About this property

Secluded Rustic Cabin in the Woods with Distant Water View

A peaceful cabin in the woods for your family to get away from the cares of the world. The reviews from all of our guests are outstanding, and you too will enjoy sitting on the deck and relaxing, or walking through the woods or exploring the shore and swimming in Maines famous chilly water!. It is all new with new furniture, beds, kitchen, bath, bedding and much more. The cabin has a bedroom and sleeping loft upstairs. The main floor has a well equipped open kitchen with dining area. The living room is spacious and comfortable with a lovely view of fields and trees, with a distant view of the water in the background. The bathroom is located on the first floor next to the stairs to the bedroom and sleeping loft. A large porch with chairs ensures a peaceful and quiet stay.

A path down the gravel drive takes you across the brook and down to a set of stairs and our own private beach. The view is beautiful and the water is refreshingly invigorating!
The cabin is located a short walk from our cottage listed as #501514, in case you want to bring more friends or family.

A very comfortable and quiet getaway. Even your dog will be happy.

Perfect summer vacation! The cottage was beautiful inside and out. David is a great host, checking in just enough to make sure all is well. The property is just far enough out to feel remote but close enough to enjoy Stonington and all of the mid coast towns in Maine. Direct access to the bay is only a couple minute walk through the woods to a beach and the most beautiful view imaginable.

This is a property that we rent annually. The cabin is impeccable. Every item you could need is there, if you need anything the hosts, David and Carolyn are but a short walk down the road. The view is always perfect. If you are looking for a Maine oasis this is it. It is located near a meadow of ferns and a very short walk to the ocean with a picturesque view that should be on a magazine cover.

Relaxation paradise

One of the quietest places I ever visited. We had a very relaxing one week stay. Loved launching the kayaks right from the beach. Our doodle was very happy here. The private beachfront is amazing.

This is my fourth stay at this absolutely delightful cabin. I can’t imagine anywhere else I would rather visit on my annual trip to Maine than this beautiful, peaceful, and scenic property! The hosts are wonderful, the cabin is immaculate, and I look forward to my trip here every year! 10/10 would recommend for anyone who looks for a place to rest, rejuvenate, and enjoy the beauty that the coasts of Maine has to offer. I can’t wait for next year!!!

This was our second trip to this lovely, very secluded cabin. The kitchen is well equipped to cook most anything and the living area and bedrooms provide lots of comfy spots to relax. The deck also has a table with 2 chairs and 2 adirondack chairs for outdoor comfort. David & Carolyn are wonderful hosts with a wealth of information about the area!

Magical place

Perfect week. Beautiful location with a very well designed, built, and maintained cabin. Hosts were wonderful (including Daisy the golden retriever). Did some day trips to hike at different preserves but some of the best hiking was exploring the land around the cabin--same mix of granite and mossy spruce forests but all to yourself! Will definitely come back.

The Homestead Cabin

The Homestead cabin is a true gem! We felt instantly relaxed and at home, nestled in the peaceful woods with stunning ocean views just a short walk away. The mossy trails were enchanting, and watching the two Daisys play on the beach was a highlight. Thank you, David and Carolyn, for creating such a welcoming and special place. Your hospitality was much appreciated!

The Best Getaway!

This is perfect for nature lovers looking for peace and quiet and a complete opposite to the over run mad house know as Maine tourism. If you love the quiet outdoors and fun freedom for your well behaved dog , this is the spot! The owners Golden Retriever, Daisy , is an absolute joy and kept our pups entertained. Owners are wonderful, hard working, very friendly and welcoming. You just can’t go wrong staying here !

Great in spite of then weather.

For the most part, the weather was terrible, but the kayaker did get in several paddles in a spectacular area for paddling. The cabin is perfect for our needs and was very comfortable. Our hosts were outstanding. We are already booked fr the same tíme next year.

About the host

Hosted by David Friedell

Host profile image
We are two retired music teachers that retired here many years ago so that we could live in the woods by the sea in a peaceful and beautiful place. Carolyn spends her days working in the garden and David pursues his lifelong interest in tinkering and playing the pipe organ. We came here as newlyweds and summered here for our whole married life. It was a great place to raise our two boys who spent their childhood in the woods, on the water or helping their parents build something or other. It is our pleasure to share this wonderful place with guests.
