Charming, Secluded, Island Getaway for family and friends!

This Down-front getaway has all the advantages to make your vacation the most relaxing it can be. Anyone looking for a peaceful and quiet retreat while still wanting access to urban amenities will love this place. This home is appealing during Maine’s lovely and relaxing carefree days of summer on an Island.
The house is only a block away from the crashing surf and the ocean breezes tickling your nostrils. The house is a five minute walk from the Casco Bay Ferry, Peaks Island Post Office, the Island’s general store and of course fabulous restaurants on and off the Island in Old Port
The Be Chill Cottage is only a block from the crashing surf. It offers leisurley strolls by the seashore, the salt air and sea roses. This lovely house has a master bedroom with a queen-size bed, a second bedroom with a double-bed and a fold out couch in the main living area. The kitchen has granite counter tops, new appliances and is updated with all the essential kitchen equipment for that perfect meal. Best of all it has the essential lobster pot! The living area is quite spacious and open throughout. It offers internet and cable TV. The front deck perfect to sit out and watch the sunsets. The back deck walks out into the grassy yard that has a gas barbecue, picnic table and Adirondack chairs for those unforgettable evenings on Peaks Island.
There is a warning however! We visited the Island and fell in love with it and the Portland area in general. We ended up moving to Peaks Island. Maybe this will happen to you!

    We had such a lovely stay at this charming cottage on Peak's Island! It's perfectly located, just a 7-minute walk from the ferry and downtown area, and another quick walk to the beach. The peaceful, quiet atmosphere was exactly what we needed, especially with the beautiful fall foliage. The cottage had everything we needed, including a full washer and dryer and a well-equipped kitchen. Highly recommend this cozy retreat!

    Can't say enough good things about our getaway. The VRBO property was well equipped and very comfortable. The scenery was beautiful, the locals are friendly and helpful and the restaurants were quite good - especially the Island Lobster Co! I would not hesitate t return and most likely will

    This was my families second time staying at the BeChill cottage and we were so happy to be back! The cottage is so clean and has everything you need in the kitchen, spacious bedrooms, and comfortable living room. We love the location! You can easily walk to the ferry, all the stores and restaurants and to the beautiful sandy beach! The whole island is beautiful and on a rainy day you can hop on the ferry to Portland and go to a great restaurant or do some shopping. Plus the owners are so kind and super responsive. Thank you for letting us stay at BeChill again - we would love to come back!

    We had a fantastic week on Peaks Island. Gary and Joanie were outstanding host. The cottage had everything that you needed for a wonderful stay on the island. It even had some really nice artwork throughout the cottage. The location downfront was ideal. We were a very short walk to go out to one of the restaurants or head over to Hannigans Market to stock up on groceries. It was also a short walk or golf cart ride to the seaward side of the island to take in breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. Yet it was also in a very quiet location to enjoy a night sitting on a porch or out in the backyard. We highly recommend the Be Chill cottage for your next family vacation on Peaks Island.

    My family and I had a great time on Peaks at this cottage. It was a perfect week for my older parents and me (three people). Peaks is wonderful--delicious ice cream, beaches, walks, and time just to relax. The cottage had everything we needed--was very comfortable and an ideal location (short walk from the ferry and a great beach). Gary and Joanie were wonderful hosts--very helpful and responsive. Can't recommend it enough--I hope we're back next summer!

    We stayed at Joanie and Gary’s cottage during June and most of July-it was such a fantastic time! We just loved everything-the cottage, the location and the proximity to be close to Portland to go for dinner but far enough away to feel out of town!
