About this property

Recently renovated cottage just steps to the waters edge deck, and dock along the New Meadows River.

Welcome to Rosedale!

Escape to the quiet beauty of coastal Maine at Rosedale, an adorable and lovingly maintained cottage perched on a saltwater peninsula along the New Meadows River in West Bath. With saltwater access on both sides of the property, this serene retreat offers the best of Maine's coastal charm, peaceful mornings, ocean breezes, and endless opportunities for waterfront adventure.

From the moment you arrive, the scent of salty sea air and the soothing sound of lapping water will melt your worries away. Beautifully landscaped gardens frame the property, leading you to a welcoming outdoor oasis complete with a patio, charcoal grill, picnic table, outdoor furniture, and a firepit perfect for evening s'mores under the stars.

Step inside and you'll be greeted by a newly remodeled kitchen, thoughtfully updated while preserving the cottage's classic charm. Just off the kitchen is a brand-new bathroom with a stand-up shower. Continue into the cozy living room, bright, comfortable, and surrounded by windows capturing stunning river views. This is the perfect place to curl up with a book, work on a puzzle, or simply unwind.

Rosedale offers two inviting bedrooms: one with a queen-size bed and one with a full-size bed. Beyond the living room, the riverfront sunporch sits directly over the water and features a daybed for an additional guest. With its panoramic views and soothing atmosphere, this is where many guests spend most of their time.
The cottage is equipped with WiFi, local TV, and internet-capable programming, so you can stay connected, of course, that's if you want to.

Outdoors, Rosedale truly shines. With its private pier and brand-new, expansive deep-water dock with a swim ladder, you'll have unmatched access for swimming, kayaking, fishing, and boating. While some areas of the New Meadows River go shallow at low tide, Rosedale enjoys reliable deep-water access year-round. And for those bringing a boat, New Meadows Marina is less than a mile away for easy launching or rentals.

When you're ready to explore beyond the peninsula, the charming towns of Bath and Brunswick offer restaurants, cafés, galleries, shops, theaters, museums, and a delightful small-town ambiance. Looking for sandy shores? Popham Beach and Reid State Park, two of Maine's most beautiful beach destinations, are just a short drive away.
Peaceful, picturesque, and authentically Maine, Rosedale invites you to slow down, savor the moment, and enjoy the magic of life by the water.

You are invited—come and enjoy!

WONDERFUL!

We had a great time sitting on the sun porch sipping our coffee while watching the wild life move against the backdrop of fall leaves and changing tides. The cottage is quaint, comfortable, and very clean. A wonderful place to come home to after a day of exploring the area.

First trip to Maine

Cute little cabin. Great outdoor living/dining/relaxing spaces as well as a large living room. I spent every morning enjoying my coffee in the sunroom. The weather was just right to leave all the windows open & pull in a great breeze off the water. Mike was a gracious host.

Happy Place

Exactly as advertised, even better. Cabin in perfect shape, owner next door shared some stories about wildlife and such. Peaceful, safe, easy to find yet secluded, private, on the water. Osprey nest above, goldfinches, kingfishers, blue heron, egrets, bluebirds, gulls, cormorants, a seal and so much more. A perfect, perfect getaway.

Relaxation on the water

We had a great time during our stay at Rosedale cottage. Beautiful view of the New Meadows River (inlet) and very relaxing to just watch the wildlife (many Great Blue Heron sightings). The cottage has a renovated kitchen and bathoom and many hours were spent in the front sunroom. This was a good location for us to go to Brunswick for shopping, dining, and Maine State Music theatre, Boothbay for the wonderful Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, and Bath for the Maine Maritime Museum. Would definitely recommend.

Awesome vacation time in Maine!

Overall the property was very clean and the owner's met us the day we arrived and were very nice. The Sun Room was probably our favorite but we enjoyed the outdoor patio area, the dock, etc. We caught fish from the dock, saw an Eagle soaring and feeding, and most of all RELAXED!

Great cottage on scenic Maine inlet

We enjoyed our stay, and even weathered a noreaster! Rosedale cottage is cozy with all the conveniences of home. The location is perfect for exploring Bath, and other midcoast towns in Maine. The owners have a cottage next door, and were very welcoming (thanks Marilee and Mike.) We highly recommend for a couples getaway.

Excellent property and perfect for what we wanted/needed

The two of us stayed here on what was our first vacation to Maine from Michigan. Though we'd never been to the state, the posting seemed to be exactly what we had pictured when we thought of Maine. It was very neat and we are pleased with the decision. The owner Mike is very kind and it was a pleasure chatting with him. We are definitely going to vacation in Maine again, and this cottage would without hesitation be on the list to stay at.

Great location, bring towels

Rosedale Cottage is an adorable property located in West Bath. It's incredibly convenient to many towns, including Portland and Boothbay Harbor. The views are gorgeous and the patio and hammock are perfect for relaxing. That being said, I would say that only four adults would fit comfortably at this location, as five was a tight fight. Also, bring extra towels, as the property management company only provides one set, no matter how long you are staying. Be aware that the final stretch of road to get to the house is a bit rocky and can be muddy at times and the water isn't ideal for swimming. The owners live next door and were very kind and helpful!

RELAXING

Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Neighbors were very nice and came over to introduce themselves and let us know if we needed anything they were there. Only complaints were the TV only had 4-5 stations and mostly selling things, and it would be nice to have a Washer/Dryer and iron and ironing board. I did bring my own iron since I didn't see it listed. I have to say that the place was very relaxing and extremely comfortable. I do recommend the Taste of Main restaurant on #1 north on Main St. in Woolwich, ME The food was the best we had there and we went to a lot of restaurants. Very nice place to spend our 54th wedding anniversary. Would go back.
