This was the perfect home-base for our trip to Acadia. The view over the water as the sun came up each morning was the true highlight, but we also appreciated the quiet, clean & cozy cottage and the lovely garden setting. There were amenities close by in Blue Hill - grocery, Walgreens, and some restaurants, and Bar Harbor was about an hour drive. Perfect for our stay, and we would definitely recommend it!

The view from the spacious sitting was terrific – large windows looking right out onto the sailboat-filled bay – and the location was terrific. (The bedrooms were small, but that's offered as information for others, not as a complaint.)

We loved the rustic cottage and wonderful harbor view. Morning coffee and evening cocktails on the lawn chairs by the water were so relaxing. Highly recommend this as a bit off grid totally relaxing spot.

My husband and I enjoyed spending time in the cabin so much that we couldn’t wait to return from our daytime adventures just to enjoy the space and beautiful harbor views.

Rustic charm

This was a quaint cottage with a beautiful view. It was secluded and a much needed break from electronics. I could spend all day looking at the view from inside and outside the cottage!

Mother-daughter trip

The hosts checked in on us several times. They made suggestions for the area and answered questions. The location feels secluded, is super quiet, and has amazing views of the bay and its ever-changing array of boats.

The house wildly surpassed my expectations; the photos really don’t do it justice. It’s perfectly located in the center of all we wanted to see. The view over the harbor is breathtaking. We got up to watch sunrise both mornings. The house itself is cute and quaint and very clean. The double bed was incredibly comfortable. Couldn’t have asked for anything better, so pleased we decided to stay here! Very much looking forward to coming back.

Wonderful stay

Everything was wonderful! The view was amazing and the home was clean and had everything we needed. The location is quiet and peaceful while only a 10-15 minute drive for necessities. The biggest challenge is wanting to explore the area but not wanting to leave! We had a minor issue at check-in that was resolved promptly by the host. It was a nice relaxing stay and we would definitely stay again!

Idyllic

This is a spectacular property overlooking the tidal Benjamin River, seen through the huge windows in the livingroom as well as from a nice outdoor deck, patios and expansive lawn with Adirondack chairs. The beds were super comfy, kitchen had everything we needed, and it was very convenient to get to Deer Isle, Blue Hill and all the other nearby towns. Highly recommended!

The view was absolutely gorgeous and the location was great. The host was communicative and the side porch was lovely to hang out on. Plus the dock was very cool to have access to. Will be back for sure! Note: I think the listing says one of the bedrooms has two beds in it, and that is not correct. Each room has one full bed in it and the living room has a pull out couch. No big deal, just thought it should be noted.

Quiet, cozy and beautiful view!

Property is exactly as pictured! Right on the water, amazing views of boats coming in and out of the harbor. Perfect if you are looking to avoid the crowds, just be aware most of the major attractions (Acadia, Bar Harbor, Searsport etc) are about an hour away. There is a decent little grocery store in nearby Blue Hill, and a Walmart and other major outlets in Ellsworth. Definitely worth a stay!

Long weekend getaway

The cottage is beautiful, spacious. We were the first guests of the season. A little glitchy getting in at first. Kitchen was missing a few items, dish towels, oven mitts... Sleeping quarters comfortable and roomy. Pullout couch cery comfortable.
