Enjoy a stay in renowned "Friendship Sloop" builder, Wilbur Morse's, newly renovated 1800's Victorian Harbor House. The exact location where the famous Friendship Sloops were built and launched. Explore the history and charm of this fascinating Victorian home.
This house is hard to compare to others, as it provides a private boat mooring to use during your stay. Along with your own "Private Wharf and "Dock" with continued water access. You have the option to dock your boat at the wharf --or-- on our harbor mooring, completely visible from the home. The wharf and a harbor mooring is quite a special package offer. Secure your boat in Friendship harbor, float a crate of lobsters at the wharf, fish from your private dock, take a guided fishing excursion or a sail, stick your toes in the ocean, jump off the float for a swim, or launch a kayak (provided by owners) to enjoy a paddle. End your day at the firepit overlooking sunsets on the water or on the expansive deck at the house.
All of Maine welcomes you and the sea breeze is luring you to visit. The changing seasons provides each guest visit a chance to experience different views of the ocean to marvel over. FALL: As summer ends and fall begins; you'll find a combination of warm days with cool (easy sleeping) evenings.
The harbor home provides a perfect Maine setting with memorizing views. You can sail on in by your boat or trailer your boat or kayaks to the wharf, fly in by plane at Boston, Portland or Bangor, or travel the path here by car, as the home is accessible by all. Friendship Maine is located in Mid Coast Maine on the Knox - Lincoln County Line. Providing easy traveling access to Camden, Rockland, Union, Waldoboro, Damariscotta, Pemaquid and Boothbay.
The Victorian is located at the very end of Morse Lane and your vacation days will be filled with watching all the boats of Friendship Harbor; beautiful fishing vessels created by the home's current owner, just as Wilbur created the famous Friendship Sloops; all in pursuit of those special Maine lobsters.
Don't miss out trying Maine's sweetest lobster. Fresh lobsters are dropped at the dock; you choose the best time of the day to enjoy these decadent crustaceans. Merely pull up the crate from the water, pick out the one/s that suits you best and savor.
Enjoy a walk around the popular harbor loop or to the local lobster restaurant for a delicious seafood meal topped off with ice cream. And remember the quaint market in town has everything you can imagine and more.
