Reviews for this vacation home rental in Islesboro Island, Maine
Seclusive Beauty, September 8, 2008 amenities. We walked, biked, kayaked, went to Hutchinson Island, grilled, played horseshoes, watched the Red Sox & movies on tv, and did not miss a ferry. On the mainland we went to the Andrew Wyeth musuem and shopped the Main Dog in Camden. We sailed on the Olad which is such a beautiful boat. Our dog enjoyed all the attention that he got on our
travels and appreciated not being sent off to "camp" for our
vacation. Thank you for your concern for us and for all the
information that you provided to us. The information definitely assisted us. We greatly enjoyed our visited to your house and want to thank you for sharing it with us.
My best wishes, M. from state of Georgia 2007
The weather was such that we could eat on the porch several nights, which was thoroughly delightful. And of course you even have the wire and baby gates around the porch so that we did
not have to worry about our Yorkie. I particularly enjoyed
all the walking I could do right out your front door and feel as if I were all alone in a virgin forest. I just loved
the trees. We tried out all of your sports equipment too--
horseshoes, bikes, kayaks. We did go back to the mainland
two days, and one of those days we went for a short sail.
Our only problem was that we did not have enough time!
Will you be planning to rent your place next year? If so, we
would love to come back.
Thank you so very much for sharing your special space with us. Nancy 2007
Did miss ______'s street lights when they left, as it made the night driveway walks with the dogs easier. Thanks so much for sharing this special spot with us.

beauty everywhere you look -- but this gorgeous view & lovely home trumps all. Thank you for opening your home - toys & all! to us!
The kayaks were just so much fun, the wind storm was thrilling to watch & we've picked up every red & yellow leaf between here & Hutchins Island for leaf projects. Lobster, late nights, & lovely lovely views -- hate to leave this beautiful house & perfect spot. Tom & Kathy G. and all! Oct. 2006
Islesboro. We had a wonderful week, and your home
was the perfect spot for us. We enjoyed hours on
the deck, our children loved the toys, and all of us slept so comfortably each night. Thank you for
sharing it with us, and we hope to rent it again
next year! Fondly, Jerry & Sarah P.
this year, especially a treat for us now, since we
lost our own home to Hurricane Katrina. It was such a comfort to be somewhere familiar and so very beautiful. We loved the kayaks and enjoyed our paddling in the cove. One evening as we returned from Dark Harbor we saw a ringneck pheasant by the lupines at the Main Rd, then we saw a deer in the blueberry meadow, and a jack rabbit on the path to the house! Islesboro is such a refreshing place, and the views from your home are a spectacular wonder. Dashka & Larry L., New Orleans, LA June, 2006
the water. The peacefulness of the island was just
the right solution to our family sadness with our
dad's passing in June. Thanks so much for making it the right setting for all of us - we hope to return! Hope and Art S. July 2006
