About this property

Eastward on the Ocean- oceanfront condo on scenic Penobscot Bay

Our HOA requires a 30 night minimum stay. Our home is in a development called "EASTWARD ON THE OCEAN", which is the most beautiful neighborhood on the Maine Coast. If you are looking for a perfect getaway, this is it! Our location in Rockport, Maine is where the mountains meet the sea. The views are incredible! You get the best of both worlds for beauty and recreation. This fully restored 1880 Victorian mansion is truly exquisite. There are 4 condos in the mansion. Our unit is a completely updated, well-appointed 2 bedroom, 2 bath oceanfront condo overlooking scenic Penobscot Bay sleeps 4 guests. This well-maintained condo sits on 63 acres with 2500 feet along the ocean. The property has expansive lawns, a walking path along the ocean, bike paths, tennis court, and swimming pool. Next door is the Samoset Golf Resort where you can enjoy ocean scenery while golfing. Acadia National Park and Monhegan Island are easy day trips. Visit scenic Rockport Harbor, where you can see the Andre the Seal statue, walk through the park, and enjoy the ocean views. We are a short drive to Camden Harbor. Enjoy walking around the harbor area, visiting the shops, dining at great restaurants, and perhaps taking a Windjammer cruise. Enjoy skiing at Camden Snow Bowl which is only 8 miles away. Drive up Mt. Battie and soak in the breathtaking ocean views. Imagine turning off US 1 and driving down the long driveway and suddenly in the distance you see a grand manor house situated on green, expansive lawns right next to the ocean. There is easy access to our unit with parking right outside the front door. Walking in the door, you can't help but be taken aback by the ocean view outside the living room and kitchen windows. You can actually see lobster boats and sailboats pass by from our deck. Downstairs is the living area, dining area, and kitchen. The new kitchen, with stainless steel appliances, is equipped with everything you need for a lobster pot that you can use to cook the lobster you just purchased off the boat! The upstairs has a master bedroom with a brand new all marble ensuite master bathroom. The guest room has its own bathroom, which is brand new, all marble, and gorgeous! From the two bedrooms, you have a breathtaking view of Penobscot Bay. What a great way to wake up every morning! Both bathrooms overlook a beautiful little pond on the west side of the building. We furnish towels, linens, and blankets. There is a washer/dryer upstairs. Wifi is included. There are 2 adult size bicycles and 2 helmets and tennis rackets available for you to enjoy. We have large cooler and small cooler for you to use for picnics. You have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The condo is extremely well-maintained with many upgrades.
This oceanfront manor house condo is truly an elegant, architectural treasure that you won't find any place else. Come enjoy, relax, and recharge at the the place where the mountains meet the sea. EASTWARD ON THE OCEAN IS THE PERFECT LOCATION, AND OUR HOME IS OUTSTANDING.
The HOA requires a minimum stay of 30 days. No smoking and no pets please.

Great Fall Get Away!!! Can hardly wait to go back!

Perfect Maine vacay!! First time visitors - the condo was terrific! Even better than described!!!! Very clean and well appointed! We ate breakfast and dinner in the condo as it was so cozy and easy to relax in. Great location and beautiful ocean views!!! Great for experiencing Rockport, Freeport, Acadia Park, and lots of lobster! We recommend early October as the leaves were just starting to turn and the communities hadn't closed for the season!!!!

Like having your own private estate by the water!

The 80 acre grounds are quiet and peaceful and give lots of places to take your morning walk. The rental unit gave a great sense of cottage and the remodelled kitchen was a joy to work in. 43 Eastward by the Ocean is convenient to shopping, restaurants and all sorts of places to visit and things to do. Rockport is ideally situated to be a home base for exploring coastal Maine and interior Maine. The owners were very intentional about ensuring that our stay was pleasant and problem free. I could not have asked for better.

Great Fall Get-Away

Everything was wonderful! The listing and photos are extremely accurate. The condo is very nicely furnished, comfortable and well outfitted. The grounds of the ocean front property are magnificent and the views from the condo are beautiful. Would definitely come back to this property again and would recommend it to our friends. This area of Maine has so much to offer and is definitely a photographer's dream - spectacular sunrises and sunsets, lighthouses, sail boats, fishing boats, and so much more. If you are into hiking, sailing, biking, playing golf along with visiting great restaurants, museums and shops, you will want to stay here. Great location for year round activities.

"BEAUTIFUL EASTWARD ON THE OCEAN"

We had the good fortune of renting this amazing property for the month of September and loved everything about the condo and the area. Thomas and Roberta were wonderful to work with and they have done an outstanding job making their condo comfortable by combining modern updates while still keeping the New England charm. We enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen, appreciated the gorgeous updated bathrooms and were pleased at how clean the condo was. Sitting on the deck overlooking the Penobscot Bay was very serene and the surrounding housing area was a wonderful, peaceful place to take walks. We really enjoyed strolling the path that runs along the back of the property...the views are breathtaking. The condo has location, location, location being between Rockland and Camden. Without a doubt staying at Eastward was one of the best vacations we have ever had. We were actually sad to pack up our car and leave. Thank you Thomas and Roberta for sharing your piece of paradise.

WE ARE ALREADY BOOKED OUR 3RD STAY!!

This summer we enjoyed our second stay at 43 Eastward in Rockport. This time it was for a glorious 2 months. It was everything we remembered and more! This is a place to get away from all the stresses in life! Conveniently located in Rockport, all the comforts of home are there. Additional improvements were apparent including a beautiful new guest bathroom, fresh paint colors and lovely artwork. This condo has absolutely everything one could possibly need. The weather was beautiful for us alternating combination of sunny, foggy, hot and cool. Once again we took advantage of all the area has to offer: the fabulous Farnsworth Museum, schooner sails in the bay morning and sunset, picnics atop Mt. Battie, hunting for lighthouses up and down the coast, lobster in all forms, 4th of July fireworks viewed from offshore, wild blueberry picking, fresh flowers and veggies from Beth's farm market, peaceful neighborhood walks, cooling off in the pool, capturing postcard perfect photos from the deck and exploring spots off the beaten track. We took a few days to head north where we visited Lubec, Maine, the easternmost point in USA, followed by a fascinating day touring Campobello Island across the border in New Brunswick, Canada and the site of the Roosevelt family summer property. Even after two visits to midcoast Maine we still have a to-do list a mile long! The Thompsons are excellent hosts, very attentive, so easy to deal with. They have thought of everything one might require. You will not regret a stay at this premier property. The summer is awesome but bet the spring and autumn are even better. We will be back!

Wish we lived there!

We could hardly believe our good fortune in finding the Thompson's vacation property. This beautiful, immaculate place with postcard views is exactly as represented in the photographs and the perfect location to enjoy peace and quiet or as a base to explore all that is good about Maine! We loved spending the whole month of August there and the Thompson's could not have been nicer or more helpful and easy to deal with. Here's just a sampling of things we did: the world famous Rockland Lobster Festival, lunch and sunset schooner cruises out of Camden and Rockport harbors, road trip to Acadia National Park, picnics on top of Mt. Battie, walking the breakwater, watching the sailboats go by on the deck, awesome farmers markets, sampling every blueberry pie in the area, more lobster, organ concerts, shopping, Children's Chapel in the woods, more lobster, late night milkshakes at Dairy Dream, watching the fog roll in, going to see the "Oreo" cows, finding iconic Maine lighthouses, museums, exploring small villages inland, walking along the shoreline, and so much more. There are so many things we didn't even get to do. We might have watched TV for 2 hours total in a month! The condo is very comfortable and updated. Literally everything you might need is provided. There is a lovely swimming pool and tennis courts as well. Grocery and other necessary shopping is 5 minutes away. Eastward on the Ocean is a gorgeous, historic neighborhood. We made lots of friends and liked it so much we are returning for a longer period next year. Thanks for the memories and here's hoping the weather will be as perfect again for us!

Better Than Staying At A Hotel!!!

We visited Rockport in October, 2016 with another couple. We are from South Florida, so we wanted to see the changing of the leaves, enjoy some beautiful fall Maine weather, do some fun stuff and stay at a beautiful place. WOW….did we ever!!! The condo suited our needs perfectly. Downstairs was a cozy living room, with a newly remodeled kitchen off to its right. The kitchen was stocked with every gadget and appliance, just like your own home. There was a spacious dining area next to the kitchen. Upstairs were two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The beds were extremely comfortable and the bedding was designer quality. The bathrooms were stocked with plush towels. This was way better than staying at an overpriced hotel. It was like home!!! I am a stickler for cleanliness, and this condo was immaculate! Beautifully decorated, cozy, warm, inviting, and every single room has a gorgeous view of Penobscot Bay. There is so much to do in the area, sightseeing, hiking, visiting lighthouses, etc. We even found a place to purchase lobsters dirt cheap, literally right out of the water. It was so much fun, and we will definitely be back. Thank you to the property owners, Thomas and Roberta, for providing such a nice home away from home. They were the nicest people you would ever want to talk to, and were so accommodating! We are so happy we found this gem! Please stay here….you won’t be disappointed. We recommended this condo to some friends, and they are planning a visit in the spring. Thanks again!!!

Peaceful & Lovely

Sun-filled home with ocean views from every room--perfect for one or two couples. Very clean and spacious with no clutter. Owners are very friendly and responsive. Only downside for us was that the nice TV only got a few basic channels and we were not able to watch Red Sox (streaming not possible due to network area regulations--basic plus would solve the issue and we've gotten that at other area homes).

Maine Sea Coast at it's Finest!

Homes adorned with harvest decor, crisp air and a leaves changing from green to a kaleidoscope of colors …Maine is the perfect fall retreat! This Eastward on the Ocean condo is in the historic manor home with the charm of yesteryear and the amenities of today. Everything was sparkling clean! The kitchen and appliances are brand new and was stocked with everything we could imagine. Bedrooms are warm and inviting with cozy comforters to snuggle under on crisp fall nights. We loved the quiet mornings, sitting in the living room and looking out at the ocean and watching birds and foxes playing in the yard outside. The private community has expansive lawns with paths to wander the 63 acres; just out the front door was a lovely pond wrapped by trees in full fall color and just behind the back porch was a spacious lawn rolling down to the ocean bluffs and walking path which has amazing views. The condo’s location was perfect with easy access to Rockport as well as Rockland & Camden, which have quaint downtowns with museums, restaurants, shopping, with easy access to parks, boating, hiking, bicycling, swimming, tennis, etc. We look forward to staying at this property again…just need to decide if it’s for a summer retreat or the perfect Norman Rockwell New England Christmas. The owners were very accommodating, easy to work with and worked diligently to make sure our every need was met or exceeded. Put this property high on your vacation list!

The condominium is beautiful and a welcoming place

Your condominium is beautiful and a welcoming place. It is nicely furnished, clean and comfortable for your complete “Home Away”. The condo is on Penobscot Bay with a beautiful unobstructed view of the ocean. Sunrises are simply phenomenal and the moon rises and shines on the waters. Breathtaking! You get million dollar views at reasonable prices. No matter your interest, there is plenty for you nearby. The rocky coast is home to numerous lighthouses, and small towns. Next door is the Samoset Resort Golf Club. Located ½ way between Kennebunkport and Bar Harbor, it is convenient for many day trips. We went to: Acadia National Park where we saw Cadillac Mountain, walking trails, Thunder Hole, and ecology. Monhegan Island with its artists, art museum, lighthouse, and local island living. Sailed on the Schooner Heron out of Rockport Harbor. Toured the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland. Bring your camera and walking shoes and have a wonderful experience. Life is good. Charles S., Atlanta

Great accommodations and great hosts!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Thompson's condo in Eastward on the Ocean. The condo was spotlessly clean, and the property was outstanding. The house was filled with everything necessary for a comfortable stay, including ultra-soft sheets and towels. Everything was there for cooking. (We were told a new kitchen is being installed, even though the other kitchen was just fine.) Waking up to the sunrise over the ocean each morning was breathtaking. There was so much to do in the area, and we were busy every day. We enjoyed touring some of Maine's 60+ lighthouses, going sailing on schooners, kwalking the ocean path on the Eastward property, visiting Monhegan Island and Acadia National Park. The attractions are in close driving proximity. Maine is a photographer's dream! We would definitely return to the Thompson's condo in the future as well as highly recommend to others. They provided excellent customer service and made sure we had everything necessary for a great vacation.

Central Maine Retreat

This was the first trip for myself and husband to Maine and we couldn't have selected a better location! We were kept busy with the Maine Food Fest, the Fourth of July festivities and the Atlantic Blues festival in the Rockport area. But this wonderful central Maine location allowed us to travel both North and South from Portland to Acadia comfortably. Each day we were able to return to a quiet respite on the ocean to recharge for another day of exploring. The listing provided an accurate description with well represented photos. The owner was available if needed and followed up with us to provide insight into attractions and restaurants in the area. We shared our time with different friends during our stay, and we all appreciated our accommodations. I would recommend this vacation spot to anyone interested in the Maine coast.

Quintessential Maine experience

The condo was clean and bright with a great view of the large expanse of open grass area that leads to the ocean. With all the amenities and well-stocked with kitchen gear, cooking all your meals is stress-free. The grounds are beautiful as well as the walk along the ocean. Rockland is close to many small beautiful towns with wonderful shops and delicious food...and don't forget the lobster! You can hike, rock climb, go sailing, explore lighthouses plus much more. The owner was incredibly accommodating and helpful. We would highly recommend this condo especially if you wanted a quintessential Maine experience.

Tom and Roberta met in 1979 when they were camp counselors at one of New England's oldest summer camps. Their children continued the family tradition by attending the same New England summer camp .

Close proximity to all things beautiful,interesting, and recreational in Maine, but private enough to enjoy the tranquility of the ocean and the surrounding wooded landscape.
