About this property

New 3 Bedroom Ensuite Beach Cottage

Come enjoy this newly constructed beach cottage that boasts 3 bedrooms all with private baths. Located in the charming and picturesque village of East Blue Hill, ME. Tucked into a peaceful cove and surrounded by pine trees this home is the perfect place to relax and recharge. This spot is truly unique in that it has access to one of the few beaches in the area.
Enjoy unforgettable sunrises and sunsets over the ocean from the deck or wander down to the beach to swim, play in the sand or just take in the view!
It is a short four mile trip into Blue Hill Village which offers local restaurants, a wine shop, bakeries, a farmers market, art galleries, shopping, hiking and many more coastal Maine attractions. Acadia National Park is 30 miles away.
The cottage sleeps 6 people, though can easily accommodate more with cots. Upon request a pack and play, high chair and other child necessities are available. The house is fully furnished with all appliances including a dishwasher and washer and dryer. There is Wifi and a flat screen Smart Roku television..
A water filtration system has been installed in this house. The tap water has a higher level of arsenic than recommended by the EPA. You can use the spigot on the sink for drinking and cooking water, and a Zero Water Filter for bathrooms is available for drinking. Bathing, dish washing and laundry are not a problem. Higher arsenic levels and radon levels are common in this area because of the large amounts of granite that we have. A radon mitigations system has also been installed.

Perfect place to stay

My husband and I and my sister and her husband stayed here for 4 days. It was a nice quiet location outside of the busier tourist zone of Bar Harbor but a pleasant 40 minute drive to Acadia National Park. We loved that each couple had a bathroom off the bedroom plus another handy bathroom on the main floor (actually there are 3 bedrooms each with its own bathroom). The deck was a great place to sit and look over the bay and everything was nicely decorated and comfortable inside. We made 3 dinners and found the kitchen well-stocked. In addition we were able to make a couple of picnic lunches and used the small cooler provided. We were really able to kick back and relax here!

This property is the greatest!!!! Located directly across the road from the water. Sliding glass doors and deck have an amazing view to watch the tide roll in and out. Accommodations were perfect and the host seemed to think of everything a renter needed. A10plus

Perfect

We loved our stay at the Beach House. We are a group of 5 senior citizens that travel together. The home was beautiful! It was well stocked for cooking, comfortable beds and a stunning vies of the ocean inlet. We loved watching the tide go in and out, also enjoyed walking the road and the view along that. The farm across the street and up the hill that raises sheep was fun to see.

First time Maine visitors

This home was the perfect spot for us to explore the coast of Maine for the first time. The town of Blue Hill is close by and has anything you might need for your stay. Acadia NP/Bar Harbor area is only about 40min drive and easy to access for a day trip. The benefits to staying here is that you’re right on a quiet little cove. With access to the beach and great views. Plus the home is so immaculate. Really. It had everything and everything was good quality and in great working order. Better than any rental home I’ve ever stayed in. To the reviewer who put the cove beach in a negative light- the access says ‘private’ but we found we shared it with cars who parked along the road across the street from the house- but never on our side of the road. We were here Labor Day weekend and never thought a few visitors to be a hindrance to us or our enjoyment of the beach and view. We would certainly stay in this house again given the chance to return to Maine. We thought it was very quiet with a good mix of town activity. If you’re on the fence about staying here- I highly recommend it!

Modern house overlooking Curtsi Cove

My wife, adult son and I had a wonderful time at the house. It was spotless; the appliances were all up to date. The porch faces a salt-water cove where you can wade or swim. At night, there is no light polluting the sky. When you look up, it's like having your own private planetarium. It took us a while the first night to realize the "cloud" above us was the Milky Way. Because there are abundant woods nearby, hummingbird feedrs would be a nice addition.

This was the perfect house for our family reunion get away. The location in East Blue Hill, across from Curtis Cove was the hub of activity. The layout was perfect. The deck has amazing views and each bedroom having its own bath is the cherry on the top.

AVOID THIS HOST AND PROPERTY

AVOID THIS PROPERTY! Our stay was RUINED by the HOST of this property. She lives next door and came over 4 times in the first 24 hours. She was nasty from the start because we interpreted her house rules no pet policy to mean no pets in the house. Since the weather is beautiful in August, the dogs were content to remain outside in their kennels when they were not walking with us on the beach or swimming in the ocean. Our daughter even slept outside with them one night because the house was too hot. The host at first did not believe we would not bring them in the house. Once she realized that we were serious about them remaining outside, rather than be relieved at our respect for her home, she tried to extort additional cash from us. Since asking for cash is against the VRBO policy for money transactions, we contacted VRBO for support, and the host responded by cancelling our reservation mid-week and refusing a refund. It was obvious that this was about money not the dogs because she allowed them to stay for three days before kicking us out because we contacted VRBO rather than pay her cash. We still question what the cash was for if the dogs were remaining outside. There was no cleaning needed, no damage was done to the yard, and we picked up after the dogs when we walked them. One dog was even a SERVICE DOG, but she didn’t care that our keeping him outside was out of respect for her home. According to VRBO policy, we could have brought him into the house without notifying her, but we chose to keep him outside. Our dogs NEVER ENTERED HER HOUSE. We also took our shoes off when entering the house and left it clean when we departed, despite the abrupt way in which our vacation was cancelled mid-week. We still washed the dishes, removed the bedding and emptied the fridge as expected upon departure. The house itself could be improved with air conditioning and a space for renters to keep their food. All the cabinets were full to the point where you felt someone had left for the day and was going to return. Our stuff had to remain on the counter. The TV did not work well. It had a blurry double image, so we used our own devices instead. The beach is not private but is frequented by many people. Cars parked up and down the road at all hours of the day and night. If you are looking for a quiet get-away where you can be left alone, PICK ANOTHER PLACE.

Beautiful Clean Cottage with Incredible Views

I can't begin to express how beautiful this property and its private beach are. The house is clean, perfectly laid out and has everything you need for a week away from home. The views of the private beach are spectacular. My daughters loved exploring the beach during low tide. We saw eagles and loons regularly and witnessed one of the most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen. While we took two day trips to Bar Harbor/Acadia, we felt that East Blue Hill had everything we needed - beautiful hikes, great restaurants, a nice grocery store and the cutest toy store I have ever been to. Sherry, the owner, was very attentive and willing to answer any questions that arose. Our week in the cottage was special beyond words and we can't wait to return!

Peaceful and Scenic!

The home is ideally located, wonderful view and very clean! Our only challenge was finding out the check in process as the owner did leave the doors open for us but we did not know it would be open as there was no communication after we texted and called. We really appreciated how well stocked the kitchen was, how clean the house was and of course, the view! Lovely experience...

Wonderful home to call our own for the week!

We had a great time. Sherry has the house fully equipped with anything anyone might need. The view of the water was special in the morning and evening. Given we were there after Labor Day, restaurants were closed for the season or due to lack of help. We did need to travel to get to a store. I would recommend stocking up and cooking at home. We appreciated the opportunity to stay in such a lovely home
