Ever since Christmas 1614, when Captain John Smith dropped anchor in this picturesque spot, Christmas Cove has been a favorite of sailors. The protection is excellent, and it is not far off the east-west path. Christmas Cove is a busy little place, always full of movement, but it retains its wonderful, low-key atmosphere. Seals, mallards, and ospreys share the cove, along with a multitude of cruisers.

Who anchored his ship on Christmas Day 1614 in Maine naming the spot Christmas Cove?

John Smith I think this information is not correct. According to John Smith's "A Description of New England," he arrived at Monhegan, Maine in April of 1614, explored and traded along the coast, and was back in London in October 1614. So, he would have been in what is now called Christmas Cove between those two dates. There are much better sources for such material than the one cited.
