About this property
Oceanfront Cottage, Near Acadia National Park, Private Beach
Oceanfront cottage with 200 feet of private pebble beach and beautiful view of Western Bay and mountains of Acadia National Park. Situated on 3/4 acre, this cottage is conveniently located in a quiet, wooded setting yet only 10 miles to Acadia National Park and 12 miles to Bar Harbor. Cottage has 2 bedrooms, living room, bath room, open kitchen with all new appliances, and spacious dining area with direct view of the ocean. Enjoy watching the sunrise over the mountains or the beauty of the moonlight on the water. Please be aware that this is a brand new cottage built in 2023-2024 to replace the old cabin we had on this property and to which the reviews refer. We tried to rebuild in the style of the old cabin because we loved it so much, but it was getting difficult to maintain after so many years. The new house has an even better view of the water than the old cabin because it is sited differently. It is fully insulated to Maine building code and has electric heat throughout.

Activities: Swim, kayak, walk, bike, or just sit and read a book on the deck or private beach.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Robert and Patricia Banach
Bob and Pat are recently retired. Pat was a librarian and Bob worked in the insurance industry. We enjoy sharing our special place in Maine with guests. We have owned, managed, and rented this property since 1987. In 2023/24 we razed our beloved cabin and built a new small house which captures the charm of a Maine cabin. We use this cottage ourselves as do our adult children. This is not a bare bones rental, but one we share with those who are seeking a quiet Maine experience. Because we use the cabin ourselves, we hope it has all the amenities you need.
Why they chose this property
We love the peace and quiet on our 200 feet of private beach. We love the view across the bay to the mountains of Acadia National Park. We love watching the sunrise from the bedroom and the living/dining room, and the moon on the water at night. And we love watching to see a glimpse of seals in the bay.
What makes this property unique
Close to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor but away from the crowds in a quiet peaceful spot. Also convenient to Ellsworth for dining, grocery shopping and supplies.
