Quiet with Views - Pet Friendly - late booking special

This is a unique spot nestled in the oaks and pines of the Camden Hills where the Megunticook Lake spills into the Megunticook River, with the Camden Hills beyond.

This 2 bedroom/1 bath private unit in a tastefully renovated Cape Cod (duplex) faces south with views of the upper river basin and the Camden Hills. Loons call throughout the summer and eagles are occasionally spotted fishing from atop the pines. This is a great rental for a relaxing get-away or as a home base for day trips to Acadia, coastal drives, kayak outings on the river or lake, or day hikes in the Camden Hills State park.

We live (quietly) in the other unit next door, and our house is about 3 miles from downtown Camden's harbor shops and restaurants. Rockport is just a few minutes away, and Rockland’s museums, shops and places to eat are an easy 15 minute drive (we’ll tell you the back roads to avoid Route 1.) Fall rentals feature close proximity to The Camden Hills State Park for hiking and 'leaf peeping'.

The 2 bedrooms feature a flexible set-up that can comfortably accommodate four, but can stretch to six with advance planning and available air mattresses. The extra large master bedroom (25' X 12') features a king bed (or two twins) with adjoining seating area, or it can be converted to large dorm-style room arranged with two twins and a single or double air mattress. A second bedroom features a queen bed with desk and seating. There is also a well-drained lawn if the kids want to sleep in their tent.

Bedrooms each have a multi-speed ceiling fan, and the largest has an in-window air conditioner, although midcoast Maine generally does not need it with famously temperate days and cool nights.

The unit has a large full bathroom with dual sinks, a whirlpool tub and separate walk-in tiled shower. The washer/dryer is there, or if you prefer, a sunlit clothes line in the back yard.

The living area next to the cook’s kitchen features a comfortable couch and chairs, with a large bright bay window with views of the outdoors,. We provide wireless internet and Roku cable as well as Amazon Prime and Pandora. Outside is a small deck, and a stone patio with seating. There is a gas bbq for your use.

This property is just a short walk to Hodson Park, a favorite fishing spot where Megunticook Lake spills into the Megunticook River. It is a short drive to Barrett's Cove swimming beach (Megunticook Lake) off Beaucaire Road, and in the other direction 1/4 mile walk or drive to the Megunticook boat launch.

The property is provided with fresh linens and towels, and the kitchen is stocked with basic provisions like salt, flour, sugar and oil. Please feel free to request a stocked frig option with a selection from fresh local markets. Laundry is onsite, or an in-town drop-off service is available.

We look forward to answering any of your questions, and for you to have a private and pleasant vacation in our home on the beautiful Midcoast of Maine. We look forward to your stay, and please email if we can help you navigate the booking process. Thank you.
