Private Ocean side rustic cottage with beach Bar Harbor

Location is everything with this rustic home. The views of nature and the large seal colony from the deck are unsurpassed. At high tide you feel like you’re on a boat. The beach is excellent. The home itself has two “bedrooms” that are connected by a sliding curtain type door. You need to walk through the first room with two twin beds to get to the main bedroom. All bedroom doors are curtains. There is a large futon in the living room area that can be used as a bed. The bathroom is sufficient. The shower is quite small in case there are taller folks in your party. Jennifer the cleaner does an excellent job of keeping the place very clean. Unfortunately communication was a bit off in regards to the check in process. Fortunately the back door was left open so we could get into the house. I’m sure this must have been an oversight but could have been a real problem. The key location was disclosed the morning after the day of check in. The kayak that was provided was a huge hit with the family. There are 3 other homes located near the house and are set away from each other with trees and property in between. Most neighboring homes were empty when we visited making for extra privacy. It takes about 25 minutes to get to Bar Harbor from the home. Absolutely great trip to a historical home on the Maine coast!

Stay was great on Indian Point near Bar Harbor, ME. Really enjoyed the location and the peace and quiet away from town. The cabin was comfortable but the bedroom and bathroom were a bit small and hot with no A/C - we were there during an unusually hot week in August. Otherwise would have rated 5 vs 4. The wildlife (seals and eagles) and proximity to nature was awesome.

Any description doesn’t do this place justice. Magical! Like no place I’ve ever been. I will be back!

Absolutely such a special place! It’s hard to put into words how beautiful the views were. The history of the cabin was amazing. Our son and a blast beach combing and listening to the seals. I didn’t ever want to leave the cabin to go into town.
