About this property

Cozy Efficiency with Beautiful Ocean Views

PLEASE READ , Know Before You Go. FROM Maine.gov concerning Covid-19 responsibilities & testing before traveling here to Maine .

Thank you!

Mark, Kevin, & Shirley

Testing as an Alternative to Quarantine

Visitors travel to Maine to enjoy our scenery, our outdoors, our restaurants, and our stores. They neither want to quarantine upon arrival nor want to risk their own health when venturing out in places with visitors from across the nation. The same holds true for people with second homes in Maine or Mainers whose work takes them out of state for periods of time.

Under Keep Maine Healthy,

The State will allow adults who obtain and receive a negative COVID-19 test from a specimen taken no longer than 72 hours prior to arrival to forgo the 14-day quarantine upon arrival in Maine. This test indicates that, even when coming from areas with a higher prevalence of the disease than Maine’s, such visitors are unlikely to have COVID-19 and to spread it to Maine residents and other visitors. Individuals may be tested in Maine, but they must quarantine while awaiting the results.
Maine is strongly urging visitors to “Know Before You Go,” and be tested and receive results in their home state before traveling to Maine, which will allow them to take appropriate action depending on the result. Websites like Get Tested COVID-19 show local testing options nationwide.
The State will exempt residents of New Hampshire and Vermont from the testing and 14-day quarantine requirement altogether, effective immediately for travel and effective June 12 for stays in lodging establishments. When adjusted for population, the prevalence of active cases of COVID-19 in these states is similar to that in Maine. There is no other state with as low a prevalence of COVID-19 within a 12-hour drive. The State will continue to evaluate possible additional exemptions based on trends in other states.
People who are not Maine, New Hampshire or Vermont residents must complete a Certificate of Compliance form indicating they have received a negative COVID-19 test result, that they will quarantine in Maine for 14 days, or that they have already completed their quarantine in Maine.
This Certificate of Compliance must be provided to check-in at all Maine lodging, campgrounds, seasonal rentals, and other commercial lodging, such as Airbnb. Visitors may be asked to furnish proof of the negative test result upon request.
This will become effective June 26, when lodging establishments may begin serving residents outside of Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont. Signing a compliance form in order to stay in lodging establishments is also a policy employed by both the States of New Hampshire and Vermont.
The Department of Economic and Community Development will work closely with lodging establishments to communicate the State’s new alternative to quarantine through reservations, which must be taken this summer, and work to advance the message of “Know Before You Go” urging people to be tested at their point of origin through reminders to guests.
The State’s newly-announced standing order –which allows for most individuals in Maine with elevated risk of exposure to get tested without an order from their own primary care provider – coupled with enhanced testing capacity in July resulting from an agreement with IDEXX, will support testing of tourism workers in Maine and serve as a back-up option for tourists who cannot be tested at home and commit to quarantining in Maine while awaiting results.



NOW... about the property & surrounding area!

Sheacliff resides here on Lowell’s Cove and the mouth of the Atlantic Ocean. The rental property is a one room one bath over the garage studio apartment . It has a kitchen, a deluxe queen bed and a queen sofa bed to sleep four comfortably. There are beautiful southerly views of Lowells Cove & the Atlantic Ocean. Let the lapping of the waves lull you to sleep as you dream of your next days adventures in Maine.

Imagine waking in the morning to the sound of seagulls cawing, birds chirping and flying about, & butterflies fluttering from garden to garden. Take your cup of coffee and go downstairs to your patio to see it all before your eyes and watch the morning sun's rays dancing on Lowell's Cove.

Or perhaps you might feel like refreshing morning walk, or bike ride to Bailey Island for a delicious breakfast at the quaint Giant Stairs restaurant...note to self ''must have The Giant Stairs reuben and amazing onion rings...delish!!'' Or right next store 'B.I.G.S.' (Bailey Island General Store) for some great breakfast sandwiches, pancakes etc., & all your immediate shopping needs. Next stop, Landsend, a tourist favorite gift shop at the end of Bailey's Island, with a cozy beach and plentifully y of rocks for climbing all while enjoying the beautiful views of nearby islands.

Next stop visit the home of world famous L.L Bean in Freeport , home of the original outlet stores, and just a thirty minute scenic ride from your island getaway! Freeport is a beautiful coastal Maine village with over 200 upscale outlets, designer shops, eclectic boutiques, great restaurants, casual cafes, & numerous outdoor adventures. L.L. Bean also offers guided kayak tours for some fun in the sun! Enjoy an authentic Maine experience, just a short drive north from Boston, and only 15 minutes north of Portland.

Speaking of fun in the sun how about grabbing the gang for a picnic or BBQ at Reid State Park. Today, thousands of visitors enjoy the park's long, wide sand beaches like Mile and Half Mile, which are rare in Maine. Enjoyed as a recreational resource, the beaches are also essential nesting areas for endangered least terns and piping plovers and resting and feeding areas for other shorebirds. Rarer than beaches along Maine's coast are large sand dunes, like those at Reid. From the top of Griffith Head, a rocky headland overlooking the park,you can view sweeping seascapes and spot the lighthouses on Seguin Island, The Cuckolds, and Hendricks Head. You can also see several islands, including: Damariscove, a thriving fishing community in Colonial times.

Your vacation in Maine wouldn't be complete without a visit to Boothbay Harbour.

A mere forty-one miles from Orr's Island, a visit to this region can be whatever you want it to be: a peaceful time to refresh your soul, an active time boating, fishing, hiking, playing golf and tennis, or a family adventure. Explore quiet coves, rocky shores, meandering country roads, and beautiful lighthouses. The restaurants are plentiful and varied, and the food is delicious. The salt air isn't the only thing that's refreshing. Explore one of more than a dozen nature trails, try out there world class golf course, or experience some of the best sea kayaking available anywhere. There harbor bustles with fishing vessels and pleasure craft in equal numbers, and nothing beats the sight of the schooners heading in from the afternoon trip with their sails bathed in the rosy light of a spectacular sunset - unless of course you're lucky enough to be on board! Note to self...''Must go on a Whale Watching tour!''

Wherever you go whatever you do, perhaps its just grabbing a good book a glass of lemonade & heading down to the cove to search for sea glass. You needn't go far to immerse yourself in the beauty & pleasures of Maine here at you Orr's island getaway!
