As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

This time of year we’re loving the craggy coast of Maine. There’s something about the waves crashing and the sea mist rising that makes us feel like Maine is coming alive. Sure, these things happen in the summer. But maybe in the winter, we need it just a little bit more. If you love these views as much as us, you’ll want to check out this totally photo-worthy cottage with views that feel oh-so Maine.

Welcome to your own slice of paradise on the rough, quintessential coast of Maine. East Ledge Cottage in Georgetown is a wonderful little getaway.

The cottage, located between Sheepscot Bay and Gott’s Cove, is also really convenient to Five Islands Wharf where you can dig into lobster at the Five Islands Lobster Co.

The home is so close to the water, that you can sit right AT the water.

A stay here means lots of salty breezes. Especially when you start your mornings with coffee on the main deck off the living room. There's even a large table for outdoor summer meals along with a gas grill.

But somehow, even being inside allows you to feel pretty darn close to the outdoors.

We love that this cottage feels remote, but is actually convenient to a number of things to do. Go hiking at Reid State Park, dig into some fresh lobster in town or do some shopping. Or, of course, you can simply settle in with a good book and remember what Maine life is all about.

East Ledge Cottage can be booked from now through mid-June 2020! It’s possible that additional dates will open up as the summer gets closer. Click here to see the official Airbnb listing. A stay now will cost about $200 per night.

The coast is great, but there are tons of places throughout the state that are worthy of a night’s stay. You might not expect it but these 10 towns in Maine are excellent overnight getaways.
