The property boasts wonderful water views, shared facilities, including a beautiful outdoor pool, recreation hall, play area for children, beach access for kayaking, and a clay tennis court. There is also the Dining Hall on the property, which serves dinner in the dining hall where a dress code is still maintained. In order to stay at any cottages in the Auburn Colony, during the summer months, renters are required to pay an additional fee for dining at the Dining Hall. There have been some years recently that it has not been able to be open, due to staffing shortages. Renters will not be required to pay an additional fee for the Dining Hall if it is not operational ! The Dining Hall is known to serve chef prepared dinners a few nights of the week, as well as a Sunday brunch. It’s quite an impressive and convenient building to dine in. The history of the Colony adds so much to this little community in Harpswell ! This cottage is quite beautiful and accommodates large groups or small families so well !
