What the house lacks in amenities is made up for by the location. This rustic property sits on the shore, blessed by the most beautiful scenery and sunsets. The house has everything you need, just very basic.

The location was ideal for us on the water. We enjoyed our daily strolls along the shore. We saw seals, porpoises, eagles, loons and ospreys. It was fun watching the lobstermen tend their traps right out back. The only drawback was the very rustic nature of the building.

There were several things we did not like: 1) there was food left in the refrigerator like open milk, open ice cream, condiments, etc. 2) there were many items left in the shower, shampoos, conditioners, etc. 3) Lots of food items left in the pantry, 4) the pots and frying pans were in bad condition, I had to go buy a 12" frying pan so I could cook eggs and pancakes. 5) the upstairs got very hot when it was in the mid-80's outside, two of the larger windows in the two small bedrooms were missing screens, we opened them anyway the first night but moths and flies came in, I cannot imagine staying there during the summer. The view and location were awesome!

Great views from this private location - secluded but readily accessible to popular Acadia and Bar Harbor locations without all the crowds. Easy access to restaurants, groceries etc. Property more rustic/cabin like vs. modern house. Could use a refresh, but gave us wonderful opportunities to explore other Downeast ME sites.

Classic family cottage. Could use a little TLC, but perfectly located, with a wonderful view. Enough room for all 6 of us. Well equipped kitchen, great fire pit. Mounting a basic shower on the upstairs bathroom tub would ease pressure on the downstairs shower. We’d certainly consider coming back next year.

The cottage couldn't be in a more beautiful location, we watched seals and otters every morning from the shore while drinking coffee. The cottage is dated but that only added to the charm. We loved our stay.
