Mid-Coast and Islands House | Homeport - Modern oceanfront cottage overlooking quintessential Mackerel Cove

3 Bedroom House in Mid-Coast and Islands, Bailey Island

Completely renovated from the foundation up and completed in August 2011, Homeport boasts a modern design that allows you to take in stunning views of Mackerel Cove and its beach. Nestled among family-owned properties passed down through generations of lobstermen, this home enjoys a prime location on Bailey Island, just a short walk from the Bailey Island General Store, Land's End Gift Shop, and several beaches. With breathtaking sunsets and the feeling of being surrounded by water, you'll truly experience the essence of a Maine coast getaway. The picturesque views of Mackerel Cove’s waterfront stretch across anchored boats and lobster docks, leading out to the open ocean. Cool ocean breezes gently transition hot summer days into peaceful, starry nights.
This idyllic setting is perfect for exploring Maine’s renowned "rocky coast" before returning to the comfort of your home at the end of the day. A convenient boardwalk behind the house leads to a semi-private sandy beach, perfect for searching for sea glass and shells or enjoying a swim. Homeport will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression, drawing you back year after year to create new memories along the beautiful Maine coast.
One dog per party welcome at Homeport (a non-refundable pet fee applies). If booking on VRBO click on "Travelers" box and check box by "I am traveling with pets."

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at HOMEPORT several times and we will keep coming back. The location of the house is incredible. You are surrounded by water. Out the front door is Mackerel Cove one of the most photographed places in Maine .The house is well appointed and very comfortable. Even during warm weather we stayed cool with the breeze coming off the water. Close to great restaurants and shops. When I am there, I want to toss my car keys in the I can't come home.
