Cottage was nice with everything you could need, hosts were wonderful, beach and amenities lovely. Would stay again

Great relaxing week!! The sunsets were incredible!! The house was perfect for us! Very clean and spacious and the location was perfect! The hosts couldn’t do enough for us. We highly recommend this property!!

We had a wonderful week on the island! Great hosts great home and amazing location! Would definitely recommend to anyone with teens that want their own exploring to do and still have family time. Hopefully we will be able to go back again soon.

Courtney and Josh are awesome hosts, very friendly and accommodating. House was very clean and well supplied. And everyone on the island is sooo friendly. Looking forward to staying again next year!

The house was neat and clean and perfect for our family of 5! We loved playing at the beach, fishing, s’mores at the fire pit, and exploring the the island. The owners were extremely kind and accommodating. We will be back for sure!

The house was exactly as advertised with everything we needed! The renters were gracious and communicated with us before we arrived and gave us a fantastic overview of the property, their private beach, and the different activities available on Frye Island. The house was clean and in a great location! We had access to their kayaks and other beach equipment! We had a great week!!

This is a cute cottage right across the street from a private beach, dock and boat mooring. The cottage has new owners and they are in the process of fixing the place up, but they are off to a great start. The place was clean and functioned fine for our group. It will be awesome when they finish the renovations! The island is so quiet and peaceful and the sunsets were AMAZING. Everyone is very friendly; there is a real sense of community there. VRBO listed a dishwasher in the amenities - there is NO DISHWASHER. The owners took note and hopefully the listing will be updated to be more accurate. The only other improvement I would suggest is more comfortable beds. The queen downstairs had a very thin/hard mattress. BYOB if you want to make your own cocktails. The general store sells beer and wine only, but you can get cocktails in the Frye Island Cafe and at the golf course. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we would love to return for another vacation!

We had a wonderful stay on Frye Island. Courtney and Josh were great hosts. They were very friendly and helpful. The house was clean, well stocked and comfortable. Although the beach is across the road we had glimpses of the water from our cottage and the boardwalk through the trees to the waterfront is enchanting. If we come back to Frye Island we would absolutely rent this cottage again

This was our third time staying here and the new owners have made some great improvements. Very cute updates and sparkling clean, with new linens and decor that make it even nicer than before! It's located in a quiet spot with beach/dock access right across the way. Having the golf cart to use was a huge benefit for us...quick pleasant ride to all island amenities. Courtney (the owner) was super responsive and helpful with any questions that we had. Highly recommend this relaxing and fun vacation spot!

Frye Island is magical and this home made for the perfect place to unwind and relax. The private beach is directly across the street, and the views are breathtaking! We have six children ranging i8 to 17 years old and each one had a wonderful time. There are hiking trails, golfing, biking, a public swimming pool and so much more. This home, island amenities and location won’t disappoint!

Perfect little house in a great spot. Located right across the street from your own private beach this was the perfect spot for us. The views were breath taking and we soaked up every last minute enjoying the beach. The owners were great they gave us a tour of the house when we got there and showed us where everything was. I highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a Frye island get away. Thanks again!

Property was just as advertised! Everything was perfect. Thank you!

This was our second year here and despite some rainy weather, it was wonderful. The location can't be beat, the check-in process and communication with the owner was superb, and the house was super clean. The dock and direct access to the sunset lake views make it perfect for anyone who loves the water and the outdoors...I spent a lot of down time there even in the rain. Having both a mooring and a golf cart for our use was perfect and the video library made my husband's week. :) Air conditioning in all the bedrooms is a major plus and unlike a lot of rentals, the beds were super comfy! This island has done an absolutely *amazing* job adapting to the Covid-19 restrictions while still managing to keep virtually all activities and facilities open, safe and functioning and it was just what we needed to detox from our stressful lives.

The house is quite comfortable, and we loved hanging out by the water at the dock. We enjoyed having a golf cart, canoe & kayaks - they were excellent pluses. The only shortcoming from our perspective was the lack of a working coffee maker. (There was a Keurig coffee maker, but no reusable keurig cups to put our coffee in.) Overall, we enjoyed our time a great deal.

If you are trying to enjoy Frye Island on a budget, this is the place fro you. Sleeps plenty of folks, great lake access.

We just love it. Can't say enough about this little gem....although we don't want to say too much as we don't want to let the secret out! Ha! Kathi and Alan are lovely people and we'll be looking forward to a 7th year on the island next year! (ps -- beds and water pressure are good! - always a must when you VRBO!)

My wife and I, eldest son and his wife and two grandsons, ages 10 and 8, had a memorable week at Frye Island and had the good fortune to have found Alan and Kathi's property for our stay. The house more than met our expectations, was fully equipped with everything we needed, had more than enough space for all of us, and was in an excellent location, Just a quick walk across the street to our own beach, dock and boating area complete with canoe, kayaks, beach and lounge chairs, and other swimming equipment. Frye Island has a number of public beaches and several of those are nearby, convenient and fun, as well. As noted, we were very pleased with the location of the house, and the fact that there was a golf cart we could use for quick transportation around the area (State law requires the operator to be a licensed driver, so no underage kids behind the wheel anywhere.) Although we did not need to trouble them, Alan and Kathi were available if we had had any questions or issues. No absentee landlords. Everyone in our party had a great time on the island and we all felt right at home in the house we rented from Alan and Kathi. It seems to be a tradition that everyone waves to people they pass while driving , golf-carting or walking around the island, and there is a friendly atmosphere. There is plenty of shopping in Windham, which is off the island, and we stocked up on what we needed before our arrival. We chose to stay on the island through the week, with only one trip on the ferry mid-week to restock and visit a few local attractions. If one chooses to go off-island more than that, there are plenty of things to do; but, we took advantage of things on the island and stayed close. The ferry schedule is convenient for what ever you choose to do. For future visits to Frye Island, the first place we will check for availability will be this property. We would all be happy to stay here again, and recommend it highly.

This was a nice house which met all our needs. It was well equipped with amenities ie towels, sheets, etc.. We loved having the golf cart to get around. The dock across the street gave us a place to relax with spectacular views of the lake. The Ross’s made themselves available for any questions we had. We are a family of 5 and had more than enough space in this house. We would definitely rent this house again!

I've been coming to FI for years. Really like this house, one of the best! Great to have such a clean and cared for home near beach and with golf cart to get around. Great hosts. Thank you ~

My family has been renting homes on the island for the past 15 years. This year we rented 4 cottages for the same week. I rented this cottage. Alan and Kathy were so nice. They gave us a tour of the home and explained where everything was. There are 3 bedrooms and a loft with 3 additional twin beds. Extremely spacious and private. The beds were very comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was incredible! We had 6 people and never had an issue with running out of hot water for the shower. The kitchen is great. Lots of space and every appliance you could possibly need, including a Margherita Machine! The beach is spectacular! A really nice walkway leads you there. Again very private and tranquil. The sunsets were beautiful! I am looking forward to renting this home next year - not a single complaint 😀�

Alan and Kathi were very gracious hosts, and we thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay on the island. The house was private and very comfortable, including the beds, which was a nice bonus. We had all of the household stuff that we needed for our stay, including plenty of toys for playing in the lake. Would definitely stay at their rental again, hopefully next summer :) A small suggestion, we would have loved to see a patio and grill on the ground level instead of upstairs, and a fire pit for those cooler evenings would have been fantastic!

I have been going to Frye Island for years, renting all over the island. Waterfront properties during peak season command quite a number. The only thing not on the water with this house is the home itself. The beach is very nice, the dock is in perfect condition and Alan and Kathy have all the water and beach toys you could ask for! Great owners, great property, great location!

We loved our week long vacation to Frye Island and wanted to stay longer. The house was well appointed and the beds very comfortable -- water pressure was great too! My daughters loved swimming, mountain biking, fishing in the marina and getting ice cream at the Frye's Leap Store. My husband golfed with his father one day and we even took advantage of the pool. The lake water was very very clean....you could see the bottom from the swim docks around the various beaches. We loved the island feel and the lack of commercial enterprise. It was truly relaxing and we've already booked again for next year. Thank you Alan and Kathy for all your help....we had a blast!

My wife and I stayed here with our two boys (ages 6 & 4) and this place was perfect. Owner was helpful and available without being intrusive. The property itself exceeded our expectations. It is extremely well equipped. We could have left half of what we brought at home as they already had it (fishing poles, boat tube, bikes, oars, life jackets, beach chairs...). We also found the property itself to be quite a bit more impressive than anticipated. The beach area is quite a bit bigger than the online pictures indicate and is more sandy than pebbly and west facing location is perfect. Mooring came in quite handy and was easy swim from dock. I am a Maine native and have spent time at many other spots on the lake. I've come to prefer Frye Island to staying on the shore as it provides all the positives without the crowding you can find with properties on the shoreline.

Owner was very kind and personable. Went there for a fishing trip with a couple of friends for the weekend and was pleasantly surprised by how accommodating and friendly Alan was. He accommodated us in a number of ways and received us very warmly. Would recommend staying here as the place is beautiful and the dock is private and has a magnificent view. I spent each night and morning on that dock enjoying coffee or a beer (depending on the time). Sunsets over mountains is amazing and I caught the biggest fish of my trip while just casually casting off that dock just before sunset. Great place to stay. Nice people. Quiet and relaxing area. If you haven't decided yet, stay here. Well worth it.
