Oakland House Cottages by the Side of the Sea
-
Magic in the coziness of your living room with a real wood burning fireplace. Sophisticated rusticity...on 50 gorgeous coastal acres, just 11 miles from Blue Hill.
Another beautifully appointed cottage with rustic charm and refined comforts....a full kitchen with two bedrooms, full bath, covered porch, DirecTV, and WiFi. In fact, all the cottages have WiFi.
Grindstone Cottage, Distinctive and Authentic log style summer home. Two bedrooms, living room with wood burning fireplace, full kitchen, full bath. This is old Maine at its best. Nestled in the trees yet with a view of the ocean beyond.
Authenticity and good taste. This king sized bed is in one of the bedrooms in Crow's Nest Cottage. Pillowtop, luxury mattress and comfortable furnishings...this is a wonderful place for a family or a group of friends. Living room with wood burning fireplace, full kitchen, covered porch and a grand sweeping view of the Bay beyond.
Westerly Cottage is a favorite among those who want to be right at the beach. It's just 75' from the ocean's edge...two bedrooms and a good sized kitchenette. Wonderful for families especially. Wonderful for lovers...of all things.
The view across the Bay toward the lighthouse and the Camden Hills. This is Herricks Landing on our property. It's on all the maps and was once where the steamboats off-loaded guests from the cities who summered here in the late 1800's.
Fall foliage on the Maine Coast can be extraordinary! This is our view from Lone Pine Cottage in late fall. You can see Pumpkin Island Lighthouse, East Penobscot Bay and the distant Camden Hills dressed in the glow of fall.
Flagstaff Cottage...no cottage like any other. Distinctive and authentic. They are a throw back to yesteryear and one of Maine's cherished destinations. A week-long stay is just what the doctor ordered...also, just what you ordered. A week is the best deal.
We have a wonderful shorefront and the perfect spot for launching a small boat or kayak. If you don't have your own kayak, local companies will deliver one right to our shore specifically for you.

In a setting reminiscent of the casual, relaxed summers of yesteryear are ten distinctive, one-of-a-kind oceanfront vacation cottages. The cottages stretch along the shore of East Penobscot Bay and are located centrally to the Blue Hill Peninsula's activities, restaurants and attractions. On site are acres of woodlands and trails, beaches on lake and ocean, mowed fields, and magnificent overlooks. Cottages are sized for 1 to 6 people. Housekeeping and laying logs in your fireplace is provided on a daily basis. Welcome Breakfast Basket available. In the style of "Old Maine", we've been welcoming guests since 1889.

Innkeepers Description:
I am a designer who married into this innkeeping family. With me came creativity and design talent to bring revitalized life to the existing period cottages. I am keeping our family's innkeeping tradition alive with the help of our children, staff, and friends. They have worked in the business for many years, and while not on site all the time, share an active part in the operations. Our new staff is wonderful too and you will find them most hospitable.
