My wife and I (and a couple of friends) needed a break from work, and Carrie's place on Fire Island was just perfect. Scenic, quiet, and calming-- it checked all the boxes for us. Carrie is a great communicator, and is very helpful with tips and recommendations. An added bonus was how friendly the Islanders are. We had a great time participating in a local horseshoe tournament, meeting lobster folk, and locals working in the markets and stores. I'm not sure whether it is post-Covid mania, or just naturally a happy place, but everyone we came across in Islesboro just seemed to be feeling a Joie de vivre. Can't recommend this vacation-location enough!

We loved the ambiance of this true summer cottage with all its unique features. It was well appointed and clean, and offered all the distractions for a great vacation - beautiful beaches, hiking trails nearby, kayaks, games, puzzles and wonderful books.

Wonderful setting with responsive management.

It is hard to capture how wonderful this sweet cottage is. It is nestled between two bays so there are water views from everywhere and it is on the end of a private dirt road so you feel so secluded and far away from everything (in a good way). The cottage is rustic but very charming and was the perfect spot for our family of 5, including three young kids. Isleboro is amazing - beautiful and quiet but with all the amenities you need for a peaceful visit - a well stocked market, ice cream, and nice hikes. We hope to return many times again. Carrie, the owner, was also wonderful to deal with and very responsive and helpful.

Hands down the best family vacation in many years! Maybe even the best! The location was such a unique spot. The weather was perfect. And Carrie (the host) was absolutely great, always there if we had any questions or issues. We loved the house, the beach, the neighbors, everything! We plan to return next year, or maybe even in early fall. What a great place!

We were very pleased to spend our week in Carrie Lee's charming cottage which we believe to be the "Uncle Billy's" old residence! (BillyShore road). Everyone on the Island was gracious and helpful! We loved to be waved at as we drove from one end of this beautiful paradise to the other! Special thanks to Nancy Alexander and The Historical Society for her tireless attention to our research! We'll be back, God willing!

As good as it gets. We spent a sunny Summer week at this wonderful cottage on Sabbathday Bay. Lots of walks and the occasional dip to punctuate a week of relaxing on that great porch. The view is something you never tire of, and a sweet breeze always seemed to come along at just the right time. The rustic charm of this century old cottage might not be everyone's cup of tea but we five loved it.

We've just returned from our second year of spending two weeks in this lovely house. It's our favorite two weeks of the year! The spot is perfect, with water, truly, everywhere you look. We've always been lucky with weather, so we spend most of our time outside on the lawn, on the porch, on or in the water, or hiking the many gorgeous trails on the island. On the few rainy days we've encountered, however, it's been nice to hunker down in the house, which is sweet, and comfortable, and more than accommodates our family of four plus occasional visitors. The island is wonderful, with plenty for kids to do (riding at The Pripet Riding Program or sailing at Big Tree Boating), and, unlike some of the other islands off the Maine coast, groceries are readily available on Islesboro, which makes packing for vacation so much easier! This is really the most beautiful place in the world, and we are quickly growing to think of it as our home away from home.

This was our second stay at the Lee cottage and it was again a wonderful vacation. The cottage is a treasure with a location that can't be beaten. Our grandchildren visited and loved the rock climbing, beach combing and musseling. An ideal spot for those who enjoy the beauty of an iisland vacation. Joan Hill. Ivoryton, CT

Amazing cottage. Amazing week. Every window has an incredible water view. Our goal was to escape our busy lives and unplug for a week. Great hiking, walks on the two beaches, plucked mussels and cooked them. Completely restful and restorative. Daily trips to the island market for some local flair. We had a senior citizen with us and the house worked well for her. Cottage was very clean and provides everything one would need. I loved that we didn't pay extra for cleaning and were able to clean it ourselves. The owners were attentive and made sure our stay was smooth.

our family enjoyed our stay - terrific water views from both sides of the house, great little beach outside our door from which we picked mussels, swam, and sailed The pictures of the home are accurate, but do not do justice to the spectacular scenery that surrounds the place.
