A full bathroom with a shower is located on this floor. Towels, toilet tissue, shower gel, shampoo, and hair conditioner are also provided.
The formal dining room where you can enjoy main meals has two French doors leading to the sunroom that overlooks the property and the bay. It has a table and four chairs for breakfast, snacks, or games.
An additional office space with a sofa bed, desk and 42” wall mounted television is located off the dining room.
The large living room features a sofa, three chairs, two foot stools and a 50” television. WiFi is available throughout the house. A French door leads to the outdoor deck.

There is a washer and dryer located in this large bathroom. The master bedroom has a private 8’ X 16’ deck with a table and chairs for morning coffee, or just relaxing. A loft area overlooks the living room.
THE DECK
On the deck you will find six Adirondack chairs to relax with morning coffee or evening drinks. It’s also a great place to read, or enjoy the fabulous sunsets and the star filled evening sky. A gas grill is also provided.
THE SHORE
Enjoy the view of Taunton Bay morning, noon, or night. In the morning you may see lobstermen placing or checking their traps. There’s also a chance you’ll see our harbor seals, eagles, and other wildlife. A picnic table is available for you. At dusk can witness some of the most spectacular sunsets as you convene around the fire pit.
SURROUNDING AREA
This home is locate central to many places and points of interest. Down the road you can visit the Granite Gallery and see the vast collection of sculptures and other creations fabricated from granite. It’s on the site of one of many granite quarries in the area.
If you head north on Hwy. 1 you can visit Schoodic Point (also a part of Acadia National Park, with less visitors). You’ll be able to walk out on the granite cliffs and taste the salt spray as the surf hits the cliffs. It’s also a wonderful spot picnic or hike.
Heading about 20 minutes south on Hwy. 1 you can visit the town of Ellsworth where you can dine and shop with the locals. There’s grocery stores to restaurants, shops and everything in between. The LL Bean outlet is there, too.
You’re about 30 minutes from Mt. Desert Island where Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, and Northeast and Southwest Harbors are located. Take the scenic ride down Sargent Drive for another breathtaking experience.
There are so many places to visit. When you arrive at our home you will find much more information on places to visit, menus from our favorite restaurants, and information on whale watching, island tours, and other points of interest native in our beautiful state.
We are 55 minutes from Bangor International Airport and about 3 hours from Portland’s Airport. I hope you’ll consider visiting Maine and being our guests. I will guarantee a memorable and enjoyable experience.

We loved staying here. What a great way to start the morning —coffee on the deck while looking at the water. What a great house and the hosts are so kind and welcoming. Great recommendations in their welcome booklet. We really had a nice relaxing time in Maine. Thank you

The property is beautiful and clean. The host is very communicative and helpful. The house has a very pleasant and comfortable decor. It was fully stocked and we felt like a lot of thought went into making sure that guests have everything they need to have the perfect vacation.We greatly appreciated the 2 porches with the beautiful view of the water as well as the fire pit down near the bay.We had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely repeat.

Our stay at the Silver Raven was everything we hoped for and more. When we first discovered it on VRBO there was only one review, a 10/10. I was a little skeptical at first but as time went on waiting for our turn, more and more reviews came in all the same.My family and I are so grateful to John & Mary for allowing us to share in their blessing. My wife and i have been visiting this area for decades and I can truly say this home is the most well equipped, cleanest, comfortable, relaxing place we have stayed in. We definitely hope to return for a longer stay. Again, Thank you John & Mary for your hospitality. The little "Goody Bag" was a nice touch."Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."Hebrews 13:2 NT

This property is as described. It is very clean, comfortable and nicely laid out. John the host was very responsive to any questions or needs. The location worked well for our family. It is close to Ellsworth grocery stores and not too far from Acadia activities. There is no AC in the house so it can get warm later in the day(we picked some of the hottest days this summer). This wasn’t a problem for us because we were out in the evenings and the cool Maine nights helped get the house temp down with the provided fans. We would definitely stay here again.
