About this cottage rental
Dramatic Oceanfront Cottage with Stunning Views of Acadia National Park!
2 Bedroom, 2 Full Baths sleeps 4 - maximum 6 (new queen sofa bed or hi-rise inflatable air mattress for overflow guests)
Shift into idle in this lovely cottage by the sea. Sleep to the rhythmic sounds of gentle waves lapping on your shore. Prolific wildlife abounds; eagles, loon, osprey and an occasional seal. Sunrises here are some of the most magnificent on planet earth! Her reflection off the sea might even dance across your ceilings if you are an early enough riser and have a desire to connect with the beauty that surrounds you here.
The ocean and all her treasures are right at your footstep with a stunning porch that hangs over the sea and access to some of the finest lobster Maine has to offer just a few doors down at a quint New England, locally-owned, lobster shack. Exceptional panoramic, 180-degree views of Acadia National Park. Conveniently located only 15 minutes from two quintessential New England villages; Blue Hill and Ellsworth for restaurants and shopping. Endless outdoor adventures are to be found in this part of Downeast Maine. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are a 50 minute drive. Nearby hiking, boating, horse-back riding, bike riding, mountain climbing, painting, whale watching, fishing, sailing, kayak rentals and more are all available.
FYI if you are coming with small children; this property is literally right on the ocean. Porch overhangs the water and stairs down to the sea, neither are child proofed. Please take care. That said, the owner's children enjoyed the home since they were wee. Epic Atlantic, typically calm waters for little ones. Also note no play yard.
This is a non-smoking, no pet vacation rental property.

It was very convenient and comfortable. Our only concern was the size of the double bed in the main bedroom and suggest replacing it with a queen sized bed and moving out the dresser in that room. Overall, we had an excellent stay.

From any room the views were outstanding overlooking the ocean. Watched the best sunrise without leaving the bed.

We had two couples. Each of us had had ample space. House was spacious. We were truly right on the ocean. Loved the full ocean side windows. We could hear the waves at high tide.

Less than an hour from Acadia and Bar Harbor. Our first trip to Maine and this was the most quiet & peaceful rental that I have ever stayed in. The house was wonderful.. clean and had everything that we needed. We walked down to Perry's Lobster shack the evening we checked in and the food was wonderful. Check in was smooth. The most beautiful sunrise over the water that I have ever seen. We would love to go back in the summer. Highly recommend!
