Oceanfront home on the Schoodic Peninsula

This is an 1850 sq ft cedar shingled home nestled on the shore of Gouldsboro Bay. This fully equipped home boasts open concept Kitchen/Dining/Living/Sun room with spectacular ocean views, 3 bed 2 bath and a library/reading room off the master bedroom that may be used as an additional bedroom. The property is a one-acre landscaped lot with 240 ft. of bold ocean frontage.

Peak season- Jun 15 to Sep 14 2025- weekly bookings only with arrival/departure on Sunday.

The home is located in the village of Corea in the town of Gouldsboro, ME on the Schoodic Peninsula. This area is known for its "real Maine" feel. Nearby Corea Harbor is a working commercial harbor filled with lobster boats. The Schoodic section of Acadia National Park is just a 10-minute drive away. Bar Harbor is approximately a 1-hour drive. There are a few local shops and restaurants, but the overall feel of the area is quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of other tourist towns.

The home sleeps up to 8 people. The master bedroom has a queen size bed. Second bedroom has an antique full-sized bed. The third bedroom has two twin beds. There is a reading room/library off the master bedroom with a pocket door for privacy that has an additional full bed. Two couches are readily available in the living room/sun room. Additionally, for young visitors there is a twin mattress that can be used on the floor or a pack and play that can be set up.

Family Acadia Trip
This house was the perfect spot for my family of seven to vacation to Maine and visit Acadia National Park. I did not want to be right in the middle of the busyness of the park traffic, and this was far enough away but not too far (only 30 minutes to Schoodic Point). The property was clean and spacious and the yard was amazing for the kids to play outside, check out the tide pools, etc. Very highly recommend!!

Fantastic property on the Schoodic Peninsula
Just a fantastic location, beautiful views of the bay, super quiet and peaceful. My 18 year old sons loved it there. The house is cute and well-cared for. The beds are quite firm, so if you prefer soft beds, you might want to bring some foam pads. The kitchen is basic but functional. Josh was easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again.

This is a phenomenal place
The perfect house, grounds, and view. The house is compact but even so the 5 of us had 4 places to sit and talk inside, plus on the deck, plus at the fire pit, and we never felt crowded. The owner is responsive and helpful. Everything you need for cooking, entertainment, and comfort is here. It's homey and comfortable, not fancy, which is so good. Neighbors are not too close. The view over the water is gorgeous. On clear nights, turn off the house lights and see a zillion stars. And enjoy the silence. Very highest recommendation.

This is our second stay here. Our friends joined us this year. We all loved the beautiful view. The house is well appointed fir a comfortable stay. The twin beds are a bit uncomfortable for adults. May be adequate for children. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Quiet and amazing views .
Enjoyed being on the Schoodick peninsula in a quieter area than Bar Harbor . An easy hour drive to Acadia which was beautiful. Took the ferry from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor which was fun . Lobsters fresh from the boat in Corea and oysters just down the street . The view from the property was amazing.

Don't pay for insurance
The beds were not very comfortable. We had to leave early due to a work related situation. We had the insurance but it was denied. Don't pay for the insurance , it is a rip off.

Very nice beach front house with great views
Very spacious and clean with a very large kitchen and living area. Large yard with fire pit, BBQ grill and a double chair positioned on waters's edge, so you can watch lobster and other boats. Thanks!

Beautiful sunrise and moonrise over the water
My family of six adults enjoyed this property. Very spacious. Well stocked. Fantastic waterside location for beautiful sunrises. We enjoyed the fire pit by moonlight too. Lots of brochures, maps, history. The washer and dryer are a real saver. Smaller suitcases! There is an hour ride to spend a day at Acadia NP, but we prefer nearby Schoodic for the smaller crowds. Plenty to do. And the Schoodic point has plenty of room for wave watching. Thank you Josh and Megan. I recommend it.

Better than expected
This house was perfect for us (3 adults + 3 kids). The lawn was lovely and looking out into the bay was magical when the sun was down and the bay was reflecting the pink sky. Lots of good stuff to do around Gouldsboro including Bunker’s Wharf restaurant. Lots of cool hiking around the Schoodic part of Acadia here. The house was amazing with great views of the bay even when the weather was a bit inclement. Rooms were great, but heads up all the beds are a bit firm. I like it that way, but just be aware. Overall, I'd totally book this place again. Thanks!

Great quiet spot right on the water. A group of six friends had a great relaxing weekend away watching sunrises/sunsets, walking the coastline and just enjoying the cosy, quaint space. Perfect weekend getaway to recharge and connect with each other.

Harbor Views
This was my second time at this property. The home is spacious and clean. The view of the harbor is my favorite part. There is something special about this part of Maine that is perfectly captured in this lovely getaway. The host was once again super friendly and easy to deal with. I plan on returning.

Beautiful Coast Getaway
We loved this property and pretending that we lived on the coast for a couple of days! Gorgeous house and gorgeous views. The kids enjoyed looking for crabs when the tide was out. If you don't mind the extra time to get away from Bar Harbor, you will love this spot!

Just what we wanted
We loved the location of the home, the peace and quiet of the area, the setting on the water. It was a nice place to come home too after spending two days in Acadia Park. We had quite a long ride each day but it was such a pretty drive. There were three of us staying and it was great because we all had our own bedroom - The house really filled our needs. We did not cook at the house but it was nice making coffee in the morning and being able to watch the sunrise...and in the evening it was nice having a glass wine when the moon was rising over the water. Lots of great opportunities for pictures too. Thank you so much for making sure that we would feel comfortable In the house. We did!
