Take in the peaceful ocean harbor view while drinking your morning coffee on our wraparound porch - (or on the porch upstairs off of the master bedroom - or down on the point in the Adirondack chairs....). Watch lobstermen pull their traps right in front of the house. Kayak around the bay - watch for seals, herons and bald eagles - bask in the sundown on the beach on a lovely granite ledge - swim in ocean water warmed after running in on an afternoon high tide... - hike nearby mountains, bike on nearby biking trails, enjoy the natural treasures and exciting bold coast on Schoodic point, or take a trip to Bar Harbor to gift shop and/or to explore more of Acadia National Park - all within short driving distance.
Retreat to the wonderfully cozy interior. White pine wooden floors throughout, a custom-built kitchen, dining space(s) for large gatherings, 2 wooden stoves for cozy evenings, water views from the kitchen, dining room and living room ensure a memorable vacation. The upstairs master bedroom opens to private balcony overlooking the beach and harbor.
Should it start to rain one day, don't despair, just curl up with a book in front of one of the 2 wooden stoves or play a round of cribbage on our custom-made cribbage board coffee table while watching spectacular cloud formations chase across the bay. Maybe it's a good day to take that trip to Mt. Desert Island? And remember - in New England they say, "if you don't like the weather just wait a minute! " The sun will be out again later.
Our two story 5-bedroom cottage is a jewel for nature lovers, outdoor activity lovers, hikers, bikers and especially for families.
