Secluded Oceanfront Cabin With Private Cove and Beach

The Red Point Cabin, sits on a private 19 acre peninsula (shared with a family cottage) and enjoys its own cove and beach. Most of the property is covered by a conservation easement, which is open to our guests for exploring. Moss covered, secluded woodland paths, and a long private beach with tidal pool for swimming make this property a true Maine gem, removed from the hustle and bustle.

From sunrise to sunset, time stands still on the south facing deck. With sweeping views of Penobscot Bay and nearby islands guests will enjoy watching eagles, ospreys, seals and passing boats.

First floor bedroom with queen bed, second bedroom with two twins (bunk beds), and loft bedroom with queen bed. 1 full bath. Full kitchen with small dining area shared with living area and cozy wood stove for evenings and rainy days (firewood provided). Pillows and blankets, sheets, hand towels and kitchen towels provided; tenants responsible for bringing own bath and swim towels.

30 min. to Blue Hill and 90 min. to Acadia National Park. Other local highlights include The Goodlife Center, TinderHearth Bakery, Four Seasons Farm and The Holbrook Island Sanctuary. Local companies will deliver kayaks and stand up paddle boards.

Fabulous location. Kayaked with Bald Eagles and Osprey overhead!
Very comfy for our small family. The house had everything we needed to cook and the beds were comfy. Good working wood stove and effective electric heater. The beach was great. A wonderful 2 weeks.

Magical coast
This is a really beautiful part of the world. Sunny days are splendid, foggy days are magical as the sea & sky become one. There's so much to explore - nearby islands & coves by water, and moss covered trails through the hills full of surprises. Great bird-watching, and seals too! The cabin is compact, but just perfect for our family of 4. The view from the living room/porch is fantastic, and the wood stove is so cozy on chilly nights. Great shower, too. Kitchen has everything you need, and you can buy lobster fresh off the boat just down the road. Relaxing, beautiful, calm - a perfect change from city life. I'd heartily recommend to all.

Picturesque Maine Property
I wanted to be nestled in the woods along the craggy Maine shoreline with zero distractions.This property gave my family all of that and more. The kids loved exploring the trails, fishing, rock skipping, shelling and bird/boat watching. My husband I could sit on the porch 24/7, but spent each day exploring a different nook and cranny of Maine from Rockland to Acadia. This is the first vacation in forever that time slowed down and we could relax!

Gorgeous views!!
Lovely rustic cabin perched over a harbor with stunning views. Great birdwatching (if that’s your jam). Very quiet and at least 30 minutes from any stores which was fine by us! If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing retreat on the rocky coast, this is a wonderful spot!

Beautiful, Quiet and Cozy
The cabin's setting is quintessential Maine coast. The views from the deck are framed by weather-worn pine trees, and the trails to the beach are carpeted in lush moss and mushrooms. We had nightly shows from the seals, bald eagles, and loons. It is truly beautiful. Everything in the cabin was clean, in good working order, and the kitchen was well equipped. The host was communicative and helpful. If you are looking for peace and quiet in a beautiful setting, this is the place. There are no frills, but that is part of what makes it fun!

Beauty and Wonder
This is a fantastic place to unplug, unwind and get inspired. Wonderful swimming, miles to explore on land and water while walking trails and paddle boarding, beautiful views from many sit spots in and around the cabin, and excellent internet for when you need to explore the World Wide Web. Beds are comfortable, the kitchen is cook ready, and the wood stove is very easy to use to warm up on rainy or chilly days.

One of a kind!
We couldn’t have loved the cabin more! It was exactly what we were wanting on our two-week visit to the area. While being very private with paths through the woods and down to a beach, it was still very accessible to many of the quaint restaurants and sights nearby. The wood stove was perfect for keeping the cabin warm and cozy on cool days.

Overwhelmed by Beauty
My wife and I stayed three weeks at Red Point. From the moment we saw the cabin and stood on the front porch, we were mesmerized by the beauty, silence, and serenity of the expansive view of the bay. The cabin was cozy, clean, and well stocked, including adequate split firewood for the wood stove. We can't wait to return next year.

A quiet getaway for nature lovers. Off, off the beaten path. Paddling, swimming, hiking, and fishing, or just sitting for a spell with a great book. Excellent bakery nearby (breads, pastries, pizza). Weekly farmstands.

Getting Away From It All
This house is perfect for getting away from everyday life. The quiet, private location was great. We spent a lot of time watching the seals hunt out front. A comfier chair or newer cushions for reading would be great, but the cabin had everything we needed for the week.

Red Point is the best point
This was our second visit to Red Point, and the view from the cabin porch is even more stunning than I remembered. The cabin is stocked w just what you need in the kitchen, there are great books and so many opportunities to hike and be in the water. And everything is perfectly maintained. Blue Hill is a short drive, and we loved Bagaduce Lunch and LDI Lobster. We feel truly fortunate that the owners shared their beloved camp with us, and can’t wait to stay again.

Perfect Maine Cabin on the Bay
Thoroughly enjoyed our "get away from it all". Even our 15-year old grandson did not miss television or the internet (worked early in the day but evenings were more hit or miss). The views were stunning and never became old. Especially liked watching the seals and birds (eagle included).

Most beautiful location in Maine
This is the spot to relax and look at the beautiful Maine coast. From the cabins’ large deck, you are steps from the “red” rocks that must have given Red Pt. its name. There are trails through the woods to rocky tide pools and a floating dock. The cabin has everything you need and views from almost every window. We enjoyed the solitude and peace and quiet, but the hosts are responsive if you have a question.

Seclusion by the sparkling sea, is just the way that life should be
This was my first stay in this area of Maine and I was blown away with the beauty and solace it offers. The Red Point cabin property is no exception and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, which was definitely not long enough! September in Maine is my favorite time of year and the weather was perfect. I spent a lot of time just sitting on the deck staring at the islands and the sea and then when I was inside, staring out the picture window at the islands and the sea. What a wonderful place to chillax and be inspired! Having the woodstove to take the chill out in the morning was a nice feature to enjoy. Nothing like having your first cup of coffee at sunrise, standing next to the fire and being mesmerized by the view thru the picture window. The seals and the bald eagles kept me busy trying to take photos, but with no luck. I did get plenty of photos of the views and all the different sail boats that were everywhere enjoying the weather. What a special place. I just wanted to thank the Brainerd family for sharing it with the rest of us! It is truly a little piece of heaven!
