The pictures do not do this place justice. The water views and sunsets from the deck are stunning. You can go and run around sightseeing all day and then come home to your private little piece of heaven. Absolutely no issues. The place was clean, beds were comfy, the A/C was cold, laundry on-site….doesn’t get any better. Hosts are extremely attentive, I can’t think of one amenity that wasn’t thought of and provided for. One hour from Bangor airport. Don’t wait…just do it!

I love Sea Rose Cottage! I've been twice with my husband and this time brought an old friend to experience my favorite place in Maine. The location is perfect, away from people and noise. Close to general stores and everything else is within easy driving distance in Ellsworth. I love the quick ride to Schoodic. I love the smash burgers at Ironbound restaurant. I spend all day reading and watching the view of the tides changing. Very comportable beds, sheets and pillows. My happy place. Thank you Bonnie

Host was very responsive and friendly. Cottage is very clean, bright, welcoming and well stocked. The beds, including sofa bed are quite comfortable. AC unit in main living area kept up well with temperatures in the 80s for the whole cottage. The outdoor space is amazing--deck, grill, fire pit, yard, and best of all the rocky ocean front with dramatic tides (11-12 feet!). The location is very private, relaxing and quiet. The cottage was our base for many days at Acadia and the drive to Acadia is easy (30-45 min depending where in the park). Very near the cottage is the Tidal Falls Preserve--very fun, we saw starfish, crabs, clams and of course the tidal falls. Many tasty nearby restaurants in Sullivan, Hancock and Ellsworth. Wifi is fast. We definitely will be repeat visitors when returning to Maine!

Honeymoon Getaway

This house was perfect, private and a relaxing place to wind down after exploring the area. Dinners in or a short drive to the local restaurants. Sunrise with a cup of coffee or a cocktail at sunset on the back deck was amazing. The board games were a blast to end a long day. The beds and pillows were heavenly.

The cabin was just as pictured, everything was well stocked and the decor and furniture was very comfortable. We immediately felt like we were home. We stayed 5 nights. It was such a wonderful time! The loons were on the bay every night. It was so peaceful to sit out back and enjoy the view!
