drive around in. We are from a small town so we really appreciate the slower traffic.
