This property was updated for the 2019 rental season with new painting throughout, new bedding, new carpeting, a new kitchen stove, and king mattress. Located on one of the most magnificent coastal roads in Maine, this terrific cedar shake cottage takes full advantage of the ocean views overlooking Islesboro Island. It offers more privacy than most Bayside cottages and is just over a mile from the center of the village. A large yard provides protection from the road and neighbors with private water access just a few steps away across Shore Road.
The 1st level offers an open floor plan with galley kitchen, open dining area and living room with full views of the Bay - sliding glass doors lead to the very large wrap around deck for relaxing in the salt air. A full tub-shower bath and laundry area complete the 1st floor.
The 2nd level offers three bedrooms and another bath that includes a toilet sink and soaking tub. A bedroom with a full bed and a very large bedroom with a king bed both have water views. The 3rd bedroom includes 2 twin beds and enjoys views of the natural beauty of the surrounding woods.
A great space for a larger family or two couples to share, private water access for combing the shoreline or launching your kayaks, and tranquility for a most restful and enjoyable vacation.

Everyone from the agency was terrific. They were instantly responsive, always helpful, friendly and polite. We had a small issue with water pressure (which resolved by itself) but they were ready to swing into action even at 10pm on a Sunday night. Very much appreciated!

Periwinkle Cottage was gorgeous. There are lots of different spaces to sit, so kids can play videogames on the TV and adults can read books without bothering each other. The deck has a lovely view and the smell of the ocean was intoxicating.

Periwinkle was a wonderful cottage! The view of the water was where we parked ourselves every morning with a cup of coffee. The beds were comfortable and the cottage was so charming! The amenities were great! I loved having a dish washer and washer and dryer. The fact that we were able to bring our dog was the best! He had an amazing time as well! We could not have. Even more comfortable! Thank you!

The Periwinkle Cottage is a well equipped, peaceful and enjoyable place to experience a relaxing vacation in the Penobscot Bay area. The shore road is a great place to walk, and you get to see both the moon and sun rise over the water if the time is right. We really enjoyed our stay!

This agency is totally committed to their guests, and makes sure that everything goes smoothly. When we had a question about the TV, Ben, the property manager, made a special trip out on a Sunday morning to explain it to us. They go above and beyond what most people expect from a vacation rental company.

Town Info - Bayside Village, Northport, Belfast, & Stockton Springs
Really two towns (legally) - Belfast and Northport are neighbors, and then Bayside is located inside of the town of Northport. While only a short distance from coastal Route 1, Bayside remains a well-kept secret; a small hamlet that takes one back to a simpler, uncomplicated time. A few years back, DownEast Magazine did a great article on Bayside that is still mostly relevant today. Click HE...
