About

From bold open ocean views, rugged Maine coastline, and easy water access via a shared beach, to a fresh, new interior, beautiful spacious yard, and convenient location just minutes from all the Harpswell Islands have to offer, "The Little House" is the perfect cottage for your island getaway!

Recently renovated in 2015, this waterfront cottage has everything you want and need for your vacation to Maine including a fully stocked kitchen, a comfortable living room with cable TV and internet, a full bathroom with a walk-in shower, a bedroom with twin bunk beds, another bedroom with a twin bed, and a master bedroom with a queen bed, all with stunning ocean views.

You will enjoy waking up to the sun rising over the ocean and spending your days outside making memories swimming and kayaking from the small shared family pebbly beach area, playing in the yard, and sitting by the ledges sipping on your favorite drink while dinner sizzles on the grill. In the afternoons, you will love walking to the many local restaurants nearby including Sundrenched and Cook's Lobster & Ale House, and then ending the evening with a delicious Maine ice cream cone from the Island Candy Company.

There are endless opportunities for adventure and many memories to be made at The Little House! Come enjoy all this island retreat has to offer!

Any reservations made after 8/1/20 will not be allowed to bring pets. Sorry for the inconvenience but if we have a wonderful kennel/boarding nearby, if you'd like to have your pup stay 've used them personally and they are amazing!

The Little House does not have a washer and dryer, but there is a laundromat in Cook's Corner (15 min away).

The little house was perfect. The website information prepared us well for what to except before arrival. Very comfortable for our family of four. Orr’s Island was quiet and the community was very friendly.

There is nothing like sitting just watching the ocean on a clear Maine day. Ideal spot for that. The cottage is very clean and well appointed but there were end of season maintenance issues such as a leaky kitchen drain and bathroom faucet. Maine Stay customer service is excellent as always. Iris Eats Maine up the road is a fantastic lunch place.

We have been frequent summer guests at The Little House for many years and this gem at the end of the road has felt like home each time we visit. Views of the water from most every window of the house and a large yard for our dog to play. The sense of peace and calm we feel staying here can't be beat.

I can’t imagine a more private, beautiful place! Spent lots of time just sitting on the porch watching the tides and the sea ducks.

Had a lovely stay here. A few things: there was a vaccum in the bunk room. Might be best to put that in the garage. the porch area is a poor design - not wide enough and should have some shelter. Maybe you can make a lil patio w/ umbrella outside the front door.Or include a movable umbrella to use w/ the chairs. Kitchen was cute and well equipped and the place was very clean. Next time I think I will opt for an older more authentic Maine cottage - but this one was sweet. Thank you.

The location is great in that it is located right on ocean front property. The home is small but very comfortable and well equipped. The property is nicely kept. The sound of the waves and observation of the tide movement were highlights.

We had a delightful stay at the Little House. The house is cozy and well-stocked. And our 7 and 4 year old loved exploring the rocky beach just outside. Looking forward to coming back next year.

Magical Maine! This adorably quaint house was the perfect getaway for us! Close access to the water kayak delivery, fishing...made this vacation the greatest! We loved every moment! Great nearby restaurants...seafood galore! The neighbors welcomed us with their kindness and detailed information of the area to make the trip extra special. We really appreciated that! Thank you to Mainstay Vacations for responding to every email, text. You ladies are fantastic.

My husband and I have stayed in the Little House for 1-2 weeks for the past 4 years. We love the location, comfort of the house, the yard and of course, the fantastic views! Its truly our "happy place" and allow us to finally exhale from the craziness of work life. Its where we go to relax and re-charge. MaineStay staff are professional and helpful. Thank you for another wonderful stay!

This is the second time that my husband and I, along with our GoldenDoodle have stayed in The Little House. We love being right on the water and enjoy the water views from every room. It's clean and comfortable and the perfect location and size for us. We can easily walk to other places located on both Orr's and Bailey Islands, yet we like the general privacy of the house at the end of the road. We will return again and that says it all!

The Little House was the perfect spot for my husband and I and our dog. We loved the location of the home at the end of the road and the views could not be beat! We had coffee on the porch in the mornings with the sunrise, used the nice shaded part of the house in the afternoons for reading and enjoyed quiet evenings sipping wine looking at the water view. The house was clean, comfortable and nicely equipped for our week's stay. We'll be back! Cyndi and Patrick Ferguson
