Beautiful gardens and trees surround the property, offering great privacy, while being within walking distance to all Bailey Island has to offer. Inside you'll find a well appointed kitchen with everything you'll need to prepare a delicious Maine meal, a beautiful dining room area with two sliding glass doors opening to the deck, and a spacious living room with comfortable furnishings and panoramic ocean view.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is in a great location on Baileys Island and is decorated so you feel comfortable and right at home. There was a lot of outdoor seating for us to watch the water/sunset. The kitchen has everything you will need. It is also really simple to contact management since they text you and are available for any questions. The only downside is if you stay in the hotter months, there is no AC, but they do have fans throughout. I would definitely stay here again! ##### Austina F. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer T. 23 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful view, clean and quiet Such a charming property! The house was super clean, quiet, and felt very private....and the view was amazing! It was mid-July and no AC was needed because of the lovely breeze. There are fans available at the property if needed, but we didn't need them. We were able to launch our paddle boards right from the property at high tide. The house was well equipped - had everything we needed.....we even used the Thyme in the herb garden. ##### Jennifer T.

The setting is wonderful right on the water which create a great canvas for nightly sunsets. Cooks, Morse's and the Giant Stairs restaurants are within walking distance, including the Bailey Island Grocery (BIG's) which serves food from their grill. It is a must to experience BIG's for breakfast and their blueberry pancakes, make sure to order just one because they cover an entire plate...... Great overall experience and the owners have certainly put much thought and care into the property. ##### Paul G.
