In close proximity to several beaches, preserves and walking trails.

The space
Inviting and eclectic artists cottage filled with unique treasures. Two bedrooms with queen size latex mattresses. Small bedroom with twin bed.
Funky but comfortable is the name of the game here.
Please note that two of the bedrooms and the only bathroom are on the second floor. Stairs are a bit steep but nothing too extreme.
This is my home and I do ask that you be respectful of the space.
In addition to the house there is a garage on the property. I do come by often to access tools and such for my gardening business but I will not bother you. I will also stop by to tend the garden periodically.
Another note is that cats do live in this house. They are very sweet but very shy and there’s a good chance you may not see them. I do ask that guests keep their bowls full of food.
My house is located close to beaches but is not on the water.
Guest access
Guests have access to the entire space.
Bring bikes, kayaks, small sailboats, lawn games
Check out kayak and SUP rentals at Ducktrap Kayak

Other things to note
The ferry is quite busy in the summer and reservations are not needed but are a good idea, especially if arriving on an afternoon boat. $20 for a reservation plus your ferry fare.
Be aware that you are coming to an island without restaurants and only two small stores. Stock up on necessities before you come. There is an island market (closed on Sunday) and a general store on the north end of the island (Sunday 10-2).Support of our local stores is appreciated.
There is a cafe at the Islesboro Community Center and The Dark Harbor Shop has ice cream, sandwiches and gifts. At the ferry you will find The Sandcastle Grill.
There are many different walking trails sponsored by the Islesboro Island Trust.
Take sailing lessons at Big Tree Boating.(season ends August 18) Bring your kayak or canoe and paddle around the island.
You'll be staying in someone's home, so please treat it with care and respect.

Additional rules
