Some of my family and I stayed here for a week the views were absolutely gorgeous, the cabin it's self was nice only problem we really had was when we got into the cabin there was black mold in the coffee pot, there were crumbs and food left on the couch so it definitely could have been cleaned better. But other than that tiny issue our stay was unforgettable within the first hour of arriving we seen a group of porpoises chancing a school of herring! We seen a beautiful pair of bald eagles that had to have a nest close by because we seen them everyday, and got to spot a few baby crabs while the tide was low. One thing that definitely caught us off guard was the sound a seal makes when defending their territory lol we heard them in the middle of the night while enjoying the screened in porch and it was a bit unsettling at first but very cool at the same time. Definitely a lot of wild life just right outside! Would definitely recommend

This property is in a great location. We went north and found things to do. It’s only an hour from Bar Harbor and Acadia. We did quite a bit of hiking and it was close. Loved the Petit Manan hike. Bed was very comfortable and it was quiet and peaceful.

What a wonderful stay we had at this property. All the amenities are pitch perfect for us and the location and area are what we always look for in a vacation home. It is a short drive to hiking, kayaking, as well as groceries. The screened porch makes any weather tolerable. We find complete relaxation here. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful escape from it all.

The cabin was beautiful, clean and well-stocked with everything we needed for a weeklong stay. My family enjoyed exploring the water’s edge and laying in the hammock, and we all enjoyed the peace and quiet (and sunsets on the non-foggy days). The Magee’s were excellent hosts, checking in with us twice during the week. Thank you so much for sharing your cabin with us!

Peaceful retreat.

The Magee’s cottage was such a slice of heaven! It feels like they have opened their home to you. They offered many helpful local suggestions. My favorite place was the screened porch to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. It was the perfect location for us to enjoy things both north and south of the cabin. It was our first trip to Maine and hopefully not our last!

A peaceful spot

A shady and peaceful respite by a rocky shore...what could be better! We grilled and enjoyed having our dinner on the mossy “patio.” We rented a canoe and set sail right from the back yard. The property was close to many wonderful trails and destinations...Wonderland and the Park Loop being personal favorites. The house was clean and lovely. What more can be said, we had a lovely time and hope to return again!

Beautiful Cottage on the water!

We feel as if the photos do not capture how amazing this place is! Beautiful, relaxing location. Tons of crabs in the tide pools for the kids to find. All of the necessities and a well equipped kitchen. Away from the hustle and bustle of Acadia NP, while still capturing what Maine is about! We ate lobster every day we were there, and enjoyed being in the small town of Milbridge. Hosts were great, and communicated with us and answered any questions we had.

Lovely stay

We had a great stay at the Magees’ cabin on Bar Island. Dennis called after we arrived to make sure we were settling in okay. Their cabin is so comfortable- kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals, screen porch was great for relaxing any time. Lots of personal touches made it very welcoming. We enjoyed visiting the rocks and watching the tides, seagulls, shore birds and lobster boats, and walking on the island road. We visited local towns and businesses (recommend Ray’s Meat Market, Chipman’s Wharf, the Knotty Lobster, Robertson’s Sea Tours), and Schoodic Point. The Magees provide lots of suggestions for things to see and do. Great value, so glad we found this one!

Great experience!

Felt like being welcomed home. Beautiful property. Beautiful home. The Magees were very pleasant to talk to and readily available if needed, though they have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. Such a relaxing place to be and we were truly blessed to have the opportunity. We spent most of our time down by the water watching the many different birds, crabs, seals, dolphins, red squirrels (quite the little characters) and deer as well as the boats coming and going and the neighbors digging for clams during low tide. Also thoroughly enjoyed reading Dennis' autobiography!
