Property details:

1860 Historic Home with Living Room with Dining Area, Entry Room, Kitchen, Two Queen Bedrooms, One Double Bedroom. Shower and claw foot tub. Three decks to enjoy or grill out on. Private entrance. High speed fiber internet!!

Two unit house, owners occupy other half of house. The house sits on a large yard with beautiful gardens. Plenty of room to stretch out. Private fenced in side yard devoted to your family and your pets.

House overlooks Union River Bay across the street. Newbury Neck Road is a mecca for cyclists, walkers, beach combers, sunbathers and surf casters or for just enjoying the grand view of Acadia National Park's mountains at the beach. The beautiful, family friendly, quiet, pebble sand public beach is located less than 1 mile from the property and offers free parking and pets are welcome. The beach is a hidden jewel in an area where public access to beaches is hard to find.

Perry's Lobster Shack restaurant is right near the beach where you can bring your own bottle of wine and enjoy fresh Maine lobster, crab rolls, clams and ice cream on the pier overlooking beautiful views of harbor boats and Acadia National Park. If you'd prefer, you can bring the lobsters back to the house to cook them yourself in the lobster cooker we've provided for your culinary use. Five minutes away in the village of Surry is a full convenience store named Surry Store with groceries, snacks and a full menu of takeout pizza and subs. Also in Surry is a gourmet ice cream shop named Pugnuts - a great place to grab a treat at the end of a long day!

Rental property is adjacent to Blue Hill Heritage Trust Land scenic trails with Furth Wildlife Sanctuary and the Talalay Nature Sanctuary each having two miles of maintained trails. Just down the road is Carter Nature preserve which has .6 miles of trails along the shoreline. Blue Hill Mountain is nearby with 2.5 miles of trails up a scenic mountain with views of Blue Hill Bay, Acadia, and Camden Hills.

Surry and Blue Hill are just far enough away to get away from the bustle of Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Come back from a long day of sight seeing, hiking or biking on Acadia's 47 miles of carriage trails and relax on the peaceful front porch of this beautiful, historic home.

This house is beauttiful; an old historic home; surrounded by gorgeous flowering gardens; a view of Morgan Bay; lots of books;games; and located in a great spot to take advantage of Bar Harbor as well as Stonington. Rebecca and Joseph just could not be nicer and have provided you with absolutely everything that you need. I LOVED this house! Fenced in private yard for the dog. Sit and watch the fireflies at night. You will absolutely not regret staying at the Lobster Dog House - but you probably will regret leaving it and driving away…….

What a wonderful place to stay. Joseph and Rebecca saw to it we had everything we needed and shared many extra special touches. Beautiful property. The location is great if you are looking to explore Acadia as well as many other villages and towns. Loved having access to various peninsulas and thanks to our host’s recommendations we visited places that were not on our radar. Would come back in a heartbeat!

The property and our hosts were just fabulous! It was quiet, centrally located to Bar Harbor, Acadia Park, Blue Hill and Ellsworth. Our hosts, as stated, live in one half of the house, but aside from greeting us upon arrival we did not see or hear them. They were very responsive to a few messages we sent with questions. I prefer property owners to be nearby personally, which is one reason we chose this property, especially as we were three women traveling together (although Maine is a lot safer than where we all came from)! Hurricane Lee came through while we were there and our hosts made sure we were well taken care of with flashlights, generator, etc. We only lost power for a short time, but had everything we would have needed. The house is lovely, large, comfortable and nicely appointed. We enjoyed both the front and back porches, and outdoor seating as well. It was delightful sitting on the front porch having coffee in the morning, looking at the bay. We also really appreciated the kitchen! We ended up eating out a lot, but it has everything you need to cook and reheat meals, etc. We all really enjoyed our stay here immensely. Oh, and be sure to try and meet Lobster Dog-what a cutie pie!

We had such a wonderful stay at the Lobster Doghouse this weekend! The property was so peaceful and immaculate. Becky & Joe were wonderful hosts who had provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. They are a very warm & welcoming couple. We cant wait for our next trip to the Bar Harbor area and will definitely stay here again!
