A proposito di questa casa struttura in affitto
Vacation summer house on Great Diamond Island, with a boat mooring.
Our 4 bedroom house sports a grand view of Casco Bay because of its proximity to the shoreline. The panoramic west view provides an unobstructed view of the sunset to the horizon every night. The house is an original home built in 1901 that has retained its antique camp style interior. This is not a modern house, as it is 120 years old. There is no air conditioning nor heating. The island normally sports a nice summertime onshore breeze that keeps the house comfortable.
The wrap around porch has a picnic table for outdoor eating and a hammock for relaxing. A propane bbq for outdoor cooking. There are two upper level balconies expanding two of the upstairs bedrooms. Perfect reading nooks. The large sunny yard is perfect for playing wiffle ball, frisbee, swinging on the tire swing, and sun bathing.
Beach access is quick and easy right down from the front yard. There is a rock reef just off shore that provides comfortable protected swimming at mid tides as the water is warmed in the sunny afternoons. Take the included kayaks out for some exploration.
If you bring your own boat then you can use the included mooring ball. There is dock at at the south end of the island to load and unload guests and supplies. There are numerous islands and destinations that can be explored with your boat. I provide a list of suggestions of islands and restaurants to visit by boat.
Bicycles are included if you care to ride the island. At low tide you can ride across the sand bar to Little Diamond Island to explore that island as well. Pets are welcome. Rainy days can be filled by trying any of the numerous board games stashed in the game cabinet, or relax while streaming a movie on the flat screen TV. Fiber cable internet wifi is included.
Portland is a 20 minute ferry ride. Casco Bay ferries provide numerous round trips each day to Portland and surrounding islands.
There are two restaurants on the island. There are no food stores nor retail shops, so you will need to bring your food or have it shipped to the island for your stay. I provide instructions on how to accomplish this easily. The fully equipped kitchen includes a microwave and dishwasher. A propane bbq is available outside.
We include an easy to use electric golf cart to transport your food and luggage from the ferry dock to the house.
A RESERVATION LENGTH MORE THAN 7 nights requires pre-approval.

This house is a classic Maine island camp. We loved every bit of our stay here. We will be back!!

It had everything we needed and a great view, too. Loved the golf cart and outdoor games provided. Very responsive to our needs. Altho the weather didn't cooperate we still had a cozy and wonderful time together.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Kate & Jonathan's place on GDI. The cottage was full of charm, super comfortable, and had everything we needed. Jonathan met us at the dock with the golf cart and helped us get all our bags loaded up, gave a little tour of the island and cottage. We loved the porch, hammock, water access with kayaks, use of the golf cart, and the water views out of just about every window. We like to cook and found the kitchen to be well stocked. We had a great dinner at The Crown Jewel (get the scallops) and happened to be there on a Saturday night when the Town Hall had a band which was so much fun. We want to especially thank Kate and Jonathan for being dog friendly. Our dog is getting up there in age and to be able to have her with us all week was super special. We very much hope to come back to the cottage - it is an amazing place.

The house was wonderful, exactly as pictured. We especially enjoyed the covered porch with views of the water. Pieces of fencing were provided to block the stairs to keep dogs on the porch. The yard was nice, and the tire swing was a lot of fun for our son. There is easy access to the water via a nearby set of steps. The house was well-stocked yet had the rustic aesthetic we were looking for. Floor fans in every bedroom kept us comfortable despite high temperatures. The owners were very helpful and responsive. All in all, a great place to spend the week.
