Gem Island South Bristol, ME MLS #: 981606 Need a getaway? Gem Island is the quintessential summer pleasure. Leave life’s pressures on the mainland and experience the rewards of owning an island on the coast of Maine. Turn-of-the-century four bedroom cottage, a small boathouse, and a deepwater dock. The resources of South Bristol and Christmas Cove are just minutes away by boat. Ever since Christmas 1614, when Captain John Smith dropped anchor in this picturesque spot, South Bristol has been a favorite of sailors. The protection is excellent, and it is not far off the east-west path. Christmas Cove is a busy place, always full of movement, but it retains its wonderful, low-key atmosphere. Seals, mallards, and ospreys share the cove, along with lobster boats and sailboats.
