This place is GREAT! Kitchen had all tools needed for cooking, location was awesome. We will definitely stay here again!We do recommend ear plugs. The street noise overnight can be annoying.
Property was in a good location with reserved parking. Only 20 mins. to the Botanical gardens.

Excellent Stay
This was the fourth time we have rented the Sunshine on the Sheepscot apartment and it was delightful as usual. The apartment has a charming, historic feel but still has most of the modern amenities. Be aware that there is a fairly steep staircase to get to the apartment so it maybe won’t be the best choice for people with mobility issues but it is highly recommended for a great stay in Wiscasset!
We have traveled Midcoast Maine since childhood and have always admired this historic riverfront Wiscasset building. We were so happy for the opportunity to stay here! The space is thoughtfully arranged as both an homage to its history and a cozy living space with gorgeous Sheepscot views. Perfect landing spot for Wiscasset's beautiful walking tour, eateries and shops. We loved every minute. Thank you!
Beautiful little apartment, the view from the balcony was excellent, and there's a delightful little coffee/ice cream shop practically underneath it, in the little nook between the building and Red's. A lovely relaxing stay 🙂

Eclectic and charming!
Adorable, many historical artifacts decorate this charming, unexpected gem in the middle of Wiscassett with great views.
We very much enjoyed everything about this rental. Even in 85+ degree heat, the breeze off the river kept the deck space & kitchen very cool.
Great location for exploring the coast or just walking around town & chill in out.
The apartment is fantastic--great views, clean, well-appointed, & has lots of historic character.
And the location is just as good--close to great food, great walking, great swimming, great shops and more!
We'll definitely be back.
