Informazioni su questa struttura

Traditional Maine Cottage

Comfortable & family-friendly, this 4 bed/3 bath, well-equipped home offers access to the wonders of the ocean tides with the luxury of a heated pool, sunny deck and cozy indoor spaces to relax and recharge.

Originally built in 1900, the Flying Jib was moved to a new foundation and underwent renovations in 1991. It now boasts 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, large, comfortable living spaces, and a fully equipped kitchen.

The cottage is equipped with games, books, and puzzles, internet access, televisions that allow for streaming content as well as viewing of dvd's.

The property allows for direct access to Herrick's Bay, to the west and what may be the most beautiful walk and views of Blue Hill and Jericho Bays to the east and south. High tide completely covers the rocky shore, and low tide allows for exploration of the wondrous sea creatures that live beneath. Live sand dollars, sea stars, anemones, a myriad of crabs and sea urchins can be observed along sandbars that become walking paths at very low tides that give access to the off-shore islands.

We only rent by the week between June-September (Saturday to Saturday). We can be somewhat more flexible in the shoulder season.

Lovely Location and Historic Home

We had a wonderful time at They Flying Jib. The house is historic and has the charm of a home built long ago. It was clean and Kate was a great host, easy to reach and share any good places to go. It is between an hour and 15-30 minutes to get to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, depending on traffic, but it is near small little areas like Deer Isle and Brooklin is a quaint place, as well. We enjoyed our stay and recommend it.

Amazing family vacation

The “Flying Jib” was perfect for our family vacation. My 4 daughters and families came from all over the country to stay together in Maine. The house was big enough for 8 adults, two children, and one baby. I have never seen a VRBO kitchen this well stocked with dinner ware, pots and pans, and pretty much any gadget you might need. There was even a stock of spices. We managed to hit Maine during an uncharacteristically hot week. It got up to 85 and 90 which is pretty rare for June and being at the coast. There is no AC but plenty of box fans to keep the air moving and bring in the cooler air in at night. The pool was amazing and we made great use out of it. The pool needed to be vacuumed but was otherwise nice. The ocean was a short walk away and the kids had fun searching tide pools for creatures. There is a lot to do around the area as well. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are 1.5 hrs away giving us lots of options for hikes, shopping, and sight seeing. You can also get a variety of whale watches and fishing tours but beware you need to book these before you go because, as we found out, trying to find one while we were there was not happening. I also really liked Deer Isle. It’s a nice short pretty drive. Stonington is quant little town with some shops and restaurants. We ate at 27 Fathoms while there. I would recommend this property and would love to go back in the future.

Charming house, incredibly stunning location, great host

Flye Point in Brooklin, ME is simply stunning. We enjoyed a true Maine experience in this vacation cottage. The pool was a nice to have in August, and Kate is a terrific host. We had a wonderful week.

What a great place! A little piece of heaven right here on earth. We had a great time and the pool is an added treat - especially for us Floridians who love swimming - Would recommend the Flying Jib to anyone, anytime.

Brooklin Week

We loved the house, spaciousness, and location. The kitchen was wonderfully well supplied, the mattresses were comfortable and in good shape, and the screened porch was a daily delight. The pool furniture was all high quality. Our only suggestion is that the master bedroom deck doors offer more privacy than they do now (curtains or shades). We would happily return.

Relaxing week

The location provides a short walk down to the ocean and it’s so much fun to walk out to the islands at low tide. The pool was a plus. The kitchen was well stocked (almost like someone lives there). The kitchen needed a good cleaning as did the sofa which smelled like a wet dog. Steps had dog hair as did some floors. I would call it a bit rustic, which was fine. Don’t miss Pugnuts for ice cream!

Wonderful Accommodations

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this lovely cottage which truly captured everything our imaginations had expected from vacationing on the coast of Maine. The cottage was comfortable, clean, and quiet. All of the places we wanted to go were within (at most) an hour’s drive. Kate was a wonderful, responsive hostess, always available to answer questions about the area and provide suggestions of places to go. Wonderful experience!

July 2024

It is important to remember that this is, as stated, a traditional cottage. Otherwise, the exterior of the cottage might seem disappointing upon arrival. It is, however, reasonably updated inside and run by an exceptional host who is responsive, thoughtful and has ensured that the cottage is clean, comfortable and has all expected amenities, and more. Having a private pool in Maine, although a little chilly, was an excellent perk. Moreover, the location was perfect for freely exploring what the coast has to offer, both onsite and an easy day trip to Acadia. We hope to return!

Great Stay in Flye Point

We had a great week at the Flying Jib. We traveled with 3 young kids and we had a great week. There is plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, the pool was fantastic, and we walked down to the ocean almost every day. I wish we had brought our bikes or a folding beach cart to walk the kids down to the water, but we managed. We've stayed in multiple locations in Brooklin, Stonington, Brooksville. etc. and we REALLY enjoyed the location of the Flying Jib. It's secluded, quiet but yet still relatively close to a variety of things to do (hikes, restaurants, etc.). We would definitely stay here again.

Family Vaca August 2021

This is a nice cozy place, it is off the beaten path so it was very relaxing for our family to disconnect from the outside noise of city life. We were able to source local lobsters, oysters and clams for two meals. We were able to feed and seat 9 people by using two tables. The pool was relaxing and we played some games so we didn't use the TV. The owner of the property responds quickly either by phone or email.

Beautiful Down East Experience

This is a lovely spot on Flye Point. The house is an interesting mixture of old cottage and newer addition and care has been taken to provide a variety of essentials. The deck overlooking the ocean was perfect for morning coffee and most evenings we dined on the enclosed porch. The pool is in good shape and we enjoyed playing cornhole on the deck. This is a great place to get away and experience the Maine coast (and there's even a wild blueberry field up the road!). It isn't necessarily what we would recommend if you're looking for a lively setting with lots of restaurant choices.

What more can you ask for?!?!?

Great communication at all points in the rental process. Home was exactly as listed! Our large family fit comfortably. We spent so many hours of quality family time either in the pool or in the ocean exploring. Acadia national park, bar harbor and so many nice little towns to explore within an hour drive. Loved the thoughtfulness of the small things they have in the house you may not always think about while headed on vacation ie. bandages, flashlights, off, pool toys just to name a few. Thank you John for everything you do/did to make everything so wonderful! We will be back!!!

Maine….the way life is!

As a Mainer, I feel it’s important to vacation at “home”, too. Every other year we spend at least a week in Maine so that we can support our Maine community. This was our first time staying at here. Here are some of our favorite things: 1. It’s secluded. Away from the hustle and bustle of Maine’s summer vacationland. However, you are a 15-30 minute drive to everything you might need/want while here. 2. The access to the ocean. A 5-7 minute walk and you can explore, swim, rest, walk, read, etc.,,, We found sea urchins, sea glass, and other sea treasures. We didn’t find as many sea stars, but we wonder if it’s because the water felt warmer (not warm at all) than usual for this time of year. We had several exploration days. 3.The house itself is definitely a Maine sea cottage vibe with lots of History. A grill/patio area, a covered porch, living room area, and a pool patio area were some of the places to escape and relax. 4. The pool. We only used it 1x and it was one of the main reasons we chose the house. (Ocean and pool means my teens would be happy.Less fighting! Ha!) but, the weather did not cooperate. 5. The host was awesome with communication and being helpful. She was lovely. She even helped us find some treasure hunting hot spots. We also enjoyed visits to Brooklin Inn for dinner, Blaze, and got lobsters off the pier in Stonington….so fun!!!! I would definitely pack some warmer clothes for evening just in case temps drop. We hope to come back! Thank you!

Wonderful stay, lovely cottage!

We had an amazing week at this property. We had a mix of adults, teens and children, and everyone had a blast! I did not expect to have a pool in Maine, but the kids really enjoyed it! The house is an older home, but we were all very comfortable and had plenty of space to spread out. It took a little over an hour to get to Acadia, sometimes traffic was heavy, but it was not a bad drive. We did not get to explore the local area as much as I had wanted (Acadia was incredible and we spent several days there!). There was no lack of things to do locally, but like I said, we just ran out of time! We all felt the house was extremely well equipped, the kitchen was well stocked and so nice to have plenty of towels and bedding! Blue Hill had all we needed for groceries, and the Christmas store had the best prices on lobster!

Wonderful experience—wish we were still there

We loved our 10 days at the Flying Jib. Greatly enjoyed the house, pool, trail to the beach and the well appointed kitchen. The only challenge for us was slow Wi-Fi and we still needed to work. That said John and Barry worked with us and we managed to work and more importantly really love our visit. We wish we were there now. It was one of our best family get aways.

Family Vacation Headquarters

If you need a place for the whole extended family this place with its heated pool, glassed porches, and private location will fit the bill. If you cook as we do, the kitchen has all you need. Bring your clothes, thats it. It is all here from soup to nuts. It has the old cottage feel with modern amenities, three bathrooms, and room to spread out. The view of Flye Point from the master bedroom and upstairs porch is lovely and ever changing. There are a lot of places to visit in this area, but you tend to just hang out here and hit the pool.

Wonderful place for an extended family vacation. Charming home in a great location.

We had a great week with our two sons and their families. Seeing the ocean in the distance and walking to nearby islands at low tide each morning will always be memorable. Everyone enjoyed the heated pool. It was very clean as was the house. It was great to have linens and towels provided as well as paper products. The kitchen was very well equipped. We had everything we needed to cook and eat our lobster feast! The owner is gracious and quick to respond to any concerns.
