Located on the banks of the Little Kennebec Bay, this 1 acre lot with bunk house, small camp/cottage and RV lot offers commanding views of the waterfront. Sit on the little deck of the camp with your morning coffee and watch the sunrise over the bay as the fishermen prepare for their day on the water. Bold Coast Getaway is located just 6 miles off the beaten path from Machias proper. The lot has been improved with two wells; one dug well and one newer drilled well, an RV pad with hook-ups, a small rustic camp/cottage and a bunk house. There is easy access to the waterfront to launch your kayaks, beach comb or, if you are really brave, take a dip in the ocean waters! The bunk house offers a composting toilet, on demand hot water heater, outdoor shower/sink and plenty of storage space where the bunks used to be with storage above. The camp has a little deck overlooking the waterfront, and the interior has power panel and living space. You can utilize these buildings and RV lot to stay while you build your forever or getaway home OR enjoy just the way it is – make it your own happy place! The town of Machias is the county seat for Washington. Here you will find a good size grocery store, quaint shops and restaurants and the University of Maine at Machias with its Fitness and Aquatic Center open to the public for a small fee. In the summer there are a number of festivals to enjoy such as the popular Blueberry Festival held each August and the ever changing play When you do venture away from your own little sanctuary, there are numerous places to explore. Roque Bluffs State Park with its sandy beach, cool ocean waters and warmer pond is just minutes away. On those warm summer days, enjoy digging your toes into the warm sand or take a dip into the cool waters of the mighty Atlantic. You can drive in the opposite direction and enjoy Jasper Beach with its mounds of stone tumbled smooth by the waves. Listen to the water tumbling the stones with the rhythmic ebb and flow of the waves. These are just two of the numerous public areas to explore. With over 42,000 acres of public lands for hiking, biking, kayaking and boating, there is something for everyone within a 40 minute drive. Washington County is a lot of things. It is the most gorgeous, has the deepest cargo port, the longest coastline including the Bold Coast, the highest tides, and produces the most lobster and clam landings. What Washington County does not have is lots of traffic lights (only three in the whole county), an interstate, a Red Lobster Restaurant, or poisonous snakes. Known as the Sunrise County, Washington County welcomes the first rays of sun to shine on the US each day. With tides averaging between 18 and 22 feet, the bold, salt-sprayed shoreline of Downeast Maine offers deserted beaches, quiet hiking trails, rugged cliffs, and unnamed beauty. Truly one of the last frontiers on the Eastern seaboard, one does not have to go far to enjoy the natural beauty of the area. With 2 cities, 44 towns, and a population of approximately 32,000, Washington County is larger than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island combined. Something for everyone in beautiful Downeast Maine and coastal Washington County!
