Full Moon on the Harraseeket, Freeport, Maine

Welcome to the Fish House; a small home on the Harraseeket River, near South Freeport Harbor that comes well stocked and decorated. It is available for weekly rental during June-September.

The home is perfect for a romantic getaway or kayaker's dream vacation. Enjoy beautiful views of Casco Bay and South Freeport's own Harraseeket River. An ideal spot to relax and rejuvenate. A canoe or kayak can be launched right from the front yard. The Harraseeket River is delightful for kayaking, as well as the gateway to Freeport Harbor and into Casco Bay. While staying on the river, you may be fortunate enough to experience a full moon. Some of us believe, there is nothing prettier than a full moon on the Harraseeket.

Start your day with an iced coffee and breakfast sandwich down the road at the Village Market. Or later in the day enjoy a lobster roll at the Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster. Additionally there are three premier southern Maine breweries (Goodfire, Maine Beer Company, and Mast Landing) all within a mile of the home. Just five minutes away is downtown Freeport, home of LL Bean and many well-known retail outlets. From Freeport, you are well positioned to make day trips to many Maine coastal beaches and towns. In Freeport, you have Wolf Neck State Park and Winslow Park to enjoy. Portland is just 19 miles away for access to city life as well as ferries to islands in Casco Bay.

Very nicely furnished in a great location
The cottage is small, sunny, and comfortable with a large loft and lovely view from the back deck. We enjoyed eating outside amid the flowering plants and watching many birds come and go. The neighborhood is pleasant for walking and it is an easy walk to a tidal beach. The kitchen has everything you might need and the AC is a bonus on really hot days.

Anne's Cottage Stay
The cottage has a welcoming atmosphere with comfortable and attractive furnishings. The kitchen is small but well equipped. There is a lovely peaceful view of the harraseeket River on the back deck where we ate many meals. The cottage is a 6 minute drive to Freeport and qiute conveniently located to the excellent Bow Street Market. Annie is a great host.

Wonderful place to stay in Freeport
The cottage was the perfect place to stay with my two daughters (8 & 10). They had the entire loft to themselves & i got my own room. It was the perfect size & we didn't even need to use the downstairs bed. Even though our week was rainy, I still woke up to a gorgeous view of the water each day. It was located close downtown Freeport & Bow Street Market. We hopefully will be staying next year as well!

Beautiful scenery
Property was beautifully maintained, as well as clean and very well equipped with items to start your stay. Including the convenience of being so close to Downtown Freeport, and Portland was short drive away. We would definitely stay again especially for the views.

Great place to unwind!
My husband and I and our two sons stayed for about a week at the house while attending a family reunion. It was lovely! The view to the water is so peaceful and gorgeous. We kayaked a few times and mostly took it easy on the deck talking and eating at the table. The house is comfy and decorated beautifully. Annie was so easy to work with and very responsive to questions. We would definitely go back.

Wonderful location
The cottage is small, very comfortable, has everything you need, and the view is just beautiful (my computer background has already been updated with a photo I took of the backyard and river). The location is great! So close to Freeport shopping, restaurants, and Maine Brewing. The drive to Portland is quick and easy. Would stay here again!

Coastal Maine at Its Very Best
This was our fourth visit to this property, and there is nothing we don't love about it. It's become a part of our summer planning. The cottage is cozy and immaculate, and has everything our family of four needs for a perfect vacation. The kitchen is well stocked and works perfectly for us; our girls get their own bedroom spaces downstairs and in the loft; and the green space outside is phenomenal (so many birds!). Location could not be better for trips to Portland, Brunswick, Popham, Rockland, and, of course, Freeport shopping. Anne is a fantastic communicator and an extremely generous host. You will not be disappointed. This is a true GEM.

Perfect location
We spent a week using our little sailboat in Casco Bay and this was the perfect spot for our family. Gorgeous views. Wonderful deck and fire pit. Cozy and comfortable all the way around. A nice quiet neighborhood but close to the grocery store and downtown if shopping is your thing. We’d definitely stay again!

Beautiful cottage and wonderful owner. Our THIRD visit!
Our family of four loves this property. This year was our third visit. Beautiful, quiet neighborhood, lovely furnishings, and everything you need to feel at home. The view from the deck and the sounds of birds in the surrounding trees are sublime. Open the sliding door and enjoy the fresh air blowing in through the screen all day long. Five minutes to downtown Freeport. Easy drive up to Brunswick or down to Portland. This is "Downeast" perfection, and you couldn't ask for a more gracious, helpful owner.

This little place is has beautiful view, any hour of the day or evening, out onto the water. The kitchen has everything you might need for whipping up breakfast or grilling a tasty dinner. Amy also left a booklet of suggested places to visit, dining, activies etc which was very helpful. We had a great week.

Peaceful retreat
Our family of 4 had a great time at this cute home. Amazing views and close enough to everything but removed enough to be completely peaceful. We really loved watching the bald eagles from the living room, deck and front yard. Be sure to check out Sandy Beach, we didn't discover this until later in our stay but it's a tiny little beach just down the street from the home, very convenient and secluded.
