Photos and Description of the Orrs Island vacation cottage rental 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bath, sleeper sofa in living room - sleeps 6 all queen sized

The cottage is located on the west side of Gun Point Cove 20 feet above and 50 feet from the water’s edge on a very private treed lot facing the early morning sunrise and south east down the cove to the Atlantic Ocean; which can be viewed from the large bay windows and the sliding glass doors in the living room and master bedroom above or the decks outside those rooms. Venture outside down the path and along the 230 feet of deep water frontage where a fire pit with large log seats allows viewing of seals and birds swimming or an occasional fish jumping. The fire pit has firewood close by and a picnic table that seats six. Walk 40 feet south you come to a dock and ramp extending 20 feet into the water with a 10’X16’ float attached; even at a minus tide you still have 4 feet of water under the front of the float. This allows your own craft or kayaks (or rental craft) to be tied to the float or you can fish from or just sun bathe on the float (use of the dock is at your own risk).

Reviews for this vacation cottage rental in Orrs Island, Maine

Rating
5 out of 5

A Great Maine Vacation!

Liz 19123 Philadelphia, PA
Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The house is lovely and spacious, very true to photographs.
We most enjoyed spending evenings by the campfire, for which plenty of firewood is provided. There are a wealth of signs that will direct you to local points of interest and shops where you can pick up essentials like lobster, beer, vegetables, and more lobster.
Orr's Island is a great base for exploring the area, from Portland to the various peninsulas of Boothbay Harbor. Portland is a fantastic destination for beer lovers. Allagash brewery provides a very nice tour and tasting as well as the opportunity to purchase special bottles for less than retail. Many pubs in town pour an amazing selection of drafts. Duck Fat, a small, casual restaurant makes unique pressed sandwiches, great pommes frites and a killer milkshake.
North of Orr's, there is Reid State Park, Ocean Point, Popham Beach, the lovely town of Bath and much more to see and explore than we could fit into our week's visit.
