About the host

Hi, we're Ali and Mike Cormier! This home was purchased by our parents as a summer home in 1978, and has remained in the family as a vacation home and VRBO rental since 2015.
We love sharing the beauty of Castine and our home with travelers from near and far, and we're confident that you will fall in love with the town of Castine and surrounding areas just like we did.
We look forward to hosting you!

Why they chose this property
Built in 1973, the original owner/builders from Cape Cod were all about details. The house was positioned facing slightly South, to afford spectacular sunsets all year long across our front windows. The neighborhood is on a private dirt road, and very quiet, although only a 5 minute drive from Main St in downtown Castine. Our home boasts cathedral ceilings, oil baseboard heating and air conditioning on the main levels and in the bedrooms. The large wrap around porch and sunroom are the perfect places to enjoy the sunset, listen to the waves or have your morning coffee.
What makes this property unique
Peace and quiet with exceptional views across Wadsworth Cove and Penobscot Bay, Islesboro Island and Camden Hills in background. Flowering trees and shrubs, wild roses, geese , sea ducks, and deer families grazing on the lawns of a nearby estate. Unique public beach at end of road, safe swimming/boating/ beach-combing.
Our home in Castine is a hidden gem just waiting to be discovered.
