Peacefull house on the water
This house is our peaceful oasis. We enjoy our morning coffee with the sunrise over the water. It has a newly renovated kitchen, bathroom, and living area. It is located in a small coastal Maine town but is just minutes away from shopping and restaurants. The views from the coastline and the local islands are beautiful. Boating and scenic hiking trails are easily accessible and fun.
The house is built on a private road with only 8 other neighbors, most of whom are year round residents that enjoy the quiet life of Mid-coast Maine

Our family thoroughly enjoyed at stay at this wonderful property. The home was perfect for the 5 of us and we enjoyed how well equipped the house was for us to cook a few meals and enjoy some very relaxing mornings and evenings. The view over the water was so relaxing and I enjoyed seeing the sunrises from the porch with my cup of coffee.
Our family had a great stay. Cushing is in a great spot for daytrips to Rockland, Camden, Boothbay, Freeport, and more. The is house is a prefect balance of Maine cozy with modern amenities on a very quiet street.
Just enjoy a lovely week at this location. Very well and thoughtfully stocked. Clean and comfortable. Easy check in and responsive owner. This is in a quiet area of Maine with access to lovely trails and peaceful settings, but also has easy access to Rockland and Camden. We enjoyed our stay.
My family of three so enjoyed our stay at Jonathan's cottage nestled in the wood with a lovely view of the St. George River. We hosted lobster dinner (fresh off the boat in Friendship!) for our Maine relatives on the covered porch. The house was so very well stocked with everything we needed to cook and make cocktails. If you want quiet, this is the place! Nothing but the sound of the sea birds and the lobsterman checking their traps. Great location for visiting the Camden area. I recommend the Rockland Cafe, Camden Cone Ice Cream, Antiques at 10 Mechanic and Keag store for crab rolls. Thank you again for our wonderful Maine vacation.
We had the privilege to rent this home for the month of July. It was just the two of us and a perfect spot. This home is equipped with everything you could possibly need and has a fabulous view of the St. George River to the east. We couldn’t take advantage of the cute fire pit due to a lot of rain but we managed to entertain ourselves! The owners were very responsive to questions and the reservation/check-in process was smooth. Loved having a full size washer and dryer. The master bed was real comfy. The bathroom and kitchen are updated. While it did not bother us be aware that this property is on a dirt/gravel road and a bit of a hike into town of Thomaston. Also there is one bath. The master is conveniently on first floor but 2 other bedrooms are upstairs. We have rented on the midcoast for a number of years and this place was a real find. Thanks for a lovely month!
This cozy home had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving getaway. It's beautifully updated, warm, comfortable, and centrally located to what we wanted to do. It's located in a quiet, riverfront area for a peaceful stay. Only the turkeys, squirrels, and an occasional lobster boat to get your attention. Just perfect.
I highly recommend this property.
We had a great week and the location was perfect for us. The house is very comfortable. It was so nice to hang out and relax. The fire pit was great and we spent many mornings and evenings sitting on the porch. Would love to return again!
Home was great and as advertised for our family of 6…washer/dryer, fire pit, front porch, and access to water were bonuses. Well located geographically for fresh lobster, pocket beaches, or morning coffee/breakfast in Thomaston. Would rent again!
This home in Cushing is beautiful and peacefully located overlooking the river. We loved sitting outside watching the water birds including a bald eagle, as well as the fishing boats. The home is very comfortable and excellently stocked. I would love to come back.
We enjoyed our relaxing stay; very comfortable. The owner was most helpful.. The water view from the house was wonderful ; a lovely start to the day! Enjoyed coffee on the porch overlooking the cove, so peaceful! We looked forward to our evenings spent around the fire pit. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped, Overall a very rural and peaceful location, a most pleasant get away!!

Nice property
Nice property, house a little rustic but lots of potential
We had the pleasure of staying at this property for the month of July this summer. It was a perfect location to enjoy many of our favorite Midcoast places as it is convenient to Rockland, Thomaston, Friendship, and more. The water view from the porch is peaceful and lovely, and we enjoyed eating outside for most of our meals. We have three young children who loved roaming the property, playing in the large front yard, riding their bikes on the gravel road, and eating tons of s’mores at the awesome fire pit. (There is a drop off to the water so it does require some monitoring for toddlers on the move).
The house is one of the best stocked homes we have been in and we’ve rented in the area for 5 years. The kitchen is well equipped for those who like cooking and there’s an impressive board game collection. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and responsive throughout our long stay.
This home is a rare find—charming but functional with an off the beaten path but convenient location! We would definitely return!
The location is very remote and quiet. The home has new renovations of the kitchen and bathroom, and the pantry was very thoughtfully stocked. Our hosts were incredibly accessible and kind. Our weather was beautiful, although it was quite warm for sleeping. The fire pit was a big hit with our family. It is located on a tidal river, however there is not water access currently, nor is this a swimming or kayaking location as the water is far from the actual shore for the majority of the time. The neighboring towns of Rockland and Camden were quaint. Camden is one of the most beautiful towns we have ever visited. It is about 2 hours to Acadia and the trip was completely worth it. The park is breathtaking! Lobster festival was quite a tourist event, and lobster is a prevailing theme for the area.
Our family of four had a wonderful week at this home. The kitchen and family room are terrific. We also loved the porch and views of the water. The owners are very welcoming and incredibly responsive. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing stay in Maine!
My husband and I try to get to the mid coast area of Maine every year. We always rent from Vrbo (formerly HoneAway) and always have a great experience. We have rented 5 properties in Maine on previous occasions and while we were very happy and pleased with them—this one by far was my favorite. The location of the property was perfect for our explorations and daily travels. The view from the house overlooking the water was beautiful and relaxing. The house itself was absolutely perfect. Tastefully decorated and fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. The bed in the master is super comfy and everything was spotless. The kitchen is gorgeous, fully stocked and a pleasure to cook in. The owners are super responsive to all questions/concerns and made sure we were comfortable and happy. I am definitely going to try to return to this property next year—we loved everything about it!!!
We stayed for February break (2 adults, 2 kids 7 & 10). We had a wonderful time exploring the area and cozying up by the fire. The house was organized and clean. It was just what we needed.
This peaceful house on the water is just that, and inside it is comfortable and well appointed, a great spot for relaxing. The house is full of thoughtful touches - stayed here over Christmas with my husband and brother and the homeowners put up lovely holiday decorations. This is a true gem even in the winter time - we spent much of our stay lounging on the comfy living room furniture enjoying the fireplace and the incredible view of the water and the trees.
Wonderful Location to spend post Labor Day week. Beautiful view of river master bedroom comfortable and overall clean. Enjoyed using the wood insert fireplace and eating meals on the back patio porch. Charming Maine house, with updated amenities. Would recommend for future visits!
Note: stairs & upstair bedrooms are wall to wall carpeting if sensitive to that
I was very happy with this place and it was just as I’d imagined, as it looked exactly like the pictures. The location was excellent for me and the view was spectacular. The updated kitchen exceeded my expectations and the hosts were great as they were very responsive to any questions I had. I was very pleased with my stay.
Beautifully redone home with space for everyone! Beds are comfortable. Location is quiet except for the boats that go up and down the river. Easy check in and easy check out. Owner very responsive to questions.
I just want to elaborate on how well stocked this house was. There was a hairdryer and curling irons, cards and board games, a fully stocked pantry and plenty of coffee, condiments, spices, everything needed for laundry, bug spray, nice pens… it was one of the best stocked Vrbo homes I’ve ever stayed in. The house and grounds was very clean and comfortable in every way. The access to the water was maybe the one thing that is an effort. The dock in the photos belongs to a neighboring house. This was not an issue for us because it rained every day we were there. But if you think you are going to spend time on the beach at this house, I’d say that’s not the selling point. However, it’s a lovely place to wake up to and we loved that there was a covered area to sit outside during the rainy days. I hope to stay here again next summer!
