The property is well off the main road, and offers total privacy. Jaquish Lane consists of two separate structures (Jaquish House and #14) connected by an open grassy lawn. JAQUISH HOUSE is a large, luxurious family home with a huge open plan living area with sweeping ocean views. The master suite has breathtaking views from the king sized bed - as well as the jacuzzi soaking tub. “NUMBER 14” is a gem-like efficiency "honeymoon cottage" for two from the early 1900’s - when there was little else on the island. Enjoy naps on the porch or walk to nearby beaches, restaurants and shops. Explore tidepools along the water’s edge or take advantage of the world class striper fishing from the rocks . Eat lobster freshly pulled from the sea by local lobstermen. Go sailing to nearby Eagle Island or kayak the miles of peaceful Harpswell coastline. Curl up in front of the fireplace with a book and a glass of wine. Whatever you choose to do, it all comes back to the view. Crashing waves or perfect calm – the sea is a constant and ever changing presence at both Jaquish House and Number 14\. Sit back and watch the ocean change with the weather. Hour by hour. Minute by minute. Always different. Always beautiful. Jaquish Lane is a place to gather, surrounded by friends and family. A place for sharing meals and stories and remembering how wonderful it feels to truly let yourself slow down. Both JAQUISH HOUSE and NUMBER 14 were completely renovated in early 2015\. The chefs kitchen features all new appliances as well as high efficiency washer and dryer. Bedrooms all have brand new mattresses and are furnished with luxury bedding and linens. JAQUISH HOUSE features one King sized Master suite with en suite bathroom featuring an oceanfront jacuzzi soaking tub. One Queen bedroom with ocean views, one Queen bedroom with 48" television and blu ray player, and one "bunk room" with 4 twin beds. Free wifi - high speed internet throughout. NUMBER 14 has one Queen bed, an ensuite bathroom with clawfoot tub and tiled shower, and a kitchenette with sink, stovetop, microwave and fridge. NUMBER 14 is available from May 1st to November 1st. \* \* \* EVENTS Jaquish Lane is perfectly set up to host small weddings, family reunions, or other special gatherings, and can be rented with the property next door - The Gills (vrbo 318909) which sleeps an additional 6 and The Red House (vrbo 1063510) which sleeps 4\. All three cottages are a part of THE GILLS GROUP. Depending on the size and type of gathering there are additional fees / insurance requirements for all events. Please inquire to learn more. \* \* \* AVAILABILITY If the summer dates you are looking for aren't available at Jaquish Lane, please check out my other two properties on Bailey Island that make up THE GILLS GROUP. VRBO Property # 318909 (The Gills) which sleeps 6 and VRBO Property # 1063519 (The Red House) which sleeps 4\. The Gills Group cottages can be rented together to accommodate parties of all sizes. \* \* PETS Pets are welcome at Jaquish House and will incur a fee of $60 per night per pet. This is non-negotiable. Everyone says, "My pet would never damage anything," but sadly, experience has proven that's not always the case. \* \* \* BAILEY ISLAND 25 minutes from Brunswick and Bowdoin College. 40 minutes from Freeport and L.L.Bean. 55 minutes from Portland. Bailey Island is the perfect place to unplug, recharge, and reconnect with family and friends. \* \* \* THE OWNER My name is Carter Smith and I am the owner of THE GILLS GROUP (The Red House, Jaquish Lane and The Gills). I was born on Bailey Island and after traveling the world I know that this little island is special. As both a photographer and filmmaker, I travel quite a bit and I've furnished the houses with things I've collected from around the world (and around Maine). These are not just "rental properties"to me . These are houses I've designed and furnished with love and attention to detail - places where I spend time with family and friends whenever I get the chance. Places that I love sharing. \* \* \* WHEN USING "ONLINE BOOKING" - YOUR RESERVATION WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED "CONFIRMED" UNTIL YOU COMMUNICATE WITH THE PROPERTY MANAGER ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Pool/Spa - Massage ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Elevator - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: smoking inside = $500.00 additional cleaning fee ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Golf - Kayak - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Ice skating nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Sailing nearby - Sledding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,872 square feet ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91440000/91433700/91433654/1049e303.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bay Vista - 3BR, 2BA waterfront home with sunset views over Middle Bay Harpswell - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.2 Wonderful 22 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=91433654&PinnedHotelID=91433654&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75720000/75712200/75712176/0951468d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Classic Maine cottage set on its own peninsula with stunning views Harpswell - Ocean view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 25 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=75712176&PinnedHotelID=75712176&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33710000/33705200/33705195/ba0a7088.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spectacular waterfront home with panoramic views on 4 private acres !

Toddler, mom and dad stayed in the cottage and the rest of us stayed in the main house. The common spaces, including the kitchen, were great for a large group and well equipped. The property location, on a bluff right on the ocean, was really fantastic with stunning views. The check in was very easy and Dave the property manager was always available. One issue we noticed was that there were no smoke detectors in either house, which should be addressed immediately. But overall we loved our visit to Jaquish House. ##### Andrew H.

Very exciting from within a cozy house. We enjoyed staying in a house where you could feel somebody's presence, rather than the "accessorized" vacation homes with welcoming signs from the Dollar store etc. Only thing lacking--place needs a new key box because the existing one is hard enough to use that it feels like it won't work.

It really is a special place. We had six adults and three kids so were left with plenty of space to hang out. The kitchen was really well equipped (less a dishwasher, but we adjusted to that pretty quickly). We had a lot of rain but the common space was large and comfortable and a perfect place to watch a storm roll through. ##### Nina E. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Neurine W.

However we did enjoy the small sandy beach that’s just a 2 minute walk down the road for incredible sunrises and sunsets Would love to return sometime! ##### Natasha G.

The ocean views were amazing from the great room, deck, and master bedroom and bath. The sunrises were breathtaking. We enjoyed watching the lobster boats checking their traps each day and the boats sailing in Casco Bay. The open living space was great for our family of 5 adults and a dog to spend time together – very spacious and comfortable. There were books, games and puzzles to keep everyone busy. The kitchen was well equipped with everything that we needed – there really was no need to leave, although we did enjoy a couple of delicious meals at local restaurants right on the island. This home is awesome – a wonderful place to relax, spend time together, and just enjoy the spectacular views. ##### Neil A. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna Q.

Jan 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### An excellent stay! The trip got off to a great start when we entered the home, dimly lit and with a fire roaring. It was already dark, so we could not see the ocean, but when we awoke the next morning, we could then see the beautiful ocean views and rocky coast from the expansive primary bedroom windows. The coastline is exactly as it appears in the photos, the tides are pretty large providing a changing landscape throughout the day, the lobster boats come by regularly with sets directly in front of the home, there is constant entertainment. Functionally, the kitchen was fully stocked with all cookware, utensils, basic spices, and paper towels. Everything you need for a great stay! ##### Cory P.

The experience was better than pictures will show, Bailey Island is like going back to simpler, better times. There is a tv there, but wasn’t turned on once. Cooking, listening to music by the sea, games with friends who came up, hikes, etc. The property manager Dave was extremely attentive and helpful with anything we needed, and the check in/out was simple. The views and Bailey Island as a whole were just gorgeous and the people in town and restaurants like Cook’s and Sundrenched couldn’t of been friendlier. We will definitely like to come back, as would our pup, who I had to pick up to get into the car when it was time to go- something that never happens! ##### Kevin K.

We are deeply in love with the beauty and vibe of coastal Maine...its incredibly peaceful and so special. And then somehow this home, its decor, and its location still managed to blow us away. We are very picky and hard to please...but Carter just gets it. Everything in his home is cozy and luxurious yet also authentic and natural. We wanted a slow week with our two young children and this was the perfect vacation for that. We hiked, saw seals, combed the beach for shells, took photographs, ate our weight in lobster, shopped for souvenirs + artwork, took a boat tour, read books, and cooked. Bailey island is so unique and its hard to explain, just go. Carter's home truly accentuates the Maine lifestyle and you can tell he truly loves this place. The giant bathtub overlooking the sea was heaven, the fully stocked kitchen was delightful, his library of Maine-based literature was clever, and the multiple outdoor lounging/dining areas was picture-perfect. I have many recommendations as to what to do on Bailey Island, too many to fit here. But mainly do this: have breakfast at The Driftwood Inn, walk down to Land's End for fun shopping, hike the Devil's back trail to see seals (Orr's Island), take the noon boat ride from Cook's Lobster house, sit on the deck at Jaquish Lane with a glass of wine and just relax. It rarely gets better than this. Thank you Carter! ##### Gina L. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marjorie G.
