North Haven House | The Sea Rose - with Private beach access & kayaks

4 Bedroom House in North Haven

**This is a Memorial Day Weekend through mid-October rental only. The house is not winterized. Get in touch early, as the summer is a busy time on North Haven and it’s best to book well in advance.
North Haven is an island in Penobscot Bay and a beautiful, 12-mile ferry ride overlooking the Camden Hills. It is best to get a car reservation 30 days in advance through the Maine Department of Transportation.
Our cottage is a simple 4-bedroom, 1 bath house on a saltmarsh within a very short walking distance to beach. This is a working harbor with several lobster boats but the beach is semi-private. The water is clear and clean to the bottom but not for the faint of heart! We have 2 kayaks available, liability waiver required in advance. The back deck overlooks the marsh, Bartlett’s Harbor, and endless bird life. Some nights the gorgeous, old windjammers anchor in the harbor and you are awakened by their 8 o’clock bell in the morning! At night you will hear crickets and waves lapping, and you can lie or sit on the porch under a blanket as we did as children and count shooting stars in the vibrant Milky Way.
We have all the kitchen amenities as the kitchen was newly renovated in 2022 and includes a dishwasher. There is a washer and dryer. Wi-Fi, Roku TV, or a game closet for those who want to unplug. You can even play Corn Hole or Horseshoes on the side lawn.
The island has several organic farms with a Saturday farmer’s market, 3 restaurants – one fancy, one luncheon type, and one with amazing pizza, and our very own micro-brewery where you can buy ‘growlers’ and refill them! There is also a gift shop, galleries, and The Waterman Community Center which has a theater and a coffee bar. The nine-hole golf course was voted one of the 50 most beautiful in the world by Sports Illustrated. There are several public beaches great for picnics. Lobster is easily available from several sources.
Our family has gone to North Haven every summer since 1958. If you are looking for a fancy, resort-like vacation, this is not for you. You are in the country and in a simple, country home. But if you need to get away and breathe the purest of air, this is it!
** This is a classic Maine vacation rental and is not a suitable option for physical disabilities or impairments that involve climbing antique, steep stairs. Also, our bathroom is on the ground floor and bedrooms are on the second floor. Would prefer no more than 6 people.
