About this property

Lovely deck to watch the boats come and go, and incredible sunsets!

Welcome to Whitesail's Cottage!

Tucked near the very end of picturesque Bailey Island, Whitesail's Cottage is the perfect cozy coastal escape. This charming retreat offers classic Maine character, beautiful water views, and the soothing rhythm of the Atlantic tides just outside your door. From the spacious deck, you can watch the lobstermen come and go from the cove, listen to the waves, and soak in the peaceful island atmosphere. A short stroll brings you to the rocky shoreline, ideal for exploring tidepools, beachcombing, or simply admiring the ever-changing seascape.

Step inside and you'll find a quaint, well-equipped kitchen ready for preparing everything from a quick breakfast to a full Maine seafood feast. Continue on into the welcoming living area, where sliding glass doors frame the water view and lead out onto the large deck, your outdoor haven for relaxing with a book, enjoying a meal, or taking in the salty breeze.

Just off the living area is the cottage's cozy bedroom, complete with a queen bed and a twin bed, offering flexibility for couples, friends, or small families. A charming enclosed porch area adds extra space to unwind and enjoy quiet moments. For your convenience, a washer and dryer are located in the cellar, accessed via the outdoor bulkhead.

Simple, sweet, and full of coastal charm, Whitesail's Cottage offers an affordable and unforgettable island getaway. Come enjoy the gentle tides, ocean breezes, and the timeless beauty of Bailey Island.

Great View

The kitchen and bath have been updated, the furniture could use an update as well. The once weekly basement pump flush woke us up at 4am, it would be nice if we had some notice, or if it went off during the day. Very cozy, enjoyed our stay on Bailey Island.
