Location: Peaks Island, Portland & Casco Bay, Maine, USA (20 minute ferry ride from Portland)
Accommodations: Vacation House, 3 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 6)
Recently renovated cottage retains its classic charm: wide pine board floors, butcher block counter tops, nautical and rustic decorative touches throughout. Enjoy quiet mornings at the breakfast bar in the fully equipped kitchen. The living room, with its open floor plan and cathedral ceiling, is perfect for classic board games in the evenings. The bedrooms combine modern, comfortable mattresses with rustic quilts and antique bed frames. Fall asleep to the distant sounds of foghorns. In the words of Rachel Field, "Once you have slept on an island, you will never be quite the same."
Ideal location at the end of a street, surrounded by trees with wooded lots on three sides, the cottage feels secluded in the woods, yet is five minutes walk to the ferry wharf, grocery store, restaurants and beaches. Enjoy the leisurely pace of Peaks Island life with all of the attractions of Portland only 20 minutes away by ferry: the best of both worlds.
