About this property

Tranquil Lakefront Cottage Near Acadia Nat’l Park.

Indulge in the feeling of seclusion from an expansive deck overlooking a peaceful lake away from the hustle of everyday life. Enjoy daily swimming in the lovely gravel bottomed swimming area at the foot of the hill, although there is no beach. Savor spectacular sunsets on the deck after supper. Cottage has 1 large kitchen/dining/living room with 2 separate bedrooms and one full bath which is outside on the screened-in porch. The front bedroom has a queen bed & lake views while the back bedroom has a forest view with a double bed. There is one large front deck, and 1 small screened in side porch.

I do use the cottage myself when not rented & I have a Siamese cat that I bring with me. Please be aware of this if you have allergies. :)
I was able to install fiber optic Internet at camp Summer of 2024 so I have unlimited Internet now. That means you can watch movies, YouTube videos or anything your heart desires on your own devices.

Also, I had my well water evaluated spring of 2024 & it passed the potability test with no problems.

There is no fire pit at the property as it is in the middle of the woods & an unnoticed spark could be a disaster.

This is really the perfect place for a family get away. We’ve been staying here for the last seven years each summer, with two growing kids (now adult-sized) and our (also large) dog. We bring an air mattress for (said huge) kids to take turns with but we’re used to sharing small spaces and this is all perfect and just enough for all of us. The pond, Acadia, nearby special spots to get coffee and pastries and pizza- it’s just what we look forward to each summer.

The location is breathtaking and the house was very comfortable. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The beds were beyond comfortable. I was up most mornings to watch the sunrise and listen to the Loons calling out. The house is well stocked including a few tools that came in handy when the lift on my car broke and we couldn't close the trunk. My dog absolutely loved the lake and went swimming several times a day (every day). We hope to be able to come back next year.

This secluded lakefront cabin is an absolute dream for anyone seeking peace and tranquility. Nestled deep in nature, the property offers complete privacy and unmatched, panoramic views of the water right from the deck. The surroundings are incredibly quiet, with only the gentle sounds of the lake and rustling leaves breaking the silence. It is the perfect spot to unplug, unwind, and watch the sunset over the water. The cabin itself is cozy, exceptionally clean, and fully equipped with everything needed for a relaxing getaway. I cannot recommend this hidden gem enough and will definitely be returning.

Beautiful Property, great location

For our family this was a great property to relax and enjoy but also able to reach areas in Maine we wanted to visit. I appreciated communications with the owner and she was very accommodating when we had a booking issue.

Perfect romantic getaway

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was perfect! This was our first trip to Maine and Cindy’s cottage was exactly what we were looking for. It was cozy, quiet, and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the nearby activities in Ellsworth, Bar Harbor, and Acadia NP as well as relaxing at the cottage and sitting on the screened in porch. Hearing the loons on the lake in the mornings and evenings was an added bonus! We would stay here again, highly recommend!

Comfortable, cozy, lakeside home with killer views. It's quiet, well-stocked kitchen (equipment) and is great proximity for so many outings, whether to Acadia, Schoodic, Blue Hill, Deer Isle or . . . And loons.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Hagerthy

Host profile image
I am a retired travel agent & have traveled the world. In spite of the many beautiful places I have seen, to me my cottage is equal to them all. I love Siamese cats, spinning wool, knitting & baking.

Why they chose this property

I inherited this cottage from my parents who built it themselves with help from neighbors & friends in the 1950's. I spent nearly every summer here as a girl, swimming & boating with my family & friends. It feels remote but is close to shopping & entertainment although I find that I hate to depart once I'm there & only leave for groceries.

The cottage is approx 25 miles from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, 20 miles to artsy Blue Hill, and within an hour of panoramic Deer Isle.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is on a hill overlooking the lake & is a small climb down to a gravel bottomed swimming area. There are few camps on this lake, so you will be unlikely to see very much of your neighbors. There is no public boat launch on the lake, so only bring canoes or kayaks that are light enough to carry down the hill yourself & back up again.
