About this property

Waterfront-Lakeside Living! Close to Acadia+Schoodic Point+Bar Harbor-Pets ok

"Sweet Fern" is a new listing on VRBO that is being offered starting late May 2024. We invite you to experience this lovely Lakefront home right on 'Georges Pond'.

If you love beautiful, crystal clear lakes, kayaking, swimming and paddle-boarding 'and' being near Acadia National Park, this property is for you!

Franklin is a special location a little off the beaten path but that makes it so unique as it is very close to Acadia National Park both Bar Harbor and even closer to the magnificent Schoodic Point Acadia!

Franklin's namesake is none other than Benjamin Franklin!

This part of Maine is best known for being blueberry country. It is filled with coastal character and more blueberry fields than you can imagine! Fields of purple-blue in the summer and fiery red in the fall.

Come enjoy "Sweet Fern" Cottage late May - mid October and experience the seasons in Downeast Maine!

We offer 2 large bedrooms, one with a king size bed with an en suite full bathroom with tub and the second bedroom has 2 twin beds. An additional full size bathroom too.

A large open floor plan with a updated kitchen with all new appliances. Living and dining room have expansive windows overlooking Georges Pond (We call lakes 'ponds' in Maine).

The views are beautiful and you can watch sunrise and sunset right from the amazing open air porch and deck complete with comfortable new furniture, dining table and grill. You will love living outside overlooking the lake!

Private deck right on the lake where you can tie up your kayaks, paddle boards or canoe. Swim, paddle or just have a lazy day overlooking the crystal clear lake with a great book and beverage!

Come visit, relax, restore and enjoy a blissful week in Maine.

Once you reserve your week, we will contact you directly within 24 hours or less and send you a simple rental agreement.
