We loved the quiet, private location with the spectacular water views. Every night we enjoyed sitting by the fire pit. For our anniversary dinner we sat on the back deck, eating fresh oysters from down the street, steamed our own lobsters and grilled steak right in the backyard over looking the water! If you do want to leave this beautiful setting you don’t have to travel too far to some local restaurants/ live music and of course the breathtaking trails of Schoodic Peninsula. However you may not want to leave this house, Kazzie has thought of everything and the interior decorating is top notch. You won’t find a more welcoming host!

Beautiful view and home!

My wife and I stayed at this property and were very pleased with everything. The house was very clean and had so many things that made us feel welcome. The property manager was super useful and had great recommendations. And the view with being right on the water was beautiful. We loved how it was away from the bigger towns yet close enough too.

The house was beautifully decorated and well equipped. The view was spectacular and the only thing we needed was more time at this house. Kazzie could teach a class on hospitality! We had a chilled bottle of wine and glasses waiting for us, along with homemade fudge and snacks. We were greeted with home baked blueberry crunch for breakfast and it was so delicious! The house was close to the Schoodic entrance of Acadia. The park was beautiful. Next time we want to take the ferry to Bar Harbor for the day.

Fantastic Host and Property

This property was immaculate. From the moment we stepped through the door, it felt like a home. Karen thought of everything imaginable to make it a perfect stay. From the beautiful carriage house, to the fire pit overlooking the ocean, and of course the beautiful rocks and ocean that only the Maine coast can provide! Thank you for making this such a great getaway for us! We will definitely be back!

You are a wonderful host, the set up and thought out card and flowers 💐. I couldn't ask for anything more. It's good to know their's still good people in this world. The property is worth the drive and we didn’t even need to call you once everything was laid out perfectly. You're artistic with the way your vacation home is. I would come back over and over again.

Wonderful

Surely the best appointed rental property we have stayed at; every little detail was thought of (good coffee/tea, various outdoor seating options, laundry supplies, bug spray, pillow options, etc., etc.). And the cleanest: every inch of the place was completely spotless, as if it were brand new. Excellent communication from owner. Beautiful, very quiet and calm location, out of the way of the Acadia crowds and traffic, but perfectly convenient (the Schoodic part of the national park is lovely, a very short drive, and comparatively not busy at all). Absolutely no complaints, or even criticisms. Highly recommended.

Beautiful property right on the coast

When you arrive, you feel so welcomed by the many thoughtful surprises that await you... The house is beautifully furnished, everything is practical and tasteful. Thanks for the choice of coffee pods (and teas too)! Enjoying the sunrise on the deck was unique, as well as the different areas right by the ocean. I would love to come back to this ideal retreat - I was travelling solo and loved every minute of my stay in Slack Tide Carriage House as well as exploring the area. I will end this review in my native language (I'm a French-spaeaking Swiss woman): j'ai adoré cette tranche de vie sur la côte du Maine, empreinte de sérénité et de beauté. Merci Kazzie!

First trip to Maine

My husband wanted to “stay on the water in Maine” and this is what met our needs near Acadia National Park. The host was incredibly accommodating, pleasant, and thoughtful. We let her know we were expecting and she left a bottle of sparkling grape juice instead of wine…how sweet! She was in communication leading up to our arrival and answered any and all questions. The house is immaculate and every detail has been thought through for what guests might need. The scenery is beautiful and so relaxing. It is about 30 minutes into Ellsworth for mainstream grocery stores and food and about 45 minutes to Acadia National Park. We found it to be a welcome retreat in the afternoons and cooked all our dinners there. We were genuinely sad to leave!

Beautiful house with a view!

What a beautiful,peaceful location on the coast of Downeast Maine! Slack Tide Carriage House did not disappoint. The house is wonderful with all of the comforts of home. Kazzie thought of everything! We were celebrating our 40th Anniversary and she thoughtfuly had a bottle of wine and some chocolate candies for us, and some yummy homemade chocolate chip cookies! Waking up to a beautiful sunrise each morning from the comfort of the house. While enjoying a fire we heard the loons. We even saw the Aurora Borealis our first night there! The house is in a great location. We visited FDR's summer home on Campobello Island in New Brunswick, walked on the beach at Rogues Bluffs, did a little hiking and Schoodic Point! Kazzie thank you for giving us a tour of Mermaid's Mist. It is beautifully decorated with an amazing view! We'll have trouble deciding where to stay the next time. Thank you so much Kazzie, we enjoyed meeting you. We definitely would love to come back and stay sometime in the future.

Slack Tide a Destination in it's Own Right

We spent several days visiting towns on the coast with our final destination being SlackTide. It was such a relief to "settle" for a few days. I was a little nervous about hurricane Lee hanging out so long but Kazzie was great about putting my mind at ease. We woke up every morning to watch the sunrise, the stove is on thermostat and it came on every morning for about an hour, and we would drink our tea/coffee and enjoy the fire. We visited US Bells which was fascinating and very close. We visited a little art gallery called Chapter Two that was right around the corner. Our first stop was Darthia Farms and we went there twice. Me and Ben's Dairy Creme is a must stop, as is Lunch on the Wharf. We both came down with a head cold and weren't feeling great so we didn't ride bikes to Schoodic Point, but it just gives us a good reason to go back. We took a quick trip to Bar Harbor and had lunch at the Terrace Grill. Way to many people for us, so we scurried back to Corea. We did get to watch a fishing boat unload it's lobster, which was interesting. We ended every day by the fire pit, listening to the ocean, and star gazing. We were so fortunate to have such clear days. I'm sorry we burned up a seasons worth of firewood Kazzie! George wanted me to add that. 😉😊 Honestly, it was a wonderful place to stay, and we enjoyed our forays in the middle of the day, so we could better avail ourselves of the amenities at SlackTide. Thank you for sharing you carriage house with us Kazzie.

A beautiful stay on the Schoodic peninsula! We so enjoyed our time here. The house was lovely, with everything you could need, including firewood, fire starter and igniters for the outdoor fire pit, a well-equipped kitchen, a very comfortable bed, and amazing sunrise views, as well as a welcoming bottle of wine and homemade fudge.
