Isle Au Haut cottage Rental Property Information

Stone Cottage, the summer home of Chief Justice Harlan Fiske Stone, overlooks the thoroughfare between Isle au Haut and Kimball's Island. Located on the edge of the village, the Cottage borders Acadia National Park. Stone Cottage is a large, rambling summer home with five bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, large kitchen, living room and dining room, a wrap around porch and generations of laughter, singing and wonderful memories. Dogs that will not worry the deer are welcome. Bicycles are recommended, some cars can be rented. When the mail boat leaves it takes the world with it. Isle au Haut, accessible by mail boat three times a day from Stonington, is the most beautiful island off the coast of Maine. Access is limited and controlled. It is six miles long, three miles wide, has five mountains, one road, several harbors and rugged cliffs. The village has: a grocery, tiny post office, one-room school house, town hall/library, church, softball field, wharf and fire station.

Life revolves around eating (lobster torn fresh from the sea at 6PM), reading (library open 3x a week), visiting (store open daily, church on Sunday, Bernadine's Beach Parties, pie sale, lobster bake, talent show), hiking, sailing, picnics at Boom Beach, swimming at Long Pond, playing games, and star-gazing. This is not a place for those who require external electronic stimulation. There is no television or telephone at the Cottage. The public phone is a 5 minute walk away. Isle au Haut has about 30 year-rounders and perhaps another 100 rusticators who treasure every second on the Island and dream nightly about their next visit.
