This place is a delight! Fantastic family place steps from the water. We enjoyed everyday watching the sun rise and the birds dive into the sea.

We had a wonderful stay at this waterfront property. The location is truly unique, set on a beautiful peninsula with incredible panoramic water views from every direction. It felt peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature. The home was comfortable, relaxing, and the perfect place to unwind. We would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect relaxing rustic escape. This is what you would expect from a rural Maine property so our family wasn’t bothered by it. Nice selection of games and puzzles. Gorgeous property views.

Beautiful little compound in a great private area. The location cannot be beat. We simply loved it, especially with our dogs. The family is wonderful to work with. We did not find having to use bottled water for cleaning, drinking or cooking (esp since so much is provided) an issue. We'd honestly stay here again in a heartbeat!

Our retreat was awesome with gorgeous views of the bay, eagles and other magnificent birds plus 3-4 seals who visited us daily. Along with nearby hiking trails we drove into Acadia National Park which was unfortunately very crowded so we hurried back to our very own peninsula to enjoy the solitude, watching the tides roll in and out. Definitely recommend our location to others seeking peacefu gorgeous escape .

My family really enjoyed staying here. The house was lovely and comfortable, and the location was perfect. It was far enough away from other houses and towns that it was super quiet at night and you could see so many stars in the night sky with no light pollution. It is the perfect atmosphere to relax and enjoy nature. It is also not far from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, where there are many more activities, shopping, and dining. I highly recommend it!

Great secluded location with easy access to the Schoodic Peninsula. The two building set up allowed the two of us to stay in one cottage while my daughter and her family stayed in the other.

Beautiful, quiet downeast Maine coastal property. If you’ve visited Mt Desert island but found the Schoodic peninsula more your speed, you will love this place. Past the crowds, seals and eagles everywhere. Plenty of space for the whole family inside and out. Our kids loved the separate bunkhouse cabin and sea kayaking every day.

We loved every minute of our stay! It was wonderful waking up on the water everyday. We had so much fun bird watching and kayaking. Our dog had the time of his life exploring the peninsula. The home was well stocked with everything we needed for our stay and Tori was a great, responsive host. We can't wait to come back!

My family (2 adults and 4 kids plus dog) had a phenomenal stay at such a special place. We hiked every day, saw lots of wildlife, the kids played on the rocks and swam, went out on kayaks, did a puffin tour and ate some great food. It’s such a peaceful location, family friendly, and surrounded by dramatically beautiful scenery.
