Uniquely set on its own peninsula, rests this classic Maine Cottage offering meticulously maintained grounds, a ramp and float for easy water access, and a beautiful in-ground waterside pool for hours of fun for adults and kids alike! Expansive lawns, gardens, and a wrap-around porch offer endless opportunities for gathering with family and friends to enjoy the ocean view and salty air.

 Inside the cottage, you'll open the door to a large entry way with views past the dining and living room to a lovely ocean view. To the left of the entry way is a kitchen with all you need to cook a delicious meal with family and friends and there is a lovely, sunlit sitting area for company. Past the kitchen, is a large dining and living area with seating for 10 and down one level is another great spot for all to gather. Sliding glass doors line the living areas, opening to an expansive wrap-around porch. Imagine a beautiful, sunny summer morning with all the doors open, welcoming the sea breeze throughout the house, and stepping outside to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea listening to the birds sing and the kayakers and lobster boats pass by. Then, after breakfast, jumping in the refreshing inground pool or launching your kayaks, and spending the day exploring, swimming, and relaxing by the sea.

Wonderfully located in Cundy's Harbor, you'll love exploring this sweet fishing village while being just 10 minutes from Brunswick for groceries, shopping, restaurants, and more. Just down the road, is Holbrook's Wharf & Grill and Watson's General Store for a delicious meal and shopping. 

Come enjoy all Island Time has to offer and we promise this remarkable home will beckon you back for years to come!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed for four nights and had such a lovely time. Everyone at mainestay vacations was very kind and attentive. The check in and check out process was super easy as well. The house is gorgeous as well as the views. Lots of coastal new england charm. The house is also very spacious for large gatherings! My husband and I had some trouble with the king bed being pretty uncomfortable, but the hosts offered to reimburse us for purchasing a mattress pad for it which was very kind and really improved our sleep! The rest of the beds were comfortable except that one. Cleanliness in most areas was great except for the kitchen unfortunately. The only oven mitts in the kitchen were covered in dog hair, which is odd because we didn’t see dog hair anywhere else. There was also a used straw in one of the drawers and some dirty silverware along with things from other guests that maybe should’ve been tossed out. It wasn’t too bad but it could’ve been cleaner, everywhere else was great! It wouldn’t deter me from booking again! The serenity of the property is the main draw. It’s quiet and tucked away without being too far from town, and the views are stunning.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our family's second visit to Island Time, and we were thrilled to be back. With an extended family in tow, we had ample space, and plenty of recreational activities right at the property. We rented from SeaSpray Kayaking, and they were terrific as they deliver right to the house. We kayaked, paddleboarded, and even did a bit of unsuccessful fishing. There was also swimming in the pool and relaxing and reading on the many porches. Island Time is also close to hiking trails, and it is a quick drive to Brunswick for any needed supplies. We loved our stay, and we hope to return in 2026.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family enjoyed our 2nd stay at Island Time and already looking ahead to next year! The amazing water views from just about every single room are beautiful! The sprawling lawn & lovely landscaping offer such beauty topping off the total experience. The house is very spacious and so nicely decorated . We rented kayaks from Seaspray Kayaks , swam in the pool, used the grill for many of our meals (kitchen is well stocked w/all pots , pans & utensils needed). Just a super home & can’t wait to return! Thank you Island Time!
