You can also walk to Osier's for fresh off the boat fish or a quick lunch. Ask for the Fisherman’s catch. During the summer season you may pick up fresh baked goods at Kneaded Provisions. The public boat launch is next to the Co-op, and you have a choice of Bittersweet Landing Boatyard or Gamage Shipyard for your boating needs.

Natalie was super sweet and promote to answer any questions. The home has wonderful views and is fully equipped with everything you would need to cook, enjoy and relax. We had 2 children who loved the yard and the hiking trails that were all close by.

This home was perfect for our family to relax and get a taste of amazing fresh lobster! It was so awesome to see the boats head out in the morning and have the tranquility of a small coastal town. The nearby pemaquid lighthouse and fort was a great stop. The house had everything needed to make us feel right at home!

We enjoyed our stay in South Bristol. All the windows gave us great views from every room. The front porch overlooking the water was our favorite place to sit and relax with family and friends. The house was well cared for and fully-equipped for a comfortable stay. We appreciated Natalie's attention to all our needs.

The home is well suited for those that want to get away from it all but still have Wi-Fi. Very tranquil and beautiful views of the water. One minor issue with the coffee maker but the owner replaced it the next day! Perfect stay to head for the day to Bar Harbor or Booth Bay Harbor. The house was clean.
