Great Place! Good cookware, good beds. Clean. Owner very cooperative.
Walked to general store, bakery, fish market, restaurants, library. Fireplace worked well on cool nights. Our yellow lab loved the deck. Quiet area.

Owner's Response: Barbara, Thank you for taking the time to write a review of The Weathered Grey Cottage. I'm delighted that you enjoyed the cottage and its proximity (a 10 minute walk) to the village of Tenants Harbor, one of my favorite places. A morning or evening walk to the village along Barters Point Road is a great way to meet people and take in the harbor side views. Our chocolate lab ( Miss Maggie) spent many late afternoons snoozing on the deck after returning from day of sailing. I'm happy to hear that your yellow lab was similarly content.

Walk to town! Launch your kayak!

What could be better than being close enough to an ocean side town than to be able to walk there everyday? Or cross the street to a sweet little cove for a swim or to launch a kayak?
The Weathered Grey Cottage is everything as its description says: convenient, private, well stocked, clean. We were delighted to spend two weeks there this past summer and look forward to returning in the summer of 2013,

Owner's Response: Thank you for your lovely review, Merle. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the Weathered Grey Cottage and that you are planning to return next summer. We appreciate the comments and requests from our guests as a way to help us enhance the comfort and utility of the cottage. Through our correspondence, you suggested that we add a garlic press to our stock of kitchen utensils. There will be one waiting for you next summer.
It is always a joy to walk to the village since the harbor views are ever- changing with the lobster boats and yachts coming and going. Kayakers can also enjoy these views from another perspective as they explore the harbor and islands from the water. A camera is a must!
The location of the cottage is convenient; Drift Inn Beach, Port Clyde and the ferry to Monhegan Island are just a few miles "down the road" while the city of Rockland is a few more miles the other way.
Our guests can choose to do as much or as little as they wish.
Enjoying the the early morning while sitting on the deck with a good book or watching the sun set over the harbor late in the day are "simple pleasures" that can also be enjoyed.
We will welcome your return in the summer of 2013.

Everything I ever wanted in a Maine cottage!
Submitted: June 9, 2012
Stayed: October 2011
This was such a beautiful place to stay while visiting family. We loved the immaculate cleanliness (such a wonderful contrast to so many hotels), the quilt, the homey atmosphere, and the incredibly comfortable, high quality beds and furniture. Lovely views, too! We enjoyed every convenience: internet, excellent water pressure, wood burning fireplace, and a porch to relax on. Thanks so much! Will be staying with you for years to come.

Owner's Response: We appreciate your review of the Weathered Grey Cottage and are delighted that you enjoyed yourselves as much as we do in Tenants Harbor. Fall is quiet but it can be a lovely time to visit the area and take in the colors of the season. Your October holiday coincided with summer-like weather. We recall that you remarked that your Columbus Day sail to Camden was "The Best".
We have new mattresses, new curtains and even a ceiling fan in the living room this year! Each year we strive to make improvements to enhance the experience of our guests. We are happy that you found the cottage comfortable, and we look forward to seeing you in years to come!

What a lovely place to call our home during our first visit to Maine. In addition to being cozy and comfortable, the cottage was so well equipped - including every thing we needed to have our first ever lobster boil! We'll be back...

The cottage is cute, better than the pictures shown on any web site.However, it would be in your best interest to have the "maid" come over to give you the final ok before departure. Once you depart the cottage, and return back home, there is no legal recourse for you if money is withheld becuase of damages that you know you did not do.

Owner's Response: In response to the above review, we thank you for your positive comments about the cottage and sincerely regret that we had to charge a $25.00 fee, the cost of professionally removing stains, from an expensive coverlet that would have been otherwise unusable for future guests. We charge our guests a minimal, and in this case a $100.00 damage deposit of which $75.00 was returned to the renter. Our housekeeper readies the cottage for each guest. Our guests have the opportunity to give us immediate feedback . If anything is below their expectations, we will do our best to remedy the situation. In this case, our housekeeper observed the problem after our guest's departure and attempted to clean the coverlet herself, before having to have it professionally cleaned.
Cottage owners,Bed and Breakfast owners and hotels do not send a maid / housekeeper to check the property before the departure of each individual guest. They often take a damage deposit or secure their funds with the credit cards of their guests. As property owners, we want to return damage deposits in full and it is in our best interest to do so. Unfortunately, in this case, we had to deduct the charge for professional cleaning.

A Lovely Place for a Summer Stay in Maine

I loved the cottage – the fireplace, the rocking chair on the porch, the view of the cove through the beautiful trees, the comfortable bedroom, and the easy the floor plan. I quite enjoyed Tenant’s Harbor as well and didn’t realize how close the cottage is to Rockland – a favorite Maine town.
A delightful experience all around.

Owner's Response: We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at The Weathered Gray Cottage. The Lighthouse Museum and the Farnsworth Museum in Rockland as well as the diverse restaurants and boutiques make this city a lovely place to visit since it is only about ten miles away from the quiet comfort of the cottage. The rocking chair on the porch is a new addition this year--so happy that you enjoyed the view. Deb
