About this property

Ashgrove--Farm and Gardens on the Ocean

A delightful location on Penobscot Bay, five-minutes drive from Camden, with its picturesque harbor, full of sailboats from around the world and its own schooner fleet. Trail heads, accessing Camden Hills State Park, are just a few minutes away. Views from the high points in the park are renowned for their extraordinary beauty and expansiveness, inspiring artists and poets for generations.

Surrounded by woods and fields, with a path to our private ocean shore, our deliciously cozy apartment is perfect for couples of all ages. It is situated in five acres of woods with several hundred feet of shoreline and is located about 100 feet from the main house. A footpath leads to the shore with views of the islands and passing sailboats, and where wind and tide bring sometimes subtle, sometimes dramatic changes, from day to day.

Guests may stroll through our organically certified vegetable garden nearby, where vegetables are free for the picking!

The owner is a registered Maine guide and offers hiking and fishing trips in the area.

We Feel Like We WON the Vrbo LOTTERY!!

I’m not even kidding you, the apartment above the garage is lovely, very clean, great kitchen, small bathroom, basically all you need or could want. However, The walk down to the private beach and the private rocky beach itself is breathtaking, completely, and totally worth the price of the admittance. We had a fire on the beach every night and it was amazing. We could not possibly be any happier, hated to leave! Thanks again.

Wonderful retreat, special people and beach

Lucy and John’s apartment has everything you need, and then there’s the beach! What a special place. I got up to watch the sunrise there many mornings. Lucy and John are wonderful hosts, attentive and friendly but respectful of privacy. They provide a great list of insider things to do, too. I’m so glad to have met them. And John even drops off veggies! Lincolnville is a perfect location to explore the mid coast of Maine; even Acadia NP is just a 90 minutes drive, very doable for the day. Easy distance to Camden/Camden Hills, Rockland, Belfast. Lots of hiking, swimming, paddling. Megunticook Lake is a charm. Recommend!

Peaceful Coastal Retreat

A thoughtfully-designed second-floor apartment with woodland path to private pebble beach. Beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture, functional appliances, well-stocked with amenities, games and books, and very conscientious, attentive, and friendly hosts. Especially appreciated thorough written information about the apartment and area, and quick response to any questions that arose.

Fall in New England 2022

We stayed here for 5 nights at the end of an 18 day tour of Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Ashgrove Farm was the perfect ending for us. Our hosts, Lucy and John, were easy to communicate with, and we met them just as we left. Gracious hosts! Their place has easy access to all that the Camden area has to offer and yet the cabin is peaceful and secluded. We enjoyed the private beach, the deck overlooking the woods, it was all great!

New York in Maine

With a combination of woods and ocean, it was the PERFECT getaway for a couple in their 60's. The ocean-view was PERFECT, as were the HOSTS! THE place to detox from the world surrounding us. The carrots and beets were the best we have ever tasted.

Beautiful spot!

We loved staying in Lucy and John’s place. It was so serene, close enough to the water on a great little path and close enough to both Lincolnville Beach and Camden for easy access. The rental was clean and had everything we needed. They were available for what we might need and welcomed us warmly when we arrived. It was a great getaway!

Wonderful vacation in vacationland

The apartment is spacious and open with plenty of counter space and is equipped with everything we needed for our 3 week stay. The deck looks out into the woods and is a perfect place to enjoy breakfast. The path to the water is very well maintained. We were lucky enough to see a double rainbow from the beach and enjoyed views at sunrise and sunset. John and Lucy were great. Would love to return for another extended stay!

Absolutely incredible

From the beautifully cared-for woodsy path to the beach, to the friendly chalk board messages and texts reminding us to try the organic strawberries on the farm and check out the fireflies in the meadow, our stay with John and Lucy was nothing short of amazing. There is a wonderful deck right outside where we shared many meals, read, and did yoga. The kitchen was simple but had everything we needed to cook. If we needed anything, our John and Lucy were quick to provide it. Short walk to a wonderful coffee shop (Green Tree) and artisanal foods cafe / small shop (Dot's). We could easily walk into Lincolnville beach area and have a proper Maine seafood meal by the ocean, then walk home along the rocky beach. Short drives to great hikes (Camden Hills) and swimming spots (Fernald's Neck) in Camden. Thank you, John and Lucy! You were wonderful hosts! We cannot wait to return.

Great Stay in Lincolnville

Lucy and John were terrific host prior to arrival as well as terrific hosts when we finally got there late after a delay caused by Hurricane Dorian. They were understanding about our delay and were just what you would want as property owners. Look forward to coming back to this very thoughtfully outfitted lodging. They have thought of everything necessary to make your stay perfect.

Perfect quiet retreat!

We absolutely loved our stay @ Ashgrove Farm. Everything was clean, organized and relaxing. The walk down the beach path into town is a wonderful way to get there. John and Lucy went above and beyond to make our stay special and we couldn't have asked for any better hosts. There are nearby hiking trails with wonderful views and Camden Harbor is not far away. Plenty to do in this relaxing atmosphere! We can't wait to come for another visit!
