About this cabin rental

Lovely cabin on beautiful shorefront property on Western side of MDI. This 5 acre property has gently sloping fields to a wonderful cobblestone beach with private deep water granite pier and dock. This rustic cabin consists of one great room with vaulted ceilings and a loft to accommodate additional sleeping. The cabin includes a bunk bed with the upper bunk single and lower bunk double and a sleeper couch and a loft with queen size mattress.

The beach is perfect for private lobster bakes, shelling and searching for sea glass or simply enjoying the incredible sunsets. The 150' pier with 24' floating dock will accommodate your boating activities along with a mooring suitable for a 50' vessel. The area is ideally suited for kayaking and sailing in the protected reaches of Blue Hill Bay.

The Southwestern exposure provides incredible views towards Swans Island and the outer reaches of Blue Hill Bay.

The villages of Bass Harbor and Bernard are approximately 1 mile away. There's great hiking along the shore or in the nearby National Park. An easy walk to the nearby bus stop provides free bus service throughout the island. The location is truly amazing and must be seen to be appreciated.

What a great place to relax. The property abuts the shore--maybe a 60-second stroll down a grassy, gentle slope where adirondacks and the dock await. Or just hang out on the patio to watch from there. Warm during the day, cooling off at night, lobster by the beach -- just the perfect summer getaway. Thanks for the great stay and easy communication, Ben.

Our second year staying here. A wonderful cabin with all the amenities. Having a washer/dryer in the cabin is wonderful - don't have to pack as many clothes. Cabin is beautifully situated on the quiet side of the island. After a visit to bar harbor or after a day of hiking, it's always nice to escape back to the cabin for a peaceful evening overlooking the water. We are already making plans for our stay next year. Can't wait!

The property is well furnished. You'll find everything you need and you have grocery options within 15 min drive. Our highlight was really the rocky beach where you can have a firepit and the dock. Perfect for kayak or paddle board along the coast!

The cabin was lovely. Everything was clean and described accurately. The beach is amazing and right down a grassy path. Mosquitos are rough but a thermocell worked to keep them away from us while hanging on the porch.

This cottage provided the perfect combination of an ideal place to hang out, while also having easy access to all the things to explore on this side of Mt. Desert Island. Neither of us had been to the area before, so as we explored and became more familiar with island culture, we realized how fortunate we were to have landed on the quiet side…resulting in the very best kind of “happy accident”! The host provided a helpful guide to all the local places to check out, and it was easy to branch out from there. The cottage had everything we needed…including direct access to the pier and water…a lovely spot to watch the sunset each evening. We highly recommend, and are already looking forward to visiting again in the future.

We stayed here for our trip to Acadia National Park. Great location for exploring Acadia and the surrounding area! The cabin was quaint and had everything we needed. The view from the cabin and deck were amazing and the sunsets from the beach and pier were beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful week!!

We had an amazing time staying at this property. Great grassy lawn and amazing view of the ocean and sunset. Very close to a few hikes in Acadia national park. Main part of the park is about 40 min away. No central air or central heating as listed but there are space heaters that work very nicely. Restaurants are a little far away but the host will give you recommendations that are close and delicious! I would recommend staying here to a friend.

Perfect place to stay for my husband and me. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by deer in the yard, and later, as we walked down to the beach, there was a fox. The cabin had all the amenities we needed. Just a few miles from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, yet far enough to enjoy the quietness and listen to the wind and the ocean. Also, we were able to see the moon and stars. The beach is the perfect place to sit and watch the sunset, look for sea glass and many pretty rocks. Ben is a great host. I couldn't find my directions and instructions; he was quick to email them to me again. "Thank You!" Will definitely stay here again when we make it up that way again!!
