About this property

Weiss Upper - Incredibly Private, Amazingly Scenic

Welcome to the Weiss Family Compound. This incredibly private, amazingly scenic setting contains a shared gravel beach, hiking trails and a “mountain” trail which provides glorious views of Swains Cove and beyond to the Penobscot Bay and Camden Hills. The Weiss Family Compound consists of two cottages, which can be rented individually or together.

Weiss Upper is a three bedroom, one bathroom cabin. The cottage is simple with jaw dropping, elevated views of Swains Cove and the Penobscot Bay. The kitchen has an electric range, a refrigerator and all the basic supplies to prepare most any meal. The cottage has a simple living room area with a grand stone fireplace, a couch, a couple of chairs accompanied by glorious views of the ocean. From the kitchen and dining area there are sliding doors that open to a beautiful open deck which provides multiple seating opportunities to take in the sights and sounds of the cove. The deck is also equipped with a gas grill.

There are three bedroom at Weiss Upper. The first is in the cottage area. The room has a queen bed, a quiet work space, a private fireplace and views of the cove, islands and sea. The second bedroom is accessed from the front deck system. It has two twin beds and a nightstand. The third bedroom also with deck side access has a queen bed and a nightstand. The one bathroom is also deck-side and has a shower stall as well as sink and toilet.

Weiss Upper is one of the most scenic settings around. From sun up to the beautiful sundown (when in residence you should not try and miss a sunset from this glorious hilltop) this is definitely the right place to come and unwind for a week or two.

Great Spot

We thoroughly enjoyed another week at Weiss Upper. Beautiful location, very comfortable accommodations, simple but well stocked kitchen. We love to kayak so appreciated the ability to store our boats at the shoreline and launch with ease. We hope to return next year.

authentically gorgeous Maine coast

We had a marvelous time in this rustic but beautifully equipped and maintained summer home with the absolutely best water views I have ever seen. There's also great water access for kayaking and swimming. All around fantastic.

Another Perfect Week

The location is what always draws us back. The privacy is awesome. We have stayed here many times. Appreciated the new deck and sliding door. Great to have the stove for chilly nights in the fall. The split unit for cooling off the sun during the day or taking the chill off in the morning is perfect. The sunsets and stars are the best on the island. You have to experience it to understand. It is amazing. Enjoyed the private beach and cooking on the grill. Kitchen is well stocked. Guests must be prepared for the rustic furniture and bathroom. We find it all part of it's charm. Hope to return again next year.

Stunning

Perfectly situated, quiet, clean, and comfortable in a beautiful location. What more could you ask for. We have been coming here for at least 5 years in a row now and have no plans to stop next year.

Idyllic spot

We enjoyed another spectacular week at Weiss Upper. Wonderful views and sunsets, an abundance of wildlife, easy sea kayaking from the shore, and a simple but well-stocked cottage.
