Mudge’s Bluff Waterfront Retreat
Mudge's Bluff is a serene waterfront property in Lubec, the easternmost town in the U.S. Close to downtown, West Quoddy Head State Park, and the Campobello Island bridge, this spacious home features comfy beds, a large kitchen, a front porch and a back patio. Enjoy stunning views, wildlife sightings, and nearby attractions like Quoddy Head Lighthouse and Hamilton Cove. Ideal for nature lovers, Mudge's Bluff offers a peaceful retreat with unforgettable sunsets.
This spacious uncluttered home boasts comfy beds and furniture, a large, well-equipped kitchen with adjoining upper level deck, and the sizeable front porch/mudroom for your gear and outerwear. Guests especially appreciate the windowed walls, large tables that allow for getting together, and a lower level that gives kids a space of their own.
On the first floor, there is a bedroom with a queen-sized bed and 1.5 baths, along with a full kitchen, a kitchen table, a dining table, and a comfortable living room area overlooking the water.
Downstairs, there is another bedroom with a king-sized bed, a large living area with two twin beds and a futon that converts into a third bed, and a full bathroom. The back door on this level opens to a beautiful patio overlooking the water.
Guests have full access to Mudge’s Bluff, including the patio and side deck with water views. Adventurous guests can use the rope handle to access the beach below the property. Please note that the climb is steep and not recommended for children or those with physical limitations.
Check-in and check-out will be done via code, so there will be no physical interaction with guests. However, I am available before and during your stay to answer any questions about the property or the area. Please feel free to reach out!
Favorites in the area include nearby Quoddy Head Lighthouse and park, with well-maintained trails (easternmost point in the US), Hamilton Cove, Campobello Island's Roosevelt Campobello International Park/West Quoddy Light, (remember your passport), Cobscook Shore's Waterfront Parks' Pike Lands Cove and many more. Downeast wildlife abounds!
Watch for eagles, seals in the Narrows, and minke whales. Gulls, ducks, geese, an occasional heron, porcupine, or fox are often sighted right here at the Bluff.
Best of all, tho' is sitting in the cottage with cozy furniture, watching the tides, changing light and incredible sunsets!
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Great place to stay in Lubec
We had a group of 7, 5 sisters and 2 friends. All older adults. Perfect place for us. Right on the waterfront with great views. Plenty of room for relaxing, cooking and sleeping. We would definitely recommend this rental.

Great views, musty and moldy basement
The house was large and spacious and the upstairs was pleasant. However, the lower level of the basement was a different experience. One of the lower bedrooms is actually twin beds in the common living room resulting in a lack of privacy for people sleeping there. The "master" bedroom in the basement had serious mold growth, including black mold, along the baseboards and bottom portions of the drywall. This resulted in a permeating moldy and musty smell throughout the bottom two bedrooms. If this issue were resolved, I would consider staying at the property again. Mia (the host) was occasionally quick to respond.

Family Vacation
The house was clean & homey. There was plenty of space for the whole family with multiple bathrooms/showers. We were close enough to walk to town & enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean from the living room both mornings & evenings.
