Eggemoggin Reach is home to some of the most ardent sailors around. From the front yard, you can watch the yatchs as well as nesting osprey, bald eagles, the occasional seal, and many sea birds. Our backyard is often visited by pileated woodpeckers. Rental of this cozy, all inclusive apartment includes use of 300+ ft of private ocean frontage, a huge front yard with 2 picnic areas, charcoal grill, a semi-private dock, 2 ocean kayaks, a row boat, and 2 ocean kayaks. A short kayak ride away, you can watch starfish as they move about on the rocks under the crystal clear water. Blue mussels can be gathered from the rocks in the cove and cooked in the well-equipped kitchen of the apartment. There are lobsters, crab meat, clams and fish from local fishermen. There are also many restaurants and shops in the area. Few properties offer as continual parade of sailboats, fishing boats and schooners passing the front yard as this one!


The perfect place: This mother-in-law apartment is the perfect place to forget the world and its stresses. As you sip coffee on the balcony, reading your favorite book or paper, you can hear the sea gulls on the beach and the wind in the trees.
If you prefer, you can take your morning coffee out to the benches at the end of the pier and watch the sunrise. Any time of day, the views and peace are rejuvenating and relaxing.

Don't like to relax Paddle a kayak or row the boat around Stave Island or along the shore of Eggemoggin Reach. Be sure to watch for the starfish on the rocks at the point of Stave Island and elsewhere. Most couples who stay for a week, wish they could stay for two.

The perfect island: Little Deer Isle and Deer Isle are actually two islands joined by a causeway. The communities are marvelous. You have the opportunity to watch fishermen on the job and arts of all types. The arts are such an important part of the island community that it was easy to raise private dollars to add a performing arts theater to the new elementary school. The Reach Center for the Arts is a state of the art auditorium and is used by the school and the community to produce and provide live performances of all types. It is fun to see your local doctor, child, or fisherman performing in such productions as 'Little Orphan Annie.' At least four full plays are performed every year along with many music venues including jazz. The Stonington Opera House also provides nightly entertainment through movies, plays, and performances of all types. This year, the Opera House and the Reach Auditorium have received a Kennedy Center for the Arts grant to further expand their performances and offerings.

Other offerings: Haystack School of Art, Seamark School, and several local artists offer classes in glass blowing, metal sculpture, painting, pottery, etc., etc. Authors provide book readings, individuals from around the world provide lectures and learning opportunities, Ocean Adventures and others offer boat and kayak rentals, and there are at least six walking trails provided by various groups and individuals. There is absolutely no opportunity to come to this area and be bored.

    I had a wonderful and very peaceful stay. The place was clean and conveniently located next to RT 15 making it easy to take day trips to Fort Knox or Bar Harbor. It is very quiet so if you want to just read and get away from your daily life then this is the place. The host was nice and was available if I needed anything. Highly recommend this place.

    The owner was fantastic! Checked in on me to ask me how my stay was going, sat and chatted for a bit. Great location, enjoyed the morning sunrises, watching the deer, sitting on the deck and relaxing. I would definitely go back.

    This ideally located property was amazing! Was able to watch sunrise and Sunset on the pier and cook lobster in the kitchen with the utensils there. Sharon was great and met us upon arrival. Can’t wait to go back.

    We were greeted by the owner upon arrival and that made us feel welcomed. She also let us know about all the rain they had had recently and to wear old shoes that could get muddy if we wanted to walk down to the pier. 3 of many highlights for us were: seeing deer in the evening, awakening to unbelievable sunrises and having the deck to sit on and relax while enjoying a beverage or playing a game.

    The apartment was comfortable and cozy and Sharon was a great host and was sincerely genuine in making sure we had all we needed. Pictures were slightly off. It is an ocean front property but beach was a walk thru tall grass and muddy areas during high tide so honestly only accessible during low tide. Sharon did warn us to expect it though. There’s a long pier out to the water and a beach to sit at and relax! We had fun exploring this island. The kitchen was well stocked and appreciated a variety of spices and condiments. The lobster utensils could be updated. We made them work but it took longer than it should have to get them cracked. Grill is charcoal and we couldn’t get it to go above 300 degrees. It could have been us though since we’re not use to the charcoal grill nor are we very handy! LolIt’s a great place for couples. Very serene and private.

    Wonderful location and comfortable apartment. Missed the availability of the rowboat but was promised it would be available upon our return. The only nuisance was the low water pressure in the kitchen and shower but overall that was minor compared to our enjoyment and overall comfort. We would gladly return.
