Thank you for viewing "Blueberry Ledge" on Taunton Bay in Hancock, just 25 minutes to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Our cottage is perfect for a quiet getaway and sleeps four adults comfortably or up to six people when using the loft bedroom.
Enjoy privacy and comfort in this newly constructed cottage. We have put a lot of special care into this cottage. We hope you will come and enjoy the peaceful surroundings as much as we do.
This new (2004), 2500 square foot, three-bedroom cottage sleeps six. The main floor includes a large master bedroom with queen bed and full private bath. There is a large guest room with a queen bed; another full bathroom;large foyer, full kitchen, dining area, and living room with a granite fireplace. The Cottage has cathedral, native cedar ceilings, floors are tile and hardwood(carpet in bedrooms)
The loft is complete with two twin beds and a cozy, tranquil space perfect for reading or relaxing, overlooking the living room and bay.
The walk-out basement boasts full views of the bay as well. Along with the view you will enjoy board games, cards, puzzles, books, or peaceful moments awaiting the changing of the tide every six hours, which offers a new and exciting view every day.
Each room is complete with large windows and sliding glass doors opening onto a large, private deck overlooking the bay.
The home is located on a very private lot offering 600 feet of rugged, bold, ledge frontage where the home sits on a point high above the shore 75 feet from water's edge. There is easy access to the shore or you may choose the lounge chairs high atop the point.
A heads up for parents with small children; although the ledge frontage is beautiful, in places it is very steep and drops dramatically into the bay.
Start your days picking wild blueberries, August and September only, for your very own muffins, cereal or pancakes. Just a quick jaunt off from the deck will land you in the blueberry bushes atop the ledge.
Spend your days exploring Maine's coastal towns or visit Mount Desert Island with its many villages and Acadia National Park. Opportunities are endless, including whale watch trips, boat rentals, fishing, swimming, kayaking, shopping, tennis or make use of the many hiking trails.
Ellsworth is only seven minutes away, where you will find a variety of shops and stores. However, Country Stores are nearby for all your basic needs. Our cottage is the perfect center point to begin your exploring regardless of your destination. (We are approximately 30 minutes away from Bangor, Blue Hill, Bucksport, Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, Milbridge or Cherryfield.)
If you need a break from the daily site seeing, cook your own lobster on the deck with our outside steamer, or enjoy steaks and burgers on the grill. These options let you enjoy your vacation to the fullest.
This delightful coastal community offers many dining opportunities as well. We keep menus on hand to show the local "hot spots".
Please see our guestbook for the thoughtful remarks we have received from previous tenants.
