Osprey Nest on Tip Toe Mountain

Get away to the Osprey Nest! This charming cabin in the woods sits high above it all with spectacular views of Penobscot Bay. This cabin is separated into two spaces; the main house and a private master bedroom joined by a large deck that runs the length of the house & provides the perfect opportunity for outdoor dining w/a view. The house faces South West and enjoys shaded mornings, sun all day & a direct view of the sunset across Penobscot Bay.

Osprey Nest
The most amazing property we have ever rented. Stripped down, simple and elegant with an unmatched view. Several window cranks need attention, but otherwise the house is perfect.

Unwind on Tiptoe Mountain Road
The Osprey Nest is sublime. An austere, well appointed home perfectly sited. Property manager Claire Jackson was a delight and could not have been more helpful. We can't wait to return

Private, camp like
Great location away from town, feels like a remote cabin/camp in the woods. It is not a fancy, high end home, so if that is what you’re looking for it’s not for you. It was exactly what we were looking for, we absolutely enjoyed it. Access to the ocean, great sunsets, easy walk to tip toe mountain, etc.
