Garden cottage w/ 4 kayaks/gear/dock/patio, parking on Stonington Harbor nearby

Sweet Pea Cottage is an affordable and charming 3 bedroom cottage located just a few minutes walk to downtown Stonington & harbor. It comes with the use of four kayaks and gear located on the dock of our other cottage right on Stonington Harbor, about a 10-15 minute walk away, or few minutes drive (vrbo 30315) - including a parking spot and use of the grounds. It is just down the street from the popular Friday market. The cottage is more modest, yet warm and charming, decorated in a cozy-cottage style with simple antiques and collectibles - very clean, well supplied and surrounded by gardens and mossy-floored woodlands. Smart tv, high speed internet, outdoor seating, gardens, fire pit, gas grill, picnic table and tiny spring creek, too. Need more space. Consider adding attached rustic summer bedroom (2 twins for $25 plus $10/night). While not possessing a direct ocean view, a small path up behind the cottage leads to a hill top which has distant views out of Stonington Harbor, out beyond Isle au Haut, and over to the hills of Camden. Located on Rte 15A (the back side of the island) with quick and easy access to downtown or grocery store, harbor or only a 5 minute drive to nearby Sand Beach. With so much public oceanfront and wide-ranging activities nearby, Sweet Pea Cottage provides ability to enjoy the amenities of Deer Isle and Stonington, but at one of the most cozy and affordable area rentals!

Great cottage in Downeast Maine
We enjoyed staying at this vintage cottage within easy reach of all that this area of Downeast Maine has to offer. Hosts conveniently provided an additional parking spot very near the Isle au Haut ferry boat docks.

First time in Maine
The location of the cottage, halfway between town and the Burnt Cove Market, is so convenient. The cottage itself is homey. The beds were each voted "just right" for sleeping by their occupants. Having a reserved parking spot and use of the kayaks in town was also handy. Aside from this, our hosts helped us find interesting local things to do while waiting a couple of days for the fog to go away, as it finally did. Sunshine! Island views!

A very good experience
The accommodations were both spacious and cozy. Smaller bedrooms but just right for one or two persons and beds and pillows were comfortable. A good washer and dryer was useful, as well as a large, well appointed kitchen. Close to the center of Stonington, with excellent restaurants. Day trips to other towns added variety. Barbara was attentive to our needs and most friendly.

Great base for exploring Isle au Haut
Barbara's place was the perfect base for exploring Isle au Haut and Deer Isle. The house has the feel and charm of a family summer home. Everything we needed was there.

The house was cozy and felt like a visit to our grandparents home. The house had everything we needed. clean and well stocked. The washer/dryer was a great bonus. Location was close to town and Barbara offered parking at her home which helped. She was very helpful and quick to respond. We had a great time.
