Further details for this holiday rental in South Bristol, USA

The Cottage: Our summer cottage is relaxing, convenient and comfortable. The first floor features an open living plan allowing easy movement from kitchen to dining area to the living room. The first floor bathroom is off the living room and also accessible from the downstairs bedroom. The upstairs is simple yet efficient. The bedrooms open right off the hall with the bathroom at the end. Windows abound allowing light and breezes to move through. The cottage furnishings are unfussy to meet the demands of summer vacations.

McFarland's Cove: McFarland's Cove is a small community of family and friends who have been coming to the area for generations. The same families have owned summer camps and cottages in the cove since the 1940s. Cove residents go out of their way to extend a warm and friendly welcome to newcomers. The front cove looks out on Witch Island, an uninhabited spot owned by Maine Audubon. It makes a perfect destination for a boat ride. Pack a picnic and set out to the island for an easy hike and some bird watching. Beyond Witch Island is John's Bay emptying into the Atlantic.

Very Nice Cottage

Arlo Findlay, Ohio
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This is a very nice cottage! Nicely furnished and lots of room, everything you will need for your stay. Pretty remote location, I had two teenagers who got bored, but that's normal. Very picturesque area and lots of nature things to do. Small towns nearby provide many restaurants and shopping. It had been a very rainy Summer before we arrived, LOTS of mosquitoes was the only real downfall, would definetly recommend this cottage though.
