Staying on long Island and Portland

If you're interested in staying on the island or in Portland, book a place as soon as possible!! 

We cannot stress it enough, Maine is Vacationland! Places fill up fast!

Our families are going to be staying on the island June 23-30.  Make sure the rental days go from Sunday-Sunday!
Every cottage on the island are individually owned and managed.  Check the calendar for availability   The rates for "off-peak season" should apply to the end of June.

A couple of places people could stay on the island include:

http://www.vrbo.com/292497 I've talked to this owner a few times, Joyce Hartwick.  This home is not waterfront, but it seems like it's a lot of bang for your buck. It sleeps 10 people and comes with a car.  For $800/week!  It rents Sunday to Sunday.




Christine's on the coast, a B & B on the island.  $50/day per person.  She has 2 bedrooms available.
