-Bedroom with queen bed with window AC unit in the summer
-Full Bathroom with stand up shower. **Please note that this is the only full bathroom in the home and is on the second floor. For larger groups, we highly recommend the outdoor shower, the downstairs half bath and the vanity room across the hall for some extra space!
*Each bedroom has a window AC unit in the summer as well as portable fans year round - the coastal breeze is lovely!

Cell phone service can be limited on the island, making it easy to unplug and connect with family and nature, but we do have high speed Wifi!

There is parking for 1-2 cars in front of the house.

The ferry runs from Rockland to North Haven at 9:30AM, 2:20PM and 5:15PM daily and runs from North Haven to Rockland at 7:30AM, 12:30PM, and 3:45PM daily. The ferry takes an hour and is the main mode of transportation on and off of the island.

While you don't need a car to get to and from the house, car spots are extremely limited on the ferry. You must call exactly 1 month prior to initial departure dates in order to guarantee a confirmed reservation to bring a vehicle onto the island.

There is also an option to charter or bring your own boat over - we are happy to provide information on moorings.

We have installed exterior only security cameras for the safety of both guest and property. These cameras are actively recording both audio and video on all exterior entrances and side doors. Any tampering with cameras, including, but not limited to covering and otherwise disabling of these cameras are grounds for early termination of reservation with no refunds whatsoever.

Please note that any refunds made in accordance with our cancellation policy will be less any credit card fees.

You have access to the entire house, with the exception of one storage closet, the basement and attic.

We're happy to help with suggestions for places to go, but we will never be overbearing.

While we strive to minimize guest disturbances, we regularly maintain our home and may conduct lawn care during reservations, particularly on weekdays or during longer stays.

We are conveniently located about a 5 minute walk from the ferry, so a car is not required in order to enjoy your stay! We are about 1.5 miles from the local market, but there are local grocery delivery options.

We had a fabulous stay - everything was lovely! thank you!!!!

Carefully-completed renovation of ideally-located older building. Cottage description is apt, though it was spacious. We had zero issues with hot water, wifi, and streaming. New windows/screens worked well. Towels and linens were fresh. The walk to the ferry is short and the island a beautiful and peaceful location with interesting history and a friendly community. There are plenty of places to bike/walk, sit and enjoy the view as well as a few good restaurants If you get tired of cooking/grilling. The hosts provided all the info we could want about the island and vicinity, and were very responsive when we had questions about the house. Everything was as advertised. Can recommend this rental without any reservations!

We stayed on North Haven in early July. The weather was a bit touch and go but it didn't diminish from our stay. The island is classic and the house was comfortable without being ostentatious. The beds were nice, the house was clean and walking distance to the ferry and "downtown North Haven".
