Beautiful Oceanfront Apartment, scenic views and water access

Off the dining area, there is a deck with 4 chairs and 2 small tables where you can sit and enjoy the breeze off the water and look out onto Casco Bay. There is also a small grill located on the deck. Outside there are stairs down to the water, where you can walk along the rocks, go for a swim, or go paddling on one of the kayaks available for use with rental. If you prefer to stay on land, Little John Island provides a wonderful setting for walking or biking (bikes are provided). There is ample parking allowing for friends and family to come join you.

Great Stay in the Anchor Loft
Anchor Loft was meticulously maintained, extremely comfortable and provided great views of Casco Bay. Great location: walkable to Little John Preserve, easy bike ride to the Ferry / Chebeague Island, and quick drive into Portland or Freeport. Paul was helpful and very responsive in supporting our use of the bikes and kayaks provided with the unit. Very enjoyable and relaxing stay on Little John Island!!

Mother Son Adventure
We had the most peaceful time getting away to beautiful Long John Island and Paul and Linda made it possible! Their place is perfection. My 2 year old and I stayed for 10 days and everything from the moment we got there made me feel safe, at peace, and calm. I was slightly nervous being alone with my son and without my husband and I left in tears bc it was so magical I wanted to stay longer!! Every detail of their home is perfect. Clean, well laid out, bigger than pictures show, and the location is ideal. Paul and Linda thought of everything and all of our needs were met! Paul even helped me one morning put a bike seat on one of his bikes for my son so we could bike around the.m neighborhood. It was close to Freeport and Portland, and we spent 10 full days adventuring, hiking, biking, playing in the tide pools, and then coming home to a peaceful, restful place everyday at the anchor loft. I pray to return one day with my husband so he can share in the magic both my son and I felt there! Thank you so much!!!

Anchor Loft vacation
The owner has provided everything one could need -- from heating pad to washer/dryer, great kitchen utensils, basic cooking condiments, and a very comfy bed. And then there were the extra goodies in the refrigerator...! I appreciated the quiet location for writing and reflection, and the nature preserve on the island that is within walking distance. A sweet spot on a very small island.

Lovely waterfront getaway
We had a wonderful mini retreat at the charming anchor loft! The loft had everything we needed, carefully designed, furnished, and organized, spotlessly clean, and with views of water everywhere. The hosts were available and responsive. We enjoyed easy access to walking trails and time sitting on the porch. We loved this place!

View!
Where to start??!! The view and the location of the property are so beautiful. The apartment is cozy yet spacious and offers plenty of windows and a balcony where you can look out at the water while sipping your morning coffee. The property is located in walking distance to the preserve which is a huge bonus! There’s a beach on the property where you can go and swim,collect seashells,crab or just relax! Paul and Linda are so welcoming and very accommodating! We fell in love with Maine during our stay and we highly recommend booking this property so you can experience and explore all that Maine has to offer!

Beautiful Spot on the Bay
While the pictures are great - they did not do this beautiful spot justice. The apartment is clean, open with plenty of room and anything you need. The deck overlooks beautiful Casco Bay, and at low tide you have access to your own little rocky beach area on this quiet little island. Paul and his wife were great, and very responsive whenever we needed something. The centralized location was perfect for us to site see many places in a short period of time. I will definitely be back - thank you for a great experience!

Great loft in a beautiful location
My husband and I really enjoyed our relaxing stay at the Anchor Loft. The location is absolutely beautiful! Private and peaceful, yet convenient to restaurants and shopping. The area is great for biking, and also several walking trails are close by. The loft was spotless, and included everything we needed for our stay. The bed was comfortable, and the loft is well designed with plenty of drawers and closet space. I especially enjoyed the ocean breeze while sitting on the deck! We will be back!
