About this property

Acadia Long Pond Waterfront Cottage on lake- private dock kayak hot tub Sleeps 6

*Available Year Round!* Pinon Cottage is nestled in a private wooded setting on Long Pond, a favorite pond on Mount Desert Island for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing and listening to the resident loons. Complete with its own dock on the pond, large deck with comfortable seating, hot tub, and screened in porch, this cottage is the perfect retreat for getting away from it all. Inside you will find quality furnishings and linens. With its central island location, you're never too far from any of the Island's villages, Acadia National Park, hiking on Beech Mountain, or picking up fresh produce at Beech Hill Farm.

In the summers, hike and bike the trails and mountains in Acadia National Park right from your door, walk down to the sandy beach of Seal Harbor, explore Bar Harbor and Southwest by boat or kayak. In the winters, cozy up by the fireplace, and enjoy the miles of cross country trails in the park. Bar Harbor stays open year round and the island is quiet and peaceful.

Notes:
Enjoy exclusive use of our canoe and two kayaks included with stay. We have a few life jackets, but if you need specific sizes best to bring your own life jackets if necessary.
The Hot Tub stays open all year.
Please do not ask to check in early. We need all the time to make the home perfect for your stay!

LAYOUT:
Main Level: A walkway from the driveway leads you to a large screened in porch with ping pong table. From there, enter the house into a great room with a wall of windows and doors facing the lake. Coupled with the warm wood on the floors and ceiling, this creates a very bright and inviting space. The living room with comfortable seating and a large wall-mounted television is open to a dining area with a table that accommodates eight, and a kitchen with an island that has two stools. Beyond the kitchen is a full bathroom with shower and a stacking washer/dryer. Next you will find a bedroom with two sets of bunk beds (1 with a trundle).
Upper Level: Stairs at the front entry lead to a bedroom with queen bed and a ½ bath. The bedroom has a window overlooking the Living Room, which has a shade for privacy. A large window and skylight provide plenty of light. Should you need it, there is an AC unit in this room.
Outside: Doors between the living area and dining area lead to a large deck with comfortable furniture and a hot tub. At the base of the deck is a foot wash and you will find an outdoor shower on the side of the house. Take the short path down to the dock and enjoy the water!

We absolutely loved this home! My husband, my two girls and I loved our stay here. It was so peaceful and private. My girls (9,11) enjoyed kayaking and jumping off the dock over and over. The host really thought of everything. The house was well stocked and we loved the cute extra touches like the embroidered “camp” bath towels. The location was perfect! We spent one full day in Acadia and it was an easy drive into the park early for sunrise. We spent another day exploring the Southwest Harbor, which was such an adorable town. We loved the used book sale we came across and Vacationland Coffee shop. Get the blueberry biscuits!

I'm so glad you loved everything. We try to go above and beyond by providing all the lake toys people enjoy using as part of the home rental so that you don't have to deal with the hassle of renting kayaks!

Property was just as described and the location was perfectly located on beautiful Long Pond with beautiful views and was a short drive to all attractions. The house was very clean and had all of the amenities you'd need to enjoy your getaway. We enjoyed the hot tub, canoe and grill most! We even got to see a bald eagle fly over the pond and land in a close by tree while we were out in the canoe. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely wonderful stay at this cabin in Mt. Desert, which served as our home base for many Acadia adventures. Perfect location, views and vibes. Ended every day with a dip in the oversized hot tub overlooking the lake. If you’re in the area, I can’t imagine a more perfect location! And as a bonus, the hosts were beyond kind in returning multiple items we left behind. No hassle whatsoever.

My family has been coming to Mount Desert Island for 4 generations. We love everything there is to do here- hiking, biking, carriage trails, boating, canoeing. The ocean, lakes and mountains are so beautiful!

Why they chose this property

We love these cottages because they are so quiet and peaceful. We come here to enjoy our family and the lake, often spending nights sitting on the deck and listening to the loons.

What makes this property unique

This cottage has it's own private dock and direct lakefront access. It also has a hot tub which is unusual on MDI!
