Merwick Cottage is perched atop a rise overlooking the Sheepscot Bay. Enjoy panoramic views and ocean breezes from the deck and its generously windowed interior. Look for the osprey nest on the channel marker in front of Merwick Cottage, close enough to watch the nestlings grow up over the summer. Much like Merwick's owners, the ospreys keep coming back - just like we hope you will!
__________________________________________________
THE HOUSE:Merwick Cottage is a two-story contemporary home overlooking Sheepscot Bay and the open Atlantic Ocean. Views can be enjoyed from the living room, master bedroom, and the two open decks. The expansive lawn slopes away from the house and down to the private dock, float and 200’ of rocky shoreline.
First Floor: The open concept design includes a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and a living area with sliding glass doors to an open deck with another spectacular set of views! The living area includes a Roku TV with Paramount+ subscription. The master bedroom has a queen bed and sliders to an open deck. Also on this floor are two additional bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with two single beds (can be converted to a king) and a full bathroom. Lower Level: Features the washer/dryer and a 3/4 bathroom with shower - after a dip in the ocean feel free to rinse off down here!
Head on down to your private dock and float with over 200 feet of rocky shore-front to enjoy watching the comings and goings of lobster boats and elegant yachts. Bring your own boats or rent locally for a spectacular day of exploration along this beautiful stretch of rocky coastline. Fish, swim, float or simply relax. There are miles of hiking and biking trails in Georgetown and more on preserved lands throughout the Mid-coast area. PLEASE NOTE: Float is available mid-June to mid-September only

We had the most enjoyable week at the Merwick Cottage. The weather was perfect and we loved watching the Ospreys from the deck. We spent many hours kayaking and even saw seals! We also loved the hummingbirds zipping around the deck. The kitchen was very well equipped which made cooking a joy.

#10: The only comment we have is the sheets are noisy and crinkly overtime you move. I have had sheets like that and not amount of Bounce will change that!
#17: The only other comment is dust under the guest bed. Would be an issue for someone with allergies.

Although it was hard at times to reach someone when I did I found them very friendly and helpful.

I thought the house and the view was very nice. I was nervous about the mention of the sulfur smell but as indicated it did disappear. Otherwise I believe it would have been a problem. When we used the heat it kept the house cozy. Loved waking up for the sunrise, lobster boats and birds!! After site seeing it was a pleasure to come back to the house and relax on the deck again.

When you plan a memorable event that will last a life time, you want to have Lucy in your corner. she was unbelievable, constantly going the extra mile to insure that our special day was perfect, and it was. I have recommended her to a lot of people that are looking for that personal touch and is so lacking in this new world. By the time it was all said and done we felt that we were family, that type of person is an attribute to any company and I am sure that you feel the same. Give a hug from me and Donna to Lucy.

Donna & I were looking for a place that would be spectacular in location and cozy in atmosphere. It was our wedding week and we planned to eat, drink and be merry, which we were able to do very nicely with this cottages location and the homes layout. The whole house felt like our home away from home.

The view was great and we had a great time! We celebrated our honeymoon in the old place in 1980 and came to Merwick to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary. The place looks great. Many fond memories.
