Welcome to Pine Island Retreat: a 1.3-acre off-grid island in the middle of Long Lake (Maine). We have thoughtfully designed this enchanted island for groups who want something completely different. Pine island isn't just a rental, it's an EXPERIENCE! It’s your very own private island reserved just for you and your guests. No neighbors. No noise. No crowds. Just your group, crystal-clear water, fire-lit nights, and total freedom. Unplug, unwind & experience life like never before. Pets welcomed.
The space
Whether it’s a family getaway, friends’ trip, or a once-a-year reunion, this is the kind of place people talk about long after they leave. This is an outdoor-first experience, not a sit-inside rental.
Days here look like:
Swimming off private beaches in clear, calm water, sunbathing on a hammock suspended over the lake, paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, exploring,
Lounging on Tentsile hammocks and in shaded coves, picking wild blueberries, walking mossy trails, breezy naps...
Nights:
Zero light pollution for unreal stargazing, Socializing by the water, loons in the background, multiple fire pits for smores, dance parties, light up bocce ball & cornhole games, movies on the portable screen and projector, night swims, night time paddleboarding with headlamps.
There is no standing water on the island so that means ZERO mosquitos!!!
Guest access
The entire island to yourself. No other guests. No interruptions. No neighbors.
1.3 acres, docks, cabin, trails, coves, beaches, fire pits, hammocks, wild blueberry patches, bald eagles, a freedom you have probably never experienced until now.
Getting here is easy with several options:
1. Use our complimentary boat taxi service either from the town dock or our nearby mainland property
2. Bring your own boat and dock up at the island. There are multiple boat rental companies to choose from locally.
We’ll coordinate everything with you in advance for a smooth arrival.
We also offer overflow parking & pay per load laundry at our nearby on-shore location.
EMERGENCIES: a staff member is always available for quick retrieval from the island.

You won’t find granite countertops or smart TVs here, just quiet, pine trees, and the kind of peace you forgot existed. Maybe you didn't even know it existed.
