About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Cliffside 2 BD/1 BA home. Quiet sunsets, beach access, and relaxation await you.
Relax, enjoy and create memories at Sunset Haven, a newly-constructed, single floor cottage overlooking Middle Bay in Harpswell. With two bedrooms and one bathroom, the cottage has an open-designed kitchen, dining and living area offering 180 degree views of the bay and the gorgeous evening sunsets. The property has a private staircase to the shoreline where you can set out for walks at low tide. Access to the neighborhood beach, where you can swim or launch your kayak/paddleboard, is only a 3-5 minute walk away.
The space The open-designed “grand viewing room” allows more than ample space to prepare and enjoy meals, play board games, do puzzles, watch TV and relax. The kitchen is fully-equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, electric range, keurig combo drip and pod coffee pot, toaster oven, toaster, electric hand mixer, blender and plenty of dishes, pots, pans, and utensils. And of course a lobster boiler, as well as dishes/utensils to use when enjoying boiled lobsters. The covered deck overlooks the bay and has seating for four. A propane grill sits at the foot of the deck and a firepit is in the yard for evening relaxation and s’mores.
Two bedrooms are in the back half of the cottage, one with a queen bed and one with two twin beds. The bathroom is “split” allowing more than one person’s use at once - one room has a shower and sink and the other has a toilet, sink and washer/dryer.
Summary Sunset Haven has all you need to enjoy the Maine coast. You can begin the day with your coffee on the deck - watching the lobster boats coming in from their morning haul or the various birds fishing for breakfast. Stroll down to the beach and explore the tidal pools and search for sea glass and smooth pebbles. Take in local attractions or bring your kayak down to the beach for launch. Spend the evening watching a different variation of the sunset from the Grand Viewing Room or the deck and then enjoy some s’mores by the firepit.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a travel crib.

We loved our stay at this Harpswell cabin! The highlight is the 180 view of the massive inlet. Sitting out front, it honestly felt like we were on a Norwegian fjord. The sunsets were spectacular every evening, and we found ourselves planning our days around being back in time to watch them.The rooms are on the smaller side, but they're thoughtfully set up with plenty of hooks, so it was easy to stay organized and keep our things off the floor. The internet was also strong enough that I could take work video calls with no buffering. Property management was extremely responsive. Any question we had was answered quickly, which made the whole stay feel effortless.If you're looking for a peaceful Maine getaway with a view you'll never forget, this is the place. We can't wait to come back!
This rental was fantastic! My wife and I were the first renters in the house. Everything was very clean and spotless. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we could possibly need. The house is in a small neighborhood at the end of a dirt road. The neighbors were all quiet, and the few that we spoke to were very nice and even gave us some fishing and kayak spots to go to. There is a small, private rocky beach accessible by a fairly steep set of stairs. We spent a ton of time down on the beach and walking around at low tide. 95% of the time, we were the only ones on the entire beach. The stairs were a bit steep to carry a kayak down, but there is a neighborhood beach access less than a minutes walk from the house, we carried our kayaks down and kayaked around from there, checking out a few of the islands across the bay. We had gorgeous sunsets every night right from the living room or down at the beach. We've rented houses on Harpswell for almost 10 years now, this rental is a hidden gem. We'd highly recommend it and would stay here again.
