About this property

Charming Waterfront Cabin in the Woods

Our cabin provides rustic simplicity and the tranquil charm of life in the Maine woods overlooking the water.
In the MASTER BEDROOM, the combination of fresh Maine air and a comfortable Queen-size bed with patchwork quilt will have you sleeping soundly. You have 2 dressers for your jeans and t-shirts (all the wardrobe you'll need). In the GUEST ROOM, your guests or children will feel cozy in the built-in twin beds with a dresser. They have 2 bookshelves with an assortment of summer reading. There is a 'napping blanket' in every room just in case the need arises. The BATHROOM provides your basic needs with a sink, a toilet, and a hot shower. In the LIVING ROOM, there is a double sofa bed and 2 rustic cottage chairs. A picture window overlooks the bay and evening sunsets. For those cool days, you can make a fire in the glass-front woodstove, or just turn on the built-in propane heater. If the day is warm, open the doors at each end and the new screened windows, and you'll be comfortable. A countertop with stools separates the kitchen from the living room. The compact KITCHEN is fully furnished with a 4-burner gas stove and oven, sink and refrigerator. There is also a toaster oven, microwave, coffee maker and a complete set of dishes, pots and pans, glasses and utensils.

A small TV/VCR and a drawer full of a variety of videos as well as an AM/FM radio and a well-stocked bookshelf will satisfy your basic relaxation needs when you're indoors. There's a napping blanket in every room except the kitchen. Outdoors, you can lounge in the Sky Chair, in the hammock or on the deck with a good book.
If you prefer, either take a walk to Wolfe's Neck Farm and Wolfe's Neck State Park for delightful views of Casco Bay. Two kayaks and a canoe are available at high tide to be used at your own risk.

If you're ready for more, you're only 3 miles from L.L. Bean and over 150 upscale outlet stores. Fresh seafood abounds in Freeport from gourmet to New England classics, with even more offerings in neighboring Portland and Brunswick.

Best Maine Cabin Ever!
Loved the location of this cabin, close enough to Freeport while also embracing its wilderness location complete with a waterfall and waterfront access to the Harraseeket River via kayaks and canoes. Spent plenty of time enjoying the outdoors with the fire pit, the cabin itself provided everything we needed for our trip! If I’m ever back in Freeport I’ll be sure to stay here again!

Rustic Cabin in Freeport
Very nice week! The owners were wonderful to talk to. The property is beautiful. Very nice views and awesome sunsets with camp fires! The cabin is old but very clean and cozy. It’s exactly as advertised! Location to LL Bean is very close and the Wolf’s Neck Farm and State park are even closer! I would rent there again when I can

Rustic!
We enjoyed our week at this old rustic cabin. The view of the water, the sound of the waterfall and the privacy are great. The nearby state park is great for biking and short hikes. It's nice that Freeport is convenient.

About the host

We are a retired couple of teachers who enjoy the outdoors and the company of others.

Why they chose this property

We first bought our cottage in the woods of Freeport for a place to escape the winters of dormitory living. Later, our cottage became a place to bring our children and then our grandchildren for some special time together in a natural setting.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage is a place to come for quiet rambles and escape from the hectic life in the outside world. There are, however, many opportunities to find a variety of entertainments a very short distance away.
