We believe that Deer Isle is a special place and (as you can probably tell) we think we have a very special house. We strive to provide excellent service to make your vacation there the best it can be. But the following comments from our guests may say this better than we can.

“Late summer, fall, winter—each season has brought wonderful views and great feelings living in your house. I felt at home from the very beginning.”

“A house of many perspectives. A good place to read, write, think, pray. I’ll miss especially that view to the West—to the deep blue of the Camden Hills, the cool greens of the islands, the tide receding to reveal Carrey Island’s dirty petticoat, the beach crows and the wail of the gulls scavenging the causeway for snacks.”

“We had a marvelous stay in your home. Both of us fell in love with the house and the area. You have found a piece of paradise…gentle people, spectacular scenery and lots of creative energy. What else could you want!”

“What a delightful, restful and beauty-filled vacation we’ve had here. We’ve enjoyed the comfort, convenience, and wonderful views—of garden and beyond as far as the Camden Hills. We love Deer Isle and feel lucky to have seen it from the vantage point of this great, interesting house.”

“Thank you for a perfectly wonderful week in Maine! From the moment we stepped into your warm, light-filled home until we sadly packed our belongings today, we enjoyed every moment of life here. As my five-year-old put it: “It’s so beautiful here—I think we should stay.”

“It was lovely to stay here. Your house is beautiful (and full of every amenity) and the whole setting serene and inviting. Thank you for opening it to guests and making it possible to feel immediately at home.”

“Deer Isle is the best kept secret in America! Thanks so much for letting us rent your charming house and spend six beautiful, serene days here…The boat ride to Isle au Haut on the postal boat was a highlight…Thanks so much for putting lots of sunshine, green trees, and water into the lives of four folks from Utah.”

“Your house is filled with so much light and positive energy. We loved the flowers, the porch and the wonderful kitchen!…It was difficult to leave but already we’re looking forward to next year.”

“What a vacation and what a reprieve from a Texas heat wave. We experienced the lovely house with all its amenities, the view, the fresh flowers, the cool weather and the island with it’s great seafood and interesting, secluded , specialty shops…Thanks for beginning a love affair with Deer Isle.”

“Our whole family enjoyed a wonderful Maine vacation. The house was perfect for us with all the bedrooms, family kitchen, and the porches. Grandma and the children enjoyed playing in the trees, in the yard and on the wonderful get away balcony. What a great house! The lobster and blueberries almost topped (but not quite) the beautiful sunsets and stars at night. Thanks for sharing your home and Deer Isle. This is a beautiful, sacred space!

“Quiet solitude is increasingly difficult to find but still exists here at Deer Isle. I enjoyed the panoramic views, the walk to the Old Ferry Landing…even got to where the early morning calls of the crows were a morning blessing. God bless your future years here.

I’m living in your house right now. It’s so beautiful—especially the kitchen. Amazing!
