About this property

This approx. 850sf cottage is situated 15' from mean high tide on Mussel Ridge Channel on 2.2 landscaped acres in mid-coast Maine. The cottage is a one bed, one bath with full kitchen, dining/sitting area and living room with a sofa that pulls out into a queen sized bed.
A large deck that runs the length of the cottage has a table and chairs for outside dining and adirondack chairs for watching water (a surprisingly enjoyable pastime). TV and internet available. Heron, eider ducks and eagles or osprey (depending on which one kicked the other out of the nearby nest) share the enjoyment of this location. There is also a rolling air conditioner to cool things off in the heat of the summer. Hammock and Weber grill also on site.

Flotillas of geese and ducks float by

Beautiful site with views of the water and outer islands, with Spruce Head visible to the far right. The cottage works very well for two people, could accommodate children. It sits in its own private spot on the water at the back of a well kept property shared with a big house and barns. We look forward to renting it again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Karen L. Knopper

After practicing law in NYC for a good number of years, I moved back to Detroit and now the own two pet boarding facilities in suburban Detroit. Dogs are a lot more fun than other lawyers. I started coming up to Maine in the mid-70's with a law student chum of mine whose family had a camp on Spruce Head Island.

Why they chose this property

After renting the cottage from a gentleman for two weeks every summer for several years, he asked if I wanted to buy it as he was building a 'real' house in Owls Head. The rest is history.
