About this property

The Clamdigger Cottage, a peaceful Downeast waterfront retreat

A Quiet Waterfront Escape on the Downeast Maine Coast

Welcome to The Clamdigger Cottage, a peaceful waterfront retreat where the rhythms of the tides shape the day.

Perched above the quiet tidal flats of Downeast Maine, the cottage offers expansive water views, warm coastal charm, and the kind of deep quiet that is increasingly hard to find. In the early morning, you may see local clam diggers crossing the flats as seabirds glide over the bay. In the evening, sunsets stretch across the water before giving way to some of the clearest night skies in New England.

Whether you're enjoying coffee on the screened porch, reading in the airy loft, or sitting beside the firepit overlooking the water, The Clamdigger Cottage invites you to slow down and settle into the natural rhythms of the coast.
