Located on a gorgeous 32-acre property just 8 minutes from Franklin, The Cottage offers a serene waterfront haven. Take the canoe and kayak out on Great Pond. Enjoy alfresco meals on the deck, then gather around the firepit. This one bedroom vacation rental offers a genuine cabin feel with modern upgrades and all the comforts of home. If traveling with a larger group, consider also renting The Cabin -- located about a 10-minute walk away.

After fun-filled days, relax in the comfy living area and watch a new movie on the smart TV. The well-equipped kitchen has everything needed to create your favorite dishes. When it’s time to dine, the table seats four. The Cottage has a queen bed in the bedroom and a full-size futon in the living area. The bathroom is configured with a tub/shower combination. A twin bed can be found in the open loft area. The loft is accessed via a steep ladder, safety rails recently added.

The wraparound deck has incredible vistas of the surrounding woods and peekaboo lake views. Make use of the gas grill and enjoy an afternoon cookout. Enjoy starlit nights around the wood-burning firepit. This lakefront property includes the use of a canoe, kayak and paddleboard. The Cottage has a three-story layout with a ramp to the front door. Additional perks include complimentary Wi-Fi and a private washer/dryer.

Nestled on Great Pond, your vacation home offers wonderful seclusion, but is still only an 8-minute drive from Franklin and a 20-minute drive from Ellsworth. For an incredible day trip, pay a visit to Acadia National Park or Bar Harbor.
