Historic Captain's House on shore of Penobscot Bay

Welcome to the historic Knox House in Searsport, Maine. This Captain's home, built in the mid-1800's, boasts ocean side seating and old world charm. Take a step back in time while enjoying modern amenities in this newly renovated historic home just a short walk from downtown Searsport. Knox House is also a minute walk to the public boat launch where ocean fishing and tour guides are available to meet you. Situated on Penobscot Bay, this home places you on Maine's beautiful mid-coast, a few miles from Belfast and historic Fort Knox and the Penobscot Bay observatory. In our three cozy bedrooms featuring two queen beds and two twin XL beds (AC in each room) guests find plenty of space to relax and enjoy water views from each room. Every room has been updated for modern comfort, while our record collection, board games, and ocean side seating are provided as a way to reconnect. This is a special property.
