About this property

Enchanting dog-friendly ocean view home with kitchen, grill, balcony, TV, & deck

Listen to wildlife sing at The Birdhouse of Maine! You'll be just a short drive away from the wonderful Arcadia National Park, where you'll be able to hike on its many breathtaking trails and enjoy the sights. Take a walk down to the shores of the beaches and relax for a while with a cold drink in hand as you bask in the sun. You'll be in luck: the Claremont Hotel is right next door, with fantastic dining options, a small bakery, and a bar.

This quaint home offers all the comforts and amenities you'll need in order to relax. Inside, you'll find beautiful paintings of birds hung up on the walls, along with comfy furnishings in the small but humble living area. Cook up a delectable meal in the fully equipped kitchen or throw some patties onto the gas grill for some classic American barbecue. After you're done dining alfresco and enjoying the view right from the comfort of your deck, head inside and pop open the board games with your family and play until the sun comes up.

Things to Know
To optimize the best views, the living room, kitchen, and bath are on the upper floor. Indoor stair access is required.

Wanted to love, but disappointed

The cabin is cute as can be, but unfortunately I wouldn't go back. The descriptions says it's next to the Claremont hotel, but what it doesn't say is the hotel's maintenance building is about 25 feet from the downstairs room. Golf carts were revving around until 11:30 one night, and going again early in the morning. Also, the downstairs room has an attached laundry room for the two sister units to use which we were unaware of and the garage backs up to this bedroom as well. It's great that kayaks and equipment are available, but the garage opening early woke us. The floor was not well cleaned and there were cobwebs in the lamps on both sides of the sofa. Also, the mirror in the downstairs bathroom is super small and high. I had to stand on my tippy toes to see my face. The photos in the description imply the water is just outside the cabin. This felt misleading. It is walkable and nearby, but you have to walk through other properties to get to it. The downstairs toilet doesn't flush fully and the refrigerator set on max cooling struggles to keep the food cold.
