Wonderful home - it was well appointed with any cooking utensil you could need, a spacious refrigerator and lots of warm, cozy blankets! While it is a true "camp" house (no insulation or heat) there were many space heaters that we used to warm up, as well as blankets to keep us toasty at night. Quiet, restful place! Would definitely stay there again!

We were a group of 8 adults on the island for a wedding. Plenty of room for conversation and cards, views off the front porch are amazing. Owner answered all our questions on info for the area!! Would stay again!

Liked the house and the location.

We spent a week on Peak's Island with our group of 4 adults and 1.5 year old twins in June. If anything, the house is even more charming in person and the surrounding property was full of gorgeous plants and flowers and backs up to the forest. The house is at the end of a quiet, dead-end road with incredibly kind neighbors across the drive. You can hear the ocean waves from inside the house when the windows are open and you have an amazing view of the water from the wrap around, covered front porch! Every corner of the house felt lovingly cared for and thoughtfully arranged. There was a pack n play and a high chair provided at the house (though we brought our own since we have twins!) and we found great spots to take a picnic and splash around in the shallow tide pools with our toddlers a ways down on the rocky beach. There are some steep staircases in the house, however, so if you have little crawlers / new walkers, you'll just need to keep an eye on them. We had no problems with that. One of our other favorite things about the house was the outdoor shower! We all preferred it to the indoor shower option. We drove and had our car with us, but it costs $70 round trip to ferry the car to and from the island so we left the car on the island all week and only drove it to get to the ferry if we wanted to go into Portland, which we did several times and explored on foot. There were plenty of walkable shops, restaurants, coffee shops, etc from the Casco Bay ferry dock in Portland so not having our car on those days wasn't much of an issue. We loved our entire stay and found the island to be full of charm, gorgeous houses and beaches, and friendly people. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Celebrating our "70" birthday with 7 young ladies! It was a perfect spot for us!! The view is spectacular Very clean, comfy, and a family feeling!

Was the perfect getaway for our group of 7 mature ladies celebrating the bride to be. The house was a bit more rustic than expected and lacked any sound proof but was charming and comfortable. Our group really enjoyed exploring the island and would visit again. Was fun to take the ferry from Portland to the island and back. Just plan to arrive an hour early if taking a car on the ferry. Great trip, thanks to our hosts!

My partner and I would definitely name this home, “Heaven”. Despite the spotty, rainy, cold, typical Memorial Day Weekend Weather we were beyond grateful to be here. Absolutely stunning property just a short walk from the main Route around the Stunning views off Peaks Island. This home was a diamond you’d want to mine for. We will definitely be back ! -The Rosenfield’s

What an absolutely delightful oasis for our first post covid getaway. Everything from the ferry ride , the postcard perfect location with beautiful sunrises , the charm, cleanliness and spaciousness of the house was just perfect. We enjoyed several walks around the island and never got in the car until we left Monday. Saturday night we took the ferry into Portland for a wonderful and enjoyed the moonlight ferry ride back to Peaks. We could not have designed a more perfect home and getaway to chill and decompress after these past 15 months. Thank you for sharing your home with us and for being such a communicative and gracious host. We will be back!!! Ricky P

We had a lovely stay at the property. The home is very spacious and we enjoyed many meals on the wraparound porch. The views are wonderful. We do recommend bringing bikes or renting a golf cart for getting around the island (i.e. to the beach and to the store). Peaks Island is such a gem, we loved getting cinnamon buns from Peaks Cafe, ice cream from Down Front, and lobster rolls from Island Lobster Company (with great views!). We also really enjoyed taking the ferry over and having some meals in Portland, or taking a day trip up/down the coast.

If a picture's worth a thousand words, the photos of this property speak for themselves. Vintage class. Comfortable, clean, welcoming. Exceptionally beautiful master bedroom...spacious, wood -covered, airy. Great family place with 'nooks' for reading, playing cards, gathering together, or finding a moment of solitude. We looked east over the ocean and could hear the surf beyond the trees. An easy walk to the seashore road that curves along the shoreline where the waves crash over the rocks. Perfect for strolling, running, watching the sunrise or the tides change. Great Maine experience.

This seaside property was oozing with charm and had a cozy, family decor with a spectacular view of the ocean. We were there during an October Nor’easter and had a real adventure! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!

The house was just as described and comfortable. Communication with the owners was great! They always answered my questions promptly. We had so much fun walking down the steep trail down to the water and just sitting. Using the ferry back and forth was very simple and a pleasant ride. Theres a great restaurant on the Island to go to and the grocery store is good in a pinch when u forgot something. Thanks again for sharing your home with us...we had a great time. E. Arnold

We had the most wonderful time here, and really hope to be back soon! It's a magical home and the location is perfect. Can't recommend highly enough.

Great to unplug from the world, get away and enjoy peaks island! Serene existence enjoying the views, preparing delicious local cuisine. Relaxing!

This is a high quality home with a short walk to the ocean. It is beautifully decorated space with lovely view.

We love tradition and we love that we can celebrate our Peaks tradition in such a welcoming environment. It was so nice to be able to come "home!" Our first day found us relaxing around the fire, napping on the day bed, and baking in the kitchen. It was a day of rejuvenation. Saturday we enjoyed a schooner ride in the bay that was amazing with strong winds and bright sun. Sunday we took out the bikes and once again enjoyed the island roads and majestic ocean vistas. Our son, who recently had surgery, joined us on a rented golf cart and we were so glad we were all able to enjoy this special time together!!! We all agreed that our favorite activity was enjoying the sunrise from the amazing porch as we sipped coffee and enjoyed the peace and solitude of the quiet side of the island. We look forward to many many years maintaining this special tradition! Thanks for sharing your slice of heaven. I cannot think of a better home from which to enjoy this special island.

Our family has just returned from a wonderful long weekend on Peak's Island at the Halsey Family's cottage. In truth, the pictures do not do it justice - the setting is idyllic and the front porch overlooking the water is heavenly for morning coffee, reading a book or just relaxed contemplation. The house was well stocked and the layout functioned beautifully for us. Looking forward to a return trip soon!

This lovely large ocean view cottage is fantastically located, and Woody is a consummate host, friendly and very responsive. One couldn’t ask for better owner/managers than Woody and Comfort. Only one other home, across the road, is easily visible. Wake to morning light over the ocean in the master and two bedrooms facing the ocean. The master bedroom is a dream. Outdoor shower is fantastic looking up to private woods. Full large kitchen, easy for 2-4 people to cook together in. Convenient washer dryer. While we were there we had access to 3 adult bikes and one child’s. As long as you have bikes, a golf cart, or car this is in some ways the best spot on the island. Lots of privacy and peace and quiet. We plan to return!

This charming home was a perfect oasis for our grown family to gather together. The proximity of the island to Portland and frequent departures and arrivals provided by the ferry allowed those that were unable to be there for our entire stay to come over for family time while meeting other obligations. No pictures can do justice to this beautiful home that features a front porch perfect for gathering morning, noon, and night. We witnessed spectacular sunrises and marveled as the full moon reflected over the ocean. The fireplace provided many cozy late night gatherings and the spaciousness of the house allowed everyone time alone when needed. The quiet location was also much appreciated as it is on the less traveled backside of the island, tucked away at the end of a dead end road. We enjoyed bike riding daily and went on an amazing trail ride with gentle horses along the ocean. We all have many favorite memories we will treasure forever. My personal favorite was the family meals around the spacious table prepared in the well-equipped kitchen… or maybe it was early morning coffee on the porch… or perhaps listening to the waves crash against the rocks as we were lulled asleep. Okay, possibly it’s too hard to choose just one memory, as they were all magical. One thing I am sure of is that we plan on making this a family tradition- we will be back!! Thank you so much for sharing your delightful home with us.

Peaks is an amazing island to spend time on with young kids and this is the PERFECT house to rent. Beautifully furnished, light and airy, wraparound porch from your dreams, outdoor shower, amazing views, perfect sunsets, close to everything. You'll come back again and again and again.

With a picture perfect view of the ocean, tucked away among the trees at the end of a dirt road, this house was a perfect location for our mini family vacation. Our niece's destination wedding brought us to Peak's but we had the added benefit of spending a few extra days at the cottage. The house was spacious with a great kitchen but the best feature was the outdoor shower. Morning coffee on the porch with family and a view of the water through the trees, was heavenly! The new bedroom was fantastic and roomy. The other bedrooms were also spacious, clean and full of character.
