3 Bedroom House in Wiscasset, Westport Island

Comfortable, quiet, north end of Westport Island near Wiscasset - "The Prettiest Village in Maine". Enjoy the day's first cup of coffee from the raised deck while watching the sun rise over the Sheepscott River. Listen to the whispering pines, lobster boats tending traps and the call of seabirds. Relax on the deck just outside your front door or down by the river on the spacious 10' x 20' float. Enjoy a walk to the nearby lobster coop and carry back dinner. The island has three preserves for hiking and picnicking. You're just a few minutes from coastal Route 1 which makes this home a great spot to launch a day trip from Portland to Camden. Experience the Sheepscot River from the dock (FYI - float sits on the riverbed at each of two daily dead low tides for about 1.5 hours per low tide). The hillside leading to the dock is steep, but steps are broad with a bench on a platform half way up/down. 12 large stone steps lead to the house from the driveway parking area with space for 3 - 4 cars. Settle in and enjoy the amenities: wifi, smart tv, large-capacity washer and dryer, fully-stocked newly remodeled kitchen, linens, hair dryer, iron and board, alarm clock, showers in both bathrooms - one is newly remodeled, dishwasher, microwave and toaster oven, gas grill and coffee maker. The master bedroom has its own patio door that leads out to a secluded, seashore garden with private deck. A spacious loft sleeps two with reading area. Another first-floor bedroom also sleeps two. Enjoy river views while you dine - rain or shine - from the deck or dining room. Keep an eye out for deer, wild turkey, fox, bald and golden eagles, osprey and seals. A juvenile humpback whale was sighted in 2023! Watch the dramatic nine foot tides come and go. Westport Isle of View has much to offer. Come see for yourself. Please note: security cameras are positioned to provide surveillance views of driveway approach and waterside main deck/living room door. These are only activated before guests arrive and after check out.

Summary: We stayed for month in August/September and had a fantastic time, as we did in 2024. The home has a beautiful view overlooking the Sheepscot River. We often bought lobster at Simmons in Damriscotta, cooked them at home, and had lobster rolls out on the deck for dinner. The home and is centrally located to Wiscassett, Boothbay, Newcastle, Damriscotta, Bath, and Brunswick. Freeport, Portland, Rockland, and Cambden are an hour or less away. There are tons of great walking trails around, lighthouses (Owls Head, Booth Bay, Portland Head and many others), activities (Maine Maritime Museum, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, visiting the state capitol) and restaurants (Five Islands Lobster, Wild Oats Cafe and Bakery, Taste of Maine, and many others). Great place to stay for a week or a month. Thanks for everything Tim and Faith. Hope to be back!
