This cottage has been rented each summer for 29 years and has never received anything other than A 5 STAR a review…. I lost my “premier hosting” status last summer with VRBO, as a result of my website being hacked in early July. Vrbo has to deactivate my listing for 6 weeks, while they “ investigated”… which resulted in me losing new bookings through the VRBO site, for most of the remaining 2022 season. Because I received no new bookings through them, for that time period, they took away my premier host status. Westport Island is a 2 by 12 mile island connected by bridge to the mainland of Wiscasset. It is a 7 hour drive from New York and a 3 hour drive from Boston.This property is Also available for Events for up to 50 guests.
