About this property

Pet Friendly Waterfront home- Kayaks, Game Room, Playset, toddler area & office

  • Winter, spring, summer or fall, forget your worries & feel your stress melt away in this charming waterfront home.

    Wake-up to glorious sunrises, relax on one of the many outside seating areas, swim, float, fish, kayak, go boating, whale/bird watching, river rafting, leaf peeping, nap on the hammocks, sun bath, have a beach/pit fire, golf, hike, catch a movie or summer concert, or simply enjoy the incredible water views, and the ever changing (25’) tides from the inside.

    At RiverHouse there is something for everyone-

    Kayaks for adult and youth-picture yourself kayaking down the beautiful St Croix with eagles soaring overhead. You may also take the kayaks to nearby lakes.

    Castle Rainbow Playset for kids.

    Enclosed toddler play area.

    Outdoor games such as Corn Hole, Croquet and Ring Toss.

    Barn: Pac-Man Arcade with 14 games, pool, ping-pong, air hockey and foosball tables, dartboard and pop-a-shot basketball arcade.

    Children's toys, coloring books for adults and children, puzzles, lots of books for all ages, and family game boards.

    Large firepit at water's edge with Adirondack chairs-make s'mores and lasting memories.

    French doors open to gravel patios.

    Several sitting and eating areas, and hammocks throughout the property.

    Dual (gas and pellet) grill.

    Private office shed at the water’s edge with WiFi & monitor.

    RiverHouse is a traditional Maine farmhouse built in 1840. It sits on an acre of land on the St. Croix. It is flanked by coves, and it is landscaped with flower beds, apple, peach & lilac trees. It has been totally renovated while keeping its charm, and has amazing water views from every single room.

    Sunroom (everyone's favorite room) with unobstructed views to Canada.

    Fully stocked kitchen with wall-to-wall windows.

    At night, the property is bathed in fairy lights.

    Driveway is large enough for a boat.

    You can access the beach at either side of the property via lit stairs. There’s a rocky beach with a small over-the-water (high-tide) deck.

    Calais is your quintessential small American town with shops, restaurants and bars dotting Main St. It sits on the St. Croix River with 3 border crossings into Canada. There’s a movie theater, public library, boat launch, golf course, a waterfront walkway, and concerts are held during the summer at the riverfront park.

    The St. Croix is saltwater and tidal, flowing into the Bay of Fundy which has the highest tides, and is full of freshwater and saltwater marine life.

    RiverHouse is just 2 mins from the St Croix Country Golf Club, 5 mins from downtown, hiking trails, boat launch, & the Canadian border, 30 minutes from Eastport, 50 minutes from Lubec and Campobello Island (Roosevelt’s summer home) and 2 hours from Bar Harbor, Bangor and from Aroostook County. it is perfectly located for exploring unspoiled Downeast Maine, ā€œThe Countyā€ and Canada.

    ****A Note About Nature **
    We’re tucked away on the beautiful St. Croix, which means you may see (or hear!) some of the local wildlife. From soaring eagles to Canadian Geese, and from fireflies, spiders, and ladybugs to the occasional mosquito and deer, nature is part of the charm here. While we do our best to keep the house comfortable and pest-free, you may still come across bugs or critters outdoors. And if doors are left open, squirrels may visit, and possibly mice. It’s all part of the St. Croix experience — think of it as sharing your getaway with the locals.
