Welcome to Broken Compass, where time stands still, and all sense of direction is lost. Come home again, to a time when you used to run around barefoot for the summer and nothing else mattered. Come home to a magical island in the middle of Maine that time forgot, and which has remained the same since your parents were kids. Welcome to Frye Island, welcome to your unforgettable summer vacation, welcome to Broken Compass.
Broken Compass is one of only 450 homes located on Frye Island in popular Sebago Lake in Southern Maine. The island is a seasonal resort destination that is only open from May through October.
The cottage, although renovated, is still an older cottage that is described as perfectly imperfect. If you are looking for a brand-new house, this is not the place, rather this is a place where kids can run around with a little sand on their feet and parents can relax and unwind with their favorite beverage on the covered front porch as they soak in the summer. Cook like a pro in our kitchen and after dinner gather the family for an epic board game night or just relax and watch a streaming movie on the 65" smart TV with ROKU and DirecTV. Gather around the firepit at night and enjoy s'mores and your favorite songs or stories with the kids and their best friends.
**Upon booking, you will receive a welcome message with a pdf version of our Welcome Guide. Please make sure to read in order to learn how to check-in and enjoy your overall experience.**
