Cottage in Pownal

Upscale Timber-Frame Cottage, Shop/Dine/Hike/Bike

Relax and unwind at this cozy post-and-beam cottage in a woodsy setting. Complete with all the modern amenities you will feel at home after exploring all that Maine has to offer. At day’s end ascend to the loft bedroom for a great night's sleep. Please note the current Maine travel restrictions: https://www.maine.gov/covid19 This custom post and beam cottage is brand new. Designed by John Libby, one of the most respected timber frame builders in New England, (www.housesandbarns.com) this space was thoughtfully designed and meticulously built specifically for your enjoyment. This cottage resides on the owner’s property, but is sited on its own two acres nestled among a beautiful stretch of Maine hardwood forest. Accessible via its own private driveway and surrounded by acres of pristine forest, it is the perfect place to relax among nature. No matter the season the exposed weathered Douglas Fir beams of the building will both welcome you and wrap you in a feeling of comfort and contentment. This complete home has all of the amenities. The kitchen includes natural unpolished granite countertops and brand new appliances including a stainless steel gas oven/range, dishwasher and refrigerator. The whitewashed walls of the hallway and bathroom provide a more modern feel, while showcasing all the wonderful knots of the Maine white pine from which it was milled. An easy-to-access, low/no step corner shower complete with floor to ceiling tile and an oversized vanity make time in the bathroom a pleasure. The open concept makes for a natural flow through the space and the sitting area comes complete with a queen sofa bed, TV and a gas fired wood-stove. The vaulted ceilings rise 22’ above the floor providing a spacious and beautiful feel. Radiant heat in the finished concrete floors make the space cozy and keep your feet warm. Oversized and lit stairs lead to the loft where you’ll find a king sized bed providing the opportunity for a great night’s sleep. Large windows make you feel as though your sleeping in the tree tops…come Fall this Oak and Maple forest comes alive with color. A ceiling fan keeps you cool, in the Summer and moves the heat around come Winter. Enjoy the beautiful outdoors on either the front or back deck, or from your own personal fire pit complete with granite bench. Don’t forget the s’mores! Guests have access to the post and beam cottage as well as the immediate surrounding area. We ask that the property boundaries are respected and that the guests do not go past the rock wall or onto the main house property or neighboring properties/horse farm. The post and beam cottage is on the same property as our primary residence but has it’s own driveway and is situated in a private clearing surrounded by beautiful forest. We will usually be available to welcome you personally and are happy to meet new people and make new friends but we also respect our guests privacy as we expect the same in return. Thank you! This post and beam cottage is in the small town of Pownal, 20 minutes from the wonderful restaurants, sights, and sounds of Portland. It's a 10-minute drive to Freeport and the L.L.Bean flagship store. Bradbury Mountain State Park is two miles away.

Charming Victorian Getaway With Private Patio

LorieRating, 5 stars2 days ago

We immediately felt right at home. This apartment was the perfect stay for our time exploring the Portland and South Portland area. Colleen was a fantastic host! She made sure we had everything needed and more. The entire home was spotless and the beds were extremely comfortable. The next time I’m in this area I will definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Modern Cottage with Peeks of Ocean Views

AnnRating, 5 stars70 months ago

What a fantastic place! Great amenities for a luxurious stay at the house, all the tools you may need if you wanted to cook at home, and so conveniently located to Old Port if you want some great food and drinks in the city. We stayed for 3 nights with another couple. We spent time in Old port visiting restaurants and a few breweries/distilleries and ended the nights by the firepit in the back yard. Took a nice walk. We also made a nice dinner after grabbing some great produce at the Protland Farmaers market. Wish we had more time!

Yurt in South Portland

Yurtvana

DanielRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Yurtvana was such a treat, super well done space, super cozy inside and her backyard is beautiful, and the hot tub was nice (be aware it is not private, but that didn't bother us at all). It was a little chilly inside the yurt despite the heater but it was chilly rainy night outside, so just make sure you bring cozy clothes in case it gets cool

Relaxing Retreat|6 Miles- Beach|9 Miles- Portland

HunterRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Great place to stay, close to Portland & the beach plus good access to 295 if you’re headed north to Acadia or the coastal towns. The bed is comfy and the house doesn’t feel like a tiny home with the space being utilized the way it is. Highly recommend staying with Eric!

North Coast Retreat | New Luxury Near Beaches

ShanroyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Leading up to my stay we started communicating to know everything I need to know for check in. Cindi was very flexible with the check in seeing I was on my motorcycle on a road trip and needed to get out the cold 🥶. Went inside and wow took my breath away. The home was perfectly laid out everything was there you needed. I would literally stay there forever lol. Very clean comfortable and just homey. I highly recommend this host and property 5 star rating all the way. Thank you Cindi for allowing us to stay in your home.

The Dream Cottage

KevinRating, 5 stars8 months ago

Beautiful little beach bungalow. Nothing fancy, just an old-school (i.e., 1950s - 1980's) wood-paneled beach cabin with a nice sunroom overlooking Higgins Bay. Very quiet, very peaceful, and just a beautiful area. Just 15-20 minutes from downtown Portland, I'd do this every time rather than stay in Portland proper. Best of both worlds. Highly recommend.
