Photos and Description of this Bailey Island holiday - 3 BR, 3 BA, sleeper sofa, sleeps 8

Built in the 19th century by a fisherman, this charming home overlooks one of the most photographed coves in Maine. In the heart of a small town, you can: • Watch the lobster boats coming and going all day long. Have cocktails on the deck overlooking Mackerel cove, Lowell cove and Merriconeag Sound while the sunset casts its glow on the water. • Walk to the ocean and watch the crashing surf. • Enjoy a chowder supper at the village church down the street. • Shop for local art at the gallery across the street. • Walk down to the dock to pick your own lobsters. • Pick blueberries, raspberries or rhubarb from your own backyard. • Walk to the general store for breakfast with the fishermen. The house is cozy but free-flowing, so you’ll never get cabin fever, but Brunswick and Bath are nearby should you develop a yen for “city life.”

Review Submitted: November 7, 2006 Date of Stay: November 2006
All we expected was a charming cottage for a quick
get-a-way. We went for just a night and ended up
staying for over a week! You will not believe the
views! This must be the most beloved cove view in
the whole state. By the way, we had Lobsters about
14 different ways during our stay, but the best way
was cold leftovers in cocktail sauce on the
deck..because who could leave the view!! Our
daughter Ruth just would not leave the tire swing
on MACKEREL COVE and we went to the beach over
the bridge nearly every day. Check out the Giant
Steps too! Now our daughter says this is her COVE
forever...so I guess we are going to be regulars.
Next time maybe we will go for a week and end up
staying a month. At least we still have the painting
we bought at the gallery across the street -- the
one that is also the old charming library hall.
