Travel Channel Just Filmed Here! Private Beach, Beautiful Cottage, Maine Heaven!

RECENT LOCATION OF TRAVEL CHANNEL FILMING! That's right, out of the blue we were contacted by the travel channel who loved the property and chose to film some footage here!

Watch the sun set over the water as you sit on the back deck of this beautiful, recently renovated home. A large sunny lawn slopes down to a private beach: kayak in the cove straight from your own beach, or just sit on the porch or by the fire pit enjoying the view. (We have two adult kayaks and two children's kayaks for your use). This clean, sunny cottage sleeps 8 in beds, one adult or two children in the fun, super comfy CorduRoy Nest chair that pulls out to a bed (located in the livingroom), 4 bedrooms including a brand new master suite upstairs with a master bedroom with big window overlooking the water, adjoining sitting room and full bathroom - a perfect quiet getaway for parents! Also a beautiful living room, sunny clean updated kitchen, fire pit, back deck with gas grill and a Clubhouse - an outbuilding next to the main house - with sofa, ping pong table, cornhole, darts mini fridge and games. Great hangout for the kids! (Clubhouse is not heated so just beware that in winter it'll be freezing in there.) Washer dryer in basement. High chair and pack n play in the house too. WiFi and smart TV. Beach Lane Cottage is located just minutes from the historic and picturesque village of Castine. Also a short drive to Blue Hill, and just an hour from the stunning Acadia National Park and the village of Bar Harbor. Maine Maritime Academy is also just minutes away, in Castine. Enjoy wireless internet, and a firestick through which you can watch a huge selection of channels like Amazon Prime, Hulu, CNN, Sports channels and more. This house has both heat and AC. Enjoy the magic of Maine from this stunning beach front location and comfortable, beautiful home.

From our reviews:
"Perfect Maine retreat by the sea!
Absolutely wonderful Maine rental with everything we could have ever wanted including private beach access at the end of the lawn, kayaks for our use and a fire pit ready to go. Property was very clean upon arrival. Bright and cheerful Interiors with view of the sea from kitchen and back deck was a great place to watch the sunset."

"Perfect Place for a weekend getaway
I hosted a relaxing bachelorette getaway here for my cousin and her bridal party, and it could not have been more perfect. Combed the beach for sea glass, had a cozy fire, watched the sun rise and set over meals we cooked in the well equipped kitchen. Truly a blissful weekend. We all want to go back! Thanks for the memories 💜"

"A gorgeous spot!
Our family time here was so special. We took full advantage of the absolute coziness of the cottage and games in the clubhouse and campfires at gorgeous sunset but the bay at our backdoor was above and beyond our expectations - loon calls, eagles, gulls, tide pools full of hermit crabs and periwinkles and mussels, driftwood, sea glass, Fort Point light! Fabulous! Acadia is just an hour away and there are many beautiful spots to explore around Penobscot Bay! We were very sad to leave and hope to return! Thank you for such a safe retreat!"

Lovely, Quiet Ocean Home
The cottage is nicely maintained with everything four sisters and one brother over 60 needed or wanted. Plenty of towels, wi-fi, a deck to watch spectacular sunsets. If you have kids this place is good. A rocky beach was nice to walk on. Spectacular sunsets. My only caveat is that other than a few homes there is not much in a walkable distance.

Our son is a student at MMA and this house was the perfect location for visiting. Cozy house, comfy beds… the swing was super fun and we had a good time exploring at low tide. Thank you!

Sister time in Maine
The house was just as advertised, clean and ready for us. We used it as a base camp for touring around the area, and enjoyed the amenities the home provided. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. I wish the weather had cooperated but you can’t have everything!

A lovely stay
I had a very relaxing vacation in this clean and comfortable home in a beautiful location. My family very much enjoyed the swing, kayaks, and ease of access to the water. I only wish I'd known about the Blue Hill Co-op sooner. I found it on the final day of our trip, and it is terrific.

Enjoyed our stay
Our family (2 adults and 5 children) enjoyed our stay at the Beachlane Cottage. It has access to Penobscot Bay via a short path behind the house where there’s a rocky beach area (with some sandy areas during low tide). The cottage is a short drive to the village of Castine and a good launching point to other spots of interest (e.g., Acadia and Deer Isle). The house was spotless and very well stocked with everything we needed. The owners Heather and Dave were very responsive whenever we reached out to them. The only reason I didn’t give it a 5-star rating is because the house is situated pretty close to a road where the speed limit is 45 MPH, so there was some noise from that (but traffic wasn’t usually too heavy).
