Wondergul and very welcoming island!

We enjoyed staying at your cottage while we visited our grandchildren on Islesboro. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The porch was our favorite place to hang out and play games. The view was spectacular. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.

We loved the peace and solitude of this island as well as the rustic family cabin. We read books, swam at the beach down the stairs as well as the town beach. We met some very nice neighbors and some friendly locals. We watched seals in the harbor, found star fish, shells, sea glass, and a sand dollar! We hiked a nearby trail, ate lobsters chosen fresh off the boat, shopped daily in both general stores. We had breakfast sandwiches and deli sandwiches from the Dark Harbor Shop. We truly appreciate the beautiful views and all the people we came across. Such a wonderful experience.

Located on a small bluff over a cove, this is the vacation we most look forward to each year ! Lobster off the boat, morning sunrises out the window, and the sound of waves lapping the shore melt away all stress from the daily grind. This location has become our favorite yearly getaway 💐

This little cottage is as described. It’s a quaint coastal house high up on a ledge in a calm cove. The house is furnished with cozy, modest furnishings that are clean and comfortable and not too dear for children to use comfortably. Family photos decorate the walls. Cups, dishes, pots and pans are in abundance in the old kitchen cupboards. There are steep stairs to the water’s edge —lovely swimming in high tide, and wonderful exploring in low. This house is perfect for getting away from the distractions of the modern world. There are games and puzzles. No TV. Bring books, your knitting, sketching supplies or just sit and watch the sail boat with the saffron sail cover float around its mooring as the tide comes in and out. Isleboro is a very quiet island. No restaurants per se. There are two small markets, an ice cream shop, cafe, and a couple tiny shops where one can visit with lovely folks. People are friendly. Everyone waves on the road. There are protected walking trails, but no big hikes. Water close by everywhere you go. Drive slow.

Lovely and relaxing cottage, great location in the woods, yet offers gorgeous bay views. If relaxation and peace is what you are looking for, this is it. Durkee’s store is conveniently right around the corner and is well stocked. We had a great time!

We loved staying in this charming Maine cottage!! The views are spectacular and the location could not be better!! The cottage had everything we needed for our stay!! We loved the porch‼️We will be back!!!

We had a great stay and really enjoyed the location. The cottage had very quick access to the beach which was very nice. We really enjoyed drinking coffee in the sun room on the east side of the cottage each morning and watching the lobster boats in the small harbor next to the cottage. The kitchen was perfect and had everything you'd need, and three bedrooms was great for fitting our family. We'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

This location is spectacular!! Gorgeous views, your own private beach. Getting down to the beach was a bit precarious (a staircase that’s steep enough to be more of a ladder). Our nerves were tested watching our 3 year old getting up and down but he managed pretty well. The two older kids, 6 and 7, spent hours combing the beach for sea glass, starfish and sand dollars. Tons of treasures to be found! There’s also another beach on the opposite side of the peninsula we spent some time at too. It’s a quick little walk down the road. The cottage was well stocked and we had plenty of room to spread out even with a group of 7! There are plenty of dishes and cookware. We were so grateful for the dishwasher and washer dryer. We even used the wood stove on a chilly rainy evening! We so enjoyed our stay, it was the perfect place to decompress and relax for a week. Wish we had booked 2 weeks!

The MOST relaxing vacation we’ve ever had! This 1930’s cottage is exactly the lodging my husband and I prefer to stay in. All the kitchen necessities one could want, a great charcoal grill, and that wonderful homey feeling we both treasure in a world of crazy business. The cottage is perfectly situated on a small rock cliff above a private little cove, accessible by a set of wooden stairs. The Sunrises are beautiful and the peaceful sound of the waves lapping against the shoreline melted the stress of this Covid pandemic right off the shoulders of this nurse manager. I actually read THREE books!!! We have already booked next year’s stay - just a fabulous, relaxing week!

This little cottage is the quintessential Maine coastal spot. It is old fashioned, quaint and tucked away on an island among pines and cliffs. The perfect place to see the sunrise, unplug, sit on rocks, look at star fish during low tide, and do nothing. We’re going back.

So lovely. Quiet beautiful cottage on bay. Gulls, tides, sea breeze and beautiful landscapes to take in all around.

This property had gorgeous views and was very relaxing.

Islesboro is an amazing place for rest, relaxation and peaceful isolation; and the cottage is a beautiful place to call home for however long you can visit. The cabin is clean, comfortable, and the kitchen is really well equipped for cooking (you'll want to be prepared with most of your groceries before taking the ferry since there's just a few general stores on the island). We also really enjoyed the fireplace and spent time on the beach every day. It's a really great spot!

This traditional Maine camp was absolutely, 100% what we expected, wanted and needed from a trip 'home'. The perfect place to relax and restore. Tune the radio to WERU and leave it on as you sip your tea on the porch, make a meal in the well outfitted kitchen, sit by the wood stove or scramble the rocks. Our son LOVED it and event with breaking his arm (the island emergency services was amazing!) he can't wait to go back to "his" camp. We hope to make this an annual trip.

While older the home is well maintained and a decent size. The views of penobscot bay are beautiful. The owner was a pleasure to deal with answering any questions we had. Definitely would stay again!!

We love Islesboro!!The house was fine. Amazing views! Electric switches and lights need to be updated. Stairs to typical Rocky Maine beach were a littlecontentious. Otherwise the house was suitable. We would go back.

Bayberry Point is in a fantastic spot. We enjoyed the view so much! Make sure to wake up and look at the sunrise from the steps.

This three-bedroom cottage is simple but cozy and well located. We so enjoyed the direct access to the water and the sun porch for reading and eating. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen adequate and the island peaceful and beautiful. If you want a place away from it all, in a simple cottage with room to read, nap and enjoy and enjoy lobsters, stay here. It's simple, its somewhat what rustic, but its comfortable.

The most relaxing vacation we have ever had! We loved our stay and the cabin was perfect. Great location and had everything we needed. Juli was a great host and was very attentive. We would definitely stay here again!

Most relaxing vacation ever. The no TV thing was amazing. My wife and I were lucky enough to meet a few locals who guided us to all the beaches. We also got to experience of pulling out our own fresh lobster out of the crates at the docks. The nights got very chilly but the wood was supplied throughout the week for a very efficient wood stove. We had our own bald eagle living in the tree outside our deck. And a resident red squirrel and giant rabbit. Nightly the seals came in the chase bait fish. This trip is what you call the opposite of City Life.

We liked Julie’s place so much, we came for a second summer. Everything was perfect- just as we remembered. This year we stumbled into pickleball night - and would highly recommend it! Everyone was very friendly and it was a nice way to get some movement in before dinner.

Juli was great about answer my numerous questions, about contents of the cabin , location to the beach, other businesses on the island. The cottage was rustic , but quaint. I booked a surprise sailing trip on the Bonnie Lynn for us all. 3 hours on a beautiful sail boat. We had a great long weekend with our family.

This cabin is a lovely retreat away from the fast paced lives that we live! Very serene.

The view was amazing. The cottage so charming and well appointed. Our stay was much too short but we enjoyed every minute on Islesboro. Many lovely areas to explore. All in all a wonderful experience. Hope we are able to return.

This is a wonderful cottage on Islesboro, overlooking the ocean. Lovely isolated beach and unbelievably quiet. Was exactly as advertised, very clean and well furnished. Kitchen had extensive cooking ware and dishes, lots of utensils and a dishwasher! Owner was easy to communicate with and responsive to questions.

Beautiful view of the bay with its sparkling waters alternating with gentle fog. Perfect Maine island rocky beach just a short path and steep stairs away. We could see occasional rabbits and chipmunks out the other windows. The complete kitchen allowed is to cook everything we wanted. The space heater warmed us on chilly mornings.

This was a perfect place to escape NYC. A place where sitting and staying is the all you’ll want to do in the best sense. Gorgeous views, idillic island a place to truly unplug, turn off, and forget the rest of the world. We will DEFINITELY be back for a longer stay next time.

Beautiful, quiet setting right on the beach. Perfect place to have a family retreat. Read a book and play games and make some lobster stew!! Islesboro is such a pretty place to visit and just a short ferry ride to mainland activities, shopping and restaurants. We definitely want to come back for a longer stay.

We loved staying here. The view is incredible and the weather was perfect. Highly recommend getting up to catch the sunrise from the beach!
