=============== ¡Hola! Aquí en Fish Point somos únicos en dar la bienvenida no solo a los vacacionistas de verano y otoño, sino también a los viajeros de negocios o médicos que necesitan una estadía más larga durante todo el año, y a las personas que desean alquileres de retiros de artistas: escritores, artistas visuales y compositores / compositores de canciones * *
Si bien sabemos que algunos viajeros buscan una casa independiente, esto no es "solo un apartamento". Como comentó un invitado feliz cuando entró por primera vez: "¡Tienes un palazzo [un palacio] aquí!" Somos muy respetuosos con las necesidades de paz y privacidad de nuestros huéspedes. Mientras tanto, estamos disponibles para necesidades especiales, ayuda en emergencias, los últimos consejos y sugerencias sobre el área.
Nuestra casa fue construida en 2002, en una propiedad de 3-1 / 2 acres con una fascinante historia de la Guerra Revolucionaria. La casa está justo en la tranquila carretera de Fickett's Point, en la parte trasera de la bahía de Narraguagus, a pocos minutos del centro de Milbridge. Es un gran camino para caminatas escénicas y ciclismo. Cruce el amplio campo detrás de nuestra casa y llegará a una pasarela que conduce a nuestra propia península boscosa, utilizada solo por nuestra familia e invitados, que le ofrece vistas de 270 grados del océano, la bahía, la ciudad y espectaculares puestas de sol sobre el agua. . ¡Disfruta de las vistas desde el sendero, los bancos o toma una comida en la mesa de picnic! Las puestas de sol son espectaculares por ahí.
Un conjunto de escaleras lo lleva a la playa, una de las raras playas de arena en la costa de Maine, junto con las grandes rocas características de la zona. Estamos cerca del puerto deportivo de la ciudad, y los alquileres de kayak están cerca.
Vivimos en la casa contigua, que hemos hecho sonora y visualmente privada desde el apartamento 1300 SF. El apartamento de alquiler está en la planta baja, con sus propias entradas privadas, jardín y un patio / terraza frente al agua. La instalación es accesible para discapacitados, con puertas y pasillos anchos, y pisos de baldosas, madera y alfombras de baja siesta, superficies lisas para caminantes o sillas de ruedas. Tenemos un carrito de golf en el que podemos transportar a los huéspedes menos capacitados para caminar hasta el Punto a pedido.
Las habitaciones son grandes para esta parte de Maine. Dos tienen camas queen y una cama doble con controles eléctricos de confort. One Queen BR tiene su propio baño privado con ducha. Las otras dos habitaciones comparten un baño con una gran ducha de azulejos. La cocina completamente equipada cuenta con excelentes electrodomésticos, que incluyen lavaplatos y horno / estufa de gas LP de alta calidad. Y, por supuesto, una olla de langosta! El comedor está fuera de la gran sala de estar, y el apartamento tiene su propia lavadora y secadora. La decoración y el mobiliario son encantadores, relajantes y únicos, no exagerados.
Otras comodidades: Nuevo televisor de pantalla plana con Direct TV, Netflix, programas de música en Internet y otros servicios incluidos. DSL de alta velocidad. La mayoría de los servicios celulares funcionan bien en nuestra ubicación. Acceso a teléfono fijo bajo petición. Pequeña biblioteca, juegos para días lluviosos, etc.
Desde que adquirimos esta casa en abril de 2014, hemos estado restaurando gradualmente las hermosas camas de jardín que rodean toda la casa. Combinan plantas nativas y silvestres con plantaciones más formales. El apartamento tiene su propia área de "jardín secreto" y patio privado con vista a los campos y la bahía.
Aunque 2014 fue nuestro primer año en Fish Point, hemos tenido una casa de vacaciones en Milbridge desde 2008, y hemos alquilado a viajeros desde 2009. ¡Hemos recibido elogios de nuestros inquilinos en ambas propiedades! (Ver nota sobre el otro en "Historia del propietario")
UBICACIÓN, UBICACIÓN: Los huéspedes a menudo nos dicen lo felices que están con nuestra ubicación geográfica, ya que estamos a la misma distancia del monte. Desert Island (Parque Nacional Acadia, Bar Harbor) y las ciudades costeras más lejanas del este como Lubeck y Eastport, ¡y la isla de Campobello! Traiga pasaportes si planea visitar Campobello, ya que es canadiense. Es fácil hacer un viaje de un día o medio día a estos lugares de vacaciones famosos y fascinantes desde nuestro lugar.
2016 fue el año 100 ANIVERSARIO del PARQUE NACIONAL ACADIA. La parte principal del parque está en Mount Desert Island, a unos 50 minutos de nosotros. Pero una sección menos conocida, Schoodic Point, está a solo 20 minutos de distancia, y es más tranquila, menos multitudes, las mismas vistas impresionantes. Schoodic Point, esta parte de Acadia que los Mainers tienden a frecuentar, también tiene un excelente centro de información y conferencias y un campamento, y está cerca de muchos estudios de arte y artesanía..
* Las tarifas de alquiler de vacaciones y retiro de nuestros huéspedes ayudan a apoyar el trabajo del Instituto de Artes del Condado de Sunrise, la pequeña organización sin fines de lucro de Maine que fundamos en 2014 como un recurso para actividades de música, teatro, escritura y artes visuales de calidad en Milbridge y DownEast / Área de acadia.

Very Nice Stay In Milbridge
The house was immaculately clean. Danielle and Claude were very gracious hosts. The views were beautiful, and this was a very enjoyable place to stay. Close to the Schoodic Peninsula, and not too far from Machias and Campobello for folks who would like to visit the FDR compound there. I would heartily recommend that you stay here!

A great apartment to rent.
Fish Point apartment is clean, spacious and A/C is not needed. Just open the windows and feel the cool breeze and smell the salty air from the bay. The point is a nice place to meditate and just appreciate the beautiful scenery. Danielle and Claude are great hosts...very nice couple and they are there if you need anything. Their puppy named Pongo is just adorable. Our first family vacation in Maine was memorable and highly recommend the apartment.

Wonderful rental, warm and thoughtful hosts
My husband and I were seeking a relaxing mini-vacation somewhere near the ocean. Danielle and Claude's pristine, spacious, well-appointed rental was just the ticket! We couldn't believe how roomy and beautiful the apartment was--- really more like a whole house to itself, yet so reasonably priced. Off the beaten track, quiet location near the water, with a springtime chorus of wood frogs serenading us at night, but only minutes from town for groceries and restaurants. Excellent base location for Acadia (especially Schoodic) and other downeast attractions all the way up to Canada and Campobello Island. Danielle and Claude were so thoughtful and hospitable, and gave excellent recommendations for local points of interest. Thank you for a wonderful long weekend---we'll be back!

Brithday celebration
My Cousin, her Mom and I were looking for an accessible house to celebrate her 79 birthday. We were so glad we found the Fish Point house owned by Danielle & Claude. The beautiful private cove accessed via a walk through the birch trees was great. We wanted something in between New Brunswick Canada & Bar Harbor and the house was perfect for our trip being about an hours drive to both. The restaurant recommendations by Danielle & Claude were great local places for Seafood, if you go to Pickled Wrinkle have the fish chowder, and you can get a small seafood dinner at Uncle Skinny's that is enough food for 2 had the best fried oysters I've ever had. We slept very well in the comfy beds and the one that raised was perfect for my Aunt! The towels were the big fluffy ones, not what you usually find in a rental. Danielle & Claude was so sweet to us and treated us like family ensuring we all had everything we needed during our stay. If I were looking for a place in Maine that would soothe my soul this house would be it!! Thank you so much Danielle & Claude for all the kindness you showed to us during our stay & sharing Pongo! You will not be forgotten!

Wonderful anniversary trip!
Heartfelt thanks to Danielle and Claude for their hospitality! We had a wonderful stay at Fish Point and if I lived there, I'd spend nearly all my time down at the point -- absolutely gorgeous!!! Even though the water was frigid, off came my tennis shoes so I could put my feet into the water down on the beautiful little beach. Be sure to try to catch a glimpse of the little "church" with the stained glass window hidden in the woods down at the point. During our visit, we were blessed to be invited to attend a concert performed by Danielle and had a lovely song dedicated for our anniversary stay -- priceless. The list of have-to-see points of interest and restaurants provided by Danielle were invaluable -- we visited The Wrinkled Pickle twice. Her communication before and during our stay was great -- I felt like we were friends even before we met in person. Schoodic Point in Acadia (the locals' choice for visiting the park) will go down in history as one of my most favorite places to visit. I got so close down on the rocks that the water hit me from my feet to my knees!!! If you visit, you'll understand how awesome that is! :) And the stars up in the sky -- amazing. How many times I wish I could have captured that beauty with my camera. Such a wonderful stay. My husband and I have already talked about hoping to visit again some day and treat our kids to the hospitality and beauty found at Fish Point. Thanks again, Danielle and Claude, for the sweet gift of the wine upon our arrival and for sharing your home with us for one of our best anniversary trips yet.

So many of the things you describe about not only Fish Point, but the area we live in, are exactly why we feel so blessed to be here too. (And yes, when I walk outside on a clear night, I feel as if I've stepped under a bowl of stars.) It was a privilege to share it all with you, and we'd absolutely love to have you come back with the rest of your family some day. Have a great year! Warm regards from us both.

Quiet Oasis
This beautifully maintained attached apartment rental was ideal for our first VRBO experience. I fear they may have set the bar too high for future vacations!
Situated on a very peaceful, quiet point, it was the perfect get-away for 3 busy professionals. It can be hard to unplug when you have a demanding career, but this location made it easier because of the wonderful amenities, which included excellent WiFi connectivity. We didn’t have to worry about how the office would reach us in the case of an emergency.
It was an easy drive to MDI (Mount Desert Island-home of Bar Harbor Village and Acadia National Park) and the beautiful rugged coast of Downeast Maine! We had many lovely drives through the picturesque landscape and have some wonderful pictures to remember our stay for years to come. It was also quite easy to get to Lubec, Maine and the beautiful lighthouse at West Quoddy Head (the easternmost point in the USA), and the entry point for Campobello Island, NB Canada.
Claude, Danielle (and Pongo, too!) made us feel at home immediately. Generous information was provided about the many attractions in the area, both very near and a short distance by car. Sunset on the point is beautiful, and should not be missed! The local grocery store is quite close and extremely well stocked for such a small town. We were able to find everything we wanted to keep costs down by cooking in the apartment most mornings and a few evenings. The kitchen in the apartment is well stocked, and we never had to “make do”, since everything we needed (in the way of utensils, dishware, pots/pans, etc.) was provided.
We chose the perfect week to see the gorgeous fall colors of Maine, and are so appreciative of the kindness of our hosts. Thank you for allowing us to rent your fabulous apartment. We truly had a memorable stay!

Thank you for being such wonderful guests! and now for this recommendation that not only makes us very happy to read, but will be informative for future vacationers.
We really appreciated the 3 of you during your tenancy, including the fine communication we had back and forth; and after you checked out, Claude and I were just blown away by the thoughtfulness of how clean, well-ordered and also well-restocked you left the apartment. If we could give you 10 stars, we would!
And we very much hope you'll come back to us in a future year. Have a wonderful rest of the fall and holiday season.

A great stay in Milbridge
We had a great stay in Milbridge. The property was well furnished, very comfortable, private and quiet. We felt like we came home each evening to our little retreat. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were well appointed, and the kitchen (plus the outdoor gas grill) had everything you would need to prepare meals. The living room was a comfortable place to hang out. Thanks Danielle and Claude for a great stay.

Beautiful and relaxing beach
My family and I agree with the other 5 star reviewers.
Outdoors: The peninsula is very long and private. It's a great place for sitting and relaxing. The beach is large enough to play paddle ball, and fun to explore. There are two decent sized fields my 9 year old son enjoyed playing in. There was a fire pit on the patio to roast s'mores.
Inside: It's clean and stocked with everything we could need.
The area: It's worth the drive. We've rented places on Mount Desert Island before and have to say I much prefer this area of the coast. It's beautiful and but doesn't have crowds, and the locals are friendly.
We really enjoyed our vacation!

A serene paradise!
What an amazing little piece of heaven! This is the perfect pace if you are looking for a nice quiet spot away from the crowds to unwind at the end of the day in this gorgeous part of Maine. The "apartment", which is a lovely 3 bedroom home attached to the owners house, is ideal for those who like to eat a few meals in and few out. They have all the kitchen essentials...and then some, like spices and olive oil and tin foil...and little things that you need to cook a meal, but may have forgotten. Their welcome book is a treasure trove of information about the area that is so useful when you set out to explore. And then words can't describe how lovely and calming Fish Point is. We walked down every morning with our coffee to enjoy the quiet and watch the tide come in. We even saw a seal on our first day! Danielle and Claude have a very special place and they go out of their way to make sure your trip is special too. When I made our reservation, I had mentioned that my husband and I were coming to Maine to celebrate our birthdays...and then our first evening, we were greeted with wine and a birthday cake to celebrate! How amazing is that!! I can not say enough about this wonderful place and the wonderful hosts. You will be hard pressed to find better! Although it was nice to come home to our kiddos...I can not wait to go back again hopefully next year!!

Danielle helped us find excellent activities and restaurants. She is right that the Schoodic side of Arcadia National Park is even more beautiful than the Mt Desert Island side. We had a very full week and was nice to come back to Fish Point each evening where we had everything we could have needed.

Beautiful location, lovely residence, and great owners/property managers
This was a lovely spot for a vacation. The space was ideal for a group of four (or five). The rooms were very well appointed, well maintained and spotless. There was plenty of space for everyone and enough to give individuals some privacy when needed. The grounds were gorgeous and provided a sense of privacy and seclusion. It was a short walk to beautiful views of the inlet.
The town of Milbridge, which was a very short drive or a very "do-able" walk from the rental property, is quaint and pretty and offers the opportunity to interact with "quintessential downeasters"; plain spoken folks who share their unvarnished views in the vernacular of rural Maine. It is a delight.
For anyone thinking of getting away to a beautiful setting in a quaint community, I say, "This is the place to go." Danielle and Claude are warm and gracious hosts who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Their recommendations for meals and entertainment will lead you to little gems in the area. They will "bend over backward" to make sure that you enjoy your stay.
Wonderful setting, great price, first-rate hosts, and a community that provides a little slice of nostalgia for simpler times.
Go and enjoy,
Sherry and Abe and Laura and Quentin

This was a marvelous spot to paint, enjoy nature, read and just unwind from the pressure of everyday commitments. The rental was everything we had hoped it would be. We hope to return again.

Karen and her family are delightful people, and extraordinarily considerate guests. We enjoyed getting to know them a little while they were here.
It's lovely to hear they'd like to return--we would welcome them back in a heartbeat!

Perfect Maine Vacation
What a wonderfully Maine location overlooking the bay with access right down to the rocky shore. From coffee on the garden patio to happy hour on the point, this home away from home couldn't have been better. Our hosts Danielle and Claude were always available but respected our privacy as well. We'll be back for sure.

Exactly as described...
Danielle was great to work with. The apartment was just as described. It's a short walk out to the private point of land with secure steps down to the waterfront. If you're looking for quiet and seclusion, this is the place for you.

Lovely VRBO listing.
The apartment is nicer and roomier than the pictures portray. The owner's Danielle and Claude are just delightful people. We had a very nice visit with them.

Wonderful Stay
This house is truly charming between the incredible view and the cozy yet spacious feel. The house was even more beautiful than the pictures and absolutely spotless. It was well stocked with all the amenities, internet, television, and a priceless view. We especially enjoyed our stay because of our wonderful hosts, and owners of the property, Claude and Danielle. They helped us find attractions and also provided detailed maps, things to do, and guides. They were very nice and genuine people who ensured our trip was very relaxing. Although they lived in the adjacent house they provided us with privacy and our own space. We would definitely recommend it and hope to come back again and again.

Fishpoint Stay July 2015
Danielle and Claude were very personable and welcoming. They took the time to meet us and walk us through the property. The house was very cozy and comfortable. The location was ideal for Bar Harbor and north to Campobello Island. It was the best vacation we ever had as a family. We look forward to coming back!

Hi Veronica,
We really enjoyed having your family stay at Fish Point! And it was delightful to hear that this year's vacation ranked as a family "best." We'll look forward to seeing you again--and you can share with us how we can make that 5 stars for you, too. ;) Happy holiday time to you all.

You're right--we're not red squirrels. This fellow was caught on camera by one of our 2018 vacation guests who kindly shared some of his photos with us. (If you recall Rocky and Bullwinkle: yes, there are moose nearby too, though not right on our land.)
We're a husband and wife, seasoned vacation rental owner-operators, who have provided accommodations at our charming cape house across the bay to satisfied vacationers since 2009*, and at this property beginning in 2014. Now we live in this beautiful area full-time.
We began camping in Maine 20 years ago, working our way up the coast from York and Booth Bay till we discovered Acadia. In 2008, we bought a 3BR cape in Milbridge as a vacation home; renovated it; and fell in love with the beauty of the area, the community, and the neighborliness of DownEasters. (That property, VRBO 341321 -- titled All-Season Wonderland: Oceanfront Cape with spectacular views! -- is going on the market in 2021.)
In 2014, when we acquired Fish Point, we moved from NY's mid-Hudson Valley to live here full-time, and to open a small music & arts center for the area. We're a musician (singer, voice teacher, with a Bard B.A. and a Songwriting Master's from Berklee), and a retired IBM IT professional. We have over 20 years of DIY home renovation under our belts, too.
Por qué escogió este alojamiento
We knew this home for over a decade before it became ours; it was built by a good friend in the area.
This is an absolutely unique property, located so close to town, yet on a peaceful bayside road; 3.5 acres with its own oceanside nature preserve and a sand beach, so rare in Maine. In 2020 we built a gazebo, which we also share with guests! It truly is a paradise.
One feels in touch with the infinite here, in the most intimate way. Sunrises, dramatic cloud patterns and sunsets spread across the horizon. During the day, the water views go all the way out to sea; and there is the wooded Point, and sand beach, right here on the property. Eagles, hawks and ospreys circle high above, gulls soar, songbirds chatter in the trees closer by. Wildlife includes foxes and bobcats as well as more familiar animals. To go outdoors on a clear night is to be surrounded by a bowl of stars, that become brighter and more numerous the longer you look.
The 5,500 SF Cape Cod style house was built in 2002 as a dual-use facility: a private home, plus an attached, flexible, handicap-accessible apartment that's a completely independent living/rental unit. The house is conveniently close to the road for walking, biking, and winter access; while the broad field behind it has water views and the gazebo, and provides a scenic entry to the footbridge that leads to the serenity of the Point.
We run a small local arts institute, and are especially happy to welcome artists of all stripes who want to get away for Creativity Retreats.
Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial
For vacationers, businesspeople and traveling medical personnel, this is a special opportunity. Also, for stays of 28+ nights, if connected to your job, education or relocation to the area, you can be exempted from State sales tax. Ask us about this first! - We welcome travel nurses and other essential medical personnel for their standard 13-week contract stays. - Traveling business professionals also enjoy our facility. - Artists and other creatives who want to get away for some real productivity are welcomed for Creativity Retreats of varying lengths.
One special writers' retreat period is the whole month of November each year, when we offer special National Novel Writers' Month (NaNoWriMo) arrangements for participating writers, including optional support events.
When we bought this property and were renovating the building, we installed sound barriers between our living/studio spaces and the apartment, to keep that unit a quiet space for guests. We're considerate about the scheduling of sound-producing activities.
We provide all guests with a several-page list of our own favorite attractions, eateries, shops, etc., in advance. Their opening times, services, etc., are more variable than may be listed, due to the coronavirus, so always check with the establishment.
