Our stay was relaxing and the house is well-equipped. The golf cart rental is a MUST. The outdoor shower was WONDERFUL! The TV didn't work but most of us did nor care. Combing the nearby beaches for sea glass and watching the sunset were among the highlights of our week.

The cottage was indeed charming, with all the comforts of a Maine cottage but with modern amenities such as dishwasher, washer/dryer. The owners and manager were super responsive. We didn’t use the kayak, but made use of the golf cart. The sunset views from the porch were stunning. It was well set up for kids too. In short, heavenly. Our only regret was staying just one week.

Can’t say enough about the owner, her wonderful friends Judy and the amazing caretaker Shannon. They made a amazing place and amazing experience. The island comes with almost no amenities outside of its natural beauty, peacefulness, and their loving community. The three women above all went out of their way to make this little adventure some as possible. We are already planning our next trip back

Beautiful spot to unwind and reconnect

A quiet cozy cottage with so much character! There’s an office space upstairs with an amazing view that my daughter used as her creative art space. There’s a great yard for sleeping in the hammock, picking apples and playing yard games. The wrap around porch was perfect hang out spot to play board games (well stocked), eat and just kick back with a glass of wine. The trail to the beach from the property was easy access to swim and collect shells and sea glass. Short walk (under 10 mins) to restaurants and ferry. Short ferry rides to other islands with amazing views and seafood. Property owners are easy to get in touch with if needed for anything.

Beautiful house on a quiet and peaceful island off Portland. There are no cars, stores, etc on the island so you do have to be prepared but it’s worth the preparation for the peace and serenity you will find on the island. The house is great and close to the water. We took the ferry to peaks island nearby and had a great time as well.
