About this property

Charming, Fully-Equipped Cottage With Private Beach near Acadia National Park

This is a wooded property located on deep water oceanfront of the Union River Bay. Although the cottage is not oceanfront, visitors can easily walk a well-groomed trail to approximately 550 feet of private beach that provides access for launching kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards. Bald eagles, ospreys, loons, ducks, cormorants, great blue herons, and harbor seals commonly favor us with visits. A deep water mooring may also be available by prior arrangement. As the beach is southwest facing, sunsets are often divine.

The 1200 square foot cottage is in the woods, approximately 150 yards from the shoreline. It contains:
--Bedroom with queen-size bed and ensuite full bathroom
--Bedroom with 2 twin beds and ensuite half bathroom
--Fully equipped kitchen
--Dining/Breakfast area
--Living room with wood stove
--Den with a couch/futon that can serve as an additional bed
--Utility room with washing machine and dryer
The cottage provides Wi-fi, cable television, a gas grill, patio furniture, air conditioning, and heaters.

The loon cottage was well appointed, clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was there for our week visit. Brant and Maggie are gracious hosts. We enjoyed our visits with Brant and dogs Millie and Angel. The dog friendliness of the cottage was great for us with a perfect beach (that our toddler loved too!) and trails to walk. Location is central to many amenities, sites and restaurants. We will be back!

Perfectly Tranquil Retreat

Our family really enjoyed our weeklong stay at Loon Cove. The private beach was perfect for our kiddo explorers/swimmers. The views were amazing. The house is clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The owners were very helpful and accommodating. Perfect vacation for us, and we hope to return in the future.
