About the host
Hosted by Stephen & Kirsten Henry
We are easy going folks from down east Maine. We have lived in Maine and here on island our whole lives. We excel in concierge services, as we have tried most everything here! We love to hike, bike and boat but most of all we love good food and meeting new people. We purchased business in 2017 but cottages have been here since 1936. You can see more on our website www.baymeadowcottages.com
