Island Home Minutes Away from beaches, hiking, kayaking, or seaside dining
This is an adorable 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home located on a quaint island in Maine.
We are a quick walk to the beach and and many hiking trails. We have a fully stocked home with deck and fire pit which is completely child friendly, yet perfect for working from home as well.
Head to several local lobster houses to get the catch of the day and cook right at home or head out to breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Venture into Brunswick which is right down the road or head to Freeport and LL Bean and outlet shopping or Portland and amazing culture and cuisine.
Acadia National Park is close by as is Booth Bay Harbor and so many other adorable destinations. The perfect home for a getaway for Summer and Fall.
Sorry, no pets allowed.

Total relaxation
We arrived late at night and didn’t get a good look at the property until morning. What a beautiful location, an adorable house with interesting decorations, very quaint and comfortable. It was the perfect getaway. We weren’t quite sure how to work the stove (some instructions may help) but we did get it working. The window fans were fabulous and kept the house cool. The back deck was the best spot to relax. Absolutely charming.

Orrs Island stay
The house was beautiful, very clean and had all the amenities needed. The beds were very comfortable. It was the perfect spot to take trips in the area and come back to relax in the evenings.

Excellent Maine Family Vacation
This property is well kept and has some modern amenities for an older home; great for a summer getaway. No air conditioning, but nights were mostly cool enough. Location was good; many day trips as well as local hiking and exploring. Property owner was extremely responsive.

Loved this house!
The house is charming and beautifully decorated. As an old house it has it's quirks, but also has so many updated features including a new refrigerator, dishwasher, and TVs. The neighborhood is peaceful and friendly with hiking trails, kayaking, and great restaurants nearby. We enjoyed our stay very much.

This was a ideal spot for 4 adults and 2 young children. Nice indoor and outdoor spaces. Modern fixtures in a well-furnished old house. Convenient to Cedar Beach (perfect small family beach 10 minutes away), the Orr’s Island Library, General Store, places to eat and to buy lobsters (Glenn’s), candy and ice-cream shop... The bedrooms got hot during a string of unusually hot and sunny days; there are fans, but no AC. Gas grill hadn’t been cleaned, gas stove was not always fully functional, but remote hosts did what they could to address these matters.

Orr's Island
All the kitchen equipment had to be washed before we could use it. On the other hand, the property manager was very helpful. In general it was very warm and quite uncomfortable. No much guidance as to what was around it. We only found a great place for lunch after 5 days.
