Further Details for the cottage in Maine, USA

History We first saw this many-windowed home built by a lobster man (circa 1975) in late September 2006. It captured us immediately. We had been searching for this very spot for years. Simple and straightforward, characterized by its connection to the land and water, the house felt rooted, serene, and yet within easy reach of all our favorite mid-coast haunts. To complete the sense of peace, a lobster boat wrapped in fog floated in the near distance. The lobster man who built River Watch knew his views and waterways. Beautifully situated to overlook Watts and Cutler coves, the main house and studio bedroom/bath sit at that magical point mid-peninsula where the river flows down to meet the sea. Rocky outcroppings near the house add texture and interest to the charismatic landscape. The light over water and land is ever changing, the night sky a rich black (no light pollution here) full of stars, and the moon makes a bright path over Watts Cove.

River Watch now offering autumn weekends Summer brings the heady beauty of long days full of light, warmth, and adventure on water and land at River Watch. We love to get out in the kayaks and explore the coves and distant shoreline. Last summer we docked on the far side of the St. George River and hung out on the rocks, fishing, dreaming, and (the younger folk) digging in the pebbly sand. Nearby Clark Island (Clark Island Road, off Route 73) ends at a conservation trail that winds along a shoreline of soft creamy sand and large flat rocks, where it's engrossing to stare into the sun (or tide) pools watching miniature marine life - starfish, sea urchins, crabs, and snails meandering. The area truly comes to life in summer: the lobster shacks at Waterman's Beach, Tenants Harbor, and beyond all open up, lupine and wild roses bloom in fields and along roadsides. Crescent Beach in Owls Head and Birch Point State Park in South Thomaston offer gentle shorelines for swimming, as does Lake Megunticook in Camden.

Eagles and herons I saw my first eagle in the wild at River Watch the other day. The circling hawks cried 'danger' to one another while the eagle, as big as a four-year old, sat on a lofty branch surveying the growing hysteria. Meanwhile, the resident great blue heron comes to fish at low tide - standing in that famous one-legged pose, as silent and mysterious as the Sphinx.
