About Property

Discover the quintessential coastal escape at Harborside Cottage #1, a charming retreat nestled on the Maine coastline in Bristol. This inviting home overlooks a working fisherman's harbor, offering a front-row seat to the timeless rhythms of maritime life. Whether you are seeking a quiet getaway or a base for coastal exploration, this cottage provides a serene atmosphere where you can truly unwind.

The home is designed for easy, one-floor living, featuring a layout that includes 2 bedrooms, 2 beds, and 1 bathroom, comfortably accommodating up to 4 guests. The interior is anchored by a large living area, which serves as the heart of the home and features a classic stone fireplace to add character to your stay.

While the property is designed for relaxation, it offers thoughtful access to the waterfront. Guests can enjoy the open deck on the back, a perfect vantage point to watch the lobstermen head out with the sunrise and return as the sun sets over the harbor.

Key property features include:

• Oceanfront location
• Shared use of the dock and float (new dock added in 2025)
• Large living area with a stone fireplace (note: fireplace is for aesthetic use only and can no longer be used for fires)
• One-floor living layout
• Outdoor decking

Located in a prime position, the cottage is just a short walk to the center of New Harbor or the desirable Back Cove. For those traveling with larger groups, Harborside Cottage #1 is located near Harborside #2, and both cottages can be rented separately or together to accommodate more guests.

Practical details for your stay include a check-in time of 4:00 PM and a check-out time of 9:00 AM. Dogs are considered with the owners' permission and are subject to an additional $75.00 fee. Please be aware that there is a three-night minimum rental requirement during the off-season. Additionally, the property maintains a strict cancellation policy where no refunds will be issued for any reason.

Experience the authentic beauty of Bristol and the peacefulness of a working harbor from this special coastal sanctuary.
