Luxe Bayfront Cabin w/ Stunning Views & Shared Dock- Ideal for Hunting & Fishing

Eagles View

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Wake up to extraordinary bayfront views at this Bowdoinham cabin, where you'll enjoy a private patio and firepit, nearby access to a shared dock, and a wondrous location for fishing, hunting, and admiring the classic Maine scenery.

This modern, light-filled home sits two lots down from L.L. Bean's original cabin on the shores of Merrymeeting Bay. Here at the confluence of the Abagadasset, Androscoggin, Cathance, Eastern, Kennebec, and Muddy Rivers, you can launch a boat from the dock in Bowdoinham two miles north, visit Bowdoin College with ease seven miles south, or explore the maritime history of Bath 13 miles south.

Step inside to find an open living space adorned with natural wood, casual furnishings, and large picture windows that overlook the bay. Watch the sunrise each morning, use the free WiFi to read the local paper, and prepare a hearty breakfast on the stainless steel appliances in the full kitchen (which includes a dishwasher).

Head outdoors for the day to test your skills at duck and goose hunting, or paddle one of the six rivers in your kayak. Back at the cabin, you can unwind in the central AC, throw the day's clothes in the washer/dryer, and relax with a view of the bay. Sit down for dinner at the outdoor picnic table, and roast marshmallows for dessert around the comfy firepit.

Find the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience at this classic Maine cabin - book your escape to Bowdoinham today!

*If you're vacationing with another family or a bigger group, please note that this home is next door to Eagles View 2, the two homes share a dock, and they can be rented simultaneously.

Honeymoon

This is the 2nd time my wife I stayed here, and the property and location couldn't be more magical! This 2nd time was our official honeymoon trip, and got to watch a pair of bald eagles be at home, right in the cove next to this cabin. Absolutely amazing and will always go back. Thanks again!!

Just Perfect

We loved the modern yet simple design of the cabin but it is the view and bird activity on the river that will have us back. Such a special location!

Winter getaway

Great location. Spectacular views. House is comfortable & well-appointed, though living room furniture is a little worn. Minor issues with the keypad. Took more tries than necessary to get it to work each time. Instructions for TV remotes and fireplace would have been helpful. Again, minor issues. Overall a great cabin.

Wonderful, relaxing cottage

We loved our stay at the cottage. One morning, we saw an eagle swoop down to catch a fish and saw two seals swimming by. The kitchen had everything we needed. The water pressure in the shower was very low, but hopefully that will get fixed soon.

Relaxing time at Eagles View

We had an excellent time relaxing here for 5 days. The view across Merrymeeting Bay is lovely, the cottage is new, clean and comfortable. We experienced a couple of difficulties gas fireplace didn't work, primary lockbox didn't work), but the local property manager was prompt in his efforts to fix those problems.

Nice little cabin

Nice views, lots of wildlife. Overall the place was clean, but they have a major ant problem. Many dead ants inside and still plenty alive. No seating for outside, bring your own.

Beautiful home in Bowdoinham, Me

We loved the cabin. The view is spectacular (we saw 3 bald eagles), the cabin itself is very modern and has very good air conditioning. It was quite warm during our stay, so it was great to have a cool refuge. We loved the proximity to places of interest like Bath, Boothbay Harbor and others. Go to the Sea Dog Brewery in Topsham for some great food, and amazing scenery. One of our favorite meals was at Three Robbers Pub just a few minutes away in Bowdoinham. We had a lovely week at the house and in Maine. Note: the dishwasher is out of service and the grill (charcoal) should be replaced, but these were minor inconveniences for us.

Bay view road, Bowdoinham, ME

Lovely scenery at river front. Quiet. Home access was very difficult with pot holed road and steep entry. Nice kitchen but dishwasher did not work. Fireplace did not work either. Overall, the holiday went well.

Beautiful but clarity needed

Wonderful property on the water. Beautiful views. Private but close enough to essentials and plenty of sight seeing/activities. The canoe on site still has at least one of the same holes mentioned in a review a year ago. Only one person can use it or you will sink. I did not want to be the one. Picture shows boats on dock, but there is nothing on the property you can use. Should be very clear in the listing. I did find a nice, reasonably priced rental facility about 15 minutes away. Seaspray Kayaking and Paddle in Brunswick. We would stay again, but make sure we have a good vehicle to transport kayaks.

Short weekend trip

We rented this property for three nights. We chose it due to the water view and it’s proximity to Augusta as my husband was racing in the 70.3 Ironman. The house was very clean and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the kitchen appliances, pots and pans that we needed. The view was absolutely beautiful and we took full advantage of the fire pit and dock access. The property management team was very thorough and sent updates about early check in being available which was an added bonus. This was our first VRBO rental and they made it very smooth! Our only complaint was the water pressure. It was so bad it made it difficult to shower or do dishes. With that being said I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again for a short stay but would not recommend six people staying here.

Greay view but old and needs updating

Pros- you cannot beat the views of this cabin. It's located near many lakes and rivers. The place was clean and tidy and supplied laundry pods. Cons- very small for our party of 6. Theres a dock but no fishing gear, a kayak but no paddles. The fireplace is broken, the dishwasher was broken, despite being included in the description. I reached out to the property owners day one regaridng broken equipment and they didnt get back to me until after check out. Bottom line- stop at a walmart and get fishing gear, kayak paddles, and i would suggest 4 people or less.

The place is unlike any other. Views change literally every half hour, the colors over the bay, the tides changing, the loons, cormorants, and the bald eagles fishing. And the dawns are heavenly. My favorite place on earth
