There’s A Floating Hotel In Maine You Have To See To Believe

With as much coastline as Maine has, it should seem perfectly reasonable that some of our most incredible hotels are located along the water. But, we are still somehow awestruck when faced with the possibility of waking up with that perfect coastal view. If you've lived in Maine long enough to be a bit jaded when it comes to water views, you might want to check out this overnight option. When staying on land feels a little too boring, consider staying ON the water at one of these floating houseboats!

Welcome to Robinhood Cove Marina!

Located at the Kennebec/Sheepscot River basin in the beautiful Georgetown area of Maine.

It's known for idyllic mornings, with seals, ospreys, and local lobstermen.

You can visit for the day, but we recommend an overnight stay.

But, we don't mean on the shore overlooking this waterway.

With the unique houseboats available through Riggs Cove Rentals here, you can actually sleep ON the water.

Or the Nancy Lou.

Try the Tessie Ann.

And you could wake up with windows on all sides.

Enjoy your breakfast with the sun streaming in.

Or, dive into a good book...

...before diving into the actual water.

A stay here comes with all hotel amenities, including a TV, DVD player and kitchen.

And, a rental comes with use of two kayaks and a smaller motorized boat.

Enjoy unfettered access to life on the water...or head to the marina for some time on land before drifting off the sleep with the sweet sounds of the waves.

Riggs Cove Marina is located at 340 Robinhood Road in Georgetown, Maine. You can reach them on 207-371-2343 or 800 255-5206. Click here to keep up with them on Facebook. Or here for the Riggs Cove Rentals website.
