THIS HOME RENTS WITH A 7-NIGHT MINIMUM, JUNE-LABOR DAY
4 NIGHT STAYS AVAILABLE IN THE FALL

A beautiful, contemporary waterfront property recently featured in House Beautiful magazine, sitting among the salty pines is ready for you to settle in for a memorable Maine Vacation. This five-bedroom, four-bath home is equipped with all modern amenities and has updated decor throughout. Enjoy picturesque water views, stunning sunsets, star-gazing, and more at this romantic, secluded getaway.

THE HOUSE: A split-level, contemporary-style home with an open-concept floor plan, hardwood floors, and artful decor that emphasizes a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. There are four separate sleeping areas that will afford all of your party privacy, but there is also plenty of shared space.
The First Floor: Inviting, open living room, dining table, and kitchen with an island countertop, and all of the modern amenities. The main room boasts floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Bay. The dining room table seats 8 people comfortably. French doors in the living room provide beautiful views and access to the open deck. Behind the kitchen is the first bedroom with a queen bed and shower bath. The master bedroom suite is on the opposite end of the house, with a king bed and en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub with a view of the water; a walk-in closet, and a private balcony. 

The Lower Level - A large family room with a TV and a second TV for gaming and 3 more bedrooms, 2 baths, and a mini-kitchen. Sliding doors lead to the covered terrace and beyond to the fire pit and water-side yard. A bedroom with a king bed and a separate bathroom with a small kitchen offer privacy. There are two more bedrooms (one with a queen bed, one with two twin beds) and a shower bath in their own hallway to complete this level.

BEDROOMS: (1) King, (1) King, (1) Queen,  (1) Queen, (2) Twins
BATHROOMS: (1) Full w/ Soaking Tub and Large Walk-In Shower, (1) Full with shower only, (1) Full with shower only, (1) Full with shower only

DOGS PERMITTED? Adult dogs are negotiable, just give us a call!
LINENS & TOWELS INCLUDED? Yes, linens and towels are included in your reservation


In addition to the decks and terrace, guests can enjoy the use of the dock and float for swimming (no diving), kayaking, tubing and just sunbathing. Marvel at the stars in Maine's big night sky with no light pollution, bring your telescopes and set them up on the multiple decks, or enjoy star gazing while roasting marshmallows over a fire in the fire pit. From both decks, the living room, and the backyard, you can watch a plethora of aquatic birds as they fish from the bountiful Montsweag Bay. Seals and the occasional otter visit the area as well. A baby Right Whale was spotted this past summer (2023).

The dock is a half-tide dock (which means there is no water under it at low tide).  You can bring a small boat and launch it at Wright Landing, less than a mile from the house.  The MacNamara Foundation (summer artists’ colony) is close by as is the Clough Point Preserve for hiking, views, and exploration. A short drive to the East brings you to Wiscasset, a hot spot for dining, Antique shops, and Art Galleries. Head West to find yourself in historic Bath or head over to Popham State Beach or Reid State Park; both have long stretches of white sandy beaches! Boothbay Peninsula is also close by with shopping, walking trails, whale watching and more.


Westport Island is 14.2 square miles and has a population of just under 750 people. It is the same size as Manhattan, NY.
Accessible by bridge, or via boat from just about anywhere, it is just off Route One which affords easy access to mid-coast Maine while still giving a sense of remote, peaceful tranquility. Still referred to by the locals as Jeremy Squam, the island has a rich nautical history and a deep love of the sea’s bounty. The island is home to the famed Squire Tarbox Inn & Restaurant. Within an easy drive, or scenic boat ride, are Wiscasset, Damariscotta, Boothbay, and more! You can also make easy trips to the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath, Popham Beach, and Reid State Park.
Oh, What A View on Westport Island, Maine. Vacation rental located in a quiet cove on the Sheepscott River. Sleeps 10 in five bedrooms. Spectacular sunsets, a great house for a romantic getaway, and a fantastic family vacation spot where you can recharge, kayak, and eat lots of lobster.  Privately owned, and managed by Cottage Connection. Easy day trips and close to quaint villages of Wiscasset and Damariscotta with wonderful farm-to-table cuisine, whale watching, cruises, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Maine State Aquarium, Boothbay Harbor Country Club’s championship golf course, mini golf, restaurants, and more.
