Wonderful rustic summer cottage in the woods! One of the few really private wooded areas on PI and easy walking distance to town beaches. Reminds me of how the island used be decades ago -- nothing fancy but nicely appointed. A great collection of old books and travel guides.

Sweet basement apartment on the southern side of Plum Island. Ed was kind and the location was fabulous with easy access to the beach and a short walk to local shops. This island is magical.

About the host

Hosted by Ed Mair

Host profile image
Bird watching brought me to Plum Island, I am retired and enjoy the small woods in back of the house almost as much as the glimpses of the ocean from the front. I walk on the beach almost daily year around and photograph what I see!

Why they chose this property

It has a private nature trail loaded with warblers in the spring and fall as well as
several interesting species year round.

What makes this property unique

Very private and quiet for Plum Island.
