Large 1st Fl. Apt. on Coastal Route 1, private deck, 1 hr to Acadia Natl Park!


This spacious, one-bedroom apartment is part of an old sea captain's home built in the mid-1800s and is located on 2 acres right on US 1. It has a private entrance and includes a private deck with table, chairs and grill. The apartment has a living room with flat-screen TV, large bath with tub/shower combination, queen-sized bedroom, and fully-equipped eat-in kitchen with new appliances including microwave and Keurig coffee/tea maker. Bedroom and bath linens are included. Wifi accessible throughout. Private parking at no extra cost.

Our chickens might come around to your patio to visit and you're welcome to come say hello to our friendly goats! Because of our animals, we ask that dogs be leashed at all times when outside the apartment.

Why book with us? Escape to the delightful coastal town of Searsport, Maine, and experience the best of what Midcoast Maine has to offer! Our cozy rental is the perfect home base for your adventures, nestled in the heart of this historic seafaring community.

Searsport is known for its rich maritime history, and you can explore this fascinating past at the Penobscot Marine Museum, which features a collection of historic ships, exhibits, and artifacts. Take a stroll along the waterfront and admire the scenic views of Penobscot Bay, or visit the nearby Moose Point State Park for hiking trails, picnicking, and beach access.

Our rental is just a short drive from the vibrant town of Belfast, where you can browse unique shops, art galleries, and restaurants. Sample fresh, local seafood at one of the many eateries, or attend one of the town's annual festivals, such as the Maine Celtic Celebration or the Belfast Harbor Fest.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers countless opportunities for hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing. Explore the nearby Camden Hills State Park, with its stunning views of the bay and mountains, or take a scenic drive along the coast to discover hidden gems and picturesque villages. Acadia National Park is only an hour's drive; beat the crowds and the prices by staying with us for your Acadia adventure!

After a day of exploration, return to our comfortable rental and relax in the peaceful surroundings.

We are your central location for the best of what Midcoast Maine has to offer!

Great location
We enjoyed our stay at this spacious rental. Rick was an excellent host. We even received eggs from the chickens one evening! The location was perfect for exploring from the mid coast to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. There is a lot to see and there are many trails to walk.

Great location for exploring the coast of Maine
We had a very nice stay in Searsport, ME. The location was perfect for the things we wanted to do, and host Rick provided multiple suggestions--such as where to get the best fresh lobster and well as local museums, restaurants, best coffeehouses, state parks, and a local indoor farmer's market--that really made our stay special. The unit is quite large and the kitchen was well equipped for the light cooking we did. We especially appreciated the nut crackers and piques, which were a big help when we had dinner at Youngs Lobster Pound in Belfast. The only reason we marked the "Overall Rating" as a 4 rather than a 5 is because the building is very old and the ground floor unit has a strong musty smell. Once we were inside for a few minutes, we got used to the odor but it kind of hit us each time we entered the building. Also, we are not large people, but we found the king-sized bed to be very uncomfortable. It either needs more support down the middle or the mattress/box springs need replacing. Finally, our only other nit is that the listing mentions a flat screen TV and while one does exist, it's a Roku TV, not cable or satellite TV. We don't have a Roku account so we don't really know how that service works, but the Olympics were going on during our stay and we were unable to watch much of it. Overall, however, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this Vrbo.

A lovely stay, even when things didn't go as planned
The whole place was clean, airy, and well stocked. I appreciated the little extras like disposable razors (because, of course, I forgot mine) and a wooden shower seat. The outside is beautifully kept with flower boxes, trellis, and potted plants. The night sky is perfect for viewing here, too, because there's no light pollution whatsoever. If you're a night owl like me, though, bring a sleep mask because the bedroom doors are glass and the living room gets a lot of mornjng light. Generally it's a very quiet area so sleeping in is no problem. And therein was my only problem with my stay. A few days in I was woken to powertools being used on the other side of the wall. The host was in the process of adding to the building, which I didn't know about and he wasn't aware would be loud at all. Host was very helpful, though, pausing the work right away, and immediately refunded my stay for the affected days and offered to find me other accommodation. That turned this into just a bump in my vacation. I understand these things happen, but the way he handled it made me happy to stay for the rest of my time and still rave about my time there. Also note that I was traveling with my Shiba Inu and he loved this place! Very peaceful and quiet with lots of trails to walk nearby. This was my first time staying with him away from home and it was the perfect choice.

The unit is in the back of a house off highway 1 a miles south of Sealsport. The driveway is hard to recognize, particuarly at night. There is ample space in the unit including a large kitchen/eat in breakfast room, a living room and a separate bedroom. The bathroom is behind the bedroom and also large. Hot water was available. The bathroom door wouldn't stay closed without a stopper and there were areas in need of cleaning. Overall a comfortable place, but not fancy.

Maine Apartment
Location was great you can go up and down the coast. Getting in and out of the shower is difficult for older people it is very high step possible accident. Wife says it is very musky in the apartment she burnt candles and air fresheners. We liked the deck but had to go buy gas for the grille this didn't seem right to us. We had a great vacation though loved Maine and like I said location was central for going both ways along the coast.

Property was as described. Nicely appointed kitchen. Perfect size for 2. The location was great for seeing some of the central coastal towns and an easy drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. A bit of road noise , but on the outskirts of the city, which was nice. Would definitely stay again. Owners were quick to respond if needed.

Great location, nice accommodations
Very sufficient and comfortable. Wonderful king bed that was very close to ours so that we slept well. Since this is right on Route 1, there was a lot of traffic noise but it was not a show stopper for us. We could not figure out the tv since we do not have cable ourselves. Some instructions would have been useful but again that did not really bother us. Overall, this was an excellent stay and we appreciated staying here.

Nice accommodations
We enjoyed our stay. The property is located on a Main Street, but the traffic did not effect the charm of the cottage. It was true to the description. Two recommendations would be to add screens to the windows, so you can enjoy the lovely Maine air and a dresser in the bedroom for those who stay for any length of time.

Relaxing stay in a well equiped place
We enjoyed our stay overall. The kitchen was well equiped and the place had a nice deck with grill. It is a short 1/2 block walk to a lovely farm stand and a quick drive to numerous state parks with scenic vistas and numerous villages. Our only issue was with the cleanliness of the carpets when we arrived (quite a bit of dog hair from the previous occupant which triggered my wife's asthma), but the owners were able to rectify within 48 hours.

Spacious apartment
The owners are very responsive both while renting the property and responding to any questions while we were there. The apartment is well equipped, especially the kitchen which was most appreciated. Very comfortable bed. It is within easy driving or biking distance of Belfast and not too far from Bar Harbor. We had spent time in Bar Harbor prior to staying in Waldo county and it was nice to escape the other tourist and be able to enjoy mid coast Maine. The lack of natural lighting was missed but the porch is very comfortable.

Felt like home
Our stay at Brenda and Mike’s was absolutely phenomenal. We spent an entire week here and from the first moment we walked in, it felt like home. The place is just minutes away from Belfast, which is right in the middle of Maine coastline, which gives you options to venture out north or south easily .. Cottage has everything you will need for your stay away. It is very quite, exceptionally clean. It also has a patio and a little grill. We loved every minute here and highly recommend it to anyone desiring an escape from a busy city life.
