Spacious Oceanfront Chalet: Hot tub, Game Room, Arcade
Enjoy a spacious coastal haven with sunset views from your private ocean cove. Nestled in the woods with direct access from the property to kayaking, swimming, hiking, walking trails and seashore exploration. Singing Shores sits up high, overlooking stunning ocean vistas where you can sip your morning coffee while watching seals and eagles from the sprawling deck. Located 30 minutes to Acadia, MDI and Schoodic; 40 minutes to Bar Harbor; 10 minutes to Ellsworth (groceries, restaurants, shopping).
This chalet home is privately nestled along the shore of Kilkenny Cove, abutting conservation land and surrounded by trees, ocean and a stream. Take a paddle around one of the nearby islands during sunset or choose to relax and enjoy the evening sky around the fire pit or from the comfort of the newly installed hot tub. The whole group will have a blast playing in the game rooms, which include ping pong, shuffleboard, Pop-a-shot basketball and an arcade room. When you want some down time, you can lounge in a hammock or take a stroll along the rocky shore during low tide and enjoy the resident wildlife. The magnificent Great Room serves as the heart of the home, offering a generous gathering space with lots of natural light, plush seating and views of the ocean. It's the perfect place to unwind, share conversations, or simply take in the beauty of the coastline.
Situated halfway between Acadia National Park’s two primary locations on Mount Desert Island and on the Schoodic Peninsula (each 30 minutes away), and 5-20 minutes away from a variety of additional hiking, boating and ocean-themed outings, you will have no shortage of opportunities for adventure.
The home is ~10 minutes away from Ellsworth with restaurants, groceries and shopping.

Singing Shores — A Year-Round Retreat This comfortable home is available to book year-round and is truly a destination in itself. Whether you’re visiting for cozy winter nights or sunny summer days, there’s always something special to enjoy here.
Other things to note (December through March) In the winter months, all-wheel drive is necessary to access the home. The property is very private and located down a long driveway. While the driveway is plowed and sanded regularly, a suitable vehicle is required during the colder, icy months.
Also, during the colder months, access to the fire pit is not maintained or shoveled if there is snow. The kayaks are stored for the season, and the stairs leading down to the water have been removed to prevent damage. Guests are welcome to enjoy the outdoor areas at their own discretion.
Book your stay at Singing Shores and experience a getaway where you can relax, have adventures and make some memories.

Can’t imagine anyone complaining about this property. The house, location, amenities and thoughtfulness of hosts was excellent. We stayed for 2 weeks and could have stayed longer. Although we went to many surrounding towns, our favorite activity was sitting around the fire pit for hours reading, eating s’mores, and the family just talking. Wonderful vacation!

It was an absolute pleasure to host you and your family. We’re so glad your favorite activity was being at the house and enjoying all it has to offer. Thank you for staying with us and please stay with us any time!
We loved staying here. The sunsets from the balcony were stunning. We found the kitchen well stocked and appreciated the extra Maine treats left for us. After hiking, the hot tub felt great. We really enjoyed the 2 places we tried from the recommendations--Provender and Little Notch Bakery. The game room was great on the one rainy afternoon. We all want to visit again.

Thank you for the wonderful review. I’m glad you enjoyed the sunsets and the hot tub after hiking. We’re happy our house had everything you needed and would be delighted to host you again.
This beautiful property has a lot to offer. The hosts are wonderful. Family visited Acadia National Park for two days and this property was perfect as a “home base”. 20 minutes from bar harbor, the chalet has amazing ocean views. Great for big families because of how spacious it is. Very clean and owners go above and beyond to make you feel at home! Would highly recommend.
We have stayed at dozens of VRBOs and this was the best! The house and amenities were perfect setting to discover Maine. We have 9 family members and everyone was comfortable and happy!! The kitchen is well stocked. They provided so many special touches. My grandson LOVED the smores and fire pit. The game room provided great entertainment on the rainy day. Again thoughtful touches with popcorn and snacks to make our family game day marathon a big success. The house was amazing. Absolutely no complaints. The owners were very quick to respond with any needs. We had a 2 year old and everything was there to use (pack and play, high chair and toys). The location was also a treasure. We do a lot of cooking, so having a grocery store near by was convenient. The drive over to Acadia was pretty and not too far. Just a perfect Maine vacation!!!

We truly loved hosting you and your family! I'm so glad you enjoyed all of the amenities and were able to have family time hanging out by the fire pit and enjoying the game room. Please come stay with us again the next time you're back in Maine!
We go up to the Bar Harbor/Ellsworth a few times a year as we have family there and are completely in love with the area. We stumbled upon this gem in a last minute decision to go up for the holiday weekend to see family. This was our favorite place we have stayed in the area!Let’s start with the pros:Spacious and bright open concept home with a gorgeous view of the bay. You don’t see any other neighbors. There is a small stream with a tiny waterfall that runs down along the property, so sitting on the deck we could hear it running into the bay. The bedrooms are spaced out nicely and the living room/dining room/deck have plenty of seating. The game room was a huge hit with adults and kids and the hot tub was crystal clear and smelled clean (I’m super picky about this as I will not go in a hot tub that smells unbalanced due to high bacteria but I was in this hot tub 3 times!). Master suite is an absolute dream with a huge closet and spacious bathroom, not to mention you open your eyes to views of sparkling water. Cons:Having to go home. Also, the driveway can be a little tricky but once you pull in it’s so private and beautiful. We were so excited to be the first guests at this house and were really pleased with how much thought was put into the details. We will definitely be back and highly recommend the home, the location, and the hosts!

Why they chose this property
My husband and I fell in love with Acadia for its hiking, paddling and scenery. This house is the perfect place to relax and have adventures. We hope guests enjoy it as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
This home is not only perfectly situated between Acadia National Park and Schoodic Point, but it's also a destination in its own right. Nestled on a private ocean cove, your only neighbors here are the eagles and seals. With so much to see and do right on the property, you may never want to leave.
