Photos and Description of the Vinalhaven vacation house rental 4 BR, 2.5 BA, sleeps 8

Please Note: Recession-Buster Rates Introduced on 4/3/09. Our very private home sits on a secluded point of land overlooking the ocean and nearby islands. Built by our family in 1945, the house is extremely comfortable and well-maintained. You will enjoy savoring sunset views from our living room after spending a day boating and soaking up the beauty of the Maine coast. This is a perfect place to relax and escape the worries of the world! The house can best be described as a contemporary Cape. As our family vacation hideaway, the house has a lot of warm, personal touches and offers all amenities. The living room wing has cathedral ceilings, a granite fireplace, and large windows overlooking the ocean. The master bedroom suite occupies another wing of the house, complete with its own private bath and a second fireplace. The recently-renovated kitchen has a gas oven, a convection oven, a microwave, and a large refrigerator. A wood stove graces the dining area.
