The Captain's Watch in Cundy's Harbor, Maine, United States | Bed and Breakfast

Welcome to The Captain's Watch
Perched atop the most elevated bluff on the point, 250 feet from the water, this gracious 1862 landmark home affords long views over an authentic, small, working harbor and beyond to ledges, islands, river and bays. From the octagonal cupola crowning our rooftop, the panoramic vista to the Atlantic is stunning. Sparkling water showered with buoys provides a colorful confetti background for watching lobster boats, sailing vessels, seals and shorebirds. Hidden from those traveling Route 24 to Orr's and Bailey Islands is Cundy's Harbor, a seaside treasure- just ten minutes from U. S. Route 1 -central to the entire Bath / Brunswick region!
The Captain's Watch was built during the Civil War as the "Union Hotel". It later flourished as the "Cliff House" and the "Ocean View House". Recognized by the National Register of Historic Places and the Harpswell Heritage Trust, the eight room original section survives as Maine's "oldest known coastal hotel structure". After its heyday, the inn became a stately private residence until its rebirth as a hospitable Bed and Breakfast. For the history buff, we have inherited an array of intriguing photos and 'stories' from the days when visitors arrived by schooner, steamer or stage. Come share our pride in the restoration of this charming old home.
The Captain's Watch invite you to take pleasure in our private peaceful setting with it's commanding views. Sense the allure of the picturesque small fishing village and connect to the sea with a captained sail. From inside the house or from on the decks and terraces, savor the rugged beauty of the harbor's cove, cool sea breezes, country garden landscape and the beautiful architecture of this informal hip-roof Greek Revival home. From our hilltop, delight in brilliant sunrises and sunsets and a 'planetarium' night sky.
