The primary bedroom, a recent addition boasting high ceilings and abundant natural light, provides a serene retreat. Upstairs, discover three additional bedrooms, one of which is connected to another. An unplugged bunk house with two twin beds, nestled in a separate cottage on the grounds, offers a fun escape for big kids during the warmer months.
Outside, the sandy beach and private dock beckon for boating, fishing, and waterfront adventures. Explore the island on foot or by bike, as Spruce Head Island offers scenic pathways and friendly surroundings.

Our family group of 7 loved our stay at Berry Cottage. It’s a little bit cozy upstairs - some will have to walk through another bedroom to get to theirs, or to get to a bathroom. But the location is amazing, it’s very quiet, the beds are really comfortable and the cottage is clean, well loved — but not overly precious like some — and nicely equipped. Management folks are very helpful and responsive. The dock and beach are a huge plus for swimming and boating.

The property could use a notebook with local information like passwords to WiFi and codes to outbuilding. Aside from this it was great.
