This home is in a very quiet area, yet is close to the most popular sights in this part of Maine. It was a wonderful place to wind down from doing touristy things. Recommend for groups since there is lots of room to spread out. We especially liked the fire ring stocked with campfire ready wood and surrounded by nice Adirondack chairs.

Great stay! Lots of space for everyone. Great kitchen to cook in. Loved sitting on the porch rockers every morning for coffee. Good size for a family. The two kings in one room is great if you have lots of kids.

Amazing Night Sky

The property was beautiful in the daytime and stunning at night. Sitting around the fire at night on clear nights revealed a majestic view of the stars capped off by hundreds and thousands of fireflies. The host was responsive to our questions and quick to respond as well.

Truly a wonderful property and stay. Home was well kept and comfortable. Grounds were wonderful to watch the clouds, have campfires, enjoy coffee in the morning, play bags. We found the location to be perfect - secluded and peaceful, but only an hour away from Acadia, Camden and a short, lovely drive to our favorite little town of Belfast. Easy 10 minute drive to grocery store - and if needed, 1/2 hour/45 minutes to larger stores and airport. Terrific farm-stands all over for fresh vegetables and, of course, blueberries! Hosts super helpful and communicative. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Tides Reach Review

The property is secluded and sweet. Our family had space to sprawl or hang together. The property is from Acadia National Park and less than 20 min from a nice little public beach. It was a great home base for my active family. The hosts were communicative and responsive to any questions we had. We highly recommend!

Quiet and restful

The house is situated in a field in which deer and turkeys graze. A great setting. Kitchen and main bath are great. Main bedroom bed is comfortable. It's a great place to get away from it all yet isn't far from some great Maine places. The view of the river could be better, but it still contributes to a sense of restfulness and peace. It provided everything we wanted in a stay in Maine.

wonderful property

This is a great property, not far from Bucksport stores and amenities. We only stayed 3 nights, but each and every day we saw deer grazing around the yard :-) One time it was a group of 4 of them ! The house is clean and has lots of room, kitchen area is spacious with everything you need. The water area isn't easily accessible or useable, but beautiful to see through the trees from the bedroom and eating area. The host is friendly and was very quick to respond when I asked a question. Overall, I'd recommend staying here.

Spring trip/college trip

Great location. Convenient to Castine for college tour. Not far from local Hannaford, Fort Knox, or Bucksport. Loved having water views in the morning while having breakfast. Saw a few eagles flying by every day in the morning. Beds were comfy, kitchen met our needs, Even used the fire pit one evening as the weather was cooperative. Water took a few minutes to warm up before you could jump in and take a shower. We spaced out everyone's shower to make sure we didn't run out of hot water. Internet worked great. Will keep this on our list for return visits.

Our stay at Tides' Reach was memorable and I will begin by saying that we would stay here again. The home is spacious, the property is secluded yet easy to find. Between walks down to the river, sitting around a campfire or family games at the table, there are plenty of activities to keep everyone busy.We arrived at night under the stars....beautiful, but very dark. We had a slight issue at check in with our door code not working and the porch light being burned out, inconvenient...yes, however Brian was responsive and we were able to get into the house in a matter of 10 mins. The next morning, new bulbs were swapped out and we were back in business!Location wise, we felt this property was perfect. Grocery store nearby in Bucksport along with some nice restaurants and fresh seafood if you feel like cooking. Within an hours drive of Acadia, Bar Harbor and Camden....all wonderful day trips. Thanks again & we look forward to a trip back to Tides' Reach!

10/10... 100% worth it!

This vacation property was everything it advertised + Plus! What you can't see in the pictures is how beautiful the surrounding nature is or the deer running through the yard. You have complete peace and quiet at the property but still only a 3 mile drive to Bucksport, where you have the amenities of groceries, banking, pharmacy, cafes and restaurants. The host were very responsive and clear in communication. The most important thing for us (which you can't see in pictures) is that the house was extremely clean. It's a big house and all rooms were very clean and stocked with everything we needed during our week long stay. We hope to be back some day. Cheers!

Need more than 5 stars for this property

We celebrated our 36th anniversary here and we loved every minute of it. The property is quiet and secluded and we had 3 deer and probably 20+ turkeys in the yard nearly every morning. The kitchen was great and nicely appointed with lots of pots and pans. Living room was comfy and the master bedroom and bathroom was spacious and very nice. The house is located nicely near great places to see. We went all the way to Eastport to Rayes Mustard Mill and leaned they are not open on Mondays :⁠-⁠(. We did Fort Knox and that was a neat place to explore. Of course, we always spend lots of time in Acadia National Park, and the weather was spectacular. We enjoyed a couple hours of watching the sun go down from the tip of Schoodic Peninsula (Acadia North we like to call it). Our hosts were very easy to communicate with and they were very quick as well. We left relaxed and rested after a week and hope we can stay here again in the future. Highly recommend that you consider this place for your stay. Thank you again to our wonderful hosts, sharing their home with us.
