Sunrise perfection
This is a small, rustic cabin that doesn’t disappoint in terms of location, beautiful views, and convenience. The sunrises off the deck are exquisite and the bed and pillows were totally on point. It is small but mighty in terms of charm and our host was very attentive to a minor issue that arose. I’ll go again and try to get the “big house” for a larger family adventure.

Serene and beautiful
The cabin has an amazing view- sunrise and sunset are magical. We also saw eagles which was very cool. The cabin is close to Acadia but removed from the hustle and bustle of bar harbor. The bedrooms are on the small side so hard to fit the crib for our baby but otherwise it had everything we needed for a great stay!

Peaceful but close to the action
We had a great stay. We watched the sunrise each morning, pleasantly surprised by eagles flying past the deck and cautiously passing deer drive in most evenings. The rustic cabin with modern conveniences offered solitude, yet close to Bar Harbor, Acadia, and Southwest Harbor. Hadly Point Beach around the corner is a hidden gem for sunsets and star gazing. Peter was a great host as well and a very responsive communicator.

Authentic experience
This cabin was so cute inside and perfectly located just north of Bar Harbor. The location on the water with access to a tidal flat provided amazing views. Our group had so much fun harvesting mussels right outside and cooking them ourselves. Clean and cozy interior. Only notes would be the skylights in each room do not have shades to shield you from waking up at 5am to the sunrise, and the driveway required 4 wheel drive on our truck to navigate the steepness and loose gravel

A beautiful and peaceful Maine vacation
My family and I stayed here early in June! We loved it! The chalet has everything you need. The owner responds quickly and is very thoughtful! He even leaves recipes and popover trays! The most memorable part of the trip is my kids collected mussels on the shore and steamed them! I will recommend this chalet!

Fall Adventure
This was a beautiful scenic retreat - cabin with a view you’ve never experienced! We enjoyed the feel of the outdoors without camping. It was all we needed for resting every night after a long day of Acadia National Park adventures. It was cold in October but there were small heaters in every room to keep us warm.

Cabin with a view!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Birch Cabin. We could watch the sunrise, eagles fly past seals in the bay and lobster fisherman check their traps every morning while drinking coffee from the deck or living room window. We had everything we needed and loved being a part of the Maine’s woods and cove experience. Peter is a fantastic host and communicator. The location is very close to Acadia National Park and the town of Bar Harbor. A really great authentic Maine experience!

Sorry to hear that you had trouble reaching our caretaker. He was under some pressure at the time and he apologizes. However, you had my personal email address, my mobile phone number, and also the VRBO app if all else fails and no attempts were made to reach me. There were no comments left for us in the chalet. If you have have comments, please send them to me directly using my email address. I am always looking for ways to improve the experience for future guests.

Perfect Getaway
The birch cottage was our ideal getaway…peaceful, cozy, and views that are absolutely breathtaking. The proximity to everything MDI has to offer can’t be beat. Rev Peter has provided a nice compilation of favorite restaurants, hikes, markets, etc that we referenced daily. We especially enjoyed the restaurants Havana and Ironboard, based on his recommendations. The cottage itself is well equipped, which made eating in easy and enjoyable. We booked the birch cottage so that we would have something pretty to look at while our toddler napped in the afternoons. The views at this property far exceeded our expectations. This is truly a gem of a property. We hope to visit again next year.

Relaxing family getaway!!
Loved Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Salsbury Cove/Birch Chalet was perfect, we had beautiful sunrises every morning. A nature lovers in delight, we were greeted by a deer on our way down the driveway. Saw all kinds of birds, seagulls, loons, woodpeckers and even a bald eagle. Had a hummingbird fly around us on the deck. Saw otters in the morning, loved the sound of the waves crashing and watching the tides change! Peter was a fantastic host, he had everything available that you could possibly want. The area was very peaceful, chalet was very cozy. Location was easy to get around the whole island, lots of great restaurants if you didn't want to cook. Would definitely come back. We would highly recommend this place.

Never wanted to leave!
Peter's beautiful cabin was the perfect launching point for us for visiting Acadia and the surrounding area. The view out the living room/kitchen and on the deck is simply amazing. The sunrises were spectacular and the sound of waterfowl was everywhere all the time. I saw a bald eagle fly right by the house. We also saw harbor porpoises, seals, kingfishers, herons, and other waterfowl we don't even know out on the water.
The location is very very good. You are not far from Bar Harbor, Acadia, and Southwest Harbor at all. We hiked all over Acadia and enjoyed the scenery. We also enjoyed the local stuff nearby including Mainely Meat, Udder Heaven (incredible ice cream), and putt-putt.
Peter was a great host as well. He was very responsive and even helped me recover an important item that I left behind!!!
Hope to be back one day!!

The cabin was perfect. The caretaker and the owner were open for communication even months prior to our stay. Every question I had was answered, every amenity I needed was available. 15 min from BH and Acadia, stunning views in the morning, noon and night, five minutes from a lobster pound and ten minutes from the airport….This cabin is a hidden gem and I’m hesitant to hype it up so much, because I want it to be available when I need it again! Haha! The cabin was so well taken care of and the kitchen had everything I could need…I’d live here if I could. The cabin made the vacation, trust me. I’d choose Salsbury Cove’s Birch Chalet over any hotel, any bed and breakfast, any time, any day. 10/10, I’m already looking into when I can come back. And that complimentary bottle of blueberry jam?! I already ordered a case of it from Maine. I’m hooked. Thanks Peter!!!

Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Peter Miano
I first came to Maine and Mt. Desert Island as an 18 year old bound for a year long volunteer assignment at Our School in Robbinston, about 100 miles east of MDI. That is when I fell in love with the land and seascapes of Maine, its natural beauty, its powerful seasons (if you haven't discovered Maine in Winter, maybe now is the time), and its rich heritage. Over the years, I returned often to Acadia and Downeast for family vacations.
purchased this Chalet in 2020
Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade
After a long, tedious search for a place to buy and enjoy and after several frustrations, I found Shore Haven, although it wasn't called that at the time. It was love a first sight. Its unsurpassed natural setting and extraordinary access to all the amenities of MDI, not to mention all of Downeast and the interior as well, were strong attractions for me. In addition, Shore Haven's house (Overlook) and two chalets (Spruce and Birch) offered the opportunity of welcoming others to enjoy MCI the same way that I do with my family and friends. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. I hope the Maine coast enchants you the way is does me. Relax, have fun, soak up the atmosphere. Welcome to Shore Haven.
