Westport Island Vacation Rental cottage

We came back from our Maine foliage vacation a few weeks ago, where we stayed at Westport Island cottage. The location was excellent: waterfront, at the northern tip of the island with views of water from 3 sides of the house. Private dock with table was great to have a meal outside, even if you don’t have a boat. Lobstermen and fishing boats were passing by on the way to work in the morning, just as it was described. We did see the whole process of catching lobsters a few feet from the cottage, staying in pajamas, in warm house inside, looking through wall of windows, which is what two sided of the house are made of. Surely beats paying for lobster fishing trip on a cold October morning.
At night, it is extremely quiet and dark around the house, but you can see civilization a mile or so away on the other side of the bay. Best of both worlds.
If you want a lobster, working dock is 10 min walk or 2 min drive away. The price difference compared to Wiscasset village was unbelievable (more than 4 times cheaper).
We rent lots of houses while skiing in the winter, so we’ve seen quite a few, and this was one of the best. It is an elegant, but simple cottage with alpine architecture, high ceilings and both north and east side walls made out of sections of glass from top to bottom. The kitchen is clean, simple and new (remodeled). There was everything we needed in terms of plates, silverware, etc.; there was even some eggs and milk in the fridge left by previous tenants. The feeling was like we were on a hiking trail, where experienced hikers leave a fresh pile of fire wood for next camper in the morning before setting off.
We would definitely recommend the house and will have it at the top of our list for next trip to Maine.
