About this house rental

Baycliff's home entertainment system is nature.

Watch nature unfold in all its splendor from the comfort of the dining room table or couch. The large windows and skylights let you witness the changing character of Frenchman Bay. Watch amazing sunrises and sunsets, clouds racing across the sky, the moodiness of an overcast day or the approach of a storm. It's a never-ending story of change.

The beach also changes its character to the ebb and flow of the tide. There are boulders that are exposed during low tide along with the seaweed.

The spacious balcony provides a front-row seat to watch lobster boats in the bay, along with cormorants and seagulls commuting to and from the ocean. You might also spot loons and other fascinating seabirds, with the occasional bald eagle soaring overhead. Each morning brings an awe-inspiring sunrise, showcasing a different display of nature's wonders.

The cottage at Baycliff is fully furnished and features a beautiful fully equipped kitchen with stunning views. It includes two full baths, a half bath, and is equipped with a high tier internet, WiFi, and cable channels. You’ll also have the convenience of a washer and dryer. The walk-out basement is perfect for work or play, offering gaming tables, monitors, and office chairs.

There are two upstairs bedrooms and a main-level bedroom, all furnished with queen-sized beds, plus a finished basement featuring a bunk bed. The master bedroom window overlooks Frenchman Bay, allowing you to wake up to glorious sunrises every morning.

New for the 2023 is air conditioning!

The property is shared with two cabins - one if 50 yards further up the hill the other is a further 100 yards beyond that.

Excellent location this home is nestled in the serenity of the wooded landscape on the Frenchman Bay! Close proximity to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. So much to see and do in the area. Baycliff was clean and comfortable with beautiful sunrises! My friends and I so enjoyed staying here!

My family and I had an amazing week at Baycliff. We loved sitting on the back deck and watching the lobster boats and kayakers come by every day. The house was clean and spacious and we love this location on MDI. Thank you for a great week!

Our family of 4 adults (and our French bulldog) absolutely loved our stay at Baycliff. Kevin was so thoughtful and prompt in his responses to my questions, giving suggestions on where to go (the easiest hikes ;)), etc. We had such an amazing time, as first-timers to Maine and the Bar Harbor area. Morning coffees and evening wine on the deck overlooking Frenchman's Bay capped off fun days spent in Acadia and/or Bar Harbor. As far as 'guided' tours are concerned, we loved the evening 2-hour Happy Hour Nature Cruise and the Premium Bus Tour of Acadia. The Lobster Pound had the best lobster rolls (IMO), and was so close to the house that we went twice :) The house everything that you would ever need.... THANK YOU Kevin for making such a nice property available for all of us 'strangers' to enjoy!

My wife, two daughters and I stayed for a week for our summer vacation as we’re checking off our final few States in our quest for 50. Baycliff was the perfect place to use as our home base as we explored Bar Harbor & Acadia. The house itself was extremely clean, with lots of space, and completely stocked. Communication with Kevin was extraordinary from the time we booked until we checked out. We really enjoyed relaxing on the deck overlooking Frenchman Bay and feeding the resident chipmunk and red squirrel. Overall, it was an amazing trip and I can’t recommend Baycliff enough.

We spent a week at Baycliff and I don't think we could have picked a better location for a family of five with three young adult children and a dog. It was a great place to unwind after hiking Acadia all day. The house is spacious, well appointed, and comfortable. So close to where we wanted to be but just far enough removed to have peaceful afternoons gazing at the bay. Watching seals catch fish was an added bonus. Kevin reached out immediately when we arrived to check if we needed anything but we had no issues or concerns. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!

Wow what an amazing week celebrating my daughter’s 30th birthday. Could not have asked for a better place to celebrate. From the views of Frenchman Bay from the two decks and all the amazing windows in the house we always had a great view. Host Kevin was exceptional. Great checking in to make sure everything thing was good. Could not ask for more. The house is stocked and just fantastic. Would definitely recommend. This was our first time in Bar Harbor but will be back. And our girls feeding the chipmunks was a highlight for them. Great week!!
