About this property

New Cottage Perfect for a Peaceful and Quiet stay on the Ocean with Beach

Newly Constructed Friendly Cottage on Oceanside, Bailey Island is now available for your seaside vacation, no matter the season. This well-insulated cottage, heated and cooled by solar and geothermal systems, is appealing during the less - crowded brisk Maine springs, the lazy ocean-breezed days of summer, the colorful crisp days of fall, or the quiet peaceful days of winter.
Friendly cottage is on the east side of the island with an unhindered view of Casco Bay and spectacular sunrises, and sits on a secluded beach at the dead end of a quiet neighborhood.
Yet, the cottage is in walking distance of the general store, post office, a non-denominational church, several local eateries including the famous Cook's Lobster House as well as Mackerel Cove, the hub of the fishing and boating community. Entertaining and socializing has a comfortable flow in this 3 bedroom-2 bathroom home - perfect for family get-togethers, reunions, special events or simply a nest to enjoy the Maine experience.The nearest shopping centers are in Brunswick (13 miles away and a 30 minute drive) .Stopping at a grocery store before you come to Bailey Island might be more convenient, although there is a general store with limited supplies.
Experience living in a newly constructed near net zero energy efficient home.Friendly Cottage is a excellent example of a home built with many innovative technologies including solar hot water panels, geothermal and photovoltaic power just to name a few .If you are considering building an energy efficient home with all or some of these technologies, come for a stay!

Sea-side Enchantment
Eric and Laurie were wonderful, thoughtful and friendly hosts, while fully respecting our privacy.The cottage was beautifully furnished reflecting their deep Maine roots and love for Bailey Island. It was well equipped, and super clean. Every detail seems to have been thought of. The setting--enjoyable both from the cottage and the Adirondack chairs--was beautiful... and breath-taking every minute of the day and awe inspiring at sunrise and sunset. We very enthusiastically recommend Friendly Cottage.

Thanksgiving week
We had a wonderful stay the week of Thanksgiving! Our college age daughter had to have her tonsils out the week before Thanksgiving and this beautiful guest home was the perfect place to recuperate for her. I enjoyed the early sunrises from the upstairs primary bedroom and she had the quiet of the downstairs bedroom. When my husband and older daughter joined us later in week - plenty of room for everyone. The home is beautiful, kitchen well stocked and views amazing!!!

Mother/Daughter Memories!
Friendly Cottage was our home away from home while we enjoyed exploring Bailey Island and other nearby areas. Laurie and Eric have created the perfect haven to relax, unwind and create memories that will last a lifetime. The views from the cottage are breathtaking and you will have everything you need and more for a wonderful stay. The red chairs by waters edge were definitely the highlight of our stay! Thank you Laurie and Eric for sharing your amazing property with us!
