Photos and Description of the Port Clyde vacation cottage rental 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 8

Location and privacy are a unique combination in this Historic Cape Cottage set in the heart of Port Clyde Harbor. Many ocean views can be enjoyed from this peaceful three-bedroom + loft, two-bath village paradise. Watch the sun set on the back deck with views of islands and fisherman unloading their catch. Relax in the private backyard under the shade of the apple trees in our hand-crafted Adirondack chairs. Or walk down to the shore where you can fish (poles provided) or launch kayaks (weekly rentals available from Port Clyde Kayaks) and enjoy the scenery of a working Maine village. Port Clyde Cottage, built in 1820, is full of New England charm. Freshly restored and decorated, the interior is abundant with soothing colors and natural light allowing visitors to enjoy the outdoors even from the inside. Luxurious bedding and modern appliances combined with the quaint features of a historic residence make Port Clyde Cottage the perfect summer retreat.

Perfect Vacation

Tim & Gina Washington DC
Review Submitted: July 16, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We truly enjoyed our time at the cottage and Port Clyde. Having rented numerous vacation homes in the past, we can honestly say that the Port Clyde Cottage is the best. The cottage is clean, well-maintained and fully stocked with all the amenities you will need - whether be a day at the beach, cookouts on the deck, movies/books for quiet nights, ping pong tournaments or just relaxing on the custom-made adirondack chairs overlooking the water. We loved waking up each morning with a fresh brewed cup of coffee watching the fisherman boats from the back deck and the other "tourists" envy at the cottage from the front kitchen window.

The cottage is nicely located within walking distance of everything in Port Clyde, including the best ice cream in Maine and freshly shucked oysters at the Dip Net. We enjoyed our evening walks around town and to the lighthouse. Day trips to the various towns in the surrounding areas and hiking at the nearby Monhegan Island is also a must (though we debated the merits of leaving our adopted town of Port Clyde). Don't miss the the blackend halibut at the Harpoon (and the back room late night pub) - also within walking distance.

Best of all - the cottage hosts were very friendly, accommodating and made our stay most enjoyable. We were made to feel like part of the town and welcomed with all of the "locals" just by being the renters at the cottage.

We would highly recommend the cottage and Port Clyde.

Pure delight

Review Submitted: September 11, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Wonderful. We spent "hours" on the back deck enjoying the view of the small cove and islands and under the apple trees in adirondack chairs reading and "nodding off".
If you want more "action" there is a delightful dockside restaurant, the ferry to Monhegan and kayak rentals just down the street. The best of both worlds. Cottage was charming and spotless. A wonderful getaway!

Just perfect

gremmie Seattle, WA
Review Submitted: September 5, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
This cottage (though it seems kinda big for that word!) might not be for everyone because it's RIGHT on the main drag. Folks walk by your kitchen window and the cars and trucks drive by within 20 ft but it was PERFECT for us! The ice cream shop is next door and the general store just across the street. We liked the hubbub of the little town (we stayed on the outskirts of town last time) and everything inside the house was perfect too. This house is a beautiful combination of old and new and left us lacking nothing. The quilts are lovely!
Owner's Response: Port Clyde Cottage offers a rare and wonderful balance of privacy and activity along the Maine seashore. Located in the heart of Port Clyde Village, the Cottage is across the street from the Ocean House B&B. Just down the street is Village Ice Cream and around the corner from there is the General Store. The front side of the house faces the village -- there is a small grassy yard and the sidewalk for passersby is across the street. When you're ready to retreat, yet still enjoy the outdoors, the large backyard welcomes you to relax in handcrafted adirondack chairs under the long limbs of shade providing apple trees. As the day ends enjoy a lobster feast on the back deck while the sun sets over the islands and the boats moor for the evening. Escape from the grind and experience a beautifully simple way of life along Maine's coast. We bet you'll be back for more.
