Perfect Quiet Family Getaway

Orchid Harbor was perfect for my 3 week escape from life. Bailey Island is quiet and the house is comfortable and accommodating for family and friends.The outdoor seating along the ocean was our favorite place to be.

We (8 adults) had a wonderful long weekend. We especially enjoyed the grassy lot across the road. Coffee in the morning, croquet , lunch on the picnic table and sunset by the fire pit. Perfect.

Absolutely amazing and breathtaking

We enjoyed our weekend tremendously, especially being right on the beach, with miles of private access to the rocky shores to search for treasures and sea glass! Thank you so much!

4 adults (50), Mon-Fri stay. Great location within easy walking distance ( 0.5 miles) of two popular (touristy) restaurants. The waterfront lot across the quiet road had great views of the working harbor and sunsets. Very clean older home with a few additions over time that had private places for quiet reading or just watching life in the harbor. Bedrooms are upstairs in the main rental, please note these are steep stairs - doable, but slightly challenging when carrying things up/down.

Socked in fog

Property was great! Plenty of room and everything we needed. Two things that could have been improved- no fog! And more days there! Owner has no control over those!
