Peaceful escape

We booked this for part of Maine trip and loved it so much we asked to extend it 2 additional days. The beach was secluded and sunsets amazing. Heather thought of everything. I would come back again.

Didn’t want to leave

We had an amazing time and the owner was extremely accommodating as our arrival was delayed by a couple days. The cabin was incredibly clean and you can tell it is well cared for. The property is tucked away along the shore and our daughter had a great time hunting for sea shells. She kept saying “I don’t want to leave my cabin in the woods”.. We all wish we could have stayed longer! We hope to come back next year!

Peace and Quiet

This cabin was just what we were looking for...some much needed peach and quiet. The cabin is surrounded by trees with not another house in sight. We loved walking to the beach everyday and enjoying the sounds of wind and water. The stars at night were so clear and we were even able to enjoy the northern lights one night. Wow! The cabin had everything we needed. Heather checked in on us to make sure we were ok and left lots of information about the area that was helpful. We enjoyed our stay and are already planning to bring other family back at a later date.

Perfect getaway 😀

I couldn't have picked a better place for a perfect getaway. The cabin is simply beautiful. It was equipped with everything to make us feel at home😊. We loved going down to the private beach to watch sunset everyday we stayed. I believe the host plays a good part in making one comfortable and that is exactly what Heather did. She was wonderful and answered any questions I had. This cabin is a must stay for anyone who wants to get away from the hectic life and yet enjoy all the adventures Acadia National Park has to offer. Absolutely loved it and hope to make it again soon. Thank you very much Heather for a great getaway 😊

Highly Recommend!

This cabin is as private and peaceful as they come. The host has provided all the amenities of home and then some. Heather was great to communicate with and very informative regarding the area. She really has done a great job making this cabin cozy and beautiful and has put so much thought into what people may need to enjoy the full experience of her property. Stunning views from the beach, we were able to have a fire and watch the sunset. It was just the two of us this time but is a great property for kids too! Also, The local lobster shack she recommended was incredible! We enjoyed many meals there. Thank you for everything Heather!

Most amazing cabin in the woods with private beach access!

I can’t even begin to describe how beautiful this property is. It’s secluded with a beautiful woodsy, trail to your private beach for amazing sunsets. The owner was easy to reach and responded quickly. The cabin was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. I will definitely come back to this beautiful property.!!

The perfect Maine getaway

This was my family’s first trip to Maine. Based on the pictures alone, I was hoping this week would be special and it more than lived up to the hype. The space itself is perfect and checked all of our boxes for providing a great space for our two kids (ages 9 and 5), a place for a retreat, and providing beautiful views of Maine. We loved our daily walks to the private beach and sitting on our porch listening to all the birds and observing the wildlife. It’s in good proximity to stores and groceries if needed (Blue Hill and Ellsworth) and the was a reasonable drive to Acadia National Park to take in those sights. I can’t speak highly enough of this location and the host - Heather. She was an excellent communicator and provided us with whatever we needed in a very quick time. We can’t wait to come back again and I can’t recommend this higher. It was beautiful.

Always a Wonderful Experience.

Second time here. Property is a delight as is Heather, the owner. Off the beaten track location, which is nice, but not so far from a town that getting supplies is a drag. A few hundred feet to the rear you will discover a delightful wooded area then a few more steps to Morgan Bay. It’s truly like having your own personal beach. If you are a quiet nature lover, you’ll find your chi here. If not, you’ll still find it here. Did see a porcupine here racing us up the drive. That was new. 😝

Ahhhhhh

Arrived as the sun was setting and before we even unpacked we followed the pine scented path through the woods to the shore, letting the peacefullness and quiet settle into us after a long scenic drive through coastal Maine. The cabin was perfect for us; wecoming and cozy when returning from our daytime explorations of the Blue Hill Penninsula, Chastain, and Acadia. Late fall is an amazing time to be here, exploring the shoreline, walking through the leaves and spotting all kinds of mosses and mushrooms as well as so many varieties of evergreens with all their different aromas. Blue Hill Co-Op has a great cafe with all kinds of vegan, gluten- free, vegetarian and other healthy choices as well as sandwiches etc. and fresh baked goods. It's a,so a great grocery store if you like lots of healthy options. Provender Kitchen-Bar was a great choice for our last night! Heather was always very quick to respond to questions and offered great suggestions. The information group has a section about the property history; I wish had read it sooner. It was very informative about the land stewardship and agricultural usage. Next time I'll hike from shore to shore of the property! Thank you Dyer family.

Get Away

Place was awesome. Location away from congestion of city/town. A bit of a drive to that if you’re looking for it. Great winding driveway. Very peaceful and tranquil. Day trip to Acadia. All appliances and accessories provided. We packed light and did laundry in evening. Nice deck with plenty of furniture, fire pit, grill. Comfortable master bed and living room furniture. We didn’t need it for just two of us but loft looked comfy for guests/kiddos. Heather responded quickly to a couple questions on area and had no problems/concerns during our stay. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Cabin Experience

The cabin was pristine on a lovely, secluded lot near Acadia National Park. It was great to have all the creature comforts after spending the day in nature. Heather went out of her to accommodate a last-minute date change due to Hurricane Lee. I will highly recommend this cabin to any family and friends visiting Acadia.

A small piece of heaven

We enjoyed an amazing week at the cabin. We went kayaking with the seals, found a bunch of starfish and had fires on the beach while watching some truly spectacular sunsets. The cabin itself is a wonderful mix of simple and comfortable yet it has an understated elegance that makes it incredibly charming and makes it feel like home. We absolutely loved our week here!

Hello! my name is Heather and I am the owner of this cute little cabin in the woods! My grandfather bought this property long ago and it has always been my dream to build this cabin! My partner (Tim) and our two boys (Tommy and Liam) love to spend time exploring the woods, swimming at the beach and roasting marshmallows over a beach fire! It is a quiet spot with a relaxing front porch with an ocean breeze! We are so excited to share this special place with you!

Why they chose this property

This property allows you to sit & relax and get away from it all! Great for families! The sunsets are breathtaking and a family of deer wander around regularly.
