Charming Cottage a Stroll to Camden Harbor—Book early to secure dates 2024!

(NOTE: RENTALS START ON SATURDAY unless otherwise confirmed with owner.) Situated on a quiet, residential street this adorably updated, circa 1900 farmhouse is just a FIVE MINUTE WALK TO DOWNTOWN CAMDEN and its picturesque harbor. Bright and cheery, the two bedroom home offers comfortable furnishings and everything you need in your 'home-away-from-home' including a deck and private brick patio for outdoor dining and relaxing. The interior features restored wide plank pine floors upstairs and an ANTIQUE CLAW TUB, as well as a NEW shower, in the second floor bathroom. SIMMONS BEAUTY REST PLUSH MATTRESS SET in Master Bedroom. Downstairs there is a well stocked full kitchen with CORIAN countertops, separate sunny eating area seating six, a spacious family room and separate living/TV room with 32' FLAT SCREEN SMART TV which can be closed off via french doors from the rest of the house. We offer Direct TV stream (entertainment package), NETFLIX and Amazon Prime TV.

Camden is a lovely coastal town offering something for everyone. Enjoy views of MOUNT BATTIE from the front stoop or take a 30 minute moderate hike to the summit from the TRAIL HEAD at the AT THE TOP OF THE STREET. Those less adventuresome can drive to the top via the Mount Battie State Park entrance. Either way the reward is a marvelous view of the harbor, bay, and outlying islands. Bald Rock Trail in Camden Hills State Park was listed as one of the world's most scenic walks (Departures, Adam H Graham, Mar/Apr 2012)

If you would rather not cook your own lobsters in our convenient outdoor propane lobster and shellfish pot, take a walk to the wharf for a lobster feast at Peter Ott's on the harbor, enjoy a harbor view from The VIEW rooftop bar at 16 Bay View hotel, wonderful dining in town at FRESH & CO., and award winning LONG GRAIN (reservations recommended) among others. Or you can chose to hang out with the locals at Cuzzy's and enjoy a Maine micro-brew beer and play some pool. You may also want to reserve a spot on one of the various wooden sailing schooners for a tour of Penobscot Bay or learn to kayak with Maine Sports Kayak Tours. Town events include the Camden Food and Wine Festival in June, Country Roads Artist & Artisans Tour in September and Lobster Festival in nearby Rockand In July. Camden also offers a wide variety of restaurants, gourmet food and wine purveyors and unique shops where you can find upscale clothing, local pottery/art, antiques,
and more.

Wicker Cottage a Winner
Our visit to Camden was truly enhanced by our stay at Wicker. The Cottage was attractive, very clean and well outfitted, especially the kitchen. There were numerous places to relax, both inside and outside the house. The neighborhood was a ten minute walk from the downtown area with its numerous restaurants. And we had excellent communication with the owner. In all, a first rate VRBO experience.

Lovely Charming cottage
We had a lovely time staying in this charming house on a quiet street, which is just so nice that it is walking distance right into town/the harbor. Michelle’s home was so accommodating and she was very available if we had any questions. We will be back! And in case anyone loves to cook, there are so many dishes and pots and pans including two cast-irons which we used the most! Plenty of wine glasses etc. The lady across the street asked to keep the porch light off because it shines in her bedroom window. Just fyi for future guests!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Welty

Host profile image
My husband, Keith, grew up on the coast of Maine, therefore it was inevitable we would eventually own a house in Maine--although we live and work in Florida! We love our time in Camden and believe anyone who visits will also fall in love with the area. If you love nature, hiking, kayaking, sailing--or just enjoying the beautiful northeast climate and scenery--we urge you to spend some time in Camden and surrounding midcoast Maine! -Michelle & Keith
