About this house rental

Please note, I am not yet accept bookings for 2027.
Beautiful, private oceanfront house on 12 wooded acres on Islesboro Island, Maine. Islesboro is a 20 minute ferry ride from Lincolnville, a few miles north of Camden. It is an unspoiled, quiet place. The nearby towns on the mainland are some of the prettiest on the coast.
The house has four bedrooms: two queen beds, one full bed, and a twin bed up in a tower; as well as a sun porch with a twin daybed. There is a full kitchen, satellite Smart TV, very good wifi (the island has its own municipal broadband), fireplace, washer and dryer, charcoal grill. The property has 840 feet of private shoreline, with mussels to find at low-tide, if you are diligent. There is a vegetable and flower garden that may produce well into the fall.
New and old renters take note! As of May 2024, the house has air conditioning in the three main bedrooms, large bathroom and living room, kitchen and dining area in the form of split system heat pumps.
The island and the house are low-key. Although there are many activities on the island in the summer -- public beaches, trails, little nature walks for children, community center activities, opportunities for sailing lessons, etc. -- time spent there is largely about relaxing, ambling around, thinking about what to make for dinner, wandering to the shore and back, looking at the sky and water. The island is not "developed"; there are a handful of wonderful little stores, a farmers' market and a cafe open in summertime and there are two grocery stores and a library, but that is about it. It is an ideal place to unwind and be away.
This is a whole-house, private rental. Dogs are welcome and the property and island in general is a paradise for them.

This was an incredible experience. The house is accurately represented and charming to boot. It was well designed and obviously well built ala you can tell someone created this house out of love. As someone that loves to cook, the kitchen was a dream. Given the lack of restaurants on the island, you will be cooking. This kitchen will have all you need. And the Views!! If you can go to the tower to see the sunrise . You will not be disappointed

We loved our four-day stay at Mary's beautiful home on the island. To say the house is pet friendly is a huge understatement. Our one-year old pup adored the house, property, and island, as did we. The home is just as everyone stated, spectacularly clean, so interestingly decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen has everything, including spices and every pan, pot and utensil you might need. The large bathroom has shampoos and soaps and toiletries in case you forgot something. The property is beautiful and peaceful. We walked the beach out front, which even in early April was awesome. The sunrises are gorgeous. We never made it to the point for sunsets because it would get cloudy, late in the day. We definitely want to return. I feel better about the ferry now that I have taken it. Lining up is odd but the people are super friendly and helpful. Thank you Mary and thank you to your caretaker and housekeeper. We have rented MANY houses and have never stayed at a place so well cared for.
