A Charming Summer Cottage in Port Clyde, Maine
Welcome to our enchanting summer cottage, nestled along the scenic shores of Port Clyde Harbor. Just a short walk from the iconic Marshall Point Lighthouse, famously featured in Forrest Gump, this timeless retreat captures the essence of a traditional Maine vacation.
Tucked away on a quiet private road surrounded by family homes, the cottage blends rustic charm with modern comfort. The cozy first floor features a queen bedroom, a twin room, and a well-equipped kitchen with a dining area perfect for lobster dinners or leisurely breakfasts.
Upstairs, you'll find another queen bedroom and two twin rooms, ideal for families or groups. Gather around the wood-burning fireplace or unwind on the covered porch, where a dining table offers the perfect setting for al fresco meals with harbor views and sea breezes. While the cottage offers Wi-Fi and a Smart TV, the real luxury is slowing down, disconnecting, and soaking in the peaceful seaside atmosphere.
Guests love the welcoming yard, community dock, and proximity to Drift Inn Beach just over a mile away. Since opening its doors in 2013, this cottage has become a beloved destination for generations of families returning year after year to enjoy its magic.
