House for Rent

Welcome to Great Cranberry Island, Maine With magnificent views of Acadia and Mount Desert from a distance, travel to our serene island just off the southern end of Maine's Mount Desert Island. Named for the red berry common in this area, Great Cranberry Island is a peaceful community with country lanes, lively fishing harbors and rock-strewn shores. Great Cranberry has its own general store, post office, church, library, and historical society. A combination mail boat and ferry runs between the mainland town of Northeast Harbor and Great Cranberry Island six times a day in the summer. Our splendid home is located just a quarter mile up the road from the town dock, within walking distance of the General Store. A view from both front and back porch allows visitors to witness the beauty of Manset Bay at sunrise or sunset. We offer amenities which include: First floor with living room (satellite TV), dining room, kitchen/eating area, pantry/mudroom with a washer and dryer set-up, and a master suite with an attached bathroom with shower. Second floor with a full bath and three bedrooms. Bicycles and a golf cart are available at the house as modes of transportation around the island.
