Lake Front Cottage Facing Acadia National Park on the "Quiet Side" of Mt. Desert

Located in Seal Cove on the 'quiet side' of Mount Desert Island, this cottage at Hodgdon Pond Farm offers proximity to all the other attractions of the island and Acadia National Park. The 3 double bedroom/ 2 bath cottage with sleeping loft shares 7.4 acres and 800 plus or minus feet of shore front on Hodgdon Pond with Cottage 2, which is about 2/3rds of a football field away. (Please see 924253VB). The opposite shore of the lake is owned and protected by the National Park. Wildlife is abundant and guests frequently see osprey, Bald eagles, kingfisher and many other birds as well as deer, beaver, muskrat, and sometimes otter and moose.

The cottage has its own dock, canoe, two kayaks, two Stand-up Paddle Boards, and a rowboat. Swimming is best from the rocks on the opposite shore, and from a swim float in the lake. There is a charcoal grill, picnic table and outdoor furniture as well as a hammock overlooking the lake, Satellite TV and Internet. We now keep a section of the lower field mowed, and there is a storage box containing outdoor games for renters to enjoy. Note this is shared with people in Cottage 2, and there are posted house rules for using the games. PLEASE CHECK WITH ME ABOUT OUR CANCELLATION POLICY because it is very different from the one indicated by VRBO.


There are also two small ponds, a sitting area, swing set and sandbox on the property that are shared with people in Cottage 2.

Wherever possible, we use 'Green' cleaning products, provide supplies made from recycled paper, LED bulbs, and implement other ways to reduce our impact on the environment. The Maine Department of Environmental Protection has certified Hodgdon Pond Farm is an 'Environmental Leader' as designated by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection.

Though there are beds for 7 people, we limit occupancy to 6 people, but occasionally permit a 7th person for an additional charge of $250.

Wonderful Acadia

Perfect place to stay for a relaxing getaway. Saw wildlife and spent time canoeing on a quiet sleepy pond or close enough to go to Bar Harbor or into the glorious Acadia for adventures.

Peaceful Oasis on the Quiet Side

We had an amazing week here, with everything we needed for our family of 7. The house was packed with toys, puzzles, books, and activities for the whole family; the kitchen and bathrooms were well-stocked and more than adequate for us. Beds were comfy and just what we needed. The property is beautiful and quiet, and we enjoyed all the boats and the access to the beautiful pond. We were there just after Labor Day and had the whole pond to ourselves and another family or two. Highly recommended if you want to be on MDI without the crowds and chaos!

Relaxing paradise

The HPF cottage was perfect for our stay. The whole place was very clean and we enjoyed the at-home feel of it. It was a short drive to Acadia and the Park Loop Road. We enjoyed Thurstons Lobster Pound for dinner, which was about a 15 minute drive from the cottage. Our 2 year old appreciated the toys Barbara had at the house (he loved the pull along froggy), and we loved that she had a pack & play and booster seat for him there. The weather didn't cooperate for us to swim but we enjoyed the canoe on the property and loved that there were several small watercraft options to choose from. We loved our peaceful time at HPF and would absolutely return!

Beautiful and quiet

Great location with easy access anywhere on the island. Excellent fishing in the pond, caught lots of perch and pickerel and bass. Appreciated all the kids books and toys. House got warm during the day but it was unusually hot weather. Didn’t like having to sign a separate lease independent from VRBO agreement. Kids loved the playground. Saw lots of wildlife. Great spot for families!

Cozy cabin by the pond

The house was even lovelier than pictures suggested. Well appointed and immaculate. Took advantage of the canoe, kayak, and SUP, and spent many hours reading by the pond. Bald eagle was a frequent pond visitor. Idyllic getaway for the whole family.

location, location, location!

What an amazing place! If you are looking for a stay in a super-quiet, serene spot, then this is it. The cottage is very nice and extremely thoughtfully/well-equipped. There are 3 bedrooms, 1K and 4 twins (1 single in loft), but the twins can be put together to make a King if needed. Linens are lovely, natural cotton. We cooked every dinner there, including BBQ (charcoal provided, groceries 15min away). The location is fantastic, right on an idyllic large pond, with plenty of (non-motorized) water toys. There are some mosquitoes, as there are everywhere in ME, but very tolerable for the super-bug-attracting me! It was record-breaking hot one day, but there were fans in every room, so we were very comfortable (thank you!!). We used the puzzle table the whole time for puzzles and cards. We were able to get my 85-year old mom out into a canoe quite easily (lifejackets provided). We lay out on the dock one night gazing at the milky way, satellites and even a large shooting star. The sky is incredible if you catch a clear night before moonrise. We had a National Geographic moment with the loons as we sat quietly, and they drifted closer and closer to us, calling and then doing a courtship dance. Awesome place, I can't wait to go back!

Wonderful place to stay! The cottage had everything we needed and Acadia National Park was amazing!

We had a lovely week at Hodgdon Pond Farm - we would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience a quiet, peaceful setting and visit Acadia National Park. The cottage was perfect - it had everything we needed and provided a quiet retreat. We loved hiking in Acadia and exploring Mount Desert Island. Highly recommend!

Peaceful, relaxing cottage for the perfect getaway

If you're looking for a restful place away from the hustle and bustle, this cottage is perfect. Very clean, well equipped with everything you could need, and situated on a delightfully peaceful pond, yet only a 20 min drive to anywhere on the island. We were able to enjoy sights of the Milky Way on a clear night, an enormous buck relaxing in the field near the cottage, and the amazing warmth of the wood burning stove on the cold nights. Barbara called us to make sure everything was as anticipated, and even offered some advice for a rainy day. Our family really enjoyed this place for our much needed stress-relieving getaway from everyday life, and we look forward to returning in the (hopefully near) future.

On Golden (Hodgdon) Pond

My husband and I stayed a week at HPF and could not have picked a better rental for our first visit to Maine and Mt. Desert Island. Cottage 1 is at the end of the lane--very quiet and private. The cottage is very well equipped with many of the little extras that make a stay comfortable. The master bedroom bed is very comfortable. With the window open at night we heard the loons early in the a.m.! We especially enjoyed the wood stove a few cool evenings. My husband liked fishing the pond from the canoe and I liked the hammock. Owner is prompt and easy to contact. This location is easy drive to Acadia and area sights. When not relaxing at the cottage we: ate at Thurstons and Bealls, had lunch and a walk at Jordon Pond House, went on a nature cruise out of Bass Harbor, took the carriage road bridge tour, hiked with picnic lunch the ocean path trail in Acadia. So our Golden Pond experience definitely lived up to our expectations.

Extraordinary Place

We have vacationed on MDI about 15 times over the last 30+ years. Hodgdon Pond Farm - Cottage 1 is by far the finest lodging we've had on the Island. Gorgeous natural beauty and tranquility are there in magnificent quantity. The cottage is very attractive, well organized and comfortable. You'll be very glad you chose this place.

A Lifetime of Memories

The morning sun shines gently on the pond as I wake from the comfort of a peaceful nights sleep. The children slumber while I brew coffee in the fully equipped kitchen. Looking out the kitchen window I watch a small chipmunk gather his own breakfast on the dirt road that leads to this quaint cottage. Carrying my Maine coffee cup I walk down to the pond and sit on the dock to greet the day. A bald eagle joins me on his graceful flight over the water as he searches for his own breakfast. The water is like glass and it mirrors the blue sky and a few white puffy clouds that glide out towards the salty ocean just beyond the trees. I drain the last of my New England coffee from my cup and walk back towards the cottage. I find my husband in the living room reading one of the local area books he found on the shelf. "Morning walk?" I ask. He agrees and we head out the door to the dirt road. We stop by the tiny pond behind the house and question what type of animals visit this fairy like location to get a drink. As we walk a little further down the lane we soon discover it was two large bucks grazing in the field of wildflowers. They are not frightened of us on our stroll and just eye us curiously as we continue on our way. We stop at the small family cemetery and read the incredibly old stones. "What history in this beautiful place" we say. We turn and walk back the 1/8 mile to the cottage listening to the sounds of nature all around us. The smell of sugar is in the air as we open the door and find the four teenagers we have brought with us diving into the donuts I had left on the counter. Plans for the day are discussed over the orange juice and chocolate covered treats. A drive into Bar Harbor is requested to walk on the 'land bridge' at low tide and the girls want to do a little souvenir shopping. The boys plan to skip rocks into the ocean to avoid the stores and my husband agrees to go with all of us as he wants to stop outside of town and grab some fresh lobsters for our dinner- of course our kitchen has a lobster pot! What great Maine cottage would not? Upon our return the teenagers head out onto the pond in kayaks and rowboats to swim off the anchored swim platform. My husband starts a fire in the BBQ to grill some steaks while I prepare to steam the lobster. (We learned this technique from the lobster woman we purchased them from). After dinner the boys head out for some evening fishing while the girls and I work on a puzzle in the cozy living room.

Amazing house on Mount Desert Island

This is a really special house! The house is well situated at the southern end of Hodgedon Pond, so both the house and dock feel very private. It's about 20 - 25 minutes to Bar Harbour, Northeast Harbour and even closer to Southwest Harbour, so the location is excellent. The house itself is clean and well laid out. There were several boats available for use, so we had a great time kayaking, canoeing and paddle-boarding on the pond. The pond is small enough that there aren't any motor boats, but large enough to explore and swim. We saw an otter, several beaver, a muskrat, a garter snake, and a number of birds and frogs. The "upper" pond is just a fabulous place to hang out and enjoy the scenery or watch for wildlife. We spent a lot of time in the comfortable chairs available there. I highly recommend this house if you're looking for a quiet, outdoorsy place from which to explore Mount Desert Island.

I have been coming to MDI for 20 years now, and this is, hands down, the finest property I have ever rented. The location could not be more pristine. If you seek true tranquility and an escape from the noise of everyday life, this is the place for you. I never wanted to leave.

Wouldn't Stay Anywhere Else

We always look for privacy and quiet when we book vacation rentals, and this one certainly fits the bill. Add charming and beautiful, with unobstructed views of a private lake and the woods of Acadia, and we found the perfect place. An easy and scenery-filled ride to Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor and Northeast Harbor and to all sections of Acadia, we enjoyed every minute of our week long stay. The owner was helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. Book it now.

Excellent Private Setting on the Quietside of Mt. Desert Island.

My family of four (including 2 almost 8 year-old boys) loved this home away from home. Very well maintained cottage with everything you need. Great selection of boats on the private dock, and truly a quiet setting with lots of privacy. Often we were the only ones on the pond, with about 10 homes lining one side of the pond. The other side is Acadia park land (no development). You look out to pure nature from the property, and have a great view even from inside the cottage. Our kids delighted in learning how to kayak on easy water, and we loved swimming off the float. We prefer the Quietside of MDI. Less traffic, even during this busy time of year, and you get to feel like a local after a few days of going into Southwest Harbor which is just 20 minutes away. Very short drive to some of the sights and great hikes. We will likely come back again, and have been spoiled by everything this cottage offers. Thank you!!

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Barbara Lawrence

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
I'm a summer kid who fell in love with Mount Desert Island and lived there year-round for 15 years. After many years and many travels, I still think of it as home. My first novel and sixth book, 'Islands of Time,' is set on Mount Desert Island. Linda Greenlaw, NYT best-selling author said, 'I really like it. It's a love-song to the people and landscape of Maine.' The sequel "The Other Island: Ben's Story" was published in 2017, and I'm proud that Greenlaw and other fine authors have liked it as well.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

I was attracted to this property, formerly a hunting and fishing camp, because the ad boasted abundant wildlife. When I first saw Hodgdon Pond Farm, I realized proximity to Acadia National Park gave it enduring protection and privacy, and yet it was convenient to everything else on the island.

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

I love reading in the hammock beside the lake, and listening to the sounds of the birds and animals - the trill of tree frogs, keening of loons, and the querulous calls of osprey that always sound as if they are trying to get children off to school. Sometimes I hear a beaver slap the water with its tail, and sometimes ravens loudly scolding an eagle. The bullfrogs, Kingfisher, and warblers add to this ever changing, ever fascinating serenade. I also love sitting in one of the Adirondack chairs near the Little Ponds. The last time I was there I watched a mother duck and four very small duckings paddling to the bridge with the beaver dam. When they got very close a mink lunged out from under the bridge - but missed them all. Another time I was weeding the garden between the ponds when an otter stood up about ten feet from me, clutching a frog in its paws, which it then crunched as it rested in the culvert. These experiences carry me through a long winter!
