The Red Cottage has been a summer home to island families for over 100 years. This well-kept cottage with all the right updates is at Evergreen Landing, one of Peaks Island's most tranquil and idyllic settings, far from summer multitudes. The large L-shaped porch, in like new condition is the perfect place for morning coffee, family dinners, games on a rainy day. A stone path meanders down past flowers and front porches to a pocket beach. There are two bedrooms, one large enough to sleep 4, the others with views to the water and Diamond Islands and out to Hussey Sound. Simple and unspoiled, just right.
