Benson Cottage
Perched on the shores of Blue Hill Bay is the 1 bedroom / 1 bath Benson Cottage. This beautiful ocean front property has all of the modern conveniences while still having the feel of a simple coastal cottage. Inside the 850+ s/f cottage you will find a spacious living area with wood stove, a gorgeous well appointed kitchen, master bedroom with a king sized bed, full bath and a den with additional sleeping space on the pull out sofa. Sit out on the large deck and watch lobster men haul in their daily catch, soak in the hot tub while watching sail boats race around Long Island, or just enjoy a quiet meal in the screened in gazebo. At night enjoy a fire by the beach in the outdoor fire pit, perfect for cooking lobsters and steamers! Bringing a boat to Maine? We have a deep water mooring available! This is also a perfect location for kayaking or canoeing. The Benson Cottage is a little slice of Maine Heaven, not to be missed!

Beautiful location, quiet, great views…
Cottage was quaint, had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
Hot tub under the stars, delightful.
hubby and I spent our honeymoon here and it was great. cozy home watched seals on the deck. would do it again
We had an infestation of carpenter ants in the home for the entire week we rented the property. We alerted management, and they laid ant traps, but this was problem throughout our stay.
Additionally, the king size mattress isn’t really a mattress, but a series of different sized foam covers. It makes for a very uncomfortable rest. Also, the ceiling in the room with the king size bed is very low, especially towards the head of the bed. Grown men or women will likely have to bend down when walking in the room to avoid hitting their heads.
The photos are very accurate. The location is spectacular. The sunsets were amazing.
It is also not clear that there are additional cottages right next door, and no privacy. there were other guests we didn’t know staying next door at an adjacent cottage the entire time. While they were lovely people, there was NO privacy.
