Übrigens gibt es auch einen Festnetzanschluss. Um das Ganze abzurunden, werden Sie dort einige außergewöhnliche Menschen treffen, sowohl das ganze Jahr über als auch im Sommer, die meiner Meinung nach einer der Hauptgründe sind, warum die Menschen immer wieder kommen.

Jan 2016We have stayed in the summer and winter months. Every comfort of home, and extremely well equipped kitchen, plus tasteful furnishing and view of the ocean from all the bedrooms and the spacious kitchen/dining/living area. Canoe available for use on the pond (not in winter), close to all the great hikes. Wonderful hosts with attentive caretaker.

Sep 2013We chose Gerardine and Grady's place at Sheep Thief Gulch based on the photographs and description they'd posted. We were immediately drawn to the ocean view on the east side of the house, seen through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows that run most of its length, and the beautiful kitchen. We loved our days on IaH: we spent hours on the house’s seaside deck, enjoying the coastal breeze, noting the busy comings and goings of songbirds, and watching the subtle changes of light on the water and clouds unfold over the course of the day and into the evening. If you hope to slow down and re-center yourself during your vacation, this is the place for you. Time feels qualitatively different on the island—two days into our stay we were reckoning it by the comings and goings of the tide. Other amenities rounded out the pleasures of staying in this very special place. The house is a five-minute walk from crystal-clear Long Pond, which offers freshwater swimming out to a small float, or wading from a beach. The house is close to the many trails that will lead you into the National Park—they'll take you through the serenity of mossy forests, to the shore, and back again. Couple these atmospherics with an unbelievably well-equipped and thoughtfully laid out cook's kitchen (6-burner Wolf stove and any appliance, pot, or utensil you might desire; Aerolatte frother for your morning latte, anyone?), and you have everything you need to tend to yourself, body and soul. A couple of us in our group, serious cooks (and the rest, serious eaters) spent goodly amounts of time cooking in the open kitchen, chatting with our friends while looking out at the ocean. (The on-site veggie garden yielded up fresh herbs and fresh lettuces, and we loved composting the remains of our delicious meals.) Be sure to make time to get into town to get to know some of the people. You'll have a window on a community where everyone trusts and depends on each other—including summer residents and renters—much more than you depend on your neighbors back home. If you leave the place on Sheep Thief Gulch without feeling entirely composed and relaxed, you are unquestionably beyond all hope.

Aug 2016This was our second stay at Gerry and Gray's home on Isle au Haut. We first stayed there for one week in 2012. As you can see from our first review, we were enamored--so much so that we decided to book two weeks for our second stay. While we had utterly relaxed during our first stay, we suspected that a longer stay would be qualitatively different, and it was. What you'll find when you arrive is that your pace changes. Whatever your preoccupations the week before you arrive, you'll invariably find that they've become remote within hours after you've settled in--the setting of Gerry and Grady's home takes over. It's impossible not to relax once you're there.
What was our routine? Some of us woke early to take an early-morning swim in Long Pond, a five-minute walk from the house. Others stayed close by to sit on the deck, to watch the light change from one moment to the next on the water. Others took hikes to promontories where the surf pounded below against the granite shoreline. (Take the "Thunder Gulch" trail, just south of the house. Another favorite was the "Seal Trap" trail on the other side of the island.) Yet others gathered wild blueberries and raspberries for breakfast and after-dinner crostatas. And then? Leisurely days of hiking, reading, relaxing, and cooking in the well-appointed cook's kitchen that is also enhanced by ocean views, and a garden that offers up fresh herbs.
These are the pleasures of Grady and Gerry's place. Equally pleasurable are the people of the island and the things to do. Yoga at the community center. Searching among the shelves of the library on a rainy (or sunny) day. Stocking up at the store, through which everything and everyone on the island passes. (You'll hear the latest about people you don't even know.) Buying lobster at the gift shop--yes, the gift shop--where you'll be asked if you want hard shell lobsters or "shedders," and where you'll find a world map that invites you to color in an "x" for your home town. A lobster roll and/or a homemade ice cream sandwich from the "Lobster Lady." We loved every moment of living, for a brief time, in such a close-knit community, where everyone appreciates how precious this island is, and we cannot wait until we return—which will be as soon as possible, and for as long as possible.

Sep 2016This house is simply lovely. Presumably, you are considering a vacation on Isle au Haut because you appreciate the restorative power of smelling the salt air, listening to the waves on the rocks, and watching light shimmer on the water. This house is so wonderfully designed that, though it is modern and offers every comfort you might want, it does not interfere with your senses. If you go, do yourself a favor and rise early enough to see the first light and sunrise. The kitchen is great! Order fish from the store--we had tuna steaks, haddock, lobsters purchased from the fisherman, and crab meat from a great market in Stonington, and every dinner was fun to cook and almost obscenely delicious. I do believe we each would have gained weight, had it not been for the hiking, canoeing and biking.Word to the wise: if you bring a bike, don't allow hubris to let you leave your helmet at home. There is loose gravel and some challenging asphalt; the up-hills aren't for the terribly out of shape and the down-hills aren't for sissies.Great hikes are Thunder Gulch and Black Dinah. We walked to Duck Harbor campground from the edge of the park, and it was nice to walk on the road. The campground area is stunning. All of the Island residents we met were warm and friendly. If you are feeling the weight of the world, consider a week here. The combination of silent starry nights, striking sunrises, and the freshest of air, could, I believe, unwind a corkscrew.

Aug 2017Sheep Thief Gulch was just wonderful. I actually hesitate to tell you how great it is because I want to keep Gerry and Grady's place a secret. Our family just loved it. It is so peaceful. The kitchen is better than yours at home, the deck is epic, and we fell asleep to the sound of waves every night. The house has every thing you could possibly need in terms of gear. It is totally comfortable and we'll be back soon. Thanks so much Gerry and Grady for having us!

Jan 2018Our vacation to this property in August of 2017 was in a word; Spectacular! First, the home and guest house are perfect. Had everything we needed (and some). As a planner in my life, I carefully took measurements and images of the main house with the hope that someday, I might replicate it exactly for our retirement home. I can only hope I could build it on a property as amazing as this one. Which brings me to my second part.... the views of the ocean from every part of the property are absolutely stunning. We had drizzle on the mail boat ride to the island and drizzle on the ride back to mainland. Everything in-between was sunny and dry. Making for the most relaxing vacation we've had maybe EVER. Wife and I stayed in main house and each morning woke to the soft murmur of the lobster boats in the cove collecting their daily catch. We enjoyed coffee on the deck with amazing fresh air breeze and views. Kitchen is terrific. Be ready to be isolated, except for trips into the town for an ice cream treat or to stock up at the village store. While there, the local school held a pie auction which we were lucky enough to bid and win two.... they were yummy but it was a real sample of home-town people coming out for a great cause. We even received a thank-you note from the 6 children enrolled in the island school that was personalized even including the type of pie we purchased. Really special. Don't hesitate on this VRBO! PS: Owners are great to work with!

Apr 2011Our family of 6 (4 adults and 2 children) chose this house for an off-season Maine Island vacation. We were not disapointed. The Great Room in the main house was a gorgeous space for us all to be together -- to cook, to read and to relax.
The house is well-positioned for hikes in Acadia National Park at the southern end of Isle au Haut. These are the best hikes, so for us it worked out a lot better than if we'd stayed at the northern end. Don't miss Duck Mountain Trail!
In the off-season, there are essentially no amenities on the island. That's what we wanted, as we were also felt like we were the only people on the island. The IAH Store was incredibly helpful in arranging for all the food we needed to be pre-purchased and delivered to the house just before we arrived.
The owner has a truck for a modest rental that we found useful and that we'd recommend, but most everything we did was within walking distance.

Aug 2016I will start this review with my first contact with Grady & Gerry. After my first phone call I felt as though I had just hung up with an old friend. Their genuine concern for our family vacation was comforting. Now onto our arrival. As we planned our vacation we had a certain expectation, to say our expectations were exceeded is a huge understatment. The property is beautiful and the house is stunning. For such a secluded private island house, it has all the modern amenities and a kitchen that is PERFECT!During the day we rode our bikes around the island, hiked it's many trails and swam in the beautiful fresh water pond that is a 5 minute walk from the house. At the end of the day we arrive back and sit on the back deck in awe of the view in front of us.We made sure we thought of everything as far food before we went, but as always things are forgotten.......no worries, there is a great little general store that has just about anything you'll need. Our stay was a week long this time, but we are already planning a two week stay next time. I highly recommend this property, I could go on for pages about how wonderful it is.

Jul 2010I wanted a place to relax and write; my friends to hike, swim in the ocean and lake, and reconnect with their artistic talents. And for a week in this immaculately kept property, we were immersed in luxury. Bring your imagination and your cooking skills (we made bread and soup) as the island is short on commercial establishments. But this is the pinnacle of Maine island quiet and friendly atmosphere for those who want to relax.

Sep 2018Having had the pleasure of enjoying many island experiences in Maine, none has compared to the stay at this lovely compound. From the ease of communication with the hosts and the luxury amenities they have provided in their home this island experience was enhanced beyond any expectations to a 5 star stay. From the fine linens and robes to an over the top kitchen filled with every cookware imaginable, to the striking refined architecture as this home perches itself on the coast, allowing the feel of living 'on the ocean'---this is a remarkable property. The location of the compound, a short walk to Boom Beach as well as Long Pond created lingering days of canoeing, swimming, rock scrambling and just plan old fashion solitude from the world beyond. Our days of hiking in the Acadia Park, a short walk or bike ride added another level of exercise as well as enjoying the pleasure of the natural world and the beauty of the rugged coast line of Maine.
