About this property

Pine scented & ocean kissed!

Entering our 5th year of hosting rentals! Oceanfront 1 floor living on 13+ acres with open concept kitchen/dining/living space on the Narraguagus Bay. Wake to the sunrise and lobster boats heading out to haul their traps, fall asleep to the calming sound of the tide rolling in or out. Unplug and enjoy the expansive view of the bay and open ocean. Explore the 493’ of bold coast frontage. Quiet and peaceful yet less than 5 miles to town where you will find amenities such as dining, grocery, gas, and gift shops.

Come visit Maine and find out why it’s called “Vacationland” and “The Way Life Should Be”.

Milbridge is a sweet coastal town well situated for many adventures. Visit the eastern-most spot in the US and the picturesque West Quoddy Lighthouse in Lubec. Or head to the Schoodic region of Acadia National Park and avoid the crowds that flock to the larger portion of the park on Mount Desert Island. Take a day trip to Campobello Island (bring your passport) and take a step back in history to the way President FDR spent his summers. There are many local artisans and galleries to visit. Take a private lobster boat tour with Captain Robertson right here in town and check out the puffins at Petit Manan Lighthouse! If you enjoy being physically active there are countless hiking trails and an extensive biking trail called The Downeast Sunrise Trail. There are plenty of places to kayak as well. You’ll run out of time for everything on your list because you won’t want to leave the peacefulness of homebase. No matter if you choose a fast or slow paced vacation, this is the perfect spot for you!

There are wonderful dining options right in Milbridge as well as a number of favorites within a short drive. Or cook at home in the well stocked kitchen and enjoy your dinner outside on the deck. You can pick up your fresh-off-the-boat lobster and other sea creatures just 2.5 miles down the road at Chipman’s Wharf. Grab a bottle of local blueberry wine or coastal white to go with that meal at nearby Barlett Winery.

Milbridge features a local summer concert series in town on Friday nights and don’t miss Incredible Edible Milbridge and the free organic community gardens. This little town has some big spirit!

*New in 2022, a Ring doorbell is installed which shows ONLY the driveway/approach to front door. It does not show the back deck or anything inside the home. Primarily installed for off season security.

Stupendous views

Whether inside, on the deck, or on the rocky shore, this property offers views galore. We also enjoyed hiking at Petit Manan, along the Bold Coast and Campobello Island, plus a gorgeous sunset cruise aboard the Polaris Jack, which sails from South Addison. The house is a great location for outdoor activities, and having Shipman's Wharf nearby for seafood was a nice bonus.

Perfect piece of heaven

Pine scented and ocean kissed is the best rental we have ever stayed in!! It was everything plus more! Amanda and Mark have thought of everything you could ever need or want. The house is impeccable, fully stocked, and has gorgeous views, a fun beach with exciting tidal pools, an awesome fire pit, and a great quiet location. Amanda provided wonderful recommendations for hikes, restaurants and a boat tour. We loved Chipman's Wharf, the Knotty Lobster, and breakfast at the Milbridge House Restaurant all in Milbridge. We had the most amazing 5 hour private boat tour with Captain Jamie from Roberterson's Sea Adventures filled with over 100 seals, peregrin falcons, 3 lighthouses, and many other birds. Acadia was phenomenal, especially Raven's Nest, Otters Point, and Cadillac Mt. We can't thank Amanda and Mark enough for sharing their wonderful home and providing such great advice on things to do. We will definitely be back!

Best rental ever!

Amanda and her family have created an absolute haven on the ocean! We have rented several times on VRBO and have never seen a home so thoughtfully equipped for vacationers. The kitchen has so many tools and pans for cooking and baking, and the sturdy folding chairs for campfire times were really appreciated. The location is stunning and the house is beautifully appointed. We can't wait to go back!

Best Vacation!

We've stayed in many rental homes and this is by far our favorite! The location in the woods, yet on the coast is perfection. We love being away from the "hubub". The home is clean and comfortable and is equipped with everything you can possibly need. We hiked the woods, fished off the rocks, enjoyed a lobster tour, drove Schoodic Point, went foraged for mushrooms and of course enjoyed all the seafood Maine is famous for! Our host Amanda was a pleasure to work with. I hope one day to have the opportunity to return to this lovely home.

Tranquility Base

This property is nothing short of spectacular. This is our second stay in two years and we’ll be coming back again in 2025. The coast of Maine is such a joy to visit, with all of the cozy, local family owned restaurants, all of the local shopping, and all of the local characters. This property is exceptional. The location of the property, the cleanliness of the property and all of the significant amenities make this the most peaceful and amazing stay in any VRBO we’ve been at. My 99-year-old mother loves this property. It was her second stay. Amanda‘s response to any concern is immediate and she always resolves the issue with professionalism and care. I would recommend this property to anyone who enjoys privacy, sitting on a deck overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, and hearing the waves crash off the rocks. This truly is a slice of heaven.

Perfection!

We loved our stay here so much last year that we decided to return. The deck with its view is so peaceful. It’s only enhanced by the sound of the water. Having your own piece of the rocky coast with its tide pools is such a treat. The house itself looks like it should be on an HGTV show. It’s so tastefully decorated and welcoming. Everything you need is provided -from cookware, to games, spices and even a fondue pot. The hosts are incredible and it’s evident they enjoy sharing their home and making sure their guests have an incredible experience. If you are looking to visit Maine- you’ll definitely want to make this your home base.

Beautiful Maine

The house was as pictured with all the amenities supplied. The area was quaint and rural, off the beaten path with sights and events an hour or so away. Downtown Milbridge had whatever we needed. The views from the house and deck were a postcard picture. The house was clean and comfortable. The host responded quickly to any question. We would recommend a stay at this property.

The Way Life Should Be

I've been looking for the perfect Maine vacation home. The ragged coast line, on the ocean, etc. This year, i found it. Close enough to Schoodic and Acadia, yet far away from the noise of tourists. The house is stunningly designed to take advantage of the beautiful coast. There was nothing missing, right down to the Welcome sign in the master bedroom. Thank you for a beautiful week in the place that truly rejuvenates the soul.

We loved our stay. It has all the conveniences of ac, laundry, etc with a beautiful view. The kids enjoy so much time exploring the rocky coast. While I did do a quick swim (I’m a strong swimmer) I would not recommend it if are looking to spend a lot of time swimming. The rocky coast, plus the waves make entry and exit quite a feat. Overall, and beautiful and joyful experience.

One of a kind!!

Amanda has been the easiest most organized person to work with! The home was breath taking and so warm and welcoming! Everything you needed was included all the way down to the pot and directions needed to steam the lobsters! Everything was clean and well organized! Every place we visited was about an hour from the house. Loved being secluded and private! Yet still close to a small town with all the essentails! The tide pools were a huge hit for our kids! And the view of our own little Acadia was perfect! Since posting pics on Facebook of our vacation I have had 3 friends asking for the VRBO listing! Thanks again to Amanda and her family for sharing their home with us!

Beautiful House, Beautiful Location, Wonderful Host!

My family agreed this was going to be a hard stay to beat. The house was spotless and the décor was amazing. The whole house gave you the coastal feeling. We loved exploring the coast and the tidal pools during low tide. We also loved utilizing the fire ring several nights! The Host was excellent in communicating before, during, and after the stay. She left a binder full of wonderful suggestions on places to go and places to eat! The location was perfect for us. We loved Milbridge. It was close enough to make day trips to everywhere we wanted, but away from the hustle and bustle. If you are thinking of booking, I would say definitely go for it and you won’t be disappointed! We would gladly go back!

Beautiful home

This is the nicest home we have rented. The owners have thought of every detail. From skewers for roasting marshmallows to plastic wine glasses for outside, it’s all there! I am picky about cleanliness and this house was perfect. We enjoyed spending time at the rocky shoreline directly in front of the house. We made some day trips to Acadia, Quoddy State Park, and Pigeon Hill as well. The kids loved the bedrooms and the small touches that were all throughout the house. Everything is nice and high quality, the furniture, towels, etc. There was a comprehensive guest folder with suggested activities and great tips in the guest book as well. My daughter prefers a more “action packed” trip so the 70 minute trip to Bar Harbor helped with that. If you want a quiet, relaxing trip in downeast Maine, this is the spot!

An outstanding experience from start to finish. The homeowner (Amanda) is EXCEPTIONAL in communicating details regarding ANY aspect of the trip, prior to, during and even after the stay. Her enthusiasm and positive can-do attitude are phenomenal. She will get our business repeatedly in the future. The pics don't do the home and property justice. You've simply got to stay there to soak in all of the amazing sights, sounds and smells of this part of Maine. Simply an amazing experience.

Just Amazing!

What an amazing place! From the charming decor to the beautiful views from the deck, this home created such a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere. We felt “at home” and were able to both rest and relax. There were many tide pool treasures to be found during low tide. I’ve been searching for starfish the past three trips to Maine- and was so excited to find one on the property on only our second day. At high tide we enjoyed the beautiful view from the rocks. At night, we sat on the deck and were awed by the night sky completely FULL of stars. We were able to see Jupiter and the Milky Way just with the naked eye (although there was a nice telescope to use). Looking at that sky with the sound of the waves in the background is a memory I will not soon forget. The house itself is spectacular. As people have mentioned in previous reviews- they have provided everything you could need and the furniture is super comfy. We had many great day trips- but inevitably, we just wanted to go back and enjoy the house each day. Thank you Mark and Amanda for sharing your home with us. We definitely left (albeit a bit sad) feeling incredibly refreshed.

Fantastic!

WOW! This place was absolutely the nicest place we've ever stayed! It was spotless, neat and beautiful! Amanda(I'm assuming) has the cutest nautical decor. They had everything you could possibly need in the house. The kitchen is huge! We enjoyed cooking several meals throughout the week. It's very close to the grocery store, Bayside Shop and Save. The deck is super nice! We spent many mornings and several evenings there just looking out and listening to the ocean. The picnic table is huge and we used it a lot. The grill is very nice. We four senior citizens were very satisfied! The fire pit was a little difficult for me to get to, but it was so much fun to roast marshmallows and make s-mores. I wasn't able to get down to the beach because I was healing a sprained foot. The other 3 in my group went down almost daily, if not twice a day, to look for sea glass. We traveled to other cities every day to do different things. It takes almost an hour to get to most places, but it's worth it! Acadia National Park is gorgeous. Cadillac Mountain is a must see. My husband and I had never been to Maine, but our friends had and wanted to go back. Other than the sulfur water that smells and tastes really bad to us, this is the perfect house. Amanda, made our vacation one of the best we have ever been on. We are two couples who have known each other for over 40 years. We are all retired now and enjoy traveling together. If you ever travel to Maine and plan on staying in his area you need to rent Pine Scented and Ocean Kissed from Amanda and Mark.

Best. Vacation. Ever.

First and foremost… I don’t believe I’ve ever had a VRBO exceed my expectations- until now. Amanda’s home (and Amanda herself) were the ultimate in kindness and hospitality…my family and I felt welcomed and comfortable from the very start- truly home away from home. The home was spotless, beautiful, stocked with every little thing one could possibly need (from beach chairs to paper cups to bleach to bug spray to extra coffee pods, etc). The beds and furniture were so cozy and comfortable and the air conditioners did a wonderful job of cooling the place off during what might have been the hottest week of the summer. The view from the porch (and from the bedroom windows) was just stunning, and falling asleep and waking up to the sound of waves on rocks is now permanently in my heart. I actually kind of think we may all be ruined for any future vacations anywhere else- thanks a lot Amanda! 😘. We packed so much into our trip but never felt rushed or crazed- we took a puffin cruise, toured Acadia, hiked a bit, swam in the beautifully refreshing ocean, ate blueberry ice cream and buttery lobster, caught wild mussels for dinner, hunted for tide pool treasures, explored Bar Harbor, and sat and read and relaxed. The house is in a perfect spot for enjoying the ocean- during high tide you can swim (bring water shoes!) and during low tide you can explore. Amanda took the time to write to recommend some wonderful spots to try, and they were perfect. After a couple of crazy pandemic years (I teach elementary school), and with kiddos growing up and away with breathtaking speed (we have 12 year old twins and a 15 yo), this week was exactly what I needed to reconnect and recharge. My heart is full and so very grateful. Thank you, Amanda. 💓

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Hedrick

Host profile image
Our Maine addiction began about 18 years ago on a trip to Bar Harbor. We took our time, stopping in coastal towns along the way. We honestly didn't even know about Acadia National Park on that first trip. So, we soon realized more trips were in order! Every summer we returned to find a new adventure. We rented on a different spot of Mount Desert Island everytime to gain insight on all the different flavors. Eventually, we started branching further up the coast to find more quiet, looking for a spot to lay down some roots for the future and build a family retreat.

Why they chose this property

We were thrilled to find our piece of heaven in Milbridge. Everything we truly need is within about a 5 mile drive, yet, our homes location is away from any business of daily life.
