Maine Waterfront- Rustic-Modern Scandinavian Style Cottage. Private & Secluded.

Welcome to Birch Point Cottage!

This peaceful and relaxing Scandinavian-style Maine cottage sits on five very private and secluded acres on the shore of a beautiful tidal ocean cove in Owls Head, Maine.

Recently restored, this light and airy timber-frame home is a perfect blend of European style and Maine craftsmanship. The entire house can be rented for a comfortable, relaxing stay on the coast of Maine, and features 3 large bedrooms, 2 full baths, an open spacious floor plan, and great water views and access to a tidal ocean cove.

DESCRIPTION:
The main floor is a beautiful, comfortable, sunny, open living area consisting of a modern and fully equipped kitchen/dining room/living room with white oak floors throughout. There is also a large den/media room/library/office.

Large windows offer water views of the cove, and double patio doors open onto a spacious deck, bringing the outdoors in.

Upstairs are 3 large airy bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, skylights, whitewashed rustic pine floors, and comfortable beds. There are 2 full modern bathrooms- 1 up and one down, as well as an outdoor shower.

3 Bedrooms (sleeps 6 total) include:
- Bedroom #1: 1 Queen bed (Master).
- Bedroom #2: 1 Queen bed.
- Bedroom #3: 2 XL twin beds.
(Comfortable mattresses, 100% cotton sheets, summer duvets, assortment of pillows)

The outdoor area surrounding the home is nicely but simply landscaped, has an outdoor fire pit by the water, and ample lawn area to spread out, entertain, and play. Access to the tidal cove/water is 75 feet from the backdoor, offering swimming, kayaking, or paddle boarding steps from the house (water activities at high tide only, check tide charts).

This home is extremely private but also close to many area attractions and conveniences. Get away from it all and relax in a tranquil setting surrounded by nature, wildlife, and the beauty of the Maine coast. This is truly a unique and beautiful property and setting with a casual, comfortable, laid-back Scandinavian-inspired coastal living style!

AMENITIES:
There is a well-equipped kitchen with commercial gas range and dishwasher, washer/dryer, an outdoor shower, and a spacious deck with gas grill, summer furniture, etc.

The cottage has good internet/wi-fi as well as decent cell coverage. There is no cable TV, but the house does have a smart TV capable of streaming Netflix, Amazon, etc., as well as a DVD player with an assortment of movies. There is also a radio (with bluetooth) in case you want to know what's going on in the world. Nice cotton linens and towels (beach & bath) are provided, as well as beach chairs & beach umbrella.

PETS:
Guests with well behaved adult dogs are encouraged to bring them (upon approval). We know they like to go on vacation too, and miss us when we're gone! The home and property are well off the main road, and there is room for them to run, play, and swim (dog-towels provided too!). Dogs must be fully house trained, on flea/tick medication, and owners are required to fully abide by our pet policy. Poop scoop provided. Limit: 2 dogs (sorry, no puppies or dogs under 1 year, or cats).

AVAILABILITY: Birch Point Cottage is rented by the week—Saturday-to-Saturday (unless specified).
SUMMER/FALL SEASON 2025 (June 21th- October 5th).
Weekly Rate: $3675 ($525 per night).
Renters will also be charged a $150 cleaning fee, and 9% State of Maine Lodging Tax.
Fee for Pets: $10/day /$70 week (each).

OVERVIEW:
Birch Point Cottage is located on a secluded point of land set well off the road in a quiet rural-residential area. There are nice walks nearby, including a pretty harbor at the end of the road, and a lovely less-traveled sandy beach a short 10 min walk from the house.

Owls Head is a small coastal town with an active commercial fishing community (lobstering primarily). Fresh lobster can be bought nearby. There is also a wonderful fish market in nearby Rockland. Other attractions and amenities include; Owls Head Light (a State Park w/lighthouse), multiple accessible beaches (which are all great for small children), post office, and a general store.

10 minutes away is the artistic seaport town of Rockland, with great restaurants and cafes, museums and galleries, entertainment, shopping, and more. A short drive up the coast brings you to the picturesque coastal towns of Camden and Rockport- a destination for hiking, sailing, skiing, and other outdoor adventures.

Other great areas to explore in the mid-coast include; the Saint George Peninsula and Port Clyde; Camden Hill State Park; Belfast; the islands of North Haven, Vinyl Haven, Islesboro, and Monhegan (great day trips!) and more. Summer brings the annual Lobster Festival, The Blues Festival, Boat Show, Farmers Markets, blueberry picking, yard sales, and lobster bakes! The owner will leave (and send) all guests a detailed and updated list of area attractions and activities, and can offer suggestions based on your interests.

The Midcoast area also boasts a thriving food scene, and there are many wonderful restaurants, lobster shacks, farmers markets, fresh seafood & local produce, wineries and breweries.

GETTING AROUND:
There is no public transportation in the immediate area. Guests will need a car to explore.
The house is a short drive to Knox County Regional Airport in Owls Head, a small local airport catering to private planes and service to Boston via Cape Air Airlines. Car rentals are available at the airport. Buses run daily from Boston and points south to Rockland, ME.

Our family had a great time in our week stay at this lovely property. The house is beautifully done and the yard and view of the cove are perfect. And so much to do and see in the nearby mid-coast communities, and the state park beach is a short walk away. Highly recommended.

The perfect getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house is in a great location - it’s close to the town of Rockland, but it has so much privacy and is tucked away in the woods - you are able to put your kayaks in the water, they are situated next to the cove. - the sunsets are beautiful from the back deck - it’s walking distance to a beach The house was very comfortable for the four of us - the kitchen had everything that we needed - the bedrooms were very private - they have two bathrooms with showers - the TV room was separate from the open area where the kitchen, dining room and sitting room were I would highly recommend this place to anyone & would stay there again. Donna was a great host with very clear information & directions

Perfect Maine Getaway

We loved our stay at Donna's warm, peacefully decorated, scenic home. Early mornings and evenings on the deck overlooking the water were a favorite time for meals spent watching the tide moving in and out, viewing various birds, and enjoying the sunlight on the rustling trees. Donna was fully stocked with paper and kitchen supplies. This home was the perfect base for exploring the Rockland and Camden areas or remaining in Owl's Head.

Beautiful home on beautiful property

The house is exactly as pictured and described. Its well stocked and very clean. The location is very private and super quiet. Three large comfortable bedrooms and 2 full baths gave everyone their space. The yard is well maintained and the view is phenomenal, especially at high tides. Communication with the owner was great, very responsive and easy to reach. We really enjoyed our stay and can't wait to go back.

Never disappointed

We have been renting Donna's cottage regularly for several years now. It is a wonderful, special place. Donna does an amazing job keeping it fresh and welcoming. We had friends from home stop by this year (who happen to have their own lovely cottage on the Pemaquid Peninsula), and they raved about the setting, the decor, and the charm of the cottage. We will be back next year!

The house was immaculate and very well equipped. We packed way more than we needed. The bedrooms were spacious, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was great. The Wi-Fi was more than adequate for our needs. Very close to great shops and restaurants in Rockland, Camden, etc. Walmart only 3 miles away. We had a great stay, and would go back in a heartbeat.

We loved staying in this secluded and spacious cottage. I could have watched the tide and sea birds forever. An easy 10 min drive to Rockland where there is plenty to do, the house were perfect for cooking, reading, relaxing. We had days of rain and fog - so especially appreciated the interior spaces. Donna is a wonderful and helpful host and has decorated the house beautifully. We hope to return!
