Beautiful Views!!!

Ellsworth Maine is one of our stops on our 2 Week Rd. trip through New England… We chose to spend an extra day in Maine, since the view views were so beautiful…. We absolutely loved this house…. We actually enjoyed the house so much. We went to the grocery store and cooked our first meal in two weeks there…. The holiday house was easy to find and plenty of places to explore... We have even been talking about going back in the summertime to be able to enjoy the water too and this is the perfect place to stay…

This is a wonderful place to stay. 30-40 minutes from Acadia NP but so far away from the Bar Harbor’s hustle and bustle. The cottage is clean and well equipped with cares. The only slight downside is the dining option in Ellsworth is not very exciting but Bar Harbor is close enough as well as all the roadside lobster pound/shack on Rt 3! Will definitely stay here again when we are visiting Acadia NP.

Sleeping area upstairs needs some furniture rearranging. The person sleeping on the wall and sloped ceiling can hit there head in the evening getting up. Toilet area can also be an issue! Very nice cabin to stay in. May have an issue with ants found a number of dead ones.

Our family really enjoyed this cabin in the woods. It is well equipped with everything you need and even has a nice little dock on the lake. We were hoping to get out on the lake with our paddle boards but weather didn’t permit. It looked like there was a canoe available for quests, but we didn’t use it. The cabin is very close to town and Ellsworth has everything you would need. We enjoyed an evening of live music at Fogtown restaurant and Black Moon Public House. Love the cute shops as well and the LLBean outlet.so many things to do!

Cabin in the woods

We absolutely loved this little cabin. It was spotless and decorated so cute. There was an amazing amount of storage, so clothes and luggage were all put away. It was too cool while we were there to swim, but we enjoyed the view of the lake. We will definitely stay here again.
