About this property

Private Shingled Cottage in Northeast Harbor Village: Walk to Acadia and Harbor

Set back from the road behind a screen of evergreen trees, our quiet cottage has 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, an eat-in kitchen that comfortably seats 4 and a living room with Brown Jordan wicker furniture. Along the front runs a thirty foot deck with a Brown Jordan dining set and wicker rocker and settee. From here, you can walk several blocks into Northeast Harbor and find fresh bread and pastries at four excellent food shops and a full range of groceries at Pine Tree Market. The harbor, Gilpatrick's Cove, an exceptional library, and the Neighborhood House with yoga are all 5-10 minute walks away. The town trails connecting to Acadia National Park start on the other end of Main Street. If you study Google maps, you will see that our lot sits in the exact midpoint of Northeast Harbor.
With new oak floors throughout and crisp white walls, the cottage is decorated with two dozen landscape paintings, the work of the owner. One bedroom as a queen, one a double bed, both withTempur-Pedic mattresses. The third has two custom oversized twin beds.
The wifi is strong enough to stream movies, and we have a wide screen TV and projector and screen, both rigged with an HDMI cable for your laptop. We also have a wide range of board games, puzzles, and books, with a good selection of children's books. The kitchen is equipped with a full range of gear: an oven, stove-top, griddle, microwave, dishwasher, washer and dryer.
If you dream about a vacation in which you can walk, bike or boat everywhere you wish to go, this is a great spot.

Charming Cottage in the Perfect Location

We had the most wonderful stay in this charming cottage. It was in the perfect location for our family and Chris and his wife were wonderful hosts and available to help with anything that came up. The home has everything you need and even some added perks like a children's books, a puzzle table and puzzles for rainy days. We loved our stay and would certainly return.

Charming Cottage in Northeast Harbor

We stayed for a week in this renovated cottage in NEH. Te house has a great location in town, close to main street and our favorite restaurants, shops and the harbor. Everything is walking distance. We rent houses in NEH every year and the results can be a mixed bag, but this House is impeccably maintained and very clean. Owner was great to deal with. We will stay again!

About the host

Hosted by CHRISTOPHER ZAMORE

Host profile image
My wife fell in love with Mount Desert during childhood vacations. I came to Northeast Harbor during college summers to teach sailing and eventually manage the local sailing club. We are both teachers and love spending vacations here with our three children, biking, hiking, and boating. We love walking into town or down to the marina in the early evenings to see what new boats have sailed in.

Why they chose this property

We bought this cottage because of its excellent location, its large private lot, and the way its plantings preserved its privacy. We like to bike on the carriage trails, launch kayaks down at the Sea Street dock, walk to the beautiful public gardens at the head of the harbor, or stop in at McGrath's for a coffee and the local paper.

What makes this property unique

Some of the most important gifts we take away from vacations are the sounds we hear. From our cottage, you will be surrounded by birdsong from the trees that surround the property, children's voices from the children's center up the street, and families walking or biking into town. When the wind shifts east, you'll hear the gong at the harbor entrance and fog horns out on the Western Way.
