About this campground/ rv resort rental
`Shipwreck` is a 2BR Cottage that is 1 of 3 Cottages overlooking Bass Harbor on a private way. The unit shares access to the beach and dock with its two neighboring units for swimming! It`s a small basic cabin that can feel like a tighter fit if 4 people are in the unit, but it is great for exploring the area and being right by the water!

Located on the southwestern tip of Mount Desert Island, Bass Harbor is a charming and authentic Maine fishing village known for its scenic harbor, working lobster boats, and rugged coastal beauty. Unlike the busier towns on the island, Bass Harbor offers a quiet, laid-back atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a more off-the-beaten-path experience.
One of the area’s most iconic landmarks is the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, perched on a dramatic rocky coastline and offering one of the most photographed sunset views in Maine. The village is also home to some of the island’s freshest seafood, with local lobster shacks serving up the day’s catch straight from the harbor.
Outdoor enthusiasts can explore nearby trails in Acadia National Park, including Ship Harbor and Wonderland, both offering easy coastal walks with stunning ocean views. Bass Harbor is also the departure point for ferries to Swan’s Island and Frenchboro, perfect for adventurers looking to explore Maine’s offshore communities.

We absolutely loved our two night stay at Shipwreck. The owner, Maebeth, made everything seamless. Her communication was excellent! The property is right on the water and is adorable. The view was our absolute favorite part. We could sit on the couch and look out the picture window all day. We enjoyed watching the tides and changes to the water. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed. Even the little things like coffee, tea, filters, Pam spray, baggies, foil, etc. It was well decorated and we slept great. Yes, the floor gives you a feel like you are on a ship. It just added to the experience! The location was perfect and only 28 minutes from Acadia National Park. We loved Bass Island, definitely not as crowded as Bar Harbor. You have to visit the Bass Harbor Lighthouse at sunset (take the path to the left in the parking lot down the wooden stairs). We ate at two local restaurants and loved them both. Seafood Ketch is just minutes away, and has a lovely outdoor patio that is dog friendly. The food was great (highly recommend the homemade pecan pie) and the view was also amazing for a sunset. We also ate at the Seaside Dairy Barn. Super cute, with great food (Jerk Chicken and Burgers) and ice cream. They even had music on the property. We truly loved our stay at Shipwreck and will definitely be back the next time we visit this area!
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2024
We loved the location of cabin on quiet side of island & being so close to water. Views of the harbor from cabin & boat dock were amazing.
Bedrooms are small but beds were quite comfortable. We spent majority of time in living room as couch was fine & that view was irresistible. The kitchen & bathroom need major renovation & not because of their size. Bathroom shower, flooring & rusty baseboard heater need to be replaced. Kitchen counter top was gross & I couldn’t reach any if the glasses or dishes on 2nd shelf of the kitchen cupboard. We did not cook in kitchen at all but frig worked fine. Air conditioner in living room is great but no way to move the cool air into 2 bedrooms. Floor fans would help.

Two wonderful nights. Here for a wedding and Shipwreck was as advertised!!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Oct 2024
The view is amazing! We would love to return if the beds were more comfortable and a comfortable chair for relaxing as well. Getting well rested was challenging. A hole in bathroom floor needs addressing. Other than that, beautiful area.
