About the host

Hosted by Betsy White

Host profile image
We inherited this property from Betsy's parents - we are the 4th generation to be blessed with being the caretakers of this special place! It was purchased by Betsy's great-grandfather in 1905. We appreciate and enjoy being able to share our cottage with others.

Why they chose this property

There is no place quite like mid-coast Maine. The ocean, beaches, islands, people - all combine to make Friendship a special place! Because it is a working fishing village, it retains the real Maine value and peaceful atmosphere while being close enough to the tourist towns of Camden and Boothbay Harbor for entertainment.

What makes this property unique

The deep water dock, private path to the beach, and big wooden swing on the porch with its sweeping view of Muscongus Bay all combine to provide each vacationer with variety and comfort for the perfect Maine stay. Come see for yourself!
