Private & Secluded. Welcome to Birch Point Cottage!

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.

The wealth of information you provided about restaurants, local attractions, etc was great. McLoons for the win!! Finally, the home was wonderfully stocked, clean and beautifully decorated. We will certainly be back soon. ##### Peggy Ann S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2020 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jordan Y., Brooklyn, NY Oct 8, 2015 #### Beautiful home, excellent owner, amazing location My wife, 1 year old son, dog, and I stayed at Donna's cottage for a week in July that was far, far, far too short. As soon as we arrived we kicked ourselves for not booking two weeks. We will not make that mistake in the future. Donna met us upon arrival, having been as generous as can be with her time given we arrived later than expected due to a meandering drive up the coast. Her place was flawless and her orientation to the immediate area, from maps, directions to favorite attractions, restaurant reviews was incredibly helpful. She had more good ideas for things to do, including off the beaten path type activities and destinations, than we had time to explore. She was spot on with all her recommendations, from food to swimming holes, to hikes. Please avail yourself of her knowledge. Donna was also helpful and responsive throughout our stay. Anytime we texted her with questions she responded immediately. She even offered that her Mom was in town and willing to babysit for us if we wanted a night out. I can't say enough about the work she has done on the cottage. Maybe we just share an aesthetic, but it is one of the most comfortable, tasteful, and thoughtfully laid out and equipped vacation rentals I've ever seen. And there's an excellent kitchen for those who really like to cook. Be sure to swim in the cove at high tide and shower in the yard, sit on the back deck in late morning, and enjoy an evening around the firepit. We can't wait to come back! ##### Jordan Y. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vincent R.

It's charming and comfortable, the settling is lovely, it's well-appointed, and it is conveniently located for everything you want to do in Mid-coast Maine. ##### Vincent R.

Jul 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Warren H.
