A beautiful home with stunning views! Perfect for a romantic getaway! 35 mins to Bar Harbor and Acadia, 15 minutes to Schoodic Peninsula.There are also several local places to eat nearby. A hour drive South and you can see historic Castine and Dyce Head Lighthouse. There are also 2 lighthouses on Schoodic Peninsula.
The property was excellant, everything we were hoping for.

The ocean view with the lush tall trees was so amazing. It was very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed sitting in the lounge chairs by the water and using the fire pit. The house itself is lovely and well maintained. We were totally happy with our decision to stay there.

Super pleasant, quiet, private, comfortable, well provisioned.
We felt completely at ease and enjoyed the wildlife and ocean. In fact, we cut a trip to Bar Harbor on our last day so we could spend more time!
