About this property

Log Cabin on Saltwater Cove

This log cabin in the woods is on a gorgeous salt water tidal cove!  Enjoy deer, squirrels, birds, eagles, turkeys and more from the deck!  How about grilling you dinner on the gas grill and eating in the treetops under the sun?  Take a canoe ride to fish or see the views from the water, and warm up at night in front of the wood stove!  
The cabin is wonderfully secluded--many locals don't know it is here, with no neighbors but deer and the occasional eagle flying overhead.  
There is a canoe and life preservers provided. Use the wheeled trolley to help you with the canoe up and down the path if you would like! The path is on the property, and is about a 2 minute walk to the water. It is a tidal cove, so check the tide charts for tides.

Bedroom 1:  Queen sized bed, storage and wood floors 
Bedroom 2:  Queen sized bed, child's bed (suitable up to a 10 year old) 
Loft:  Day bed with a trundle that makes 2 twin size beds.  
There is Wifi at the house. New on this road, it is not powerful for working from home but it is great for checking emails, etc. The wifi is spotty.
It is a short drive to local lobster merchants, wonderful hiking and swimming in pristine lakes.  Feel free to take our canoe out for a paddle in the cove, or head out at low tide so that you can do some clamming in the front of the property.  At the end of the day, take a moment to sit by the wood burning stove. It is a great place to explore the limitless relaxation and recreational opportunities of Downeast and Acadia.  ., about a 18 mile drive to Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park.  It is also about a 15 minute drive to the Schoodic Peninsula. 
Ellsworth:  8 mile drive to Shaws, Hannafords, Walmart, Renys, LLBean Outlet, Walgreens,  restaurants, shopping, antiquing, theatre, and more.  
Hancock:  4 miles, Carters Beach, clay tennis courts, kayak tours, sailing, Crocker house restaurant, Ruth and Wimpies restaurant, Chippers

Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us! We loved the porch, inside space, ample bedrooms and wonderful kid-friendly loft. Being out in the woods but close to so much beauty was the perfect summer vacation for our family.

Cute cabin with a wonderful deck to relax on. Beautiful, peaceful location with lots of privacy and trees but still convenient to many attractions. A bit of a hike downhill to the water which "peeks" through the trees, so we didn't try the canoe. An FYI for anyone who has to have workable internet, you will learn to "unplug" as the wifi was non-existent unless you tether to your phone. Cell service was just fine. We definitely got to unwind here!

Secluded Cabin in the woods

Very nice,well stocked cabin deep in the woods was perfect location for our family vacation in Maine. The location was ideal as we split our time between Schoodic peninsula and Bar Harbor. Wi-Fi was poor (to be expected deep in the woods), but not a problem as we played card games, read, etc. in the evening and were off exploring during the day.
Our first view of the cabin.

Great location to enjoy all that Acadia offers! Well maintained log home in private setting. Everything clean and no odors. Well equipped. Has clean gas grill and oven, gas range, clean bathroom and shower. Great washer dryer in basement which is accessible from outside the house. Comfortable beds. Screens and windows are in great shape so you can enjoy nice breeze. Nearby local markets and takeaways seafood. Would definitely stay here again!

Overall we enjoyed the stay, cute cabin There were a couple of things that I would change though. Towels had a very musty smell. I’m thinking because one has to put them to wash before checking out and if you leave early they are just sitting in washer till cleaners arrive. There was a bedroom that also had an odd smell almost like spices. We are a family of 6 when we would have breakfast or dinner we couldn’t all sit at the table due to that there were only 4 chairs. These are small things just thought to point out. Overall we enjoyed the cute cabin.

A Beautiful Stay

My family and I had a most wonderful time at the cabin by the cove. We dug up clams and tried the canoe, and our dog loved rolling about on the grass in front of the property. The surrounding area is replete with scenic views and quaint shops, and the cabin is a very manageable drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, which we visited several times. We are very pleased with our visit and hope to be back again soon!

The woods and the sea together, overwhelmed with the things to see and experience. Love the stars at night. You're able to see the bands of the milky way. Kids loved the vhs tapes.

A piece of heaven

My family stayed here for three nights and we had a wonderful visit. The cabin was so clean and cozy and the wood burning stove helped warm us up from our cold hike. The property manager (Susan) was so kind and helpful and she answered all our questions.

Cozy cabin in the woods.

Located on the quiet side of Acadia near the Schoodic Peninsula, this cabin is the perfect location to explore the more off the beaten path side of the park, as well as a perfect retreat from the crowds. Rustic and cozy, the wrap around porch and deck with grill are awesome additions. We will be sure to stay here in the future.

Maine log cabin

A very clean, comfortable and remote get a way. We couldn’t have been happier with this rental. Close enough to Acadia National but removed enough for us to unwind. We generally ate out but everything you needed to prepare a family meal was there.

Cabin in the woods

If your looking for a cabin in the woods this is it! Very comfy cozy, has everything you need. Love that there's a canoe for a very peaceful, relaxing, and beautiful scenic crusie on the lake. We very much enjoyed our stay! Be aware of ticks, you may want to use tick spray when going out for walks.

Awesome cabin tucked way back in the woods, very quiet and secluded!

We stayed at this cabin for our honeymoon and it was perfect! Only 30 min from bar harbor and Acadia park, also only 20 min from the schoodic peninsula! Both areas are beautiful for hiking biking or sight seeing. Would recommend it to anyone!

Relaxing secluded getaway

I had a wonderful time at this cabin, and it was just what I needed to destress and relax. The property is beautiful and convenient to a number of good restaurants, bakeries, lobster purveyors, and excellent places to take in nature. I had a number of excellent nights reading next to a cozy fire while listening to the sound of silence and I could not recommend it enough

Neat little cabin in the woods…

Quite secluded which is nice. Didn’t spend much time around the property as we spent most of our time in Acadia. House is fully equipped. Property manager is responsive and kind.
