10/10 Fantastiskt

Perfect for relaxing, reading, hiking, eating, drinking or anything else.
My wife and I took our 5 kids (3 of whom are teens) away for a couple of nights and took a chance as we knew nothing of Matinicus or this house.
Begin: a lovely and peaceful scenic ferry ride on the state ferry. 2 hours and not a single complaint.
Arrive: no Wifi. No data. Still no complaints. A few minutes after arriving our family hopped into the back of a pick up truck (new to the kids) and took a short ride on to the cottage.
Everything was clean, organized and quite possible the most picturesque place I’ve ever stayed.
Bikes for the kids. Outdoor and indoor games to keep em busy.
Settled: we spent day one on a sandy beach by ourselves and day two on another sandy beach. Both were pristine.
The evenings allowed for the most invedible star gazing one could imagine. The sky was littered with bright stars and a few planets to boot.
Mr Mitchell brought us lobsters each night before dinner at a very fair price. I think we consumed more than we could count.
There is a bakery nearby with delicious homemade cookies and baked goods. You can grab a can of soda or an ice cream sandwich but not much else. We brought food for our stay. The water on the island is safe however we were favoring bottled water so you may want to consider bringing a few jugs. Otherwise the water is fine.
We hiked to The West Point for an amazing sunset and enjoyed the east side for sunrises.
If go carts and boardwalks are your thing, this is not fOr you. No restaurant. No bar.
Just scenery, birds, peace, fresh lobster, pristine beaches and plenty to just take in.
