    Tim was great to deal with. He made an emergency call to peaks island fuel company, and quickly resolved an issue at the start of Memorial Day weekend. We had a great time

    Wonderful cottage, Tim was super responsive when I had any questions, recieved a welcome letter months ahead of time with all kinds of useful tips about the ferry/navigating the island/ checkout/ sheet rental etc. Tip: in off season the car ferry doesn't run after 530pm mondays/Tuesdays so plan accordingly! There was baby gates for the stairs, Legos, childrens books, a highchair, playpen, games, books. The cottage is thoughtfully and comfortably decorated with lots of cozy nooks for its size but simple enough that I didn't have to worry about my 1 and 3 yr olds constantly knocking something over. Highly recommend for families and enjoyed our stay! The grocery store closes at 6 but had a great selection and really good pizza (Thursday night deals) The cottage doesn't have a sea view but is very conveniently located. The bathroom is actually a comfortable size w a nice warm shower and functional curtain. Neighbors were very quiet while we were there. Renting beach towels with a local business Tim connected us to was very simple/straight forward. Would stay again:)

    Had to book a quick two night stay in the Portland Area and found this great little cottage. Absolutely charming. Very comfortable beds and cozy comforters. Can't beat the location. Only one suggestion -- first night was pretty cold for early October and the space heaters took a while to warm up the place. So keep an eye on the overnight temps when you pack. That said, we had a wonderful stay.

    We traveled to Peaks Island for a wedding so really only used the home to sleep and shower. Beds were comfortable and it was clean. It’s an older home without a lot of frills but worked well for what we needed. Communication with the host was great so we knew exactly what to expect.

    Absolutely incredible! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect vacation home, location or experience. Tim was so easy to communicate with and made sure that everything was in order for our stay. Definitely will be coming back!

    Great location (quiet but close to everything). Very comfortable and relaxing spot with an excellent porch, there is even a peek of blue from the rocking chair. Hosts were super communicative and helpful!

    I've been to Portland once before. Lots of hustle and bustle and things to do and eat and buy and that's great, but just a short ferry ride away is the relative seclusion and tranquility of Peaks island, and I enjoyed that much more. The cabin, like many others on the island, is a seasonal dwelling. It's campy, simple, slightly set back in time, but also very comfortable and well furnished. The kitchen has everything for home cooking. We especially liked the closed in porch. Great dining spot for 2. The island itself is all the destination we needed. Walk the coastlines; picnic point and the seaside were great rocky shores to explore. Everywhere you look on the island, people seem to share a flare for landscaping. All the island's dining, shopping, etc is in on one strip at the front side (ferry side) of the island. Once we got there, we had no reason or desire to leave.

    This rustic, spacious cottage was very comfortable and centered close to the shore, town and nestled privately. The kitchen/dining room is lovely and nostalgic. The living area is pretty, simple and comfortable as are both front and back decks. The master bed is very comfortable and upstairs overall quite pleasant. We had a lovely stay!
