Maine Island Farmhouse--Penobscot Bay--Gorgeous sunsets in natural setting

Lovely traditional Maine island farmhouse, situated amid meadows in quiet & private setting, with scenic sunset views towards the Camden Hills and west Penobscot Bay.

The house has 4 good sized bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, and can comfortably accommodate 6 people. Separate dining room, comfortable living room with fireplace, fully equipped kitchen and spacious outside deck. TV & Internet Access; Washer/Dryer. All linens provided.

A wooded path leads to a private beach on the property. Wonderful environment for nearby walks, picnics, bike rides and boating. Easy drive to the market, public beaches and other island amenities. No Smoking on premises. Pets not allowed unless by written permission.

North Haven Island is located in the heart of Penobscot Bay; a 1 hour & 10 min. scenic ferry ride to the island is operated by the Maine State Ferry Service out of Rockland, Maine.

There are several public beaches on the island that offer fun family outings: Try any of 3 beaches at Mullens Head Park or the scenic Narrows Beach.

The Turner Farm has an extensive array of organic produce and hosts weekly barn suppers.

Close by is Foggy Meadows Farm, which sells farm fresh eggs, delightful gifts and home-made ice cream.

If you get tired of cooking and want a nice evening out, Nebo Lodge specializes in delicious farm (and sea) to table meals and has an excellent bar.

For lighter fare, try the gourmet pizza offerings at Calderwood Hall.

Magical farmhouse paradise
I cannot say enough good things about this rural farmhouse paradise. From the incredible sunsets to the nightly firefly show over fields of wildflowers, to the magical private beach, to the kind and incredibly helpful property owner. This is a special place that me and my family plan to return to every summer

A farmhouse full of character, this house exudes charm and calm.
This is where you would come to write your novel or to read that stack of books that has been accumulating at your bed side all year. While we didn't do the first, we certainly read (lots of places to kick back and relax), swam, biked, played Scrabble and had epic badminton games. There is a relaxed lack of fussiness to the house (and the island as a whole), a simplicity that invited us to get back in touch with 'the things that matter,' nature, good food and sleep, and to leave the noise, the chatter that besets our daily lives, behind. We can't wait to return.
