About this property

Oceanfront Cottage - spectacular Views Minutes from Acadia National Park

This comfortable, fully equipped, 3 bedroom, 2 bath, ocean front cottage has stunning views of Blue Hill bay. We are located in West Tremont, between Bass Harbor & Seal Cove, on the western side of Mt. Desert Island, minutes from Acadia National Park. Some of the best hiking is on this side of the island. Enjoy views from the large wrap around deck or sit on the rocks feet from the ocean to enjoy sunsets and listen to the loons. PETS ARE WELCOME - NON SMOKING

We are seven mi. from Southwest Harbor’s stores & restaurants, and Bar Harbor is only 20 miles away. There is a fully equipped kitchen, washer & dryer, and heaters in both bathrooms, downstairs bedrooms and the main area for cool coastal mornings. Sea breezes provide cooling on hot days, fans are provided. Upstairs bedroom with king bed, small private deck and bath with shower. Downstairs bedroom with queen bed, bedroom with two twin beds, bathroom with full shower and bathtub. Gas grill, Wifi, smart TVs, DVD, plenty of parking, and screened shed for storage of bikes.
There are houses along this shore, we do have neighbors on both sides, but the area retains a rural feel with woods and trails and much wildlife.
We are on the rocky Maine coast, you can sit and climb on the rocks at the water's edge but it is difficult to launch kayaks from the rocks. There are many launch sites (sea and lake) nearby as well as a rental directly on a nearby lake.
This is our family’s seasonal cottage which we welcome you to share. We live in the house for several months each year so it is set up as our home, not just as a rental, and is very comfortable. The view is amazing!

Note: Weekly rentals only. Saturday to Saturday.

Other Nearby Activities: Walking, hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, boat rides, bird watching, star gazing, whale watches, nature cruises

About the host

Hosted by Ann Stuart

Host profile image
We inherited our family cottage in 2006. The family has spent many wonderful vacations here since 1969. Since retiring we live in the house for several months each year in the spring and fall and live nearby during the rental season.

Why they chose this property

The Maine oceanfront with it's stunning views. Great bird and wildlife watching. Acadia National Park has miles of trails and carriage paths for walking and hiking, miles for bicycling, paths by the ocean and through the woods, ocean and many lakes, great kayaking, swimming and canoeing. Any outdoor activity is available. We love the ocean and we love the outdoors. Mount Desert Island combines both and offers endless outdoor opportunities at any level and everywhere you look is beauty.

What makes this property unique

We think our view is one of the nicest on the island. We never tire of sitting on the deck watching the ocean, sitting on the benches by the water viewing the sunsets and wildlife and being on the rocks right by the ocean. Because we live in the house for several months each year is it set up as our home and is very comfortable. Pets are most welcome.
