About this cottage rental

Our family cottage rents by the week, Sunday to Sunday.
Take our view of the Prospect Harbor Lighthouse with your morning coffee this summer, disturbed only by the fishing of eagles and ospreys. Walk for miles along the granite beaches of our neighboring nature preserve, pick blueberries, play on our sand beach, or explore some of the best tidal pools of Hancock County.
We have views of the mountains of Acadia National Park from the floor to peak windows on our front wall. We’re isolated down a mile long private drive, but just around the corner from the Schoodic Peninsula and an easy drive to Mt Desert Island, or take the ferry to Bar Harbor from nearby Winter Harbor.
The house sleeps five, with a queen downstairs, and a queen and two singles in the loft. We have a single bathroom with a shower. The kitchen is well equipped to prepare the local lobsters, clams or mussels any way you like, or you can grill your daily catch on the deck. The newly updated kitchen has new stove, dishwasher, microwave and refrigerator. There is now plenty of counter and storage space. Since we love to cook, there are good knives and plenty of tools. We’ve provided a gas fireplace, washer and dryer. You have to provide lemons, butter, bikes and kayaks.

We loved our stay at this charming cabin. It was exactly as described and the oceanfront was so much fun to explore. The owners were fantiastic and answered all of our questions. The kitchen is very well stocked and the knives are actually usable. The beds are all very comfortable. It’s a bit of a drive to Acadia National Park/Bar Harbor but Schoodic point is fun as well. Verizon phones work great here for when you are planing your next adventure. We will definitely remember this place when we return.

Property was as advertised, only better. Rustic with taste but not at all spartain. Great views and atmosphere. Kitchen appliances were all new and high end. A huge lobster steaming pot was provided. Plenty of notes were left to help us enjoy our stay. Internet access via our phones was superb due to a nearby tower in Gouldsboro. (ATT, T-Mobile, Verizon, likely more). Be sure to have breakfast in Winter Harbor, lunch in Corea Harbor (Lunch On The Wharf). Biking at Schoodic Peninsula was excellent. E-Bikes were ok with some restrictions. Bicycles stayed out of the weather in the outside washroom. A very, very private location! Well worth it! Rick & Peg .

Just what we were looking for...a great place to relax with lots of exploring available. The house was very clean and very comfortable. Loved the deck...we used it a lot! Not having been there before, it was a bit scary arriving in the forest after dark, but we never felt unsafe and giggled about it in the morning! We loved our stay!

Great location with proximity to ocean. Even though there was no ocean access, my boys fished almost every day. Despite not catching anything, they still had fun. Loved listening to the ocean as we drifted off to sleep. Very secluded and peaceful. Thanks for sharing your cottage with us. Great way to end the summer as our older 2 boys head back/start college. Lots of family time and memories made.

We are frequent visitors to the Winter Harbour/ Corea peninsula and love this area away from hustle of more touristic Bar Harbor. The house is a rustic yet cozy cabin right on the water with incredible view of the Prospect Harbor lighthouse , morning lobster boats. It is VERY secluded with no neighbors surrounded by woods. The cabin is basic but covers mostly everything you may need from kitchen utensils, some spices/tea/sugar/coffee to gas fireplace that adds coziness on colder days and throws/blankets for late evenings on the deck. Washer and Dryer came handy for light packing travelers, but it is in a shack adjacent to the house that you enter from outside. Loft sleeping quarters have great over the water view through railing into the living area and nice large windows to the woods. Lower bedroom has 2 small windows, not much light but when you leave them open for the night, you go to sleep with pines whispering and ocean waves crashing against the shore, best lullaby you can ask for.
