Charming Cottage a Stroll to Camden Harbor-NOW accepting 2026 bookings!

(NOTE: RENTALS START ON SATURDAY unless otherwise confirmed with owner.) Situated on a quiet, residential street this adorably updated, circa 1900 farmhouse is just a FIVE MINUTE WALK TO DOWNTOWN CAMDEN and its picturesque harbor. Bright and cheery, the two bedroom home offers comfortable furnishings and everything you need in your 'home-away-from-home' including a deck and private brick patio for outdoor dining and relaxing. The interior features restored wide plank pine floors upstairs and an ANTIQUE CLAW TUB, as well as a NEW shower, in the second floor bathroom. SIMMONS BEAUTY REST PLUSH MATTRESS SET in Master Bedroom. Downstairs there is a well stocked full kitchen with CORIAN countertops, separate sunny eating area seating six, a spacious family room and separate living/TV room with 32' FLAT SCREEN SMART TV which can be closed off via french doors from the rest of the house. We offer Direct TV stream (entertainment package), NETFLIX and Amazon Prime TV.

Camden is a lovely coastal town offering something for everyone. Enjoy views of MOUNT BATTIE from the front stoop or take a 30 minute moderate hike to the summit from the TRAIL HEAD at the AT THE TOP OF THE STREET. Those less adventuresome can drive to the top via the Mount Battie State Park entrance. Either way the reward is a marvelous view of the harbor, bay, and outlying islands. Bald Rock Trail in Camden Hills State Park was listed as one of the world's most scenic walks (Departures, Adam H Graham, Mar/Apr 2012)

If you would rather not cook your own lobsters in our convenient outdoor propane lobster and shellfish pot, take a walk to the wharf for a lobster feast at Peter Ott's on the harbor, enjoy a harbor view from The VIEW rooftop bar at 16 Bay View hotel, wonderful dining in town at FRESH & CO., and award winning LONG GRAIN (reservations recommended) among others. Or you can chose to hang out with the locals at Cuzzy's and enjoy a Maine micro-brew beer and play some pool. You may also want to reserve a spot on one of the various wooden sailing schooners for a tour of Penobscot Bay or learn to kayak with Maine Sports Kayak Tours. Town events include the Camden Food and Wine Festival in June, Country Roads Artist & Artisans Tour in September and Lobster Festival in nearby Rockand In July. Camden also offers a wide variety of restaurants, gourmet food and wine purveyors and unique shops where you can find upscale clothing, local pottery/art, antiques,
and more.

WONDERFULLY LOCATED IN MIDCOAST MAINE, Camden is a great stepping stone from which to discover the pleasures of the seacoast as well as an array of exciting day trips to the north and south. Rivers and lakes abound for fishing and nearby towns and cities provide history and cultural amenities. You may want to experience the ANNUAL MAINE LOBSTER FESTIVAL IN ROCKLAND every August(20 minute drive), Arts in the Park in Belfast (18 mi.), and the Union State Fair and Maine Wild Blueberry Festival in Union (13 mi.). This is a real Maine agricultural fair and one of the oldest fairs in Maine.

We loved staying at Wicker Cottage! It was very well equipped, including cooking spices, shampoo and body wash, dish soap, etc. The layout of the cottage was great, enough comfortable places to sit for 4 people. It was beautifully decorated and the gardens were lovely. We loved sitting in the outdoor areas after dinner. The host checked on us to make sure we were settled in and comfortable via the website.

Adorable home in a great location. Very well stocked (above and beyond with little treats like homemade soaps). We would absolutely recommend. The only caveat is make sure you are comfortable with stairs. They are unusually steep in this old home.

Quintessential Camden Cottage

Wicker Cottage is a beautifully kept, well appointed, charming, and cheerful house within easy walking of Camden Harbor, shops and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet, with many lovely homes and gardens to stroll by and admire. It's a cheery place to relax and just breath-in the "Down East Maine" experience.

A Gem in Camden

Following our GPS, we drove through the picturesque town of Camden, where the streets buzzed with life and the harbor was filled with magnificent sailing vessels. Our approach to Wicker Cottage was filled with joyous anticipation, and it did not disappoint. The cottage is beautiful, artistically decorated, and a delight to stay in. Every detail was crafted with loving attention. Michelle was wonderful, offering excellent advice about local attractions, restaurants, and shopping. The gardens are lush, with plenty of sunny nooks perfect for reading or enjoying a coffee. If we could give a 6-star rating, we would. We will be back next year and plan to stay longer than our six days of bliss. Sean & Suzanne

Very Pleasant Stay in Camden

Everything in Camden was walkable from the house so we didn't have to use the car much at all. It got pretty hot some days so we walked to Laite Beach to swim, surprisingly uncrowded beach. Lots of good food options in town. The hike up Mt. Battie was quite punishing for a couple of 60+ people but we recovered with some ice cream at River Ducks. Overall a great week at Wicker House.

This was our 3rd stay in Camden at Wicker Cottage and, once again, it was lovely. The cottage is charming, well appointed, immaculate and perfectly positioned for easy walks down to Camden Harbor or for scenic drives along the Maine coast. As always, our host was most attentive and gracious. We'll be back in 2025!

Wicker Cottage a Winner

Our visit to Camden was truly enhanced by our stay at Wicker. The Cottage was attractive, very clean and well outfitted, especially the kitchen. There were numerous places to relax, both inside and outside the house. The neighborhood was a ten minute walk from the downtown area with its numerous restaurants. And we had excellent communication with the owner. In all, a first rate VRBO experience.

Lovely Charming cottage

We had a lovely time staying in this charming house on a quiet street, which is just so nice that it is walking distance right into town/the harbor. Michelle’s home was so accommodating and she was very available if we had any questions. We will be back! And in case anyone loves to cook, there are so many dishes and pots and pans including two cast-irons which we used the most! Plenty of wine glasses etc. The lady across the street asked to keep the porch light off because it shines in her bedroom window. Just fyi for future guests!
