We were up for a wedding at Peaks Island in October. A ferry ride over and a very short drive to the unit. It is located on the North East side of the island with beautiful rocky shore views. The unit itself is clean and inviting. Rustic style charm, natural woods, and warm.

I spent summers on Long Island in Casco Bay always dreaming of staying at Peak’s Island to see what all the hype was about… Well, it exceeded my expectations at this location! The communication with the owner, to the comfort of the cottage and view was priceless. We are already planning for next summer 😃

Our family of mom, dad, 2 adult children, their spouses, 2 granddaughters, and a Boston terrier had a week of reconnecting with each other on Peaks Island in this beautiful house. Gino is a great communicator. He gave us details of the workings of the house and property, well ahead of time. The large front porch and quiet path in front of the house were perfect for the "littles" to explore and play, without fear of road traffic. The beds are comfortable and the wonderful windows that are screened and open easily gave us the best part of the trip.....the constant sound of the ocean. The kitchen is updated, well equipped, and clean. The 3 bathrooms, with one on the ground floor, made life easy. The washer and dryer is another great addition to the light, bright, breezy, and quiet home. We took advantage of the stove, oven, gas grill, comfy porch chairs, and large dining table and chairs. We hope to stay here again. We loved our visit.

Six of us had the great fortune to stay at this beautiful cottage the week of July 15th. The home is very comfortable and was well stocked with all the staples and kitchen equipment we needed. There was a cool breeze every night and there was a fan so sleeping conditions were perfect. The view from the front porch was so magnificent that we spent the majority of our time sitting there and looking out over the ocean. It was the most relaxing vacation I have ever experienced. The only downside is the number of golf carts and people coming down to the lookout spot in front of the cottage. They did not bother us in the least, but you should expect this. I would definitely consider staying here again and highly recommend it to others.

Beautiful home with lots of comfortable places to sit and relax. The whole house has views of the water and sunrise. Very private, perfect location. Our favorite house rental on Peaks by far!

Peaks Island is an absolutely beautiful place. We really enjoyed our vacation. The house is located right on the water where we would sit on the porch and watch the waves crash into the rocks. Every window on the front of the house looked over the water. Gino was great to work with and communication and check in was very easy. We would definitely stay here again. If you want a beautiful, serene, relaxing vacation, this is it. I would recommend renting a golf cart, we were really glad we did and explored the island with it.

I loved this place! It is the second house located on a short dirt road with only two houses on it. It is so peaceful and quiet. After the house there is a trail you can walk. In front of the house there is the road, some bushes, beautiful rocks and then the ocean. You can watch the sunrise. The house itself is so cute and has everything you need. It is up-to-date and the windows open easily so with a nice breeze coming in. You won't be sorry if you rent this house.

The cottage sits in a special location that takes full advantage of all the views the back shore of Peaks Island has to offer. However, while it sits at the end of a dead-end dirt road, the dead end leads to public hiking paths as well as public rocky beaches adjacent to the property, meaning that there was a steady stream of traffic past the porch. While it was mostly kind islanders and tourists, there was a late night trio of loud, drunken young men who seemingly had just discovered swearing and alcohol. They were gone in less than a half hour though, having run out of booze. Not a complaint, but want to give a heads-up that while the cottage is lovely and welcoming with a great porch that overlooks the best part of Casco Bay, it is not as private as we would have liked. Still a gorgeous spot. And a lovely cottage with all the needs for a vacationing group.
