Charming Island Cabin with Breathtaking Coastal Waterfront--Immerse in Serenity

Relax and enjoy island life at Red Ledge Cabin. Find serenity on our 3-acre waterfront retreat. Unplug from stress at this cozy, rustic, well-equipped summer cabin with picturesque views of the ocean harbor and coastal Maine wildlife. Buy fresh lobster and clams at T.I.M.S. (island market) approximately 3 blocks away. Wi-Fi is now available at our cabin or go to the island Library. More importantly, go outside to hike, visit our historic lighthouse, swim at the quarry, nap in our hammock, sit on our granite bench by the ocean, visit island museums, and explore island beaches.

On the main level of our cabin is the living and eating area, wood stove, kitchen, bathroom and utility room. There is a common sleeping loft with two queen beds and one twin bed, accessed by a sturdy ladder with handrails. There is also a queen-sized pull-out couch in the main room. There are books, playing cards, board games, CD's, DVD's, and puzzles, plus you can play Buoy Golf, a family favorite. Position buoys around the property and use putting irons and whiffle gold balls to chip your ball to hit each buoy. There's also a low deck at ground level and a high deck, which is ideal for fantastic views down harbor plus watching shooting stars at night. Go down to the pink granite ledge at water's edge, sit on our granite bench and enjoy the ocean breezes and marine wildlife.

Swans Island is accessible daily by a State of Maine Ferry from Bass Harbor (near Bar Harbor). Please search for the Swan's Island Ferry (Maine Department of Transportation) for the schedule and ticket pricing. This is a 17-vehicle and passenger ferry--a 40 minute ride. Four reservations are sold for each ferry. Otherwise, it' first come, first serve. If you miss a ferry, just relax as you'll get on the next one.

Please note: Swans Island is dry--no alcohol is sold on the island. Please bring any alcoholic beverages if you wish to partake. There is one store on the island (T.I.M.S.) and it's very well stocked, but it's more affordable to bring your groceries and drinks onto the island. T.I.M.S. is open every day and sells fresh lobsters at the lowest prices. They also sell homemade pizzas, which are tasty, on Wednesday and Fridays. Call ahead to place your order. Every Saturday morning, homemade sticky buns and cinnamon rolls are sold.
