Bailey Island Vacation Rental cottage

This charming coastal house has been here for over a hundred years. Named for the 800 orchids that were once grown in a greenhouse on the south end of the property, the home still boasts a large colorful perennial garden. Feel free to pick fresh flowers, as well as blueberries and raspberries during your stay. Across the street you will find a large field perfect for lounging in Adirondack chairs and watching the Lobstermen dropping and gathering traps or for flying a kite. From here you can store your canoes and kayaks for easy launch access. The beach is perfect for gathering rocks and shells, watching crabs scuttle by, and for those hardy souls the swimming is not bad at high tide! The island is beautiful and has many places to explore. For those who desire a little taste of city life downtown Brunswick has lovely shops, restaurants, and a farmers market. Freeport with all of its outlet shops including L.L. Bean is a short drive away. And don't forget Portland's waterfront!
