About this property

Enjoy the full island experience at this classic home off the rugged Maine coast. The house has 3 bedrooms with room to sleep 6, and a pull out couch in the living room. With 1.5 bathrooms, a large sunroom, open dining and living room and washer/dryer in the basement, there is plenty of space and amenities for your summer getaway. Sit on the covered front porch and catch up on your summer reading list.

This house is located off the coast of Mt. Desert Island and is only accessible by ferry.

You're on island time. Sitting on the porch taking in the views, reading a book on a rainy day, spending quality time with family and friends, walking down to the dock for a sunset, beach combing for sea glass, or enjoying a fresh caught lobster dinner in the dining room are some of the many unforgettable experiences you can have out here.

Fantastic (again)!

I had a wonderful stay at this home. The views are wonderful, the house is equipped with everything you need and is kept very clean and tidy. My favorite thing during this stay was the fantastic porch. It's a great place just to sit and look at the water or read...they have a diverse array of books with every genre covered). The owners are very responsive and always helpful.

Gorgeous Island, Attentive Hosts,

I wasn't surprised to love my stay since I've been going to Cranberry Island all my life and have known the owners for ages. The house is charming with a gorgeous lawn and huge deck. On chilly nights the heating system made the whole house very cozy. The owners are incredibly responsive and helpful.

About the host

Hosted by Brendon Westphal

My name is Brendon and I am excited to offer our house for your vacation or family getaway. Our family has owned and maintained this home for 50 years.

Why they chose this property

This home can accommodate a large family quite well or two small families/couples. It's a lovely spot to remote work or plan outdoorsy activities. It's an especially good fit for families who are a bit more adventurous and can plan their own activities. This home also offers the opportunity to have the Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park experience only a short ferry ride away, at a significant discount to renting on Mt. Desert Island. Many families have enjoyed staying here and using the ferry to make day trips to MDI.
