About this property

Waterfront Acadia Schoodic Downeast Log Home with 650 feet of shoreline

Gorgeous oceanfront log home with 650 ft of shoreline and stunning water views!

Beautiful coastal contemporary home in a serene and private setting on 12.5 acres, this property beckons those who enjoy magnificent water views and the scenic beauty of Maine's pink granite shoreline. Watch the abundant marine life such as seals, porpoises and otters frolic in the bay as you enjoy your morning coffee from our Adirondack chairs on the shoreline or atop the pink granite nubble. Sited to capture dramatic views from every room, the first floor has an open concept kitchen with a new refrigerator and oven, living area with a queen sleeper sofa, dining area, 2 enclosed porches with lots of glass, a bathroom/laundry room and a master bedroom and bath complete with a jacuzzi tub and shower. The upstairs has a large loft with a queen sleeper sofa, library and sitting area offering gorgeous views of the water. Beyond the loft is a bedroom with 2 twin beds that can be made into a king, and another bedroom with a queen size bed. A full bath is also upstairs. The house is newly equipped with central air-conditioning.
Families as well as couples will enjoy exploring the expansive rocky shoreline and beach area. You can launch your kayak or canoe from either of our 2 coves on the property. 12 foot tides offer dramatically different views of the coastline and coves throughout the day and night and provide an array of activities that can be done at different tide levels. There is also a large clearing which provides plenty of room for lawn games and gatherings.

I can’t wait to come back. It was the perfect house for my family’s stay in Maine. The house was very private and peaceful. There were so many windows to look out at the beautiful bay. The kitchen had all we needed. The bedrooms were very comfortable. Dry weather prevented us from using the firepit, but in the right season would be amazing. The yard was well kept for my kids to play. A 40-50min drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia was very manageable. Seriously want to make this house a reoccurring destination for my family.

We initially booked this property for two nights to celebrate my 40th birthday, then booked another night because we didn't want to leave! The outdoor space is very serene, with a little bit of everything - water access, mossy areas, trees and lawn space - giving options for sun, shade and various activities. Enjoying the stars, birds, wildlife, tide and light changes was very relaxing (on-site wood for the campfire was priceless). The house was cozy and well-equipped, though we spent the vast majority of our time outdoors. Venturing away from the property one day to see Jasper Beach and then visiting Acadia Park on our way back home to VT were both well worthwhile. If you're looking for a peaceful, private retreat and appreciate nature, this is the place.

We were very impressed and happy with our accommodations. The home was just as it appears in the pictures, clean and cozy. The location was beautiful. We sat each morning at the waters edge watching the sun warm the day and enjoyed a fire in the evening watching the moon and stars dance upon the bay. Would not hesitate to spend time here again! Thank you for sharing this little piece of heaven with us.

checked the bucket list

My husband and I and our best friends stayed at your wonderful home for a week and loved everything about it. The house and property exceeded our expectations. The views were amazing! The sunrises were spectacular. We had everything we needed for a week and the location was perfect. We were also fans of the local restaurants, all within a 10 - 15 minute drive. Everyone we met was so nice and helpful too. We definitely will return. Thank you so much for sharing your home!

Amazing place to stay!!

My family and I have been vacationing in Maine for 30 years and this was by far our favorite place to stay. The house is very clean, comfortable and well appointed, it even has central air! The property is extremely quiet and peaceful with a beautiful water front view. We took advantage of the fire pit a few of the nights; nothing better than gathering around the fire after a busy day while the kids roast marshmallows. We brought our kayaks and swam in the small cove. The house is set way back off the road for privacy but only 10 minutes to town. There is a lot to do on the peninsula, including Acadia and we even took the ferry over to bar harbor one day. The owner is friendly and quick to respond, check in and check out is very fast and easy. Book this house now, you will be glad you did!

BEAUTIFUL!!!

My husband and I stayed here for 4-1/2 weeks, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was reluctant to book this rental, because there were no reviews from previous renters when I booked, but I wasn't disappointed. This home has wonderful, ever-changing water views, and sets at the end of a beautiful drive from the highway (approx. 1/3 mile). The inside is all rustic wood and looks even better than the pictures show. If you're looking for a beautiful home, with great views, quiet and comfortable, and within an hour from tourist attractions, this is your place. I highly recommend this rental.

Beautiful Cabin

We had a lovely family vacation and the cabin and setting were beautiful. Exactly what we needed! Plenty of privacy in this gorgeous setting on the water as well as a great location for exploring Acadia. The cabin was well appointed with any amenity we could could need. We would love to come back again!

Great property

We had a wonderful stay with family- plenty of space for all. House was clean and comfortable. We loved the board games and puzzles. We didn’t get to see any sea life but we did see plenty of deer. Even being overcast and rainy couldn’t take away from the amazing views. Our only want would have been a little later check out ….10 am was rough. We would definitely stay again.

Cute and secluded little cabin

Susan's property was beautiful! We loved staying by the water, using the firepit, and being separated from city living. The house is a little out of the way so make sure to get any shopping done in the daytime but it makes the nights so dark; it was perfect for stargazing over the water. Definitely would stay again!

BEST Stay EVER!!

This property is SOOOOOOOOOOO beautiful. The photos do not do it justice. it is a stunning home and amazing outdoor space. The firepit overlooking the bay gives guests the opportunity to enjoy the tranquility and wildlife that host you. Bar Harbor vs. Gouldsboro --Select this property. Bar Harbor is a short ferry ride from Winter Harbor, which is only a 10–15-mile drive from the home. Enjoy the fun of Bar Harbor then retreat back to your peaceful oasis. For your seafood needs to cook at home, visit Maine Fresh Catch Market in Trenton. They sell the best lobster, clams and many other seafoods, along with cooking guidance. If coming in from the south, stop for your grocery needs in Ellsworth at Hannafords. Our family would like to extend our thanks and gratitude to the homeowners for allowing us to be their guests. This home is a true gem. Book your stay NOW.

Gorgeous setting

Each morning looking out on the bay was spectacular. So serene and beautiful. The house was just enough for our family of 4. The beach is not really a beach for swimming because it is a mud that you sink into, but it would be a great spot for kayaking! Proximity to Schoodic was a plus. We made several trips onto Mt Desert Island throughout the week. Would definitely recommend!
