My family had the best time staying here. Location was great, cleanliness was top notch, and the space had everything we needed. We can't wait to come back.
We loved our long weekend at Paul’s place on Littlejohn Island. The apartment was perfect for just the two of us and we appreciated being able to borrow the bikes and kayaks. Highlight was sitting out on the deck enjoying the perfect sunsets!
This place was perfect for us. Very quiet, had everything we needed. Enjoyed using the kayaks to fish the local waters. Host was great. Had a great stay. Perfect spot for a couple to explore coastal Maine.
My 2 girl friends and I loved our stay on Little John Island. Close enough to Portland to pop in when we wanted, but lots of beautiful walking, swimming, and kayaking opportunities right in the backyard. Little John Island is truly a gem and we would love to come back!

Great place for a peaceful getaway but close enough to Portland to sightsee
The apartment was everything as promised. Very neat and clean and well appointed. Everything we needed was there on site. Great location. The owners were extremely cordial. I would highly recommend this location to anyone!
Amazing property! The photos don’t do it justice. As a former Yarmouth, ME resident, if you want an idyllic Maine living experience, this is it! There are gorgeous ocean views, sunsets and easy access to the shoreline. Yarmouth is a great spot if you’re planning day trips north or south. The guest space is quiet, clean and fully-stocked with all necessities. Owners are lovely and welcoming. I didn’t want to leave…highly recommend staying here!
Property was as listed. Furniture was comfortable. Kitchen had what we needed to cook-in. Location worked great for our short stay. Preserve close by provided nice hiking/walking with lovely bay views. Didn’t have much contact with hosts.

The Loft Apartment was very nice, we arrived late and missed the building, no exterior lights were on, it took us a minute to figure out we drove past the loft. The loft is very nice, bed has a very firm mattress, washer and dryer is a nice addition. I asked the owner about use of the kayaks and never got a response. The preserve was nice. Overall we were happy with our stay
Place is very nice, very clean. Area has lots of outdoor activities, and kayaks / bikes are available for use. Beautiful views. Would definitely recommend.
Lovely atmosphere. Loft was well appointed and comfortable. The yard and waterfront was beautiful. We enjoyed some nice hikes in the area, and location was an easy drive to Freeport and Portland.
The beautiful waterfront property was exactly what we desired. The cute upstairs suite had all the amenities we needed, including kitchen dishes and cutlery, washer/dryer, well stocked bathroom, games, movies, an outside deck with chairs, and Paul and Linda also allowed us to borrow their kayaks. The owners were generous with their time and responded to our questions promptly. They helped us know when the tides were appropriate to kayak and shared information about the island. Our visit was pleasant and we would definitely stay again. We've recommended it to our relatives who will visit next year. Outstanding stay in a lovely setting!
This was a perfect getaway for us. It is close to Portland, Freeport and plenty of sightseeing. It is also a great place to just relax and unplug. The island is small and charming and the nature preserve was lovely. The apartment is well equipped and the owners were responsive, helpful and friendly.
Located for easy access to the must-see locations on coastal Maine. Apartment is as pictured and described. Very cute and has everything for any length of stay. Go explore off island or stay put and enjoy the ocean scenery, the nice walks at the perserve and at the water. Near many restaurants, shopping and recreational areas. Hosts are very nice and allow for privacy on their property. Their Goldens are adorable, well-behaved, and very friendly if they decide to pay a visit. Highly recommend!
