Description of the Jonesport vacation home rental

A little slice of old America. This is a historic, very well cared for and fully restored bungalow, one block from the ocean. Jonesport is a working fishing village on the northern coast of Downeast Maine. The home features original birch wood floors, artistic pressed tin walls and ceilings. Only three families including the current owner took residence here since the Oppenshaw family built it in the late 1800's. Renovations took place in the 1990 to update electric, plumbing, windows, cedar shingles, roof, septic system, furnace, and new mudroom with storage. Restored to its original character and charm, the 1100 square foot living space includes two bedrooms, full basement with a washer and dryer, large open kitchen, living room and a bathroom with a claw-foot tub, enclosed shower and marble sink. The bungalow sits on a maintained 1/3-acre lawn with perennial garden.
Experience true New England charm in Downeast Maine this summer!
(House is equipped with Satelite TV and wifi internet)

Area Information

Vast hiking areas, blueberry fields, white sandy beach and great downeast scenery. A quiet place of inspiration perfect for a retreat from the daily grind. This location is noted for journaling and artistic reflection, as many have used the undeveloped natural backdrop as a springboard for painting and book writing.

Lobster city, Jonesport, Maine

August 11, 2012

We spent a week in the wonderful Jonesport, Maine. The house is old but warm and cozy and you feel like home. There are lots of places to go around. I highly recommend this place if you like fishing and hiking.

wonderful getaway

September 2, 2011

We had a lovely stay at this great cabin. It's spacious (for a cabin) and bright, with great light in the bedroom. Jonesport is really tiny; the one restaurant that was there is closed. You can get pizza, but we'd recommend calling the local lobsterman (number in the cabin things-to-do binder) for fresh seafood delivered to the door. He's also just a really fun guy to chat with. Be prepared to do some driving if you don't just intend to lounge around the cabin. We loved Eastport, Lubec, and Campobello. Also, Machias, about 1/2 hr. away, is the closest town. We found books at Obadiah's Cafe and happened to be in the area for the Machias Blueberry Fest. We went to the Black Fly Ball--a quirky little dance with good music and dancing on a stage over the river under the stars--a great night. We'd come back again!

COMFY

August 12, 2010

We had a very nice vacation using this small fishing hamlet as our home base. The views from the piers were moving. The house itself was homey. The best thing had to be the lobster delivery by a wonderful local fisherman! The cottage was nicely tucked away and after a day of sightseeing it was lovely to come home to live, fresh caught lobster! The cottage was equipped with everything needed to have a romantic down east dinner, complete with lobster pot. If you like to get away but be comfortable and pampered, this is the place!

Just what we needed!

August 24, 2009

This is a beautifully renovated, clean and simple vacation home, away from it all. If you want to visit one of the last unspoiled coastlines in the US, this is a great place to go. The owner has taken great pride in his home and you will be comfortable, warm and relaxed. We were thrilled to hear no phones ringing, have no cable TV (just DVD's) and to live the simple life for a week - we didn't want to leave! Thanks for a great vacation.

Guestbook

Our visit to Jonesport went well. Everything was great and above our expectations. The house was clean and very well maintained. The area offered friendly people, exceptional peace and outstanding scenery. We captured many great photos throughout our trip. The Great Waas Island hike is also a great experience, we did the full 5 mile loop which went along the coast.

It was hard to leave Jonesport on Saturday morning. We had a good time. The weather was exceptional. The house was very nice. It suited our needs perfectly. We had family visit for one night from Aroostook County , and they had a blast. Location is excellent for day trips to Lubec and Acadia .
We had a bit of initial trouble getting enough hot water. The knob on the heater in the basement was turned to one initially; all was remedied when I turned it up to three or four. We turned it down again when we left. We added some more brochures etc. to the binder on the table.
The house was in very good condition. Everyone who entered commented on the pressed tin work. Very nice. I would love to pick that house up and plop it in Houston .
Nothing was really lacking for our stay. If ever we head up that way again, I would certainly enjoy staying there again. Thanks for your efforts.
