Cottage in the Woods on Picturesque Island

Nestled in the woods on picturesque Peaks Island, this delightful cabin 'Sequester' offers guests a tranquil escape. With a cozy bedroom, dedicated office, and a charming living room (with sofa bed!). This enchanting retreat is perfect for a relaxing getaway, only a 10 minute walk from the Atlantic ocean or Casco Bay.

Peaceful private cottage on an island in Maine. A 20 min ferry ride from Portland which was recently voted the “coziest city in America.”

From the cottage you can explore the woods behind, bring your snow shoes or cross country skis! Or you’re a 10 min walk to either Casco Bay or the Atlantic Ocean.
A 35 min walk to the ferry, so bring your car or bike onto the island!
