New England Charm Perfection!
This house! What a perfect week! You simply can't beat it for twice the price. We were in town for the
Bowdoin Music Festival in Brunswick, about a 25 minute drive. Don't let the pictures fool you. I was a bit trepidatious seeing the pics online, but owners we kind enough to let me walk through the cottage the week before and all my worries floated away. It is spotless! Like really really clean. Not a cobweb in sight. There is a lovely welcoming deck perfect for reading or having a glass of wine while watching the sunset. The Home is quite well appointed. China service for 4 with lots of pots and pans. Large fridge and stove/oven so we made our own breakfast and lunch and a couple of dinners. The trundle bed was comfortable as was the full bed in the bedroom. Bring your own sheets and towels. There were coffee filters and a maker. There's a very effective heater for those chilly nights. Wifi was good. It was so quiet at night. Easy short walk to lovely cove beach as well as Land's End gift shop and another small beach. Owners Carl and Lesley were wonderful. Very responsive. Let us check in a bit early. They truly care about their guests' satisfaction. A terrific value on Bailey Island!
Very clean & quiet
Immaculate and well stocked with basics. Nice deck to sit and grill. Very relaxing and enjoyable spot. A bit small but space used very efficiently. Owners are exceptional. Were there to greet us and answer any questions. Made us feel at home the entire week. Would definitely return on our next trip to Bailey Island. Thank you Carl & Leslie for your hospitality.
Loved this place!
So, this cottage is rustic, but so sweet.
It is immaculate, and clean, and comfortable.
We love Bailey Island and were lucky to stay before the season really started because the island was not crowded.
This was a wonderful get-a-way! Thank you.
Great Place For A Getaway!
Very clean cottage with all the amenities of home! The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking and baking and the pantry is well-stocked with paper products, household necessities and extra blankets. There are extra pillows in the bedroom and 2 closets with hangers. The cottage literature is up to date and offers a wide range of things to see and do. Access to a semi-private beach is just down the road! The proprietor was friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay!
What a beautiful stay!
My husband and I had such a wonderful long weekend to kick off the summer at the cottage. There's no place like this. Joan and Adam were beyond wonderful as hosts - we can't wait to go back. <3
Map

These islands are connected to the mainland by three bridges, the last of which is the one of a kind 'Cribstone Bridge'. It is about a thirty minute drive from the Route One / Cook's Corner interchange in Brunswick. Please note that there is no fuel available after leaving the Brunswick area and heading out toward Bailey Island.
