This location provides the absolute best that Stonington/Deer Isle has to offer. The cottage is perched on the typical pink granite ledges that the island is known for but also meet steps away from its own small sandy beach, which is quite unusual for the island. The view across Penobscot Bay toward North Haven and Vinal Haven is amazing. We saw lobster boats, schooners, and even an otter hopping along the rocks. There are other houses nearby but it's quiet. It's a 3 minute drive or 15 minute walk to the best-stocked grocery store on the island, and a short drive into Stonington for coffee at 44 North or dinner at Fin & Fern (those are our favorites). Easy drive to fun activities and also a great place to just hang out.
The cottage itself is not fancy but provides all the basics--lots of clean towels, beach towels, kitchen stuff (including microwave, toaster, and coffee maker. Brand new stove! The living room is large, comfy, and lovely with many windows to open for a fresh sea breeze. Bedrooms are a tad small, and since we came with four adults, it might have been nice to have a second real bathroom. Do be warned that stairs to the second floor are steep and narrow. Otherwise, this was a great choice for us.

We've been coming up to Deer Isle/Stonington each summer for more than 25 years, but had not stayed at Rockmere previously. We had a great week. The cabin is cozy though it worked for five adults and a small dog very well, well appointed, and the views are amazing! Sitting in the living room looking out on the water gave us the feeling on being ON the water. Really amazing. Even on a hot day just a few miles inland, everything was quite cool at Rockmere. We'll certainly return!

We were very pleased with our vacation at Rockmere last July. The facilities where great.
