Idyllic

This is a spectacular property overlooking the tidal Benjamin River, seen through the huge windows in the livingroom as well as from a nice outdoor deck, patios and expansive lawn with Adirondack chairs. The beds were super comfy, kitchen had everything we needed, and it was very convenient to get to Deer Isle, Blue Hill and all the other nearby towns. Highly recommended!

Rustic charm

This was a quaint cottage with a beautiful view. It was secluded and a much needed break from electronics. I could spend all day looking at the view from inside and outside the cottage!

Plein Air Painting Retreat

The main room of the cottage is spacious and filled with light glimmering off the Sedgewick Harbor, no matter how gray the day or how low the tide. The bedrooms are small and dark, but there is a pull-out in the living room. The cottage is well equipped for cooking practically anything and the kitchen is nice and clean. There are plenty of towels and warm bedclothes if needed. The cottage sits pretty close to the road, which seems to see only local traffic and friendly people walking. There is a screen on the road side of the patio that makes for a feeling of privacy. Next to the patio is a new shed which was very handy as a studio catch-all for storing wet paintings and painting paraphernalia. Sedgewick is in a great spot for finding water views on the nearby peninsulas and gourmet food and arty gifts in the town of Blue Hill. This cottage seems ideal for adults, not so ideal for young kids. I would recommend it.

Wonderful stay

Everything was wonderful! The view was amazing and the home was clean and had everything we needed. The location is quiet and peaceful while only a 10-15 minute drive for necessities. The biggest challenge is wanting to explore the area but not wanting to leave! We had a minor issue at check-in that was resolved promptly by the host. It was a nice relaxing stay and we would definitely stay again!

Relaxing views and a good night's sleep!

We loved our week in this house! As everyone says, the views are just wonderful to have, morning, noon and night. The water was very calm and often like glass. Wildlife included lots of birds and even a dolphin swimming out around the boats. Queen bed was very comfortable for me, and plenty of hot water for showers; kitchen was small but stocked with lots of useful cooking gear! Space was great for playing games, guitar and doing the crosswords together. Much to do in the area, our favorite is Deer Isle, where there are many places to visit. Would definitely recoommend!

A perfect view for your morning coffee

The property was very clean and exactly as pictured. The hosts were very fast to get back to us with any questions we had.. I could not get enough of the beautiful view. I was able to find a lot of Beach glass right at the waters edge and at the dock just down the street. The bedroom with the queen bed is a bit on the tight side. The bed was very comfortable though. I actually forgot I wasn't in my own bed one night. The bathroom is also tight but very manageable. This is in a very quiet area with a good drive to any place of interest. We spent a lot of time driving. The only true issue I had was internet conection. I have cheaper cell phone and I had absolutly no service including texts or phone. I was fine with my laptop. The rest of the family had service, sometimes a little choppy. Overall a wonderful place to stay. I would highly recommend it.

The hosts checked in on us several times. They made suggestions for the area and answered questions. The location feels secluded, is super quiet, and has amazing views of the bay and its ever-changing array of boats.

Quiet, cozy and beautiful view!

Property is exactly as pictured! Right on the water, amazing views of boats coming in and out of the harbor. Perfect if you are looking to avoid the crowds, just be aware most of the major attractions (Acadia, Bar Harbor, Searsport etc) are about an hour away. There is a decent little grocery store in nearby Blue Hill, and a Walmart and other major outlets in Ellsworth. Definitely worth a stay!

The house was old, cute and clean. Views were beautiful! Quiet area and stores/dining were about 20 minutes away, so that was nice. Our cellular service was very spotty in the area, so definitely needed Wi-Fi. The only negative was lack of privacy shades in the bathroom and living area, and needed a big mirror in the bathroom sink. We felt too exposed at night time.
