A Bit of the Story
Once part of a historic coastal hotel, Cornerstone Cottage is a 100+ year-old retreat where charm and character still linger in every detail.
The original wood floors and ocean air drifting through open windows reflect a slower way of life along the Maine coast. While there is no air conditioning, the cottage sits beneath a canopy of shade, with fans placed throughout to keep the space comfortable and breezy—just as a true Maine cottage should be.
In cooler months, the wood stove brings warmth and a natural gathering place, making the cottage an inviting stay year-round.
