About the host
Hosted by warren Burroughs
We have been coming to bailey Island our whole lives and own a (summer only) cottage close by. We built Coveside (3br cottage) and renovated The Nugget (1br cottage) for the use of friends and family as we always have a crowd in the summer. We are renting them together or separately for parts of the summer.
Why they chose this property
Mackerel Cove is the prettiest and most authentic cove on the Maine coast in our opinion. We never get tired of watching the lobster and fishing boats come and go.
