About

Perched on the water's edge, The Overlook offers commanding views of Merriconeag Sound to Casco Bay and its islands. You'll find yourself waiting to watch the sunset every evening, as the sky is painted with stunning hues and the soft light fills every room. The Overlook offers multiple decks with plenty of seating for dining outdoors or simply relaxing by the sea. Beautiful gardens and trees surround the property, offering great privacy, while being within walking distance to all Bailey Island has to offer.

Inside you'll find a well appointed kitchen with everything you'll need to prepare a delicious Maine meal, a beautiful dining room area with two sliding glass doors opening to the deck, and a spacious living room with comfortable furnishings and panoramic ocean view. The first floor also offers a bedroom with a queen bed and ocean views, as well as a full bathroom with a laundry area just outside. On the second floor you'll find two additional ocean view bedrooms with queen beds and a shared full bathroom with a tile shower. Hardwood and tile floors throughout, modern coastal decor, and an abundance of natural light completes this seaside retreat.

Conveniently located in the West Shore neighborhood of Bailey Island, you'll love being just 0.5mi (8-10min walk) from all of the island's great local restaurants including Cook's Lobster & Ale House (serving lunch and dinner), Sundrenched (serving lunch and dinner), and Bailey Island General Store (convenience store).

Spend your days relaxing by the sea, exploring the shore, sailing out of Cook's Lobster on the Schooner Alert (70-foot tall ship), or soaking up the sun at Cedar Beach (1mi away) and come home to experience the gorgeous sunset over the bay.

The Overlook is the perfect vacation destination and will surely have you coming back for years to come.

We woke up to beautiful morning views of Casco Bay as we planned our day of sightseeing around Harpswell. Sunsets on the deck as the schooner Alert sailed by were spectacular.

The home is perfect. It was very clean, not too many breakable trinkets (we traveled with kids), and a wonderful kitchen/dining set up. The rocky beach below is a wonderful place to play. Sun rises and sunsets that you won’t believe.
