Amazing spot with an attentive host

Wawenock suits our family just perfectly. Excellent kayaking, beach-combing, exploring on the islands and in the water at low tide, fireplace fires at night, lots of reading spots… Craig is a very attentive host whose love for the place shines through!

Accurate pics of cabin

The cabin is exactly as the pictures show. Our week was damp and foggy, so it was damp and cool inside - as there is no insulation inside the cabin.

This cottage is a window to another time.

The rental process is seamless, get the key code and walk into the sweetest place anyone could ask for. The biggest problem is you will not want to leave to do anything else. Move from the porch in the morning to the beach, back to lunch, and repeat. You wake up to the crows and lobster boats, while living in a book lined museum. I loved it.

Awesome location

My wife and I styed here in July of 2022. This house sits on an amazing piece of land, the views from the slabs of granite are breathtaking! After 10:00 all you could hear is the waves except for one evening there was some loud people a few houses down. I especially enjoyed learning about the tide and how different the landscape looks in low tide vs. high tide. The lobster boats were fun to watch and listen to as they made their way to the traps. Now for the house itself, it is old and has many cool antiques. I have to say it is not particularly comfortable, beds are small, windows need to be better with better screens and the furniture is nothing great. The fact their was no TV was a plus for me. In the listing there are no photos of the bathrooms so let me describe them. The main bath is very small. You could literally sit on the toilet and wash your hands at the same time! The shower was so small I dreaded using it. It is a corner style shower that an average weight adult can fit into but that's it, very hard to wash your feet. The second floor bath is much nicer but it only has a toilet and sink. The kitchen is also very small. Yes they have plenty of pans and utensils but there is only room for one person to work. And the burners on the stove are not level. Every time I went to make an omelet the eggs would run to one side of the pan. We did not use the kitchen too much as we wanted to dine out anyway. The charcoal grill was like every VRBO grill I have used, dirty. I was able to clean it up enough to use it. The vents were rusted shut and the grill grate needs replacing. The best part of the house is the back porch. We really enjoyed sitting out there in the morning with coffee watching the lobster boats. And I really enjoyed the peaceful evenings , mosquitos were an issue at times but there were lots of candles and torches to help deter them. Overall I loved our stay based on the porch and the granite slabs down by the water ( I played my guitar down there every night) the house not so much. This property is located in what I call a rural area, kind of a long drive to Blue Hill in my opinion but I knew it would be. Its location is great for exploring the small towns nearby and Deer Isle but not a bad drive to Acadia National Park ( 90 minutes). I highly recommend Acadia but also enjoyed local hikes like the 100 Acre woods.
