Outstanding Oceanfront Log Home near Acadia National Park

A Message to Our Valued Renters:

We’re sure that you are experiencing more stress than you would like in these uncertain times.
A great spot to just relax and enjoy the view. Our renters agree that the photographs don't do it justice. A large great room has floor to ceiling windows overlooking the bay, and has a stone fireplace so you can watch the sunset or sit by the fire. The kitchen is very well appointed and includes just about everything the chef desires except the food. There is a full laundry room with a washer and a dryer. No need to waste hours at the laundromat. The rec room includes a ping pong table, games, video tapes, DVDs, and satellite TV as well as a cozy stone fireplace and a seating area to relax and enjoy the fire or the spectacular view of Frenchman Bay. The children's bedroom is furnished with a full/twin bunk bed, a twin size bed, and a Pack n Play. In addition there are two beautifully furnished bedrooms with queen-size beds. There is a queen size sofa bed in the great room, another in the rec room, and two comfortable inflatable beds which each sleep two adults.


The home is located about 35 minutes from Bar Harbor, the hub of activities on Mount Desert Island and gateway to Acadia National Park. Bar Harbor offers dozens of restaurants and shops and also kayak and bike rentals.

Hikers who prefer less crowded trails will find that nearby Black Mountain and Schoodic Mountain offer gorgeous panoramic vistas of lakes, ponds, Frenchman Bay, and the Porcupine Islands without the large numbers of hikers found on the better known trails of Acadia.

Winter Harbor, just 5 minutes away, offers galleries, shops and dining, all located in a quaint lobster fishing village with a picturesque town harbor and dock. A passenger ferry runs numerous trips daily from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor. Lobster pounds abound, and two are located within a couple of miles of the house. Swim and fish at nearby Jones Pond or Donnell Pond at the foot of Schoodic Mountain. Kayaks can be rented in nearby Birch Harbor and kayak tours can also be arranged.

The entrance to the Schoodic Section of Acadia National Park is a few minutes from the house by car or bike, and is a beautiful 'secret' spot which is visited by only a few of the thousands of visitors to Acadia.

Great Views, Quiet/Peaceful area
Great views at the house and very clean well maintained property. If you’re looking for more activities and don’t want to drive 50 minutes to get to Bar Harbor staying in the main part of Acadia might be a better option but we didn’t mind the driving and the area is very quiet and peaceful.

Beyond Beautiful
Beautiful property. House had everything we needed. Great open layout. Clean and comfortable. We were able to do laundry so we didn't have to overpack. Beds are hard to please everyone. We will bring our pillows next time. Master could use a topper to make a little more comfortable. Loved the property so much, we have already booked for next year. Location was perfect. Close to the Schoodic Peninsula which is part of Acadia, just breathtaking. We went to Bar Harbor but this area near Schoodic was exactly what we were looking for. Winter Harbor had several wonderful restaurants: Treehouse Seaside Grill, The Gallery and Chases. Close to Corea for fresh lobster rolls.

Amazing Property
This property is one of the nicest we've experienced in over 10 years of renting vacation houses. It is beautiful, clean and well equipped. Some one has done an amazing job of decorating and there isn't a supply item forgotten.

Serene and just perfect!
This property is amazing. It is such a serene and relaxing place. The view off the back deck is truly indescribable!! It is close enough to Acadia Park and Bar Harbor but far enough from the tourism. We loved it and plan to bring our family back.

Maine Event
We spent a wonderful July week at the home. While the setting on the water was rustic, the home was modern, up-to-date, clean, and well-appointed. The location allowed for magnificent trips to the nearby Acadia National Forest and excursions into a quaint and bustling Bar Harbor. A nature cruise in the harbor, where we saw bald eagles, seals, porpoises, and ospreys, capped off a great vacation.

Beautiful and relaxing location
This spacious cabin was a lovely stay. It was clean and well appointed. Privately nestled in some pines against the water, you get some nice views through the trees and a short walk to the water to have some fantastic views. This is close to the much less crowded Schoodic Peninsula part of Acadia Park, and let us bike to the park from the cabin. The near by town is small and for those looking to avoid the crowds of Bar Harbor, this is perfect. There is still a ferry to Bar Harbor and you can drive there to see it and the main part of the national park.

Satisfied customers
The house and views are stunning. We cooked every night in a well equipped kitchen The good news is that there are not many tourists around winter harbor. The downside is that there is only one place for dinner nearby

“Maine” Family Experience
Property is beautiful and spacious. We had plenty of room for our party of eight. The most amazing thing about the property is the view!! It greets you as soon as you open the front door. You won’t be disappointed if choose to stay here. I wish the weather had been better for us so that we could have enjoyed the porch more. Everything was clean and it was fully stocked with everything we needed. We’d definitely stay here again!

Beautiful oceanfront home
This was truly a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. The ping pong table, ring toss game, and game room were a big hit. The house is very close to Winter Harbor where you can enjoy restaurants, the Five and Dime, etc. The only negatives (which we’re not terribly negative) were the poor lighting and the bed in the master was not a king size. But overall, we loved this house and would gladly stay again!

Loved this hidden gem
From the moment we stepped inside the front door of Rich and Karen’s cabin/chalet we were completely captivated and totally mesmerized. The incredible view of Frenchman Bay greets you the moment you walk through the door. And if the view doesn’t blow you away all of the detailed wood work, high ceilings with beams and craftsmanship that went into the building of this home will take your breath away. They really thought of everything to ensure you and your family are entertained in their home from the ping pong table to board games to adventuring in tidal pools during low tide you’ll love the peaceful down time and chance to unplug and reconnect as we did.

Acadia park
Very nice property But no hand soap or soap in the bathrooms plus only one roll of toilet paper and every bathroom and I for an entire week would’ve been nice to have more toilet paper and some hand soap at least to wash up after using bathroom Also, hurricane Lee was heading towards Maine the day before was supposed to hit while we were out homeowner came in and rearranged patio furniture into the house would have been nice to be told he was coming into the house That day, while we were out in the entire thing in the lack of communication there

Fabulous home; amazing sunsets
Terrific overall experience in an amazing log home. Exceptionally well maintained and clean, with a great layout and amenities. Each day, we enjoyed the convenience to Acadia (Schoodic) and other hiking spots less traveled. Small town just up the road, including shops, farm stand, and fresh seafood. Back at the home each late afternoon, we enjoyed the quiet of the harbor, a beverage on the porch, and taking in sunsets over winter harbor. Then, building a fire in the fireplace while preparing dinner in well-equipped kitchen. Customer service was excellent, too. From the booking process and initial communication with Rich to his checking in with us to see if we had any questions--all made for a great stay.

Beautiful and relaxing!
This property is gorgeous and has everything we needed to make our family vacation a fun, relaxing and memorable one. We enjoyed spending time on the shoreline along the back of the property, hiking the numerous trails at nearby Schoodic Peninsula and the beautiful drive into Bar Harbor. We found something different to do every day and our 3 boys (ages 14, 11 & 6) did not want to leave after 2 weeks! The house is equipped with everything that we needed for our stay, including a lobster pot which we put to good use steaming lobster for the first time. The ping pong table in the basement was awesome entertainment for the boys. There is ample space for guests to sleep and to just hang out. Rich Krasner was very welcoming and easy to communicate with about any questions we had. Definitely a great find!!
