Welcome to Sea Mist Overlook – a peaceful Harpswell cottage with stunning ocean views and classic coastal charm!
Located on a quiet lane in the heart of Harpswell, Sea Mist Overlook is a comfortable and inviting three-bedroom cottage with sweeping views of the ocean. Though not directly on the water, the home offers a front-row seat to the tides, passing lobster boats, and seabirds—all best enjoyed from the spacious upper-level deck bathed in sunshine.
Note: Two Cottages Available! This property shares land with another cottage nearby. Each cottage is listed separately, but they can be rented together if both are available for your dates. Ideal for groups or families traveling together, up to 11 people. https://www.airbnb.com/hosting/listings/editor/1415113501490503971/view-your-space

Whether you're enjoying breakfast in the morning sun or dining outdoors in the evening, this spot offers a tranquil space to relax and take in the fresh coastal air. Upstairs, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms—one provides a queen bed, one a double bed, and one with two twin beds—along with a newly updated full bathroom. Another lovely feature on the second floor is another sliding door which leads out to a private upper deck offering serene ocean views—perfect for relaxing with a cup of coffee or enjoying an evening wine, all while soaking in the sights and sounds of coastal Maine. For those looking to explore right from the cottage, it is just a short walk to Stover’s Point Preserve, a local favorite for beachcombing, sunbathing, swimming, and scenic views of the historical Cribstone Bridge.
Guests are welcome to use the shared granite steps nearby that lead to a tidal beach, great for launching your kayaks, or just enjoying the shoreline.
