About this property

Maine Ocean Front - Near Camden - Family Friendly

Perfect retreat from this busy world. 1850's peaceful house on 5 acres with oceanfront and a barn. Our home is rustic as we are always trying to renew it and have enjoyed putting our own touch into the house.

Love cappuccinos?... Green Tree Coffee Roasters, featured in the NY Times, is across the street. Nothing can compare to waking up downwind on a roasting day. Dots bakery and gourmet sandwich shop is a couple doors down - perfect for a picnic lunch, quiche breakfast or a perfect wine. Walk down the property with stair access to the ocean (0.5m) and then walk down the rock beach to Lincolnville Beach - my kids favorite. Or just relax in the Adirondack chairs and watch the boats. Walking distance to the Islesboro ferry - take a day trip to this beautiful island.

The kitchen has a big bay window and window seat which is perfect for relaxing. For those who love cooking, the kitchen is equipped with a professional gas stove with double oven.

We have done a bit of renovating this year. The exterior has needed painting badly, but it has been very difficult the past two years to find available painters or handymen. But we have been updating it ourselves and have finally gotten around the front. We have replaced a lot of the tired screens as well.

There is a dining room and living room as well as the library bedroom, which has a queen bed. The downstairs bathroom has a shower. The upstairs features beautiful 12" pumpkin pine boards. The upstairs has two bedrooms and a full bath with a tub. The upstairs also has an additional bedroom that faces the water, but the ceiling is not full height (which why I don't include it in the total bedrooms). In total, three bedrooms, two bath and a queen pullout couch in the living room.

Our barn still has its rustic charm and its own unique history. Jane Wazey, a previous owner used the barn as her art studio and carved the Andre the Seal statue. The statue is located in Rockport Harbor. If you are not familiar with the story about Andre the Seal, he lived with a local family and would return every year. It is worth reading the book or watching the movie before you come visit, especially if you have young children.

Great location
My family had so much fun in Maine. The house is in a great location. Walking distance to Lincolnville beach, great coffee shop next door, great market next door, close to Camden hills, we hiked Mount Megunticook, shopped in Camden, took the Ferry to Isleboro and spent the day. So much to do in the area. Vivienne was very responsive, friendly and easy to deal with.

This house is in the perfect location- easy access to water/ hiking / midcoast towns next door to a delish maine market and coffee roaster… the house itself is a charming old farm house that has all the basic stuff. If you are looking for high end - this isn’t your place. For us, we loved the comfy, lived in beach house vibe. My kids (8 and 5 ) loved all the games provided. The property has a rambling lawn down to the sea. The beach is rocky but you can walk along it- or drive - to a nice swim spot. The only con is we couldn’t stay longer. Plan to return!!!

Perfect getaway!
Beautiful property with rolling field down to the waterfront. Charming old Maine farmhouse was warm and comfortable, provided everything we needed for a wonderful family gathering. Outside space for eating, star gazing and fire ring was perfect. A great location to explore Camden, Belfast and all the surrounding areas. It was a perfect place for us!

Great family vacation!
Understand what you’re renting if you stay here: this is a farmhouse built in 1860. It’s been maintained, but if you’re looking for fancy, luxurious lodging, look elsewhere. If however, you want a clean, spacious house that can comfortably accommodate 7-8 people of varying ages, with a well-stocked kitchen, and ocean beach access, this is a great place to stay. Yes, you’ll probably encounter a few bugs and the shower/washer are a little temperamental, and there’s no AC, but our family (grandparents, brother and his girlfriend, and our young kids) all had a really nice stay. The one major issue that we encountered was the battery on the code-lock died and we were locked out, but we managed to put my 7 year old through a window and get in. Other than that, everything was as expected and we felt like this was a good value.

Lincolnville Stay
This home has all the charm of a older farm house. We spent most of our time at the waterfront in the backyard. If you are looking for luxury this is not your place. It’s minimally furnished and but does have a comfortable bed. Having the coffee shop and Dots next door made our trip even better!

Great location but house was dirty and uncomfortable.
Great location, easy to get to all local activities. LOVED Dots and Green Tree Coffee right next store. The walk to the ocean on the property is lovely. However, the house itself was a mess and we didn't stay our entire week because we were so uncomfortable. We walked in the door to a house FULL of black flies. The surfaces were dirty and dusty. There was only one roll of toilet paper. After our 8 hour drive we turned right around to go the store to buy cleaning supplies, a fly swatter, and paper products. Unhappy about paying a cleaning fee when we did all the cleaning. Towels and bedding were stained. We all chose to wear our flip flops when showering because the bathrooms felt so grimy. Terrible water pressure, couldn't rinse the shampoo out of my hair. There's only one couch in the house which means no comfortable seating if there's more than 2 people. Bare bones and old farmhouse charm are fine. Dirty and uncomfortable for this price is not fine.

Beautiful property and location; house needs work
We loved the location and long meadow to beautiful rocky beach. The grounds and landscaping are lovely. The picture window in the kitchen and architecture and charming and fully of character. We expected and enjoy an old house but found its overall condition (windows, water, appliances, beds) and the furnishings worse than expected and felt the description was a bit misleading compared to reality. It’s also quite close to Rte 1 and therefore loud.

Our stay at “Fox Trot”
The house is somewhat run down, though also old and charming. It seems like the owners have taken a minimal approach to repairing and repainting. I was disappointed in the lack of comfortable seating and the broken furniture. Also, the water pressure in the house is not adequate. There were stains on some of the bed linens. I would describe the house as adequate, but certainly not luxurious. More could be done to add to the experience of staying there. It is in a great location and has a beautiful property associated with it.

Located within walking distance to two beaches
We enjoyed the location and the land surrounding the property, with immediate access to a rocky beach, and a short 3-5 min walk to the sandy Lincolnville Beach. Coffee is just across the street at Green Tree and groceries are next door at Dot's. The house itself is best for families who enjoy a more rustic stay.
