    Idle Hour - Dramatic Direct Oceanfront 2 bed 2 bath

    Dramatic Oceanfront Cottage with Stunning Views of Acadia National Park!

    2 Bedroom, 2 Full Baths sleeps 4 - maximum 6 (new queen sofa bed or hi-rise inflatable air mattress for overflow guests)

    Shift into idle in this lovely cottage by the sea. Sleep to the rhythmic sounds of gentle waves lapping on your shore. Prolific wildlife abounds; eagles, loon, osprey and an occasional seal. Sunrises here are some of the most magnificent on planet earth! Her reflection off the sea might even dance across your ceilings if you are an early enough riser and have a desire to connect with the beauty that surrounds you here.

    The ocean and all her treasures are right at your footstep with a stunning porch that hangs over the sea and access to some of the finest lobster Maine has to offer just a few doors down at a quint New England, locally-owned, lobster shack. Exceptional panoramic, 180-degree views of Acadia National Park. Conveniently located only 15 minutes from two quintessential New England villages; Blue Hill and Ellsworth for restaurants and shopping. Endless outdoor adventures are to be found in this part of Downeast Maine. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are a 50 minute drive. Nearby hiking, boating, horse-back riding, bike riding, mountain climbing, painting, whale watching, fishing, sailing, kayak rentals and more are all available.

    FYI if you are coming with small children; this special property is literally right on the ocean. Porch overhangs the water and stairs down to the sea, neither are child proofed. Please take care. That said, the owner's children enjoyed the home since they were wee. Epic Atlantic, typically calm waters for little ones. Also note no play yard. 

    This is a non-smoking, no pet vacation rental property.

    Our Acadia Trip
    We had a great family trip over school vacation. We were about 35/40 minutes to Acadia and we went and adventured there each day. The view from this property is unmatched. It’s quiet, peaceful, and exactly what our family needed!

    Amazing Views and Sunrises
    Clean as a whistle and cozy, this home has amazing views with ten windows facing the water. We loved seeing the lobster boats come and go and although we didn't see seals at this time of year, there were loons and two bald eagles. We just loved it here and hope to return. Thank you!
