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.

This was an excellent base for going into Acadia National Park every day. The house was on the water, which made it relaxing. Was not close to town, but that made it quiet and private. House had everything we needed.

This is a peaceful place to stay while near all the chaos of Bar Harbor and Acadia NP. The house is wonderful with great views of the bay through the windows of this place. It was a pleasure waking up to the bright sunshine of a new day here. We loved everything about this home!

This is a beautiful home with beautiful views! The beds were very comfortable and is equipped with everything you would need and more. We enjoyed the deck with the gas fire pit. Cheri was very responsive in answering questions. The location was convenient and we loved Blue Hill Blaze. Perry’s was not open for the season yet.

My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is convenient to everything we wanted to do, while being removed enough for peaceful mornings and evenings. Sunrises and sunsets were gorgeous and we enjoyed the abundance of wildlife on the drive to the house each day.
