MAINE COAST WATERFRONT Picturesque Heron View Cottage on Machias Bay | Cottage in Machiasport
2 Bedroom Cottage in Machiasport
Heron View Cottage is a charming retreat located directly on scenic Machias Bay, on the spectacular Downeast Coast of Maine. This picturesque, historic 200-year-old cottage has all modern amenities and is cozy and affordable. It's the the perfect getaway for a couple, small family, group of 3, or an individual looking to experience the Maine coast in an idyllic setting. The lovely 2-bedroom cottage has beautiful, sweeping views of Machias Bay from expansive windows in the dining room, bedroom and even bathroom. An enclosed porch also has magnificent bay views and is always a wonderful place to relax. Features of the cottage include comfortable country antique furnishings, and the spacious living room features a fireplace where you can enjoy the ambiance of its soothing warmth and comforting crackle. There is one bedroom on each floor and a fully-equipped galley kitchen. Please note that rentals have a 7 night minimum stay. Rentals are Saturday to Saturday (although some exceptions can be made).
The Outdoors: Heron View Cottage is just a short drive from Jasper Beach, with its expansive, half-mile-long cobble beach and surf. There are several hiking trails located in Cutler that are only a 20+ minute drive from the house. The Bold Coast, Boot Cove and Hamilton Cove (among others) trails skirt along the edge of rugged ocean cliffs and scenic vistas. They are “must do” hikes when visiting the Downeast coast area.
Another “must do” while in the area is the Atlantic Puffin boat tours offered by Captain Cates of the Bold Coast Charter Company out of Cutler harbor. These beautiful and rare parrot-like seabirds only frequent a few of the rugged offshore islands along the Maine coast. Your destination of Machias Seal Island, only 9 miles off Cutler, is the largest puffin colony on the Maine coast, with thousands more birds than any other site. But if you want to do this, please book early!
Lobsters and Whales: The cottage is only a short drive to the lobster wharf in Bucks Harbor where you'll have the opportunity to pick out your own fresh lobsters near the pier. You can also hop on a whale-watching cruise departing from Eastport daily. The cottage is only 1 hour from this popular and picturesque whale-watching port.
