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.

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.

Cozy Cottage in a Beautiful Maine town.
We had a very nice time in the house and surrounding area. The cottage is as advertised - very comfy! The location is convenient to sights up and down the coast and there are a number of nice restaurants and a couple of lobster shacks within 1/2 hour of the cottage.

Camden Maine - Wicker Cottage
The property was in a great location and had everything you could possibly want. The decor fit a water/mountain location theme and yard landscaped beautifully. Our host reached out to check in as to how we were doing. Maine sites were breath taking. We really enjoyed our visit. This was our first time reserving a vacation spot through VRBO and is was a good experience.

Perfect in every way!
This is our second time staying at Wicker Cottage - we walked in and said "We're home!". The cottage is charming, beautifully maintained, scrupulously clean, thoroughly stocked and within an easy 5 minute walk to Camden Village and the harbor. Couldn't have asked for anything more - we'll be back again!

Comfortable house in a beautiful town
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our week at the Wicker Cottage in Camden. The home is located in a quiet residential neighborhood within easy walking distance from town. We loved the restaurants, shops, and beautiful scenery of Camden, and we had fun exploring various attractions up and down the coast from our Wicker Cottage home base. We wholeheartedly recommend this property!

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 Camden Cottage
Such a sweet cottage in the seaside village of Camden. It was close to town, the waterfront/marina, restaurants & shops. Very nice little bay for booking a sailboat ride. The cottage was roomy with two sitting rooms, the beds were comfortable, nice bathrooms & kitchen, and a great location! Such a nice, comfy place to unwind and relax after a day of being out. Don't miss the mint brownies at the Deli in town!

Just lovely!
Wicker Cottage is as lovely in person as it appears on VRBO. The owner has it extremely well appointed with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and elsewhere. The furnishings are comfortable, the grounds are beautifully planted and the location is within an easy walk to Camden harbor and the center of the village. Thoughtful touches are everywhere - we couldn't have been more pleased!

Close to historic downtown.
The Wicker Cottage is situated in a quiet neighborhood and had everything we needed to make our stay a pleasant one. We especially liked that you can walk to historic downtown in less than 5 minutes. If you like trail hiking, the Mount Battie trail head is just a short walk up the street from the house. And of course Susan was very quick to reply to any questions we had about the place and surroundings. This is a place we would not hesitate to stay at again on our next trip to Camden.

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!

Almost Perfect
The cottage was adorable, exactly as pictured, and in a fabulous location on a quiet side-street but only a 5-minute walk to downtown. And Camden is an ideal base for trips to the islands, Castine, even a day trip to Acadia National Park. (Just be aware that the stairs are VERY steep, almost like a ladder. We're an older couple & they were a challenge. I'd also be concerned about young children.)

Lovely, comfortable cottage, perfectly located too
This was our second stay at Wicker Cottage in as many years, and we felt like we were returning to our home away from home. There's a lot of soft color and light in the house -- both color and light matter a lot to us -- and everything we needed was right there. We loved being able to walk downtown and to the harbor, and being so close to the Megunticook Market, which we happily discovered on this trip. On the local tourism front, we made it this time to Marriner's Restaurant in downtown Camden for their famed blueberry pancakes, which more than lived up to their reputation. We also made daytrips to Belfast (mainly for gift shopping) and Rockland (for the Farnsworth Museum) -- both very enjoyable towns. I hope to make a birthday tradition of an October stay at Wicker Cottage over many years to come. Thank you, Michelle!

Camden Hideaway
Perfect location. Three blocks away from downtown Camden. The cottage was well stocked with supplies, dishwares, silver ware, kitchen essentials, and appropriate cleaning goods. The kitchen eating area was certainly adequate for four people to eat. Plenty of space upstairs and downstairs. Quaint little sitting area, den with television, cd player, and copy seating. Upstairs there were two good sized bedrooms with shared bathroom with shower. It was very hot and humid during our stay; we enjoyed having air-conditioning unit in kitchen and each bedroom . Outside small patio with table chairs and grill. The shed had recreational items for use ( we did not use them). We highly recommend this cottage. The communication between us and the owner was fantastic; immediate response for all our questions.

Odd smell?
Upon entry to house my wife and I noticed a peculiar smell. Kinda overwhelming actually. We thought perhaps it was the disinfectant used to clean the property. After opening windows and airing it out, the odor was still bad! Unfortunately, after three days, gwe were unable to tolerate the odor and left a day early. The cottage is in a quiet neighborhood and is vey well equipped! However, the stairs leading to upstair bedrooms are very narrow and steep, not much room for me to carry carry-on luggage.

Charming Camden Home with a Sunny Disposition
We've stayed in VRBO's all across America and in Europe too. Occasionally, we find one that we wish we could visit repeatedly (or forever) and WICKER COTTAGE is on that list. I hesitate to leave this review, because if word get out about this place, I might not get another reservation! This house is ideally situated about a block and a half from Camden's quaint high street shopping, restaurants and harbor. While both bedrooms are located upstairs, this was perfect for us as I am an early riser and enjoyed my quiet moments downstairs with my coffee, while the hubby slept blissfully upstairs. I AM A SHEET SNOB and Michelle's linens did not disappoint. They felt like butter and I ordered a similar set on-line as soon as I returned home! The kitchen is fabulously stocked. I am one of those weirdos who enjoys cooking (some) on vacation - gas stove, crockpot on-hand, and even an outdoor grill, which satisfied our need for steak one night - visit French and Brawn for the best cuts of meat in town. The decor is on-point for a relaxing home near the sea. The upstairs bathroom has a wonderful clawfoot tub AND a separate shower. The wide plank (pine?) floors are the stuff that Chip and Joanna Gains dream of finding in their Waco renovations. Michelle has loads of coastal magazines, area maps, and menus available if you are a first time visitor. I could keep going, but you get the picture...now, GET A RESERVATION!
