Island Perfection!
Location was perfect for our wedding at the Chebeague Island Inn - couldn’t have been better! Every bedroom has an appointed bathroom, making it easy for a group of friends to stay. Highly recommend!

Dusty, dirty and cluttered
We found the Sunset house very dusty and the bathrooms were not clean. The refrigerator was not wiped out and there was mold on the door seal. There was no space for renters to put their own food and minimal space in the freezer to use. We contacted the owner who wrote back that she would refund our cleaning fee but after reaching out twice in almost four weeks she has not responded or refunded the fee.

Post wedding family week
My daughter got married at the Chebeague island inn last week and we stayed at the sunset house for a week. It was wonderful!! Fantastic location and plenty of space for a large group. We had a lot of out of town family there for the wedding. Loved all the bathrooms off of almost every bedroom. Location can to be beat and the water views are amazing!! Sunsets great too!!

Great property in a perfect location
We stayed with a group of friends for a wedding at the Inn, which is right across the street. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable. We really wanted to use the large fire pit, but didn't have the opportunity due to weather. There were a couple small issues that probably only happened because we were the first guests of the season (no hot water upstairs when we arrived) but the host was very responsive and took care of everything promptly. Would definitely stay again!

Why they chose this property

The island is a peaceful retreat for those who enjoy quiet reflections or curling up with a good book in the hammock.

Facing west, the house embraces a panorama of coastal waters and the rolling fairways of the island's golf course. At the end of the day, relax on the deck and you'll appreciate why it's named Sunset House.

Sunset House is a family run business. Inside you will find unique mementos of retired Merchant Marine, Captain James KomLosy and our family's travels from around the world.

Come and join us on beautiful Chebeague Island.

Sincerely,

-- The KomLosy Family

What makes this property unique

According to one source, the name Chebeague is Native American for "Cold Spring Water", while another says it means "Island of many Springs".

The island is one of the so-called 'Calendar Islands' of Casco Bay. Originally it was thought that there were 365 islands in the bay, but it is now discovered that there are 222. Click here to visit the Chebeague Historical Society.

In the 1920s the Sunset House was an annex of the Hillcrest Hotel, now the Chebeague Island Inn. The brass room numbers you will find on each guest room attest to the former days when nearly fifteen boarding houses, and three hotels entertained island guests!

By the late 1800s people began to visit Maine in a phenomenon sometimes known as the "rusticators" movement. Cottages, Rooming houses, and Inns were scattered around Casco Bay and serviced by steamboats from Portland where crowds of tourists from the industrial cities of New England could get back to nature for a few days or weeks.

Chebeague Island enjoys a long tradition of providing Island Hospitality. In the late 1800s, stone sloop captains (famous for supplying granite up and down the East Coast), began opening their homes to mainland visitors. The Sunset House honors the tradition with a model sloop in their sign (above).
