About this property

Dip Into Oceanfront Luxe Home w/ Pool. Group Getaways!

Welcome to our large family reunion-friendly retreat, designed to cater to every generation, from the tiniest giggles of babies to the warm laughter of seasoned adults. Located next door to the iconic Prospect Harbor Lighthouse, this exceptional haven invites you to create unforgettable memories in an idyllic setting. Perched right on the waterfront with an unparalleled view of the harbor and open ocean beyond, our home has a sprawling patio with al fresco dining and a vast stretch of lawn for for family games and dog frolicking. The inviting pool has spectacular views of the ocean. This retreat is a haven for stargazers. Let the lighthouse guide your way to a vacation full of great memories!


Four bedrooms are comfortably appointed. The main bedroom with king bed and the large ensuite has access to a private patio with the ocean view. The kids will love the breezy bunk room, it too has great harbor views. The third bedroom has two twin beds and has views of the large lawn, perfect for outdoor games, with apple trees beyond. The fourth bedroom has a queen bed and a view of the lawn and orchard. One new pullout sofa bed is set in the den at the far end of the house and the other new pullout sofa bed is in the living room. Both are in front of more patio doors – leave them open at night to feel the breeze and smell the fresh sea air.

The kitchen and large dining room are fully stocked with every appliance, pot, pan and dish you will need to accommodate your large gathering.
But outdoors is where you will want to be! It is spectacular! Expansive, FLAT lawns surround this home. Perfect for games. Easy for walking or setting up your chairs to watch the lobster boats come and go. All of this and there is more – an OCEAN FRONT OUTDOOR POOL. Set right on the edge of Prospect Harbor with a roomy deck to accommodate all of your lounge chairs. What a spot!

Late at night, its time for your Midnight Dip. Tiptoe out of the sliding glass doors where the pool is waiting. There, you can float on your back and count the hundreds of stars -- so close you can touch them. Everyone is asleep. There is no sound but the nearby waves.

Visit Bar Harbor - a beautiful drive from Prospect Harbor (about 41 miles) from one peninsula to the one next door. Or take the ferry across. The ferry is located only five minutes from this home in Winter Harbor.

If home is not large enough for all your friends & family, Joy Cottage is located directly across the street. You could easily add another 6 to your reservation!

This home is located all on one level. Easy access for everyone!

Great Maine stay!

My family and I traveled with friends to Maine all the way from Texas and New Mexico. This house was the highlight of our trip! Just a beautiful spot. We were very comfortable. The weather was too cool to use the pool, but we still had a great stay here.

Amazing and remote stay

We loved this house! Very clean and spacious. The pool is huge and was a big hit with our kids! The house came stocked with all the essentials in the kitchen and bathroom (like coffee filters, oil, salt, sugar, shampoo, conditioner, etc) which was perfect on arrival day. We loved the quaint town and remote location. This is a wonderful home, plus check in and check out was a breeze!

Lovely stay in Prospect Harbor

This home is very large, well stocked and very well cared for. We thoroughly enjoyed the large yard, patio and pool on the beautiful harbor. When we had a technical issue in the home, the property manager was immediately available to work with us to resolve. The home is fairly remote with the drive to Bar Harbor taking about one hour.

The Quiet Side of the Park

The pictures online don’t do justice to the spaciousness of the house. Wonderful location. Large pool. Only drawback was that the pullout couch mattress is quite uncomfortable, and the showers were tepid, not hot. But we had a great time here.

Bliss

This property is amazing. It reminds me of the sprawling houses you see of old time stars homes of Beverly Hills. We had our family and our grown kids and our grand kids. We do a one week get together every year and this property made it everyone’s all time favorite place. One day we drove to Acadia Park then to Bar Harbor. But honestly we all wanted to just enjoy the pool, the vast lawn and the fabulous harbor and lighthouse view. I am a morning person and sitting in the back yard and watching the lobster boats with my morning coffee was the best. The late nighters loved having cocktails at the back yard table facing the lighthouse. This place is amazing. The owners were always there ready to answer questions. Great yard for games and children to run.

Fabulous Location!

Huge home definitely suitable for large family or two couples! 3-4 minute walk to easy access small swimming area. Views views views!! Pristine pool. Place is sooo clean and thoughtful things to both parties - furniture throws, extra bedding, tons of kitchen amenities, soaps, laundry stuff, food wraps. 10 minutes to Winter Harbor for breakfast/gourmet coffees and grocery store with fresh seafood. We ate in 3 nights because of accessible excellent quality seafood delivered daily to Winter Harbor Provisions store. Less than 10 minutes to Scoodic scenic drive. We did ferry to Bar Harbor and toured around Mt Desert Island but final vote is that the Schoodic area of the park including campground is the best. Price appears hogh at forst but if you see how huge the house and grounds and exterior seating areas are it is absolutely understandable. Two couples can definitely share this home and have plenty of separate space. Only tiny gripe cause i have a bad back is that hot water setting could be warmer.

Amazing Maine getaway

The views are amazing. The kids loved being near a lighthouse and having breakfast at the little table by the water. The sunrise and sunsets on the water were beautiful. The property is huge and well kept we enjoyed playing the lawn games and watching the kids running and playing and talking to the decoys as if they were real pets. The patio was great and the table setup was large enough for all of us to sit together and eat, play games, talk, and enjoy the sea air and the view. I wish we could have enjoyed the pool more. But mother nature wasn’t kind and turned the pool green. The pool guy was there 3 times during our 4-night stay trying to clear it up. We did manage one afternoon to go for a short swim. So, all is good. The house was well stocked with all the essentials in the kitchen and bathrooms. Rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. It was peaceful and relaxing. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home.

The yard was wonderful for our family to play games with a beautiful view of the harbor and ocean. The only small gripe is the coverings on all the furniture becoming easily out of place and a bit annoying to constantly fix. We would definitely come back however.
