Beautiful, secluded property

Great property and location to relax and unwind after days exploring Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We enjoyed staying here for 3 nights in June. As a travel agent, I would definitely recommend this property.

Beautiful Cabin!

This quaint cabin sits in the most beautiful setting! You are headed to the perfect R&R getaway to unwind and unplug. We spent our days enjoying Acadia and relaxing here at night. Don't miss the sunrises! We were visited by deer one morning and heard loons on our last morning. The cabin has everything you need in the bathrooms, including toiletries and towels and lots of linens, extra blankets and pillows for the bedroom. The washer/dryer came in handy too. We cooked a lot, brought our own groceries and appreciated the well-stocked and appointed kitchen and open concept living room that looks out to the water. We took advantage of the fire ring and seating by the water. The difference in tides is crazy to watch (we learned it's a 12 foot difference) and changes your view. We had rented kayaks dropped off at the cabin. It's not a seamless walk from the shore to the water - it's more of a drop that required some creative water entry, but we made it. Like another renter noted, GPS stops before you get to the cabin. Once you feel like you've entered private property, stay straight on the dirt road. We loved our stay here and couldn't have asked for a more peaceful, serene location to enjoy Acadia and the surrounding area.

Spectacular view

The cabin was nice and in a beautiful location. Not a far drive to all the attractions. Our only complaint would be the heating system. When it kicked on it made a very high pitched sound that would continue while it ran. It woke us up almost every night due to its proximity to the bedroom. This may not bother most people but we are both light sleepers and feel its worth mentioning. The waterfront is beautiful. We spent alot of time enjoying the view. The bed/mattress was just ok. We would stay again if we did not have to run the heat.

Maine Honeymoon

My wife and I can’t say enough about this place! Just watching the sunrise from the chairs behind the cabin was well worth staying here and our favorite part about the property itself. The cabin is great for couples looking to visit the area. Very easy to get around, especially going to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor but there are also some great places near the cabin without the tourist crowds. We would highly recommend others stay here.

Very quiet

My husband and I used this property as a base to explore Bar Harbor, Acadia, Camden and more. The house was great for two people- nothing fancy, just comfortable. My only caution to future renters is finding the property for the first time in the dark. GPS ends about .5 miles from the house. Continue even though there are numerous Private Property signs. The road will fork in front of a bank of mailboxes. You need to take the right one(gravel road).

Great base for adventures or for just hanging out

My family of four used the house mostly as a base for visiting Acadia. It was an easy 25 minute drive to get to the park. We loved the setting of the house-it was nice to come back to the quiet, secluded setting after the crowds at Acadia. As the mom, I appreciated all the basic amenities that were included, such as bedding , towels, soap, shampoos, lotion, coffee, sugar, and etc. All of us wished we could have just hung out more, but our time was too short. Thanks for sharing this lovely house!

Serene, peaceful getaway in the forest

The photos on VRBO did not do this adorable cottage justice! It was much larger and stylish than we expected. Spacious, well designed, and comfortable. The kind of place a writer needs to finish their novel. Or a couple who needs a place to unwind from their hectic lives. The cottage was well-stocked with kitchen staples, towels, dishes, pots and pans, and basics for baking/cooking. Fridge, microwave, toaster oven, coffeepot, all work great. Both bathrooms are beautiful, well-lit, plenty of towels - stocked with shampoo, soap and body wash too. The grill was easy to use. Plenty of comfortable seating indoors and outdoors. We saw a pair of quiet rabbits each day. Songs from the Hermit Thrush were like music in the forest. Soft sounds of the shoreline were soothing. We highly recommend this adorable cottage to others who are seeking a quiet refuge from life.

Stunning Acadia Area Waterfront Home

My husband and I stayed here for a week and it was absolutely perfect. We loved everything about this home and the owners have it fully stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The view was breathtaking and we enjoyed the fire pit in evenings and the beach area at low tide. The house is close enough to Acadia and all the fun areas to explore, but private enough that it was so peaceful. The house was clean and the owner was great about communicating. We highly recommend this home.

The pictures don’t do it justice!

This was a wonderful cabin. It is very well appointed and made for a great stay. It is about 30 (easy) minutes from Bar Harbor. It is well equipped. It has a great view of the sound with a fire pit and a nice seating area. Both porches are great. One is screened in with a small table for eating outside. The other porch is great for reading and just enjoying the view and the outdoors.

Perfect vacation home

We had a wonderful time staying here. The house is well located for visiting Acadia and for local hikes. It's a really beautiful setting, with a view of the water and lots of wildlife to watch. Aaron and Jen were great hosts - helpful, quick to respond and they had given a lot of care to equipping the kitchen and household with everything we could possibly need. We'd love to come back and stay again some time. Highly recommended!

BEAUTIFUL VIEWS, SERENE

So enjoyed our time here. House was clean, well stocked with everything we needed and more. The views are amazing, the chairs by the water were used for many hours of relaxing along with the deck and screened in porch. Very private and secluded. Bed very comfortable. If your first time there pick up your groceries first etc. Little bit of a trek in and out. (Walmart on the way) If you want Lobster close Ruth and Stumpy's was great. If you go to Bar Harbor, The Chart Room ( Best 2 meals ever) Try the Lobster stew. Would stay again.

Lamoine Visit

My wife and I had a wonderful week at this special cottage in Lamoine. Enjoyed walking every morning and the view of the sunrise is spectacular! Spotless little cottage with everything you need. The bed was comfortable and TV great. Played games on the porch every afternoon. Grilled out most nights but also enjoyed Finn's Irish Pub and Helen's Restaurant. I shot a 7 on the 17th hole at Kebo Golf Course in Bar Harbor beating President Taft by 20! We would definately recommend this house and plan to return. One caution drive slow on the road and watch for the deer they are everwhere!

Perfect peaceful home in lovely surroundings

This is a lovely home in a beautiful part of Maine. The house overlooks the bay. We enjoyed eating our meals looking at the water. It is very quiet. From the house, you can't see other houses. It was a nice place to kayak--you can rent one and have it delivered. We spotted bunnies, deer, and wild turkeys around the house. The house has nice furniture. Although we didn't work, there is a nice area to work in and good wi-fi. The kitchen is well equipped. We brought quite a lot of our own kitchen equipment, which we did not take out of the box. The owners have been thoughtful about providing everything a visitor may need. The potted herbs just outside the door is a lovely touch. The area is very nice. You can go to Acadia National Park and the Blue Hill peninsula. Ellsworth was also nicer than we expected. It has all the big supermarkets, but also some nice shops and restaurants. Lemoine has a small beach. We had a really nice stay. Highly recommend it.

Quiet retreat in the woods

The cottage was so quiet and extremely clean. The views of the bay were amazing. Everything you can think of is stocked for you in case you forget anything home. The owners truly care about the stay you will have at their cottage, it clearly shows in every little touch. Will definately return and recommend if you are looking for a quiet and clean place to vacation away from all the tourist areas. Wonderful town and cottage.
