Sweet cottage on Cape Rosier

The house was so cute! It was very cozy and worked perfect for our trip. The bathroom situation could be an issue for more than a couple people that aren’t incredibly comfortable with each other as the bathroom is in the main bedroom. The location was great, super quiet and dark so there was excellent star gazing. A slight warning that there does appear to be a porcupine(we named him Fuzzy) living on the property, he was often near the backdoor when we came home in the evenings. There were no issues, but if you travel with children or animals it’s good to be aware. The kitchen was set up well, washer and dryer worked great, plenty of hot water. I definitely recommend making time to sit by the fire pit and relax. I wish I could have stayed longer!

It felt like a home away from home!!

Charming cottage, perfect for two people. Well stocked, had everything we needed. Great guidebook with a list of things to see and do in the area as well!

It fit us perfectly! Loved all Gods beauty so close to us. Will probably return again.

Everything was ideal, very cozy, clean, everything we needed to feel like home.

Cottage was cute & the location was very peaceful. We had a great time!

Cute property which unfortunately had a carpenter ant problem. Homeowner was responsive & sent someone to spray. There was a problem with the shower (tight space and there was a leak in the pipe which sprayed water out if not covered with towel).

We enjoyed staying at the lovely cottage. It was convenient to Sedgwick, Little Deer Isle and Stonington where we have family and friends. The host was not onsite but responded to all inquiries immediately which is a 100% plus! We recommend staying at the Cottage on Cape Rosier. It is very quaint and peaceful!

Really enjoyed our stay here. Cottage is very cozy and well stocked with everything. Kitchen great for cooking plus gas grill outside. Lots of cool towns and parks to explore nearby

Although it was a bit further out than we realized, the cottage was quaint, cozy and so peaceful!! We had a wonderful stay!

Loved the location of this quiet cottage on secluded Cape Rosier - but close to destinations on Deer Isle and Brooksville/Castine. Chef kitchen and onsite laundry made the stay easy with a family. Will be back!

The hosts have decorated the historical cottage so as to make it charming. It's an older house and if you are bigger and/or older like me, you need to use some caution on the staircase. The whole area has a lot of small farms and I made use of the cozy kitchen several times to prepare meals with the booty I brought home from area farm stands as well as the Blue Hill co-op. The laundry at the cottage was convenient. Beyond area farms, there was a lot to see there in the area including Bakeman Beach, the reversing Goose Falls at the the southern edge of the Holbrook Island Sanctuary, Bagaduce Lunch at the reversing falls of the Bagaduce River, the wharf in Stonington harbor and the nearby Sand Beach. Despite being a coastal area that was first settled perhaps 200 years ago, it remains wonderfully unspoiled, and there are even a fair number of dirt roads to be found winding their way through the fields and forests adjacent to the coast. Don't be surprised if you see a deer or osprey or other wild creatures that still make their living just fine in this area of many islands and snug harbors lined by granite ledges. The region is a little isolated, but for those who like to explore natural places, that's also the best part, and I found that the more that I saw, the more it impressed me :-).

Quiet place, perfect for a vacation.

If you are looking for an authentic Maine-Stay this is it! Places like this add flavor to a visit to Maine and have become something of a tradition for me. The cottage is located on Cape Rosier in a lovely and quiet part of coastal Maine. If you enjoy hiking or kayaking, Holbrook Island Sanctuary is close by and several other great places to hike are within easy driving distance. The cottage is exactly what you'd expect for a small turn-of-the-20th century coastal Maine home. The home was clean and there were comfortable beds and furniture, and modern appliances. An AC would have been nice, if not necessary, for the 90F weather we had during some days of our trip. Both bedrooms and the bathroom are upstairs and the stairs are also period Maine - steep and open. In my mind, this adds to the authenticity and charm, but for older folks, the stairs might be a bit daunting! Really loved our stay - the first trip to Maine for my adult daughter who was looking for some quiet time and a place to get outdoors and away from her medical residency program. She found both! We had a great time and our hosts, while never seen, were attentive to our needs, right down to the jar of Nervous Nellie's blueberry jam in the frig when we arrived! We hope to be back soon!
