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. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Golf - Kayak - Tennis - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 3,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Restaurant](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82950000/82945500/82945407/w1025h682x0y1-fd6c661f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spinneys Guesthouse & Beach Cottages Phippsburg - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant - Bar 9.0 Wonderful 69 reviews £119 includes taxes & fees 19 Mar - 20 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-19&endDate=2026-03-20&selected=82945407&PinnedHotelID=82945407&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103770000/103762700/103762659/4ba46cd5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Classic 3 bedroom cape on the stunning coast of Maine, sleeps 8 people Harpswell - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Free Wi-Fi 9.6 Exceptional 35 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-02&endDate=2026-03-03&selected=103762659&PinnedHotelID=103762659&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91830000/91824000/91823998/cc7d4138.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Full sized home Harpswell - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 50 reviews £248 includes taxes & fees 17 Feb - 18 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-17&endDate=2026-02-18&selected=91823998&PinnedHotelID=91823998&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, DVD player](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115560000/115556900/115556886/b71ef319.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Enjoy Stunning Ocean Views & Coastal Access at Sea Mist Overlook!

Our two families of four (4 adults, 4 kids) had plenty of space and were very comfortable. The Big House has everything you need and is spacious, functional, and pleasant. The cliffs, field, and shared dock are magical for spending lots of time outside. We have stayed in three properties in Harpswell and other properties further north in Maine on the coast, and the Big House was the best by a long shot. We loved it and hope to return next year! ##### Alison P.

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.

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. ##### Henry W.

The Big House was everything we pictured Maine to be and more. It’s just beautiful inside and out. The special touches throughout the house were so meaningful due to the family history explained by the owners. It’s wasn’t just a vacation home to us - it was so much more!! 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!!! ##### Maureen M.

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! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy B. 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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! ##### Kathy B.

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! ##### Elizabeth S.

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! . ##### Jill R.

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. ##### Lindsey C.

We loved the house and property. The hosts have clear instructions and labels for everything which make it easy to use. ##### Joan M. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2025 ---
