About this cottage rental
We discount for monthly stays from November to April. Please ask us about this discount before booking during this period of the year. I can send a special offer to you through VRBO.
Built in 2001, the cottage is designed for enjoying time inside and out during our spectacular summers. It rests in a quiet location 75 feet from high tide. Has 4 BDRMS and 3 bathrooms. No roads or ledges to traverse when walking down to our private beach. We are 25-35 minutes from Bar Harbor and 20 from Acadia National Park, and only 7 minutes from Bar harbor Airport and 35 from Bangor International Airport. WE HAVE HIGH SPEED INTERNET FROM Spectrum AND CABLE TV WITH A DVR. WE HAVE TWO FLAT SCREEN TVS. ONE IS IN THE LIVING ROOM THE OTHER IS IN THE DEN/BDRM.
OUTSIDE
The cottage faces the sunset and Blue Hill Mountain across the inter-coastal ocean area of Union River Bay and Blue Hill Bay. Wooden stairs step down to a typical Maine tidal zone, except for the brook on the south side of the property.
At low tide rocks draped in thick tangle of yellow-green and brown-purple seaweeds surround our pebble beach. These are called Rockweed and are an important part of our coastal ecosystem. The shore provides lots of chances for beach combing and exploring. A brook empties into the Bay on the south side of the property and encourages birds and other wildlife to visit.
A large deck and a balcony off the second-story bedroom are great places to picnic or for sitting still and enjoying songbirds, ducks, loons, gulls, eagles, on occasion some wild turkeys, squirrels, even seals, and osprey, depending on the time of year.

3 generationally together quite comfortably. The house is lovely and spotless. Well equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds. Two nice seating areas. Excellent access to the water for our kayaks. At low tide there’s a great pebbly beach. Convenient to Ellsworth shopping and Acadia for all its activities . Host was very helpful on a few occasions when we had question.

We had a great week at this home. A nice home base for trips into Acadia and Bar Harbor, but also nice to sit by the water and listen to the birds and watch the wildlife. The home was perfect for our needs, very clean, spacious, and comfortable! Thank you!

We loved our stay. I liked the layout of the house better than any Vrbo I've stayed in. Two of the bedrooms have wonderful views and small private bathrooms. The house was great for two couples (what we had) but could easily have been very comfortable for three couples, since the bedrooms are spaced out and all with bathrooms. The house faces west so the view of the sunsets are spectacular! We cooked local seafood every night and found the kitchen equipped enough to do so. There are small stretches of woods between the neighboring houses so the house and beach area feels very private. We loved the creek in the woods emptying into the ocean. And the tides are extreme enough that it was easy to have an evening fire below the tide line. Only blips were minor. Our disappointment that the wood stove in the house was off limits (ie insurance) And there was a neighbor with an unhealthy relationship with his leaf blower on several evenings.

This home has everything needed for a long stay.
Lots of towels, kitchen well equipped and lots of books and games.
The view was amazing.
However mosquitoes were horrible making it difficult to sit outside at night and enjoy the sunset.
Tiki torches or fire pit would be recommended to decrease mosquitoes.
The house is VERY dated and needs some TLC. ( toilet seat taped together, furniture very used, one bath was very stained from use and the other had mold around bottom of door)
Kitchen microwave and cabinets need a good wipe down as well does the area along lower cabinet over hang (lots of food crumbs, dust and dirt)
We also had an issue with spiders during our stay.
Several in sinks and showers.
The home does not have central air conditioning. It would have been nice to open windows for the breeze . However the screens do not fit correctly. They are for older windows.
The town and area are nice. The drive to downtown Bar Harbor was at least 30 min and 25 to most parts of Acadia area. We did not mind the drive because we wanted to be on the water and have some privacy.
