Photos and Description of this Friendship holiday cottage 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 4

This airy and open 1940's cottage sits on 200 ft. of spectacular rocky coastline. The kitchen is separated from the living and dining areas by a large fieldstone fireplace. Two sets of sliding glass doors open onto the deck, where you can breakfast watching one of the busiest lobstering areas on the coast, and enjoy evening sunsets over Muscongus Bay. One bedroom has a double bed, and the second has twin beds. The modern bathroom has a full shower/bath. Pets are negotiable and we limit the number each season; cats are not allowed.

The house is a five minute walk to a sandy beach, which is shallow enough that the water warms nicely for swimming, a rarity along this coast. Hardy swimmers can dive from our rocks (as our dog does!). There is good walking, biking and kayaking in the Martin Point and Friendship area, and you can rent kayaks in Friendship. This cottage is a quiet retreat, but lobsters are five minutes away, restaurants are 20, and Camden/Rockport area attractions are a 30 minute drive.

Just what we needed...and sunsets too

Swifty Junior Vienna, VA
Review Submitted: August 9, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent a lovely week at Westview in Friendship, ME. Lobsters were so cheap, we ate lobster nearly every night. We found Westview well-stocked, clean, and just what we needed. It was just the right size for four adults. We loved the view and enjoyed several wonderful sunsets from the rocks. We did not bring our two dogs for other reasons, but are pleased to know that they might be welcome in the future. We also loved hiking the trails on Martins Point. The moss was particularly vibrant green and especially spongy. Very pretty. The raspberries, beach peas, and blueberries were all ripe, too.

We did kayak to the cottage, but did not attempt to disbark on the steep rocks, though it might be able to be done.

We could hear the neighbors, but trees mostly hid the neighboring houses.

Westview is very cute, in good condition, and is well-stocked with appropriate amenities. It was nice to have tools, extra light bulbs, basic cooking ingredients, linens and towels already there. It was perfect for 4 adults.

Get-a-way

2Sisters Brookline,NH., USA
Review Submitted: July 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
This will be our 6th year at Westview and every year we start looking forward to going back about a week after we get home. We love waking up to the sounds of the lobsterboats checking their traps and watching them while we have our coffee on the deck. The fieldstone fireplace gets used almost every morning and every evening even if only for the ambience. We use this place as a laid back get-a-way and have established a routine of going to the Montstweag flea market, shopping in charming Wiscasset, visiting various antique shops and roaming around Rockland. There are plenty of things to do and great eateries to try. We consider this our knitting vacation and try to get some of that in as there are some great yarn shops around. We also collect sea glass from the nearby beach! So glad to be away from the TV!! Westview is not a fancy place, it's a charming old fashioned Maine cottage. It's clean, bright and airy. Recommended for anyone who likes to experience the sights, sounds and smells of the sea and still be close enough to visit many of the other attractions in the area.

Our Honeymoon Cottage -Westview Friendship ME

Dave and Marion Lebanon, Connecticut, USA
Review Submitted: June 30, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
We were married June 28, 1952 and spent a wonderful two weeks as "Westview" cottage. It wasn't modernized as it is today but the location facing west right on the rockbound cosat of Maine was just perfect.
About 6 years ago we discovered the cottage was available for rent and have been spending a week there every summer since then. It is the perfect place, quiet, and secluded, with all the comforts one needs to make it a just right place.

The cottage is clean and well cared for and I would strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to find a secluded quiet cottage with beautiful sunsets.
It lives up to its name "Westview"!

What sold me on it back in 1952 was the picture taken then from the same place the picture (above) was taken. Actually the area at Martin's Point where the cottage is located is almost the same as it was back in 1952.
We spent August 2-9, 2008 (last year) there and will be there again this August 15-22nd.

If you want the perfect place in non-commercial Maine right on the water with lobster boats within 100 feet of the cottage pulling their traps, this is the place for you.

Best of both worlds!

Abbey&David Brooklyn
Review Submitted: May 24, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
This is a perfect Maine getaway spot. The house is right on the water with spectacular sunsets to dine al fresco. It is very quiet and private while being in close proximity to many touristy Maine towns and restaurants, etc. Also right by the house itself there is are nice nature walks too.

The main bedroom faces the water and sky for star gazing at night and or waking up with the lobster boats (if you like). The linens are quality cozy and the kitchen is well stocked... so is the wood for evenings by the fire. The owners have really thought of everything you could need while you are there and they even allow dogs! What more could you ask for!
