Location: Hancock, Acadia, Maine, USA (Bangor Airport, 40 Miles.... Ellsworth ME, 10 Miles)
Accommodations: Cottage, 3 Bedrooms + Loft, 3.5 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)
This cottage is a beautiful summer retreat set high above Frenchman Bay’s rocky coast with stunning panoramic views of Mount Desert Island and the Skillings River. It sits on a 4-acre lot with 200’ of impressive shore front and is sun-filled from morning until night. Perched high above the bay, every room looks out over the treetops. The cottage is very spacious with a large living/dining area and a smaller library with a fireplace. The three bedrooms sleep six in total, and there is overflow space in the loft for two more. The master suite has its own entrance, dressing room, and private bath with a clawfoot tub (also with an ocean view! ) and a separate shower with seat. The cottage offers TV, internet, and full laundry facilities. Other highlights are the large 18’ x 18’ screened porch with hanging chairs and sunset views, a large (560 s.f.) deck high above the water, a 2nd story open roof deck, and private beach access just a stone’s throw from the cottage.
This lovely cottage is conveniently located between Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park and Schoodic peninsula, also part of Acadia. Both destinations (with beauty that attracts visitors each year from around the world) are within just a 35 min. drive and are abundant with trails, lakes, mountains, and beaches as well as shops, theaters, museums, and fine dining. Whale watching, mountain biking, and kayak tours are all recommended. The cottage is also only a minute or two from Hancock Point summer community where you can dine at the renowned Crocker House Country Inn, visit the Hancock Point Chapel, play tennis on clay courts, or swim/fish/boat off the Hancock Point dock (where sailing lessons are offered for children and teens during July and August). Ellsworth is only a 15 minute drive from the cottage where you’ll find shopping centers, malls, restaurants and cafes. Bangor International Airport is a 45 min. drive from the cottage and the smaller Trenton Airport is just 20 min. away.
