About this property

WELCOME TO "ON THE ROCKS" COTTAGE Lakeside cottage near Acadia National Park!

Welcome to "On The Rocks" cottage.

Discover lakeside charm in this idyllic 1950's 2 bedroom lofted cottage nestled on the rocky shore of Beech Hill Pond, a deep water glacial lake. A classic 1950's Maine Lakeside cabin with an abundance of character and charm.

Beech Hill Pond is a haven for recreational lovers and only a short commute from the Acadia National Park Region and 20 mins from Ellsworth. Make this your perfect vacation getaway with an easy commute to Acadia National Park.

Newly renovated "On the Rocks" Cottage is built into a rocky hillside which accounts for many of its quirky features including laddered, low ceilinged, loft bedroom spaces and multi level yard spaces outside.

The main part of the cottage has an open floor plan that provides plenty of seating and dining space all with panoramic views of the pond. Featuring a spacious kitchen, dining room and living room with cathedral ceiling. Bedrooms include one downstairs and two laddered loft (low-ceilinged) bedrooms upstairs.

Outside areas feature multi level outside spaces, starting with a walking deck that leads down a few steps to a large spacious deck, ideal for barbecuing and outside dining. Go down a few more stairs and find the fire pit area, perfect for campfires, roasting marshmallows, entertaining or peaceful solitude overlooking the lake. Then move on down to a very private dock, built into the rocks, enjoy fishing, swimming, boating, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding or just relaxing. Cast for trophy smallmouth bass right off the dock. Enjoy your morning coffee on the dock and see stunning sunrises, a serene and peaceful way to start your day. Early in the morning the water is often like glass reflecting the clouds and the sunrise.

Get out on the water either via the canoe and kayaks provided with the cottage, or book a guided fishing trip or a sunrise or sunset cruise with Eagle Mountain Guide Service.

Enjoy all that Downeast Maine has to offer. Beech Hill Pond, is a beautiful 1,351 acre, 4 1/2 mile long spring fed lake. It's deepest point is 118 ft.

Beautiful Cabin on the Lake

This cabin was an absolute delight. So many thoughtful touches, views, and a cozy space. It was very relaxing, and we loved taking out the kayaks, canoe and paddleboard. Would definitely stay here again.

The house was great! Everything seemed new and very clean. The access to the water was great and it was amazing to be able to swim and use the kayaks. The house is definitely a bit remote, so next time we would get some groceries on our way in on day 1 so we could just hang at the lake the whole time!

The property is very true to the pictures and exactly what we were hoping for. The cottage was well suited for our family of 5 and perfect for a weeks stay. Everything you could need in the kitchen, grill, and dining was there and really well decorated. We absolutely loved the lake and all the amenities on the really cool dock including to SOP, kayaks and canoe. We caught Sunnies and small bass off the dock and larger bass when we rented a pontoon which was an awesome way to experience the lake. Getting to Acadia and Bar Harbor was easy just prepare for a full day out. This part of Maine is beautiful and pristine and well worth the hike from NJ. If you like lake life you won’t be disappointed with this property. Lisa was really well organized, easy to work with and checked in on us as we arrived. Can’t say enough positive things about her and the property.
