About this house rental

This property is located in East Franklin, on five acres of fields along the bank of tidal Hog Bay Creek. The area is rural, and the view from the deck down over the fields to the marsh is beautiful.

In the spring, alewives run up the creek and osprey, eagles, and herons are a common sight. The fields are home to numerous birds including bluebirds, woodpeckers, yellow bellied northern flickers, yellow finches, etc.

The house sleeps eight comfortably, with a fold-out couch on the first floor for overflow, and a fold out cot and a pack and play available. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a full bath. The first floor has a library with a queen bed, kitchen, dining/living room, and a full bath. There is a grill on the back deck.

This part of Maine has many opportunities for hiking, boating, and biking in Acadia National Park (45 minute drive), on the Rails-to-Trails multi-use path that runs from Ellsworth to the Canadian border, and in the over 14,000-acre Donnell Pond Public Lands area that borders East Franklin. The Schoodic Peninsula (30 minute drive) offers stunning vistas as well and is a must-visit.

Bar Harbor is full of shops and restaurants, while Ellsworth (20 minute drive) is the nearby shopping hub. Basic groceries and necessities are available at the Franklin Trading Post 2 miles from the property.

The coast east from here is quiet and far less congested than mid-coast Maine. Have a secluded home base from which to launch your Maine explorations, and/or to have some quiet time away from the hustle.

This house is set in a charming setting. Wild turkeys, creeks and birds surround you. Every place you look there is something to see. The house is beautiful. The host has thought of every detail down to labeling the remote controls. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you could possibly need for vacation. The property manager is wonderful. We arrived in a tropical storm and she had everything ready that we needed. It is exceptionally clean, the cleaning crew does a great job! This ‘family’ home is so inviting! We felt right at home all week. Couldn’t ask for more

This house is full of art, pottery, weavings, and a beautiful quilt. There were seven of us, and it was very comfortable and roomy. Lovely property and access to a lot of inland hikes and lakes for kayaking. The kitchen is well stocked for an array of meals. We loved it!
