Sea Glass House was everything we hoped for and more. From the time we booked our visit, Sam was an exceptionally helpful host. We planned a week on Peaks Island to celebrate a graduation, a birthday, an anniversary and a reunion of family members separated by an ocean in recent years. We couldn’t have chosen a more spectacular location or inviting cottage for our special vacation. We arrived after dark our first night, delighted to find the house as beautiful and comfortable as advertised. The next morning, as we made our way outside to the picnic table and chairs facing an unobstructed view of the ocean, we were awe struck by the magnificence of the sea, sky, and shore stretching out before us. Every day we found new wonders to appreciate—the schedule of the tides, working lobster boats and ships, cormorants fishing from the rocks, finding sea glass at low tide, walking all the way around the island shore and finding short cuts to the shops and ferry through shady lanes past lovely inland homes. We made our own meals and were pleased to find everything we needed in the kitchen. When I asked if there were cake pans at the house, for the birthday, our hosts ordered some sent to the house. We did leave the island to explore Portland and to take a ferry cruise, both extremely enjoyable, but it was Sea Glass House and Spar Cove, and our hosts, that made our vacation one none of us will every forget.
