Cottage holiday rentals in Belfast

The most beautiful place, exceeding all expectations. The views are spectacular. We breathed in peace and tranquility. A fabulous place to celebrate my 80th birthday with the whole family -- 16 of us. Everyone was comfortable in the space. In addition to being the perfect host, Samantha provided surprise extras which was such fun! Just a few of the highlights: S'mores at the firepit, lobster dinners, seals, bald eagles and fireworks. She made our stay truly memorable. My family gives the place the highest recommendation.

Spent quite a while here for work and saw winter turn to spring. What an amazing place to stay! Right on the water, great views, and it’s so peaceful. Thanks Craig for being so flexible! Everything was up to par and then some. I hope to come back in the summer sometime and enjoy it again!

This house has a beautiful view of the lake!! The complementary water activity’s are worth booking!! We enjoyed our stay and will come back!! Make sure to walk out on the dock at night and look at the stars!!

Our stay at the Great Pond Airbnb was incredible! The house was beautiful, cozy, and fully stocked with all the amenities we needed. We especially loved the paddle boat—it was magical to take it out on the lake early in the morning and watch the sunrise. Truly a dream! Finding the place initially was a bit tricky (we missed some details in the instructions), and cell service in the area is spotty, so definitely screenshot directions beforehand. Once settled, though, it was perfect. Being just over an hour from Acadia National Park was a huge bonus! We had a blast hiking, especially on Precipice Trail (challenging but amazing!) and Beehive Trail for a slightly easier, but still fun option. This spot offered the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a peaceful, nature-filled getaway!

Was a great place for a weekend get together with our family. Right on the water and a great throwback feel but with all the amenities.

Awesome place! Easy to find and awesome location. Shower was hot quickly. Bed was firm (which we love). Would go there again!

Adorable cottage, newly renovated. Perfect for two with an open space loft for one more. Kitchen is well stocked right down to the coffee. A good location if visiting Fort Knox, Mt. Barrie and not too far from Bar Harbor if that is on your list. Great stay, highly recommend. Beautiful view and private.

great stay for a relaxing weekend trip. perfect house for chilling but still drivable to Acadia. well stocked on the essentials, linens, and stunning views! host very responsive as well.

Eric is a super friendly host and he knows the local recommendations. His cabin is easy to check-in, clean and very peaceful. One sidenote is this listing doesn't provide wifi, making it ideal for people looking for an unplugged getaway. We truly enjoyed our time on the beautiful Maine coast!

Absolutely loved our stay here! If you're someone who enjoys being close to nature and traveling with your dog, this place is perfect. The surroundings are peaceful and green. Fabiola was super friendly and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The house rules were clear and straightforward, which made the whole experience stress-free. We felt really welcomed and comfortable the entire time. All in all, a great stay—we’d definitely come back!

Driftwood Cottage has become one of our absolute favorite places to stay/visit. The views. The company. Everything about it is beautiful. Already talking about our next visit.

We had a lovely stay at Jeff's place in Friendship and appreciated all the thoughtful touches there. It was wonderful taking the kayaks out to explore the surrounding islands. I would also recommend the lobster rolls nearby at the Jameson Point restaurant.

I had a wonderful stay here! The inside is clean and cozy! Plus we enjoyed being able to cook over the fire and hang out by the lake. The location is private and peaceful. 35 minutes to the entrance of Acadia but depending on what part of the park you are headed to it can be up to an hour drive. I would stay again!

We had an amazing stay at Jason’s place despite a (mostly) rainy Memorial Day weekend! We still found plenty to do including inside the Airbnb, outside at the pond, and locally at all of the great restaurants/breweries/nature around. We also made it out to Acadia two of our days. I will say, the trip took longer than advertised (about an hour to get to the edge of the park), but was a pleasant enough ride. We also had our two dogs staying with us and we all felt right at home! Jason was a very responsive and helpful host as well - you can’t go wrong with this peaceful retreat on the pond!

Great stay at Ann’s cozy cottage. It was the perfect way to end our trip in the most restful way.

Such an absolutely magical place to stay! My pup and I stayed for a month while I worked and played. Gorgeous views of the Beech Hill Pond and close enough to various towns for hiking, sightseeing and enjoying local food. Spent time on Deer Isle, MDI at Bar Harbour & Acadia, and even made the trek to Lubec. if you want to experience a wee bit of winter and early spring, mid to late March into April was the perfect time. We had a few inches of snow fall within the first few days of the trip. Don't hesitate to book this cottage!

This cottage was just what we were looking for as a weekend getaway! It was the perfect size ( there were four of us) with two bedrooms, a full bath, combo living room/dining area, kitchen, and the best part was a screened-in porch where we sipped our morning coffee and tea. The cottage was fully equipped with bedding, towels, soaps, wi-fi, dishes, plenty of pots and pans, and outdoor chairs. There were even toothbrushes in case you forgot yours! The cottage is not right on the beach, but a short path by the cabin takes you to a lovely little beach on Penobscot Bay where you can walk for miles, bring a towel or chair to sit and read, or take a dip in the ocean. And finally our contact, Daniel, was the best. He checked in on us and made sure we had everything and let us know to contact him anytime. We loved it so much we plan to go again in the fall!

Man-oh-man. This place is an absolute gem! We loved how very “Maine” it felt. The views were breathtaking, the house was comfortable and tidy, and Suzanne’s binder of recommendations and house instructions was very helpful. Walking Clark Island was so fun. We loved Camden and hiked Mt. Battie. Even took a day trip to Bar Harbor and biked around Acadia. If you want to kayak at Suzanne’s place, call Dan over at Ducktrap Kayak. He’s a very nice guy and the property is perfect for getting out on the water. All in all, it was a lovely trip and we would choose this stay again!

Beautiful home! Bed was great! Other things we loved were: having a well stocked kitchen (and coffee), and a washer/dryer. We did struggle to sleep the 1st night with the road noise, but we got ear plugs for the 2nd night and had no issue. Also, the sun does come in early, it would be nice to have an option of blackout curtains. Overall, a beautiful place and we would definitely stay again!

The house looked cute on line but absolutely blew us away in person. The grounds are so pretty and peaceful and the house has everything you could want in a rural home away from home. Beautiful porches, lovely pathway to the water, many places to relax and explore nature. Beach access. Decorated so nicely and Lyndsay is so friendly and warm. Wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend!

Brynna was a great host and was very responsive to any questions or needs. The house was very comfortable, clean, and a very cute cottage. It was in a small village that was quiet and yet the very friendly. You were within few miles of bigger towns, but were able to return to the cottage and enjoy the Shoreline as well as walk in very pretty settings. I definitely recommend this as a vacation site.

(Written by Keith’s wife 🤣) : I am going to miss the conversation with Linsay! There became a point where I almost felt lost if I didn’t talk to her at least once a day! Lol 😂 We were supposed to return on 3/9, and Linsay had blocked time off for us, but plans changed and she was SO understanding!! Love her to pieces! ❤️ We will DEFINITELY be coming back just to visit - in warmer weather of course! Maine can keep their winters! 😂

You cannot beat this location!! With the beach directly across the street, two great restaurants within a few steps, and only 10 minutes drive into Camden, this is the perfect vacation destination! We could not have asked for a better place to relax and have some fun adventures in Camden Hills and Islesboro. The house was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities we could have wanted. We ended up eating out for almost every meal (so many great restaurants in the area!), but the kitchen was very well stocked to make meals in. Brendon and Krista were very quick and proactive with communication and sending check-in instructions. Thanks for such a great stay!!

Amazing and beautiful location! Super quiet at night and only a few cars driving by during the day. Cheryl was super communicative and had stocked the house with everything I could possibly need- gear for any kind of excursion, plenty of cookware, extra linens, even toothbrushes in case you forget. Perfect as a home base for exploring the area or for a quiet retreat. Also has an amazing, spacious kitchen, so great if you like to cook!
