About this property

Beautiful Acadia views on 4 serene acres. Private and peaceful after exploring

A peaceful and private location on Flanders Bay. PANORAMIC OCEAN VIEWS of Mt Desert Island on a bay that is perfect for kayaking, sitting by the bay and watching eagles and seals, and beautiful sunsets. My dog Annie and I love a friendly dog visitor as well. The apartment is a studio design with comfy king size bed, living room, mini kitchenette with full size refrigerator available, your own deck with water views, grill, , hammock and all you need to enjoy a peaceful and private Maine vacation. My home provides a private distance and is detached. I offer two LL Bean cruising bikes and kayaks for your use no charge. (Use of bikes and kayaks are at your own risk owner is not responsible for injuries with both or shore injury). )Located between Schoodic Peninsula and Ellsworth both just 15 minutes away. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are about a 30-40 min drive. Your dog is welcome if housebroken. (A crate, I can provide, for your time away is appreciated if you have any doubts about damages) All the comforts of home are here and everything you want to experience on your Maine vacation are accessible! Enjoy sightseeing Downeast Maine, it's lighthouses, reversing falls, peaceful hikes, and quiet ponds as well as Acadia National Park, Blue Hill, Stonington in the opposite direction within 30-45 minutes. Within walking distance you can enjoy lobster dinner, BBQ, ice cream, and scenic highway 1A.
This location offers it all! Peace and solitude, lakes, private ponds with beaches, ocean, hikes on and off Acadia within minutes from my home and all that scenic Rt 1 has to offer in Downeast Maine! Quintessential Maine experience in every direction. Guests consistently review appreciation for the peace and quiet here at the end of busy days in Acadia. My home is rented a few weeks during each summer and you will be advised at time of request if anyone other than the host is occupying.

This comfy studio apartment instantly feels like home away from home. All linens, towels, beach towels, pet cover and towel, coffee maker, coffee and tea, a bottle of wine to welcome your stay and more! The outdoor shower is a must try!. High pressure, hot water, private, all toiletries supplied! The fire pit by shore makes for a peaceful evening. The bay beckons a kayak paddle at sunset! Comforts of home are so important to me as a host!

Melaine Rd is a private driveway that connects three homes. 5 mph max please especially as passing neighbors homes.

We are repeat guests and love the property and area. Misty is great communicator and will ensure you are informed and offer suggestions for things like activities and where to eat. The size of the guest house is perfect for us and we had all the essential amenities like coffee pot, smart TV and cook/dinnerware. Love having a nice campfire by the bay and watching sunsets, the isolation is ideal.

We could not have asked for a better host, location or apartment. It was a perfect tranquil area, away from all the hubbub, yet beautiful views of the ocean and Acadia. Local restaurants were great, and the host gave us a great list of places to see. I am so glad we stayed at this clean comfortable apartment that was near so many beautiful sites. Hope to return!

Misty's place was a haven for my wife and I for few days. The back yard is amazing with multiple hammocks, tons of outdoor chairs, and steps to the water. The room was clean and had everything we needed. The stay quiet, no bothersome noise at all. There were 3 friendly dogs that saw occasionally when we were outside (we did not hear them from our room). Great place to see the stars and meteor showers. Recommend going to Ellsworth for restaurants.

Great location. Convenient to Mt. Desert Island/Acadia and the Schoodic Peninsula. We took a day trip to Campobello Island in Canada, since it was so close. The host, Misty, is terrific. Truly pet-friendly (as opposed to pet-tolerant) and she strives to ensure that your stay meets all your expectations. Great communication Also fun to see the harbor seal, eagle, and baffle heads while sitting in the back yard.

About the host

Hosted by Misty Gleason. 706-799-4126

Host profile image
this home has become my personal "heaven on earth". I hope to share my special spot with others enjoying privacy for each of us but also opportunity to build new friendships. This is a quiet location just off scenic Rt.1 providing gorgeous drives in both directions.

Why they chose this property

I am on 4 private acres. Lobster boats are the only activity you'll see in addition to an occasional kayak or two. Bald eagles are viewed daily. The yard gives you a peaceful repose by the water. Activity is available in every direction. Schoodic Peninsula, charming Winter Harbor, golf, tennis, galleries, antiques, and views everywhere. Mt Desert Island is 30-40 min. . My home sleeping 6 is an additional option to rent for family events.

Sullivan is the entry to the Scenic Byway which is Rt. 1 in Hancock County in what's considered Downeast Maine. The Scenic Byway leads you along the coastal towns heading north and east. I'm also located 30 minutes from Mt Desert Island with all the beauty of Acadia, boundless hikes and carraige trails and tons of entertainment!

What makes this property unique

Free kayaks and bikes included. Peace and quiet. Viewing eagles, seals, blue herons, osprey are common. The view is amazing, sunsets breathtaking and cool ocean breeze soothing.
