About this property

Seastone - Pine Forest Cottage 4.5 miles from Acadia, 7 to downtown Bar Harbor

SeaStone Cottage is geared towards vacationers who want to get the most out of their adventures on Mount Desert Island. SeaStone Cottage is perfect for honeymooners, families, business travelers and backpackers.

On a budget? Or just looking to spend more time with the family? Dine in with our fully furnished kitchen, or cook out with our backyard gas grill. Come and relax! Enjoy coffee on the deck, read in the gardens, and soak your cares away in our giant master Jacuzzi tub.

Nestled amongst a pine wood forest in the village of Town Hill, SeaStone Cottage is centrally located for your convenience. We are just 4.5 miles from the entrance to Acadia National Park, 7 miles from Bar Harbor, and 3.5 miles from Somesville, Southwest Harbor and the quiet side of the island! We are also located less than one mile from the Atlantic Brewing Company and the Town Hill Market, known for its delicious homemade sandwiches and snacks, and where you can access the free Island Explorer shuttle.

Take the bus or drive to Cadillac Mountain, Sand Beach, Thunder Hole, or Bar Harbor.

We offer:
- a clean and comfortable stay
- local advice and expertise
- a library of brochures, guidebooks, menus and everything you need to plan your own perfect vacation getaway!

This rental is owned, managed and cleaned by a local family to ensure the best experience for our guests. Let us make your stay in Acadia one you'll never forget!

The rental unit is 1,120 sq. ft., with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an open-concept kitchen and living area. It features a private entrance and parking for 2+ cars. The private deck and side-yard offer outside dining for 6, gardens and flower plantings. Enjoy grilling or dining outdoors with the propane BBQ, and end your evenings relaxing under the stars.

Inside the home our visitors love the full kitchen and the home library filled with guidebooks, local authors, brochures, maps, menus, magazines and novels. As an Island native, I have also included a binder filled with local tips, suggestions, can't-miss opportunities and all of my family's personal favorites from restaurants, hikes, tours, and hidden-gems. On rainy days, or evenings in, play one of the many board/card games or enjoy a movie.

Below the vacation rental unit is a separate walk-out basement apartment with private entrance and additional shared parking. This apartment is used by the owner as a property management and massage office. This space is not available as a part of the vacation rental.

With SeaStone Amber hopes to share her love of adventure and travel on the very island where she grew up. Amber lives in Bar Harbor with her family and works as a massage therapist. In her free time you can find her hiking in the park, paddling on one of Acadia's majestic lakes or working in her garden.

Why they chose this property

Mount Desert Island was selected as the 25th best island in the world by Travel & Leisure. Sand Beach was featured as the Destination of the Day by The Huffington Post. Acadia National Park was rated as the 2nd best for biking in the country. And Bar Harbor's Town Square was honored as one of the most beautiful by Travel & Leisure.

This island is known as 'Eden,' and I hope that while you visit with us you are able to Live, Travel, Adventure, and experience this amazing place and come to love it as I have.

What makes this property unique

SeaStone Cottage is in the ideal location for those looking for a complete vacation experience on Mount Desert Island. Nestled in a pine wood forest in the village of Town Hill, Seastone is centrally located just 4 miles from the entrance to Acadia National Park, 7 miles from downtown Bar Harbor, and 3.5 miles from Somesville, Southwest Harbor, and the "quiet side" of the island. Spend your morning swimming in Echo Lake, or jumping off the secluded cliffs into Long Pond. Enjoy the view of Somes Sound from the top of Acadia Mountain. Hike the Beehive in the afternoon, or if you're daring take a chilly dip at Sand Beach. End your evening in Bar Harbor enjoying dinner or watching the sun set from the top of Cadillac Mountain. Don't forget to end the night with some ice cream while you enjoy live music in the Village Green, or a cocktail at any of the local watering holes. Wherever you go, you are always just minutes away from SeaStone!
