Private Oceanfront Cottage, Private Sand Beach -Lighthouse one mile away
"Aquahela" is a secluded cottage located on the beautiful Pemaquid Point Peninsula. Relax and enjoy a rare opportunity to experience both crashing surf and a white sandy beach just one step from the cottage. If you are looking for privacy, with only sounds of the ocean and seagulls, then look no further! Sorry, no pets allowed Cozy loft with full bed works for child. 5'6" to peak. Relax on the deck overlooking the ocean and several islands as the sailboats drift by. Aquahela Cottage faces west thus affording you the warm afternoon sun and glorious sunsets. Enjoy your dinner watching the sun go down over the landscape of John's Bay. This a a true "Get away from it all' location yet close to all amenities and nearby New Harbor, Damariscotta, Christmas Cove, Boothbay Harbor and many more charming Maine villages. Please note that rental is from Saturday to Saturday. Try to fit in a day visiting the magical Monhegan Island just across Muscongus Bay. Daily ferry service on the Hardy Boat Cruise. The famous Pemaquid Point Lighthouse is a part of our local history, be sure to visit and see one of the most painted and photographed lighthouses in Maine. Fort William Henry and the Colonial Pemaquid State Historic Site are close by for history buffs and for golfers, we have the nine hole Wawenock Golf Club nearby. Enjoy relaxed dining at the many local restaurants that offer the freshest seafood possible. Local lobster pounds minutes from cottage. They will steam for you or bring them back and cook at the cottage. Boating, fishing, kayaking are all available too and we can help with all your reservations and day trips. Come to relax and leave refreshed!

This wonderful little cottage with spectacular water views is so much fun for hanging out and offers a great home base for trails in the area and dining out.
This is the best place we have ever stayed in on the coast of Maine. It was cozy, secluded and had the best view to wake up to every morning. Everything we may have needed was provided. We loved it!
This house was everything we could have asked for. Location is ideal: very private, gorgeous views, but also there's a grocery store 5 minutes away.Everything in the house was high quality: sheets and towels, curtains, dressers, etc. Walking in it felt like everything was very clean and in great shape.We got quick responses from the host when things went wrong, and they were dealt with immediately. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!
The view alone here will cure any problem you have. So relaxing, so peaceful, so quiet.
I like to cook and the kitchen was fine for all my needs. Also, there are restaurants nearby ( driving).
This is the fourth time we have stayed at this cottage. If you are like my husband and me and enjoy the sound of waves, the ocean breezes and peace and quiet, this is the place for you.
It is always immaculate and everything you could ever need is provided. I love to cook and the kitchen is user-friendly and is well-equipped.
If you are looking for a location where the stress of every day life just melts away, this is the place for you!
This is the third year that my husband and I have stayed in this cottage. If you enjoy serenity, this is the place for you. The location and the views could not be better. It is immaculate, warm, cozy and comfortable. Mark is extremely easy to communicate with. We can’t wait to come back next year!
We enjoyed ourselves so much in May we came back for a second stay this year! Wonderful property! Great location on the bay. Close to the lighthouse, restaurants, and market…but quiet and private. Has all the amenities and extras one could need. Owner/host easy to communicate with. The high point of our stay were the three eagles that fished out front almost daily. It was thrilling to see them so close. We will certainly be back!!

Beautiful location, really enjoyed the stay. The stairs are a challenge especially with no landing at the top. Didn't receive any notification about check-in and I got no answer when I called but when I checked the door was unlocked and keys were on the table. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped.
Wow!! This was by far the best first Maine vacation we could have ever asked for. The cottage was absolutely perfect! It had everything we needed for a week away. Our 6-year-old daughter loved the loft bedroom. And we all loved the private beach every morning and every night. Breakfasts on the deck overlooking the water were such a great way to start the day. Thank you for sharing your home with us while we enjoyed a slice of Maine for the week! We really couldn’t have had a better experience!!
The views of the ocean were spectacular. House was very clean. Location was great as well. There was a little work outside next door for 2 days with a tractor/backhoe which drowned out the waves, but not terrible. We were disappointed that there were no binoculars for us to use, like the description and picture showed. Maybe that just needs to be updated on the description. All in all, this is a beautiful property.
This was a fantastic location. The house was clean and well equipped. Sitting on the back deck watching the tides go in and out was so relaxing. Lovely place that i would definitely book agan!
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation at this perfect ocean setting. The house was very comfortable and was well stocked with anything we needed. I would definitely recommend this property.
