About this property

Beautiful Bay View Home, 1hr to Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park

This completely renovated, March 2017, Ranch features a beautiful view at the head of Narraguagus Bay. Relax on two huge decks and watch lobster boats come and go, enjoy breathtaking sunrises as you start your day and unwind with a peaceful sunset after exploring local attractions.

You are just steps to the water's edge, the Town Marina and Boat Launch. Kayaking, sea tours, fishing, and other water activities are a stones throw away. Or it's a short drive to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Petit Manan Lighthouse and the Coastal National Wildlife Refuge. You are also within walking distance to Milbridge Town Center, offering local cuisine, gift shops and shopping.

This home features a very open floor plan with wood floors throughout and all the comforts of home. Its coastal furnishings and decor accentuate "the way life should be". The master bedroom overlooks the bay, has a king bed and large sitting area. Bedroom 2 features a queen bed while bedroom 3 has a bunk bed with double bed on bottom and twin on top.

This centrally located home provides easy access to all of the exquisite attractions of Down East Maine and the southeastern coast of Canada.

This is a beautiful property with a lot of space. It has a great view of the bay and we enjoyed both sunrises and sunsets! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed--even a lobster pot for the lobsters we bought on the wharf. It's a quiet area with many nice hikes, but not a lot else to do. We enjoyed the Schoodic district of Acadia National Park (more than Mt desert Isle).

Comfortable and Peaceful Place to Stay

Our family of 5 loved staying in Ernest's beautiful home overlooking a bay. It was well stocked with all we needed and more for cooking meals. The layout was great and the beds were comfortable. It was a peaceful place to stay, close to Schoodic, and an easy hour to Bar Harbor.

Love Milbridge!

Love this small town and watching the tides from the living room and back porch. Pigeon Hill Preserve is a great hike that is minutes away. Robertson Sea Tours and Captain Robertson was a great experience and our fresh caught lobster was fun to cook.

Wonderful getaway

This property was perfect for getting to know Milbridge, Maine where my daughter is now living and working. We loved the location and opportunity to watch the lobster fishermen come and go. We were able to cook in the well stocked kitchen an amazing lobster dinner. The fire pit was awesome at night to see the stars.

Lovely Maine getaway

The property was perfect for the vacation we were hoping for. A bit off the beaten path (our distinct preference), charming views, wonderful bike riding right from our door, great lobster shacks, fabulous authentic Mexican takeout! The house is comfortable, clean, equipped with everything you could want. Friendly, helpful host just down the road. We will gladly return!

This property has everything! It’s not a rental, it’s a home. Clean as a whistle! Kitchen is well stocked with plenty of gadgets, utensils, all kinds of glassware and all the goodies for lobster dinner! We felt so at home. The view of the water is so relaxing. The owner is so generous with all the extras provided (forget a toothbrush? Deodorant? You’re covered!). Talk about a low stress weekend. We will be back.

Beautiful house with a view!

My family and I felt at home in this beautiful house. It's very homey and comfortable. I enjoyed my coffee every morning watching the boats going out. Everything you need is there and more! There is a great boating charter, Robertson Sea Charter, that you depart from right across the street from the house. The location is great. It's very quiet at night for enjoying a fire around the fire pit. Thank you for sharing this wonderful home.

My family of 5 stayed in this beautiful home. The decor is impecable! The kitchen was fully stocked. The bathrooms had extra supplies, plenty of towels. The homeowner pays attention to detail. The LP tank became emptied as we were using the grill. The host had one brought over in short period of time. Thank you for making our stay wonderful.
