Idyllic ocean escapes in Rockport
Boasting one of the prettiest harbors on Maine's Atlantic seaboard, the town of Rockport enjoys a stunning coastal location, great access to local parks, trails and beaches and a picturesque downtown. Choose a Rockport vacation rental during the summer months for lazy beach days, exhilarating sailing on oh-so-blue waters and the gastronomic treats of the lobster shacks. Fall and springtime are more peaceful seasons for exploring the trails and beaches. Or, choose a Rockport vacation rental in the winter months to see this picture-perfect town under a dusting of snow or to ski, snowboard or toboggan at the Camden Snow Bowl.

Rockport's coastal charm
Lying halfway between its fellow picturesque coastal towns of Kennebunkport and Bar Harbor, Rockport is an ideal stopping-off point on any driving tour of Maine's Atlantic coast. Its pretty harbor, vibrant dining scene and inspiring galleries offer plenty of reasons to stay and explore. Head to Rockport Harbor's flower-filled Marine Park where you can pat the statue of the village's most famous resident, Andre the seal. From here, set sail from the little harbor, fish from the dock or stroll the coastal paths to the neighboring, and equally picturesque, port of Camden.
Rockport through the seasons
Winter sports enthusiasts can book a Rockport vacation rental December through March to enjoy the pistes at Camden Snow Bowl. Just 10 minutes from Rockport, it offers superb ski and toboggan runs with night skiing and stunning ocean vistas. In summer, temperatures climb into the 70s and the water calls. Don't miss the opportunity to head out on to the ocean yourself. Whether you hire a kayak to paddle round the calm waters of Rockport harbor or charter a schooner to explore the Rockport and Penobscot Bays under billowing sailcloth, you're sure of an unforgettable day out.
Get outdoors in Rockport
Rockport is the ideal base for outdoor activities. You have world-class sailing, golfing, bicycling, birdwatching and hiking on the doorstep of any Rockport vacation rental. Or, head to Camden Hills State Park to climb Mount Battie for sweeping views over the local area, the forested hillsides and the Atlantic. From Rockwood, the Ragged Mountain Trail offers some of the best views in the region. Hike through hardwood forests to a granite mountain top where you can take in the scenery.
