About this property

Waterfront Cottage in Freeport

Located at the quiet end of Flying Point, this waterfront cottage has beautiful eastern views of Casco Bay and its islands. The oldest part of the house, built as a family summer camp in 1940, still has the charm of a historic Maine home. The house has 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths and sleeps 6. Conveniently located within 2 miles of the LL Bean Paddling Center and Wolfe's Neck Woods State Park. The LL. Bean flagship store and Main Street shopping are only a 10-15 minute scenic drive away. Portland, Brunswick and Bath are 25-35 minutes away.

The house overlooks Pettingill Island and Sow and the Pigs, which are a home to multiple families of ospreys, bald eagles and waterfowl. Head out on a kayak adventure and explore the nearby islands, many of which are uninhabited. Kayaks can be rented in Freeport. The LL Bean Paddling Center offers kayak tours of the bay and camps for kids (arrange in advance). The nearby Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park has a gorgeous rocky coastline with miles of trails. And then there are hundreds of other nearby activities: amazing dining, quaint towns, antique shops, breweries, bakeries, farmers markets, historic lighthouses and forts, shaker settlements, ferries to islands, beaches, foraging classes, tours, etc.

The property is our second home, which we love and use for part of the year. It is constantly maintained and has a well stocked kitchen, supply closet as well as other necessities. The Wifi is excellent: we have no issues with streaming services or data downloads. ATT cell service is weak - making calls over Wifi resolves that issue. Additional information is available on Instagram @houseonflyingpoint.

Check-out is at 11AM and check-in is at 4PM.

Perfect stay in Maine

The house was perfect! Beautiful views, right on the water. Great location, close to Freeport and plenty other Maine towns we could explore. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Communication with host was easy and great. Would stay again if in the area.

Quintessential Maine Getaway

This home is beautifully decorated and in the most peaceful location - we all wished we could move in! The host was quick to respond and great to work with. The binoculars were a delightful added touch to enjoy the wildlife and view! Fabulous stay all around!

Awesome stay in the Freeport area

Excellent location on the water with a nice dock and deck with comfortable chairs that are great for morning coffee. Supremely quiet neighborhood. The master bedroom is huge and has an incredible view over the bay. Irene, our host, was very communicative and clearly focused on ensuring a great experience, including some thoughtful touches like fresh local coffee and a well equipped kitchen. Beds were clean and comfortable. The area is awesome to explore - we highly recommend an LL Bean guided kayak tour.

Absolutely Incredible!

Everything about our stay at the “House on Flying Point” was perfect. If you love coastal Maine, this is the place! The view from the Master Bedroom took my breath away every single time I walked into the room! Location is perfect - away from town but close enough to run out for a coffee & muffin. Everything was clean and organized. The only problem we had was having to leave!!! We’ll be back for sure!
