About this house rental

A short drive from Bar Harbor and a 5 minute walk to the sea, our cottage lets you enjoy the Maine countryside as well as the scenic shoreline. Relax on the deck, swim, antique, hike, and take in the charm of coastal Maine from our cozy home.
Our delightful, spacious, four-season cottage comfortably sleeps up to five people; there are two bedrooms, one on each floor of the house, both with queen-size beds. All bed linens are provided. There is also a separate loft area with a twin bed. Both bedrooms have closets and ample room for storage. The ground floor of our home features an open-concept dining area, living area, and kitchen, with french doors that let in lots of light. These open up to a large deck where guests can dine, grill, and relax. The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, coffeemaker, refrigerator and microwave. There are three full bathrooms, one on the first floor, one on the second floor, and one in the basement. The basement and second floor bath have showers, and the first floor features a large, convenient bathtub. Towels, hairdryer, shampoo and soap provided. Free Wifi is available.

The cottage is located on an acre of private land and is situated between a lush forest and an open meadow. We have a large and grassy front yard and back yard, as well as a deck and a patio area (with a grill) for enjoying the outdoors.

Our cottage is just a quick walk to the shore and the forest, and a short drive to many local sites and activities. We recommend having a car at your disposal.
I or my associate will meet you upon arrival to welcome you, show you the cottage, and give a short orientation to the area. At times, as I live quite a distance from Surry, I will be unable to greet guests personally. In these instances, one of my dear friends and associates (a neighbor and long-time resident of Surry) will meet you and introduce you to our cottage. We are all happy to provide information about Surry, the surrounding towns, and other area attractions. Guests will have access to us via phone and email throughout the duration of their stay so that we can answer any questions and help with whatever you need.

This is the fourth year in a row that we have rented the cottage, and we are looking forward to our visit here in 2025. We can't prove it, but we think the hummingbirds that come to the feeders recognize us.

Barbara’s cottage was perfect for our week away. The location was ideal, allowing us to easily explore Acadia, as well as Ellsworth and Deer Isle, while also being a little remote and an easy walk to a quiet “beach.” The cottage was clean and bright, with everything we needed for the week. The property manager was just a text away if had needed anything. We had daily visitors from deer and birds, which was wonderful. Would definitely stay again!

This is a beautiful home in every way. Rustic yet modern decor. Wonderful amenities, including every conceivable kitchen appliance, utensil, dishware. Lovely deck, overlooking a trimmed lawn and natural field and trees. Super comfortable beds and charming bedrooms. Close to a lovely walking trail and not from a big supermarket in charming Blue Hills. And a super responsive property manager.

We had a wonderful time staying in Julia's Cabin. It was about 45 minutes to get to the Acadia and Bar Harbor area. Cabin was clean, had plenty of towels, kitchen was well stocked, and communication with the property owner and/or property manager was great. Check in was easy as the keys are in a lockbox at the property with a code provided a couple of days prior to our arrival. Surrounding area was quite nice with a nature area that has a trail to one of the bay areas really close by. If you don't mind a bit of a drive to Acadia, I highly recommend this cabin!

We really enjoyed our stay in in this wonderful cottage. It was spotless and comfortable and in a beautiful, quiet spot, a short walk to a preserve with awesome water views from the trail. The host and caretaker each communicated regularly to make sure all was well. A great place.
