We returned to the Honeymoon cottage after staying last year and again we had a most comfortable, relaxing week surrounded by a beautiful landscape, next to Muscongus Bay. Pat and Bill provide all the comforts necessary for an easy, almost homelike stay. The private location allows Turkeys, porcupines and woodchucks to occasionally appear. Delanos Seafood on Rte 1 only 10 miles away provided the freshest lobsters, oysters and addictive lobster rolls. Beths Farm market is close with produce, baked goods, etc.. Thanks Pat and Bill for another week of great memories! We will count the days to our return - Sean and Lo'an

A charming cottage with spectacular views of the water. The owners have thought of every possible need of their guests! Cozy, comfortable furnishings, very convenient with two bathrooms and a washer and dryer. Peaceful, quiet setting with beautifully maintained grounds and gardens. Great birding and wildlife viewing opportunities. The perfect vacation location.

Will Not Disappoint!

Perfect location, perfect weather, perfect cottage - what a great week! Thanks, Pat, for all the special touches - the fresh flowers, the blueberry jam & the muffins. The cottage was SUPER clean and well appointed. We spent the beautiful days walking and biking and snuggled into the big comfy bed at night. Hated to leave, hope to be back. Thanks for sharing your special place!

Beyond Breathtaking

This Honeymoon Cottage is truly beyond breathtaking with the setting at the waters edge. The property owners were so wonderful, friendly, and thoughtful. My husband and I had the most relaxing time visiting Cushing and staying at the Cottage. It had everything we needed and more and was exceptionally clean and well maintained. I wish I could have rated it a 10 versus a 5 in all categories.

Couldn't Be Happier

We spent a week at this little gem, and from our time of arrival until our departure, we couldn't have found a thing to complain about even if we tried. Such a beautiful, peaceful, private location, right on the water with views that only God could have created. The cottage itself is super clean and charming, we found the bed to be very comfortable, and the view of the sun rising over the ocean is worth the price of admission. When they say you don't have to bring anything but clothes and food, they are not kidding. There was not one thing that we needed that was not already provided. Our hosts, Pat & Bill could not have been more friendly or helpful. Thank you, Pat & Bill, for what may have been the most relaxing vacation we have ever had. Cheers!

Perfect Maine getaway

The Honeymoon Cottage, and Hosts Pat and Bill made for the perfect weeklong getaway in Maine! Lots of room for 2 in this picturesque location on Muscongus Bay. Perfectly appointed with everything; pots and all for steaming your lobsters, fully stocked kitchen, Very comfortable King-sized bed and 2 immaculate bathrooms. An open Deck off the entryway with the best view of the Bay imaginable made for open-air dining at its best. The gracious and friendly owners Pat and Bill have made this Cottage as comfortable as comfortable can get! Close drive to Rockport for a 2 hour sail on the Schooner Heron on Penobscot Bay was relaxing and informative. We cooked every meal at "home", buying Lobsters, Sea Scallops, Damariscotta Oysters from Delanos Seafood 15 mins. away. The Olsen House is less than 10 mins. away, as seen in Andrew Wyeth's painting Christinas World. We loved every minute of our stay!

A perfect vacation in Maine

We had a wonderful stay at the honeymoon cottage with our two dogs. They were able to run free on the property and play in the ocean. The cottage is even more lovely in person than the pictures. Everything we needed was provided (except for our clothes and food). We enjoyed properly (perfectly) cooked lobsters delivered to Bill and Pat's dock by Nick the lobsterman. We enjoyed day trips to beaches, lakes, wineries, breweries, lighthouses, nature preserves and the towns of Rockland, Tenants Harbor, and Camden. I especially enjoyed watching the sunrise every morning from the front deck. It was a wonderful trip and the accommodations were charming, comfortable, airy, and immaculately clean. The king size bed, linens, and pillows were excellent quality and we loved falling asleep to the sound of water right outside our window. It was like sleeping on a boat. One week was not enough time to enjoy Maine, the property, the area, and our wonderful hosts, Bill and Pat. There is so much to do in this area of Maine and the property is so wonderful that I wish we could have stayed longer.

Thank you, Vicki, for your kind words. We are delighted you had a wonderful mid-coast Maine vacation and that you found our accommodations to your liking. Bill and I so enjoyed the brief conversations we had with you and Paul. We certainly hope our paths cross again in the future.

Honeymoon Cottage

We were fortunate to stay two weeks at this amazing cottage by the sea. The landscape is incredibly picturesque. The cottage is spotless, comfortable, and well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The hosts are friendly and endearing. They went out of their way to make certain that we had everything we needed including fresh lobster. My only regret is that we had to leave. Thanks for the marvelous memories Pat and Bill.

Honeymoon Cottage is perfect!

We were fortunate to find this property to explore a new area in Maine. Upon arriving to find little personal touches throughout to welcome us was great. We knew we made the right choice. Meeting Pat and Bill it was obvious the cottage was very special to them and it is now to us as well. Highly recommend.

This is a very cute little house in a wonderful location. The house has everything you could want and the owners are very accommodating and helpful. If you want to get away from it all this is the place for you just five steps from the ocean.

Perfect cottage and perfect hosts.

Upon arrival we entered a beautiful private drive, leading to the most idyllic cottage sited on a gorgeous lawn that sloped down to the water. The expansive water views were breath taking. We could hear lobster boats in the distance and waves lapping against the rocky shoreline. It truly is an enchanting cottage and magical setting. The cottage was perfect in every way: charming; inviting; immaculate; cozy; and beautifully appointed with lovely décor and architectural design. The gracious hosts anticipated every need imaginable and even welcomed our small dog with food bowls set at the perfect height for his small frame. He loved playing fetch on the lawn. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked and the bed was luxurious. We can’t speak highly enough of the wonderful hosts and their enchanting cottage by the sea. Thank you for a beautiful and extraordinary stay.

First time to Maine - and certainly not the last

Our week at Honeymoon Cottage was everything we were looking for...and more. On arrival our immediate impression was that of a cosy, modern, well equipped and immaculately presented 'home away from home' - but with the most amazing setting by the ocean and amongst extensive but private grounds. Pat and Bill met us on arrival and made us very welcome - and arranged to source lobsters for us (and cook them to perfection too). We will miss listening to the lobster boats outside in the morning and looking at the stunning sunrise and amazing night sky. The surrounding area is wonderful - we managed to visit 5 lighthouses (our favourites were Owl's Head and Rockland Breakwater). We enjoyed visiting Camden for good shopping and nice restaurants. We hope to return again next year.

Idyllic location

The cabin was exceptionally neat and clean when we arrived. This is truly a beautiful area away from the hustle and bustle of many of the better known coastal cities of Maine; yet Rockland, Camden, and Rockport are only minutes away. We particularly enjoyed our daily hike in the Pleasant Point Nature Preserve which is located just up the street. Overall experience is worthy of five stars.
