A Perfect Retreat on Deer Isle

We had a wonderful stay at Sherwood Cottage on Deer Isle. This was our second time staying at the property, and we loved it just as much as the first. We especially enjoyed the beautiful view, the peaceful surroundings, and the natural beauty of the island. Seeing deers along the road was very special. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back again.

Lovely waterfront cottage with awesome amenities!

We had a lovely stay at Sherwood Cottage. The kitchen was super well-equipped -- and we've stayed at a lot of vacation homes in Maine so we know to compare. The water views are stunning and it was delightful to have two kayaks provided for our use. The beds were clean and comfortable and the place was super well supplied (often when we stay somewhere we run out of paper towels and toilet paper but not here!) An extra bonus is a screened in porch so you can have dinner with a water view and not be bothered by mosquitoes.

Serene beautiful Water Front Cottage.

We had the pleasure of staying at the beautiful and peaceful Sherwood Cottage in Deer Isle, and it was truly a perfect getaway. The house itself is very comfortable, with everything you need to feel at home. What we loved most, however, was the serenity. The setting is wonderfully quiet, allowing you to simply relax and enjoy the gentle sounds of nature. The ocean view is breathtaking, especially at sunrise, sunset, and makes every moment feel special. Kayaking right from the property was a highlight, offering an unforgettable way to experience the coastline. Between the comfort of the home, the spectacular view, and the peaceful atmosphere, Sherwood Cottage is a place we can’t wait to return to.

Perfect spot for a Maine vacation

Deer Isle is a bit off the beaten path, so if you are seeking nightlife and tourist attractions, look elsewhere. If you are looking for classic Maine scenery, outdoor recreation, and some peace and quiet, Sherwood Cottage just might be for you. It’s a simple cottage, with nothing fancy about it. But it offers great views, a screened porch and a deck both overlooking the water. There’s direct, easy access to your own little piece of coaastline. There was plenty of room for two couples, a three-year-old, and an 91-year-old to enjoy two weeks of relaxation and family time.

Great location for kayaking, reading, enjoying spectacular views

The house is very comfortable, large deck and screen porch. Unfortunately the dishwasher was broken and there was no cable. Internet was weak. The kitchen was well stocked and cooking was easy. We were a party of 6 men, who love cooking and kayaking so the house overall was perfect.
