A lovely week!

Such a charming cottage and great hosts! We used The Nugget as our home base to explore the coast and eat amazing seafood. We definitely fell in love with Maine! Warren and Cindy paid great attention to detail in designing and decorating the cottage. I’d go back in a second!

A Gold Nugget, For Sure

Beside being super responsive, the owners provide quality amenities like marble countertops, silver flatware, Cuisinart cookware, Koler hardware fixtures, gorgeous hardwood floors, and thoughtful touches in personal care items. Quiet, peaceful, restorative environment adds to an incredible time at this property on Baileys island. So amazing!!

About the host

Hosted by warren Burroughs

We have been coming to bailey Island our whole lives and own a (summer only) cottage close by. We built Coveside (3br cottage) and renovated The Nugget (1br cottage) for the use of friends and family as we always have a crowd in the summer. We are renting them together or separately for parts of the summer.

Why they chose this property

Mackerel Cove is the prettiest and most authentic cove on the Maine coast in our opinion. We never get tired of watching the lobster and fishing boats come and go.
