About this property
Oceanfront retreat with sunrise views, screened porch, & deck
Admire spectacular views of Mt. Desert Narrows from nearly every room of this oceanfront cottage, peacefully situated in a wooded grove on Brooklin's scenic shores. This is what coastal living in Maine is all about - sipping your coffee on the screened porch at sunrise and watching the passing sailboats from your deck in the afternoon.
This single-story, oceanfront home sits five miles north of small-town Brooklin. The house itself is private and independent, but it is also part of a larger family compound with a common road (and the homeowner living next door). Hike the Hundred Acre Wood Trail just down the street, head out to Deer Isle for a quiet day of exploring (eight miles south), and take unforgettable excursions to Acadia National Park (37 miles).
The cottage is a showcase of its surroundings, from the path that leads through the trees to the ocean shore to the glass doors and windows that frame the view at every turn. After a day spent hiking, kayaking, sailing, or driving the Midcoast, come home to light the gas grill, share stories on the back deck, and dine outside in the fresh ocean air.
Inside, the light-filled living space is accented by an open floor plan and beautiful details of natural wood. Whether you're utilizing the stainless steel kitchen appliances to prepare dinner, playing board games at the dining room table, or streaming movies in the living room, you'll do it all with a panoramic view of the water. Come nightfall, rest assured that everyone will sleep soundly amidst the plush bedding available in each of the bedrooms.

A beautiful cottage with spectacular views, right on the water

Response from VrboOwner on 21 Aug 2026
Roger thank you for the review and this home really is on a beautiful Maine coastal setting. We are glad you enjoyed its beauty and hope you can come see us again real soon.
The views were outstanding. Charming coastal cabin. Exceeded all our expectations. Cozy and comfortable for my family of six. Four of which are teenagers.
What an amazing house and scenery. Very clean and the amenities, including the bath towels were fantastic. Tucked away but easy to get to town. Cannot wait to go back.
This was one of the best rentals we have stayed in for our family vacation. We enjoyed climbing on the rocks, exploring the coast, the location (close enough to Acadia), and the small town down the road. This place was incredibly cozy, clean, and inviting. The views of the water were spectacular!
This property was everything we imagined and more. The views can't be beat and the house so nice and cozy.

Great stay!
It was a wonderful week of exploring Maine's Acadia National Park and visiting the little towns. The house was always a welcome sight after all the daily activities. We would book again.

Wonderful Stay in Brooklin
The pictures do not do the property justice. It is a delightful spot and the house is well appointed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
Beautiful views. We saw eagles,seals and a crab boat checking his pots. We drove to bar harbor several times with plenty of sea food places along the way. There was 5 of us and we had lots of room to relax.
Loved the location !!!
Beautiful, peaceful , very enjoyable
We’ll be back.
