Cottage for Rent
HOME DEER ISLE LINKS RENTAL CONTACT INFO
|
This vacation rental home is located on Deer Isle, Maine. Deer Isle is a large
island located along the eastern edge of Penobscot Bay. The weather is
usually much cooler than inland. It is one and a half hours drive from Bangor, six
hours from Boston. Isle au Haut, part of Acadia National Park, can be
reached by boat from Stonington. The island is rural, but is lively in the
summer. There is an active art scene, and a few good restaurants. The famous
Opera House has varied programs in the summer, and the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts hosts workshops, exhibitions, and community programs. See below for more information about the rental property, nick-named Park Place. |

The house is adjacent to the driveway, in woods, about two blocks from the

three bedrooms, one with twin beds, one with a queen bed, and one with a queen and bunks. The bathroom

The kitchen is equipped with microwave, toaster, coffee maker, pots and

The living room has a wood stove, couch and four easy chairs, excellent reading lights, TV, VCR, family games, books (a family full of librarians!), flashlights, candles, maps on the walls, etc. The dining area has 6-8 chairs.

The deck at Park Place |
| There is access to the shore, which is visible through the trees, by a path through the woods. There are steps for access to the sheltered swimming, when the tide is in. One can walk along the gravel and rocky shore when the tide is out. Boats can also be moored in the cove. We have rented kayaks, and explored Long Cove, which is sheltered from the open ocean. The cove is very quiet and you can see the osprey nest on the opposite point. There are no houses visible from Park Place, but others may be using the parking area for a house further down the path. This house has been a family vacation house, and is fully equipped for summer fun. The woods are quiet and restful and the view is of the woods and the cove through the trees. | |
