Ideal Maine retreat

This gem is tucked away from the crowds, but close enough to see all of Acadia that you could want. Quiet, restful, clean. Thank you for sharing this little slice of Maine waterfront paradise!

Perfect Retreat and Homebase

Our trip was wonderful and we really enjoyed this cabin! The host was super communicative and the space was everything we needed. It was close enough to Acadia and very close to several restaurants. It also had a huge yard and beautiful water view, with access to a fire pit and many other amenities. Would definitely stay there again!

Maine Getaway

It was a perfect spot for my wife and I. The view overlooking the spacious backyard and the water was quite beautiful from the deck. Very well furnished, all we had to do was supply the groceries and relax. The cabin felt quite secluded even though we were minutes away from many attractions and restaurants. Very satisfied!!!

Michiganders vacation in Maine

The Merchant’s Cabin was a perfect home for our family of four and dog while we vacationed for the week. The location was great as it allowed us to hop over to Tidal Falls and Schoodic one day and Bar Harbor the next. We grilled with the charcoal and gas grill and used the provided pots for a lobster boil. We enjoyed watching the tide go in and out each day. If we’re ever back in Maine, we would definitely stay here again!

Cozy Cabin

Beautiful log cabin, loved the antique decor. Everything we needed, great view, comfy beds. For dog walking, go directly across the highway, up the hill less than a quarter mile. There is a little inlet on the left with a park sign. Great walk in the woods, so glad we found that. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Merchants Cabin Visit

Cabin was very clean and comfortable. We showed up after a hurricane and there was no power. The host showed up with lanters , flashlights and extra wood for the fireplace. Power was back on the next morning. It was a wonderful comfortable stay.

Amazing

Wife and I, our two dogs had an amazing relaxing beautiful time. Location is perfect quiet and private. Short distance to great local hikes and fantastic local shopping. Short drive to Acadia national park. Kayaking in Egypt bay was beautiful. All around highly recommended vacation spot. Couldn’t ask for more of a relaxing retreat from our busy lives. Everything from Grilling and chilling on the deck to exploring nature enjoying the beauty of coastal Maine.

Almost perfect

We will tell you the pictures didn’t do the place justice. We enjoyed it so much. If there is anything that was a negative it would be the road noise was noticeable at times and no place to hang anything except a couple hooks on the door not one closet

Perfect log cabin near Acadia and Schoodic

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful log cabin! The location was perfect, with easy access to both Acadia National Park and Schoodic Peninsula. We rented bikes through Schoodic and loved exploring the area. The cabin is equipped with everything you could need—from canoes and kayaks to a cozy fire pit for relaxing evenings. The beds were incredibly comfortable. There were plenty of towels, and having a washer and dryer on hand was a huge bonus. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and well-appointed getaway with kids! Feel free to make any changes if needed!

Waterfront cabin

The cabin was wonderful. We came to visit Acadia National Park. The cabin is about 40 minutes away from the park. The back porch looks right on the water. You can watch the tides come in and out. Very quiet. Grocery store within minutes and lobster places everywhere. Loved every minute.

Lovely little cabin in a great location and beautiful view of an inlet. Was hoping to kayak but we had cool and rainy weather. We did however get to watch the tide come in and go out. Highly recommend this place and would love to come back again some day

Waterfront Cabin retreat near Acadia National Park

This is a lovely appointed waterfront cabin which is private yet a close drive to Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park. We stayed for a week and it was great having our dog there. We loved watching the tides go in and out. Everything you need is on site. The owners really thought of everything! We even got to make our very own pizza in the brick oven. Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby in Ellsworth too. The restaurant across from the property called Chippers had the best chowder ever!
