About This Home

As of March 2018

When in Maine, go to CAMP! This 2.73 ac property boasts TWO camps (think family compound?), and 281 feet on the Cathance River. Bring kayaks, bird watching binoculars, fishing poles and the hammock. There is a 2-bdrm seasonal waterfront cottage plus a 1 bdrm upland camp. Room for upgrading and/or expansion, or enjoy them just the way they are. Need a break from the R&R? Head into the vibrant town of Bowdoinham, Brunswick, or Portland. There is a reason we call this Riverhaven!
