À propos de cet hébergement

Spectacular Oceanfront Estate with Beautiful Sunsets on 8 acres

The “Big House” is part of an incredible 8-acre private estate with a shared private beach, walking trails, cliff views, a shared deep water dock, and even a freshwater swimming pond. The Big House is a 3,000 sqft fully winterized year-round home built in 1947 by my grandfather. The house features a large living room with an attached porch and an incredible waterfront view. There is a modern kitchen with a breakfast nook, a large dining room, five bedrooms (4 queens, two long singles), two full baths, and one half bath. A section of our deck is screened to escape mosquitoes and provide some shade.

You are only a short walk through open fields to a shared private ocean beach, which is perfect for launching your kayak. From there, you can continue on to a shared private dock that is great for swimming. Our dock is located in the local harbor at Lookout Point and faces west, offering fantastic sunsets and expansive views of the islands. This is an active lobstering harbor, so you can purchase fresh lobsters right next door!

The Big House is on an incredible 8-acre private family estate perched above a lush field and surrounded by 1,500 feet of ocean frontage. You can share this calm, quiet estate with a family-owned cottage and a small year-round home. We face west, so the sunsets are fantastic year-round.

So come swim off our dock, launch your kayak, swim off the rocks, read a book, have a lobster, take walks, or simply relax and enjoy! We look forward to your visit and hope to meet you during your stay.

Magical Place

We spent a weekend at the big house in mid-November celebrating a milestone family birthday. We live not too far away so are familiar with the area...but even so were blown away by this property. The photos don't quite do it justice, if you can believe it- the house itself is so beautiful and well-cared for. It's obvious that people have thought lovingly about each room. The great room is a perfect gathering place with a cozy wood stove, the kitchen has everything in it you'd ever want to actually cook (no cheap, flimsy knives here!), and the mattresses and bedding in each of the bedrooms were to die for. We loved the way the house was set back from the water, with the lawn rolling down to the shore and its little trails along the hill. We had the best weekend and are so grateful to have been able to spend time in that beautiful spot. Can't wait to come back :). This is a perfect house to spend time in in any season- summer would be amazing, but so would a snowstorm!

Harpswell Maine Big House

My family and I rent homes often for 1 week each summer. This house was far and above the nicest. We thoroughly enjoyed the deck, screened in porch and beautiful grounds. There were beautiful places to take small hikes and great places to have lobster or other seafood. We enjoyed Dolphins and the Schoolhouse restaurant. When cooking at home everything was so delightfully organized . . Susan and Ned were so readily available with any questions.

Special Birthday Celebration

We had a memorable week and marked a special birthday at this wonderful spot.The historic house is charming, amenity rich and situated on a beautiful property. We loved the garden, the grounds and the many different sites to explore on site. The kitchen is superbly equipped. We love to cook and found everything you could want - from spices to pots, small appliances, utensils, etc. We stayed in the Big House and had plenty of room for everyone to be together and find a quiet nook to be alone. Susan was very responsive and got right back to us if we asked for advice. During a heat wave Susan offered additional fans as the house doesn't have A/C. We were comfortable. We rented the Big House (BH), which shares a great dock and beach with two other cottages on site. During our stay, another cottage had an even larger number of guests than our group of 6. The only advice to offer is that renters might want to enquire about the size of other parties renting the same week on the property in case sharing beach and dock priviledges is a concern. It worked well for our group as everyone was congenial. We'd love to return to this house and to Harpswell. Having the lobster pound a short walk away made it even more magical!

Family memorial gathering

It was absolutely perfect! The house is simply charming and so well stocked! We were lacking for nothing. The setting is just beyond words.... very special and just has a magical - mystical feeling about it. Sadly we were there less than 48 hours for a family memorial service. It's not often that my mom had all 4 of her children together, as one of my brothers lives in Alaska now. We grew up sailing the Maine coast, and there was something about this house that was just so perfect for us, for this weekend. We met both the owners and they couldn't have been nicer, telling us the history of the property, showing us the art studio and just making us feel so welcome. We would love to come back and stay longer! It's an easy 15 minute drive into Brunswick if you are looking for a bit more action, but you could easily just settle in on the point and happily enjoy the peace and beauty surrounding you.

Winter paradise

This place was perfect for our group of friends celebrating a (significant) birthday. We loved the house--spent mornings in the kitchen, which was beautifully designed and had every amenity you could possibly need. Evenings were spent in the living room, around the wood stove. The bedrooms were large, with very comfortable beds. We loved the property and the beautiful views of the water. All in all, we had a great visit and loved this gorgeous and comfortable spot.

Amazing sunsets!

This is a beautiful house on a huge property looking southeast over Casco Bay. Me and a bunch of friends stayed here for New Year's and had a wonderful time. Lots of nice touches: the kitchen is stocked with every utensil and appliance you could need, there's hundreds of cool books on the shelves in every room, a working wood stove in the living room with tons and tons of wood. The only disappointment was that the hot tub wasn't available during winter. Would definitely recommend this place to friend groups or families looking for an easy stay in a beautiful place.

Perfect for our family

We were in Harpswell for our son’s wedding and the big house was the perfect place for my husband and I along with our other adult children. We were able to spend some quality time together and the location couldn’t have been better. It was only a few miles away from the wedding venue and a short walk from beautiful lookout point.

The home is cozy, comfortable, spotless , and equipped with EVERYTHING!!! The views are breathtaking!!! PLEASE do not hesitate to book this home. The hosts are super sweet and kept us well informed. There is so much to do at the house and in the area. We are already talking about going back. Thank you for sharing this lovely home with us and it was very nice to meet you!!!

Family vacation

We loved everything about this property! The lay out of the house was perfect for our purposes with lots of room for the children to play and space for the adults as well. The kitchen was great to cook in and had everything you need. Even sharp knives! Outside on the deck had stunning views of the water. We spent time at night in the screened porch. One night we took the children to the beach and made a fire while the sun set. The dock we used to swim, have lunch and enjoy the beautiful costal waters. Perfect Maine house and forever memories! .

Family Vacation

The property was everything I hoped for and more! House was clean, organized, plenty of room for all of us, and so historic. Every detail was fascinating! The grounds were wonderful, with access to the water, kayaks, wonderful little trails, and many places to explore. It was an excellent location as well—close to hiking, rocky beaches, quaint villages, and local lobster. For the history lovers in my family, Brunswick and Bath had much to offer. For those of us who loved music and art, Bowdoin was tremendous! This property was outstanding and we look forward to coming back again!

I’m tempted to give ‘The Big House’ a bad review so I’d have less competition when trying to book it again. But I won’t. 5 stars all around. Clean, great shape, beautiful property and the owners were great. Don’t hesitate.

Qui vous reçoit ?

Vous êtes reçu par Susan and Ned Woodman

Image de profil de l’hôte
Susan and Ned took over the management of the Big House a few years ago. We enjoy sprucing it up and making it available for you. Susan has a background in children’s text book publishing. Ned is a “jack of all trades” type and has worked as a high-tech manager and carpenter.

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

My grandfather bought this property, built the Big House, and retired here in 1947. After living all over the Northeast, he landed here and never left the state of Maine again. Once you visit, you’ll understand why. We all thank my grandfather, as four generations have enjoyed being here.

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

This is a truly unique property. Despite having three houses, you'll have more privacy, peace, and quiet than you might imagine. The views, sunsets, and walking paths are spectacular. Every season here is a pleasure.
