Long Cove Cottages

Last summer my wife and I stayed at Long Cove Cottages in Tenants Harbor, after visiting on Maine’s Mohegan Island. This area in Mid-Coast Maine is one of the most beautiful in the region…especially as you go further down the peninsulas to the ocean. There are just three mid-sized cottages on the property… so it seems more like staying with friends in the guest house, than the commercial feeling one would get if staying in a small motel “cabin”. Our cottage was nestled in a lovely pine grove and had a view of Long cove and “Southern Island” (Owned by Jamie Wyeth) at the mouth of Tenants Harbor. We were able to keep the cost of our vacation down a bit since these were “housekeeping” cottages with a refrigerator and a dining area as well as pots and pans and plates and dishes----so we “cooked in” for breakfast and lunch. Debbie Johnson, the owner was a wealth of information about what to do and where to go…especially with recommendations of places off the beaten path. We plan visit again next time we are in this part of Maine.
