Lubec Bay Cottage - Create Lasting Memories (#40338)

Lubec, Maine
 

Description of the Lubec vacation cottage rental

Oceanside convenience, comfort and charm! From your door, a private boardwalk meanders through 3 acres of lush meadows to your own sitting area with 180-degree ocean views, birding opportunities in the marshes of the Sand Bar Wildlife Management Area that borders the property, and kayak access to the bay. Sandy beaches are a short stroll down the Bar Road; hiking trails and picnic areas at the West Quoddy Head Lighthouse and State Park are just down the road. Downtown Lubec with its shops and restaurants is less than three miles away. At Lubec Bay Cottage, each floor has spectacular ocean views and with 1920's charm it has all the comforts of home. There is a large deck for outdoor dining or star-gazing with a separate area for gathering around the warm hearth on a cool evening. The two bedrooms are cozy and inviting. The two full bathrooms and washer and dryer are so convenient. A private artist's studio is on the property for those who wish to capture the area on canvas.

Area Description

Lubec and surrounding areas attract bird-watchers, hikers, whale-watchers, kayakers, and beachcombers because of the opportunities that abound. Whales can sometimes be sighted off West Quoddy just down the road or off East Quoddy on Campobello Island. In downtown Lubec, seals are often seen feeding in Lubec Channel, and there are bicycle rentals, whale watching charters, and a water taxi between Lubec and Eastport. The nearby state parks, lighthouses and nature preserves offer hiking trails, spectacular views, and bird-watching opportunities. Artists, writers and photographers are inspired by Lubec's vast coastline, unspoiled natural beauty, and by the picturesqueness of downtown Lubec. There are numerous local artists and art galleries in the area. The Lubec Historical Society, McCurdy's Smokehouse and Roosevelt International Park showcase local history. The Sand Bar Wildlife Management Area that is adjacent to the property is known for its migrating birds.

 Outstanding!!, October 5, 2009

The pictures on the web site really didn't tell all the story. The views from the cottage were fantastic. The cottage itself, was very nice. We had a wonderful time and would go back to Lubec cottage.
 
 We Could Live Here - May thru Sept., September 27, 2009
By Tom Schuyler (Easton, PA)
We spent two wonderful weeks at the Lubec Bay Cottage. I'm writing this email from our"vacation" home in the Endless Mountains of PA. We're on our way home to Easton, PA. My wife just said to me that "looking our over our lake doesn't quite have the same effect as the Sunrise over Campobello Island. The cottage is so warm and cozy. The people in and around Lubec are just really nice. We had a great time. And to my amazement, I ran into a work colleague who now lives in Lubec that I hadn't seen in at least 8 years. He recognized me one day while I was at Cohill's. Again, it was just a wonderful time.
Owner Supplied Testimonials
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of honeymooning at this beautiful property. We cannot recommend it highly enough! The house was beautiful, the views were breath-taking, and the area is the perfect combination of a quiet rural setting and plenty to keep you entertained with Campobello to tour, West Quoddy Head State Park for hiking amidst gorgeous scenery, and miles of beaches nearby for beachcombing.
If you're looking for a peaceful and beautiful location, I would highly recommend emailing Karen. She was extremely helpful and easy to work with. Altogether, this was by far the best vacation I've ever had. (Honeymooners from Pennsylvania)
We had a lovely getaway to the Lubec Bay Cottage this week & would certainly recommend it to a friend! The cottage itself is soooooo charming with gorgeous views out every window & it's well equipped with all of the essentials ... we felt very at home in this comfy space. And Lubec is simply a beautiful place! We relaxed, enjoyed the views, explored neighboring towns, walked some spectacular trails at Quoddy Head & Hamilton Cove, read books, visited the Lubec Library for wireless internet access, rented movies from the Quik Stop, savored Monica's Chocolates & I painted too! What a treat it was to have the art studio to keep my art supplies in along with my wet paintings & to paint in too! Thank you for a peaceful, inspiring & memorable getaway! :-) (Daily Painter, Portland, Maine)
'We had a wonderful time in Lubec and hope we can make it back when it's a little warmer!' (NYC and DC guests who celebrated their 2009 New Year's celebration in Lubec)
