One of the quietest places I ever visited. We had a very relaxing one week stay. Loved launching the kayaks right from the beach. Our doodle was very happy here. The private beachfront is amazing.

We have stayed here many times. Each time is better than the last. David and Carolyn are exceptional hosts. You couldn't ask for a better place to stay. We are from Maine and we look forward to staying here every time and are crest fallen whenever we have to leave. Homestead Cabin helps us to recharge our batteries. The visits to the beach, the trails, the views and so more are to be savored.

Cabin was beautiful and just the right size. We had everything we needed. Carolyn and David were super responsive to any questions. The inlet beach is so picturesque and peaceful and we saw seal pups each day which was a highlight for us. Acadia and Bar Harbor are 1 hr and 20 minutes away as an FYI but this is a great place to stay away from the crowds

Extremely wonderful place to relax. Amenities are very nice. If you want a secluded, peaceful, quiet place all to yourself with a short walk to rocky sea shore, then this is the place. The sunset was awesome from the shore. Be prepared for a mile long driveway deep into woods of Maine. We looked forward to returning to cabin after day of exploring Acadia.

The Homestead Cabin was a magical place in the woods. It is just as described down a long driveway and a short walk to the water. We were greeted by the sweetest dog who showed us the path to the beach. I am so glad we picked this cabin for our first trip to Maine. You won’t be disappointed.

This is our third stay. We love this spot. The property is clean, comfortable and thoughtfully equipped in LL Bean style with touches such as muffin tins and pie plates to bake blueberry pies!
There is a beautiful private beach with steep stairs for access. You might be tempted to never leave the cabin.
Our hosts were helpful and attentive to our needs but respected our privacy.

We have stayed here for several years and i plan to stay here for many years to come. David and Carolyn have created that oasis that each of us needs for vacation. They have provided for our every need. Even during the days it rained, it still felt as if we had our own woodland paradise. We are always greeted by the owners. There is so much to do on and off the island. The island community provides a wonderful Independence day celebration. The parades, community events and the glorious fireworks over the harbor are always our favorite. You will never run out of great places to eat and if you choose to stay in you will have everything you need to enjoy the Maine experience.

This is perfect for nature lovers looking for peace and quiet and a complete opposite to the over run mad house know as Maine tourism. If you love the quiet outdoors and fun freedom for your well behaved dog , this is the spot! The owners Golden Retriever, Daisy , is an absolute joy and kept our pups entertained. Owners are wonderful, hard working, very friendly and welcoming. You just can’t go wrong staying here !

We had the most amazing time at the cottage which is absolutely perfect in every way. Our hosts are incredible people and have the sweetest puppy named Daisy. Check in and out was very easy, and the cottage truly has everything you need. It was immaculate upon arrival. Absolutely recommend this rental.

I am a returning guest to this gorgeous property, having booked my second stay immediately after my first. The tranquility, pristine landscape, private beach, and access to Acadia and Bar Harbor are just a few of my favorites about the Homestead Cabin. I totally plan on returning year after year.....David and Carol are gracious hosts and I couldn't have asked for more......

Perfect cabin in the woods
This is an ideal property for us, two senior women. The cabin is very quiet sitting on the edge of the woods at the end of a long access road. One of us is an avid sea kayaker and is able to launch from the a nearby beach on the edge if the property. This was our third vacation here and we are already booked for next year. The hosts who own the property live just down the hill and are wonderful and gracious in their hospitality.

Wonderful cabin in a glorious setting
What a great place! Lovely little cabin slept 3 adults, 1 child and a German Shepard perfectly. The cottage is set off on a long dirt path far from the main road and makes you feel like you are truly getting away from it all. There are little trails that lead to rocky and wooded areas that overlook the beautiful salt water bays of Maine. A small rocky beach is just perfect for watching the sun rise or to cast a few lines. The cabin is immaculately cleaned and they have absolutely everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Lastly, the owners are both extremely nice people, non-invasive, people who seem to just love where they live and want other people to enjoy it as much as they do. They were extremely accommodating when I asked to move my trip by a day and for letting us bring our dog. I wouldn’t think of staying any where else when I come up again to visit my aunt who lives on Deer Isle. Thank you for your hospitality.

Absolute Heaven On Earth
I could never have imagined how perfect this Sea Cabin was until I saw it with my own eyes. From the rustic drive in the woods to the cabin from the main road to the luscious landscape, ferns, running brook - the whole setting was a feast for the senses. The cabin was so comfortable, cozy, and clean. And the private piece of the Maine coastline was everything to me. It was a short walk to the beach and the quiet/calm while watching the tides come and go was something I will never forget. I will be back and would recommend this property 150%. The owners were super friendly and accessible. I offered to buy the property- that's how happy I was with my stay.

Fantastic Cottage & Great Hosts
We were thrilled with the cottage! Every part of the listing was just as we found it...and...even greater! Our two dogs had a relaxing time away as well. The short walk to the cove was a favorite activity as was our time spent enjoying the quiet and solitude of the Maine woods and coastline. And, if you stay at the cottage...you simply must be sure to go out on the wrap-around deck at night and enjoy the night sky.

Wonderful Time in Stonington Cottage
We had a lovely and peaceful time at the cottage. Our hosts went above and beyond in every way and the cottage itself was beautifully appointed and had all the amenities we could have asked for. The location, with easy walks and a path to the beach completed the Maine experience. We would love to return in future years.

Peaceful summer retreat
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at The Homestead Cabin. The cabin was immaculate and equipped with everything we could need for cooking meals, grilling, etc. We slept well thanks to comfortable beds and cool nighttime breezes. We loved the shared beach, trails through the mossy woods and the quiet location. David and Carolyn are exceptionally helpful, kind and welcoming hosts. We hope to return again one day!

Wonderful vacation
Dave and Carolyn are the best host that you can expect. They are quick at answering my questions before the trip, and extremely helpful while we are there. We borrowed their row boat and had a great time on the ocean.Their cabin is like a heaven at Stonington, very clean and the beds are comfortable. Our dog had a great time as well. Hope we can return soon!

Cozy Coastal Cabin
David and Carolyn continue to be gracious welcoming hosts. The cabin was perfect. We had a few days of iffy weather but we filled those days with trips to the antique stores. Wonderful hikes and cruises filled the sun filled days. As always, I HIGHLY recommend a stay at either the cabin or cottage. It is the perfect get away.

The perfect -lace for us
For the two of us and our dog, this rental is a perfect fit. We like being out in the woods and with easy access to the water. Our interests are sea kayaking and being in a place of peace and quiet. Our hosts, David and Carolyn were incredibly gracious and helpful when we needed it.

Incredible cabin
David and Carolyn are wonderful hosts. I have vacationed in Stonington for years. This is the best stocked rental, if you forgot anything they have thought of it. The place is a wonderful retreat from the world. There is a beautiful beach to enjoy the sights and the sounds of the ocean. Anything you want to do is a short drive away. David and Carolyn provide a selection of possible mini adventures and places to eat. The cabin is an oasis in the woods with a great deck with a view of the ocean, woods right beside the cabin and wild life that occasionally came out to be seen. We saw a fox named Mr. Pickles and 2 deer. I will be coming back for another stay. David and Carolyn have thought of every possible thing someone might need for a great escape from the world.
