About this property
Johnson Homestead. One level living, ocean view with semi-private beach access.
The Johnson Homestead is located on the south end of Bailey Island looking out at the entrance to Mackerel Cove. With one level access to 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, front and back yards, this is the perfect place to unwind with easy accessibility. Sleeping 6-8(MAX), the house will be a comfortable fit for anyone wanting an ocean view from the living room couch or a chair in the front yard. Sit and watch the daily sunsets coloring the sky, they don't disappoint. Many days you will see Mt Washington on the horizon in the west as the sun sets, bringing the ocean view to a mountain view.
A short walk through the back yard will bring you to a semi private beach in tranquil Little Harbor. At the beach you may enjoy peaceful moments watching the sunrise, swimming, floating, kayaking, or exploring the ocean floor's tide pools. The high and low tides makes a walk to the beach a different adventure every day, that's part of Maine life!
The Johnson Homestead has central heat and AC. The bedrooms have: 1 Bedroom with King Bed, 2 bedrooms with Queen Beds, 1 bedroom with 2 Twins, Linens provided. There are two full bathrooms, one with walk in shower and one with a tub/shower, towels provided. The fully stocked kitchen has a eat in dining table with 6 chairs. There is a full sized washer and dryer. A gas grill for cooking out is provided. If you're hungry for local flavor in a Do-it-Yourself fashion pick up some "fresh off the boat" lobsters, cook them up yourself and eat them at the backyard picnic table. Delicious!
There is a sun porch on the eastern, backside of the home. Enjoy eating meals, reading a book, playing games, or just watch the children play in the back yard.
There is an automatic generator provided at the home.
We recommend exploring local gift shops, restaurants, and ice cream stands right here in Harpswell. If you would like to explore more of Midcoast Maine check out museums and the Maine State Music Theatre at Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Bath Maritime Museum, or the famous LL Bean store and outlet shopping in Freeport, Maine.
A few of the local Harpswell restaurants we recommend within a 5-30 minute drive: Cook's Lobster & Ale House, Sundrenched, Bailey Island General Store (BIGS), Salt Cod Cafe and Island Candy Company. Erica's Seafood, Dolphin Restaurant and Marina, Pammy's Ice Cream, and Uncle Pete's Community Market. Please confirm hours before arrival for seasonal days and hours.
We recommend a car for your stay here in Harpswell, Johnson Homestead is located 25 minutes from major grocery stores and the town of Brunswick. We hope you will be able to enjoy exploring all the Maine coast has to offer. If you will be flying to Maine we recommend Portland International Jetport (PWM). If assistance is needed for varying flight arrivals of your party, Safe Harbour Property Management offers concierge rides to and from PWM, please inquire.
