Welcome to Virtue's Sea Cottages!

These three cottages, available for rental as single units or all together, are directly on the shore of Frenchman Bay, Maine.

In the mornings, you can watch loons and lobstermen from the porches as morning fog dissipates; in the evening, the sun turns the sky brilliant colors while the tide changes. You can be as active and "touristy" as you like, or just sit and enjoy this quiet corner of Maine.
	The cottages: Are in Hancock, Maine, on Frenchman Bay Are run by a native Mainer Have their own beach Are ideal for enjoying gentle days of a Maine coastal summer Are a great place to use as a "base camp" for exploring the area (see listing below.)
A week's rental at the Cottages is great for a couple's romantic, rustic getaway; for families that would like some time together without the noisy distractions of the city; for singles interested in walking in the woods and on the rocky beach; for anyone who likes nature and the ocean.
	In addition to the natural attractions near the Cottages, car trips can easily be made to Acadia National Park, Schoodic Point, Bar Harbor, and other towns along the coast. There are historic houses and forts within daytrip distance. The musically inclined can attend the Sunday and Wednesday concerts at the Pierre Monteux Memorial Conductor's School. People who like to eat will be enchanted by several excellent restaurants nearby, as well as traditional Maine lobster-cooking shacks. Boat rentals, fishing excursion companies, and golf courses are located in nearby towns. Some of our guests have made arrangements for rental kayaks to be delivered to their cottage for use while they are here.
Each cottage is suitable for up to five people: A bedroom with a double bed A bedroom with a twin bunkbed for two kids A daybed/couch in the living room Shower, refrigerator, microwave, oven and range Even the kitchen has a view over the ocean Wood stove for chilly mornings Each building is fully furnished, but you must bring your own linens (sheets, towels, etc).
	Our season runs from June 15 - September 15; most folks reserve in March for the coming summer. Saturday-to-Saturday rates are $810 per week which includes the 7% state rentals tax, for the summer of 2012. Reduced rates are available for those renting a month or more, and for rentals after the third week of August. We request one half of the total rental charge when a definite reservation is made, and the remainder on or before arrival. Cancellations must be made one month prior to the reserved date if the deposit is to be refunded. The cottages usually are rented from Saturday to Saturday, but the day is flexible if there is no conflict with other reservations. Most people reserve for the summer by March of that year.
