Outstanding Maine Boathouse, Blue Hill Peninsula, Acadia

Welcome to our unique Boat House at Tapley Farm on the coast of Maine. Consider this a time to renew and restore yourself as you experience this extraordinary natural environment in a truly comforting space along the shores of the Bagaduce River, deep water, in Maine this year. Outstanding views at the end of a dirt road, huge skies and the sounds of loons and seagulls amid the fragrance of salt air await to assure a deep and restful experience.
Dogs allowed, rules apply, never on furniture and $25 per day per dog, two maximum.

Unique and exceptionally beautiful restored historic Boathouse for a romantic getaway or a creative retreat. There is nothing like this in Down East Maine. A very unique property indeed. Blue Hill is our closest town but Brooksville remains the mystery of this region. Fantastic local food and serenity, all near Acadia, and Holbrook Island Sanctuary. One really enters into life as life has been, preserved and charming.
Imagine waking in a historic boathouse surrounded by water with stunning views of Castine, Islesboro and the Camden Hills. Awake to fresh eggs from our local farmers and take a walk up the hill to the main farm and visit the 35 acres of certified organic meadows in permaculture to encourage pollinators, bees and birds, wildlife and health.
Exceptionally charming, rustic and restored Boat House with deep water, sailboats and fishing boats floating by. Across from Castine Harbor and Maine Maritime Academy, races and the training ship in port make for a beautiful and authentic waterfront. Unlike isolated properties, the Boat House is part of the Wasson Tapley Farms, private yet historic family boathouse artifacts fill the cottage and make for a rich and unique experience on the coast.
The views include Castine, the head of Islesboro and the Camden Hills, vast and magical at sunset.
Fully appointed kitchen, dining area, deck, waterfront yard, Queen bed, heat stove, charm and more charm as the remodel kept so many things that were part of this working wharf. Lobster buoys, fishing nets, dress flags, oars, even a small dinghy are still part of the property and so are the histories of the sea captains and their wives who sailed from here when clipper ships were made on the shore.
Glamping in a restored and charming boathouse is a way to restore your life with energy as the water and sky surround the cottage and make nature feel so close.
Naturally, a gas grill is provided, all linens and everything you may need to make this your home for a time.
Come to the "Valley of the Stars" and see why we love it so much.
Acadia, Stonington and the Blue Hill Peninsula await your visits!
