From the very first glimpse of the ocean shimmering beyond the porch, we knew our stay on Bailey Island would be unforgettable. This breathtaking New England home felt like a fairytale. The house was beautifully maintained, extremely spacious, cozy, and full of charm, but the true highlight was the incredible front porch and sun deck.We spent hours every day outside—drinking coffee in the morning as lobster boats quietly rolled through the cove, watching the tide change, and ending each evening with a beverage and breathtaking sunsets. It was the perfect place to slow down and soak in everything that makes coastal Maine so special. My mom even joked that it looked like we were staying at the Kennedy residence when she FaceTimed her grandkids.Traveling with two young children can be a challenge, but this home made it effortless and joyful. Our son beamed as he ran from window to window shouting “OCEAN!”, and the spacious yard gave us all plenty of room to play, and grill dinner while soaking in the peaceful views.The location was wonderful, offering the peaceful charm of Bailey Island while still being close to everything we wanted to see and do. One of my favorite memories was when the tide rolled out, we would take our son to explore tide pools and find hermit crabs—moments we’ll never forget.We left already talking about when we can come back—not just to Bailey Island, but to this special home.
