Little Harbor – A True Maine Escape

Nestled on the pristine shores of Bailey Island, this cozy yet rustic oceanfront cottage offers the ultimate Maine experience. Surrounded by bold surf and spectacular views from every window, the cottage overlooks what was once called the most spectacular view in North America.

To the east and south, you’ll find sweeping open ocean vistas of Casco Bay, while to the west, the charm of Little Harbor unfolds and Ragged Island is justbeyond the horizon. Whether you're dining inside, sunbathing on the spacious deck, or simply relaxing as the waves crash on the rocks below, the serene surroundings promise a deeply restful retreat.

The cottage comfortably sleeps four, with close proximity to scenic walking trails and public beaches. It’s just 25 minutes from the Maine State Music Theatre at Bowdoin College, local art galleries, and the Mere Creek Golf Club. For adventure seekers, there are charter fishing trips, kayak rentals, whale watching, and Casco Bay tours nearby.

Whether you choose to unwind on the deck or explore the beauty of the area, you’ll be captivated by the rolling waves, soothing surf, and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. For those who love Maine, or those experiencing it for the first time, this cottage offers a truly unforgettable escape.

Come experience the magic of the rockbound coast of Maine – it doesn’t get any better than this.

    The view is what you pay for and that’s it. And it is an amazing view. But one I won’t see from this cottage ever again. It would be nice if the owners used the rental money they make to update all of the furniture, the couch and chair are both tiny and unbelievably uncomfortable, beds were AWEFUL. I’ve slept in more comfortable beds in cheap hotels. My husband couldn’t even sleep in the beds so he tried the pull out twin bed from the couch. It also was extremely uncomfortable AND broken. We rented in October. Our first day on arrival was cold and rainy. They had a tiny room heater plugged in when we got there. That did pretty much nothing! A woodstove that we could have used to warm up the cottage but no supplies to do so. We purchased that stuff at the closest Walmart the next day so we could at least be warm at this crappy uncomfortable cottage. The bathroom shower stall is horrid. Tiny, old, stained and when you showered you stood in 3-4 inches of water by the time you're done. After complaining we were offered a refund on a portion of the cost. I would never recommend this rental to a single person. We should have gotten a full refund.

    The place was a perfect little haven. Right on the rocks surrounded by beautiful views on 2 sides. My favorite spot was out on the deck watching the distant lobster boats check their traps.
