Get a true taste of coastal Maine at this gorgeous waterfront retreat. Located on a scenic tidal inlet in the quaint commercial fishing town of Jonesport, this home boasts two water-view decks and a private wharf where you can see the bustle of lobster boats during high tide. After watching your fresh catch come in, head into town for incredible sea-to-table fare and spend some time soaking in the local charm around the marina. Hiking, beaches, and year-round recreation are all within easy reach of home.

The three-story interior comes well-appointed for contemporary convenience and comfort.

Designed for household living, the main floor features a stainless steel full kitchen, full bathroom, separate living and dining areas, and a furnished deck. Watch sunrise while sipping coffee on the deck or enjoy a waterfront breakfast at the four-seater table in the kitchen. Family meals can be enjoyed together at the dining room table set for six. The cozy adjacent sitting area showcases artifacts charting the community's regional heritage and photos documenting the home's historical restoration. After the day's adventures, unwind in the living room with shows and movies on the smart TV.

Upstairs, you'll find a bedroom with an en suite bathroom and an open loft area equipped with a game table and futon providing an additional sleeping option. The upper deck is accessible from the loft and second, full bathroom provides added guest convenience.

The lower level features a private bedroom and an open storage area housing the private washer/dryer and a gas grill for summertime cookouts.

Jonesport September Stay 2023
Place was clean upstairs and had a nice view out the back windows, however, the place was mis-represented: the TV nor DVD player are connected for reception, although the internet did work well so bring your own ROKU stick; the management service is over priced and was no help. The basement bedroom is musty, damp and smelly, not really usable. The bath water was brown.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Just Bad.
This listing and the accompanying photos do not accurately represent the property at all. It is listed as a "retreat" but the house has very little privacy from the neighbors and is only 8' away from Main St. We booked the house for a week-long stay with our four kids but after 20 minutes in the house we knew we needed to find somewhere else to stay. There is a large barn about 2' away from the right side of the house blocking most of the windows on that side. The porches are both in poor condition and the guard railings on the exterior stairs and porches are falling apart/rotten in some areas. I would not have allowed my kids to use the stairs or lean on the railings. Inside the house is not much better. The kitchens is serviceable but the two 2nd floor bathrooms have sloped ceilings in the showers so that an adult cannot stand up. The "lower level" "private" bedroom is a basement which smells strongly of mildew. The basement bedroom windows are at grade and have no screens, so opening them to air the room out invites in any type of bug or pest to come into the room. Again, I would not have allowed my kids to sleep down there. There was a torn and tattered couch in the living room with a blanket hiding the exposed foam. All the furniture has a real Salvation Army vibe. The listing says it has a "smart TV" but it's just an old HD TV with no connectivity or even a cable box. We ended up having to book a hotel room and completely change our plans. We want a refund.
