Guestbook comments from the owner
Hi Brett:
Just wanted to write and let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at the Capt. Johnson House last week. We were very comfortable and the house was comfortable and just perfect. I understand from your niece that you were responsible for the design and renovation. You did a fantastic job.
We’ve rented many homes in Florida and in Park City over the years and your home was the most comfortable and beautifully appointed.
Thank you again for a memorable stay.

Wonderful Home!! We loved it!
Great views. Everything you could ever need! A perfect vacation home!
Magical Maine house
Our twelve member family so enjoyed our too short stay in the Johnson house. Fabulous kitchen, super comfy beds and spacious gathering rooms make it the most perfect spot for a vacation. I just wish we could have stayed longer.
Bailey’s Island has so much to offer: hikes, all kinds of boating (we had a schooner sail arranged by the owner) and great seafood restaurant and variety of light eating places within walking distance
Truly a great place!
Lovely house, But Not for the Elderly
We had a wonderful time in Bailey Island, but would not recommend this house for the elderly or for people with mobility issues. 10 steps up just to get in, and 16 steps up to the bedrooms. Also a very steep driveway and path are the only access routes, so it made it impossible to take a walk if you have bad knees like I do. There is a pull-out couch and a bathroom on the ground floor, but you still have to climb the steps to get into the house. That said, the house itself was delightful (although rather more compact than the photos indicate). Each bedroom has it's own bathroom, and it's nicely decorated. Beautiful views from the porch. I miss that porch now that I am back home. Bailey Island is a treat, too -- near Brunswick for grocery shopping, with several terrific restaurants and a couple of pretty souvenir shops nearby.
What a great time!!!!
We had an amazing time - didn't hurt that the weather was incredible. We enjoyed the kitchen which was top notch for all of our gourmet cooks. The history and beauty of the house was so great. We loved having a bathroom for every bedroom too!
The island is very fun. We hiked and kayaked and ate delicious lobster right off the boat!
Loved This House!!!!!!!
My family and I and friends had a spectacular time at this house. The interiors are so well done, the grounds charming, and the views breathtaking. We had memorable meals in the exceptionally well-appointed kitchen, and we slept like babies in beds and bedrooms that left nothing to our wanting. Inside and outside on the spacious decks, we enjoyed early mornings and stunning sunsets. Our stay could not have been better.
Thank you Brett Johnson and family!
We hope to return!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Relaxation at its best
We had the most relaxing week at the Captain's House on Bailey's Island. There was ample room for our two teenagers, and all of us (including the dog) enjoyed the scenery and the panoramic views. We took beautiful hikes along the water including Cliff Trail, Devil's trails and the Giant's stairs. We enjoyed kayaking. The house is amazing with a fantastic kitchen including all amenities. The owners were great. We grilled most nights, witnessed beautiful sunsets and even one eclipse! Would love to return.
