Newly renovated waterfront cottage with spectacular sunset views

Far from the crowds, but convenient to everything you want to do in Maine - Acadia, Bar Harbor, and more! Relax and enjoy the serenity and abundant wildlife of 1.6 wooded acres on beautiful Taunton Bay, including eagles, seals, loons, herons, osprey, and deer, or take a scenic 45-minute drive to Mount Desert Island to visit Acadia, Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor and Southwest Harbor, all with their distinct identities and attractions. The cottage is conveniently located in Sullivan, between Acadia National Park's main location on MDI and its exquisite, less-traveled mainland site, Schoodic Point, and just ten miles from the popular cafes, brewpubs and shops of charming downtown Ellsworth. Historic Sullivan offers quiet local hikes, easy access to gorgeous Tidal Falls Preserve in nearby Hancock, and a trail of unique artisan workshops, including sculptors, potters, weavers, and painters, as well as delicious local eateries.

The cottage is newly renovated, with a fully equipped kitchen complete with coffeemaker and local coffee, an open living and dining area with lovely forest and water views, and comfortable brand new mattresses in the two bedrooms. Watch the sunset over the bay from your lovely bluestone patio or screened gazebo, or take a short walk through a wooded path to see stunning, expansive views of Burying Island on your own private point. At night, read a book, play a game, or watch a movie, then fall asleep to the breeze in the pines and aspens, and the calls of owls and loons!

Whether you are in the mood to kick back, relax and enjoy nature, take in the iconic sites and outdoor experiences of Acadia, or explore local dining, nightlife and shops, this is the place for your Downeast Maine getaway.

Peaceful Lakeside Retreat with Stunning Views and Starry Nights
My stay was fantastic! The place was clean, well-kept, and exactly as described. The access to the lake was a wonderful bonus; the view was stunning, especially during sunset—a must-see. Another highlight was the night sky, which was absolutely spectacular, with countless stars visible. This spot is perfect for anyone looking to unwind and soak up some natural beauty. Highly recommend

We all travelled from Canada to admire the fall colors and boy, were we happy we did - so beautiful! The cottage was as promised! It is well appointed - everything we would have needed, including the coffee and creamer! The beds were comfortable and the towels were soft. If you weren’t so far away, we’d be coming more regularly!!

Cottage on the water
Beautiful cottage in a very private setting. The unit was extremely clean and bright. Sitting right on the water with benches arranged to view the wonderful sunsets. Fire pit available and lovely patio. We really enjoyed our time there and would highly recommend. Hope to book again,

Great place to stay
The place was as described. It was quiet, private and very nice. Equipped with everything needed, it was a great place to explore Acadia National Park and the Downeast coast. We were very very lucky and saw the aurora overlooking the lake. Would definitely recommend to anyone traveling to the area

A gem!
Lovely location Private, serene with a walking path close to the rivers edge. Peaceful setting with benches & picnic table to read, drink your morning tea or simply admire the view. Catching the sunset was epic. Stunning reflection of gold. Love this place!

The perfect get-away
My husband and I did a 3-night stay at the cottage to celebrate our anniversary. It was perfect. The cottage was efficient, clean, and in a beautiful setting. We kayaked off the point in the back yard in the morning and watched the sunset there at night. The house was located halfway between Bar Harbor/Acadia and Schoodic so we were able to hike in both locations. As for the house itself, it had everything we needed - comfy beds and linens, fans, nice non-stick pans, good knives, gas grill, fire pit, gazebo, and a patio with comfortable chairs. Everything seemed new and of good quality. We didn’t have any issues so didn’t need to contact the hostess but the communications we did have were great - she left helpful information of things to do in the area on the table (plus a bar of chocolate and a welcome note). I believe she lives nearby so I’m sure if there had been an issue, she would have been quick to respond. I highly recommend this property and look forward to staying there again myself.

Fantastic experience
The cottage was very clean and organized. You can tell that it was recently renovated and it felt modern but maintained the Maine cottage feeling. The cottage was stocked with utensils, cookware, and dishes - just about everything you’d need to cook during your stay. There was even what appeared to be a brand new grill on the patio. Along with that, there were plenty of clean blankets, pillows, etc. The proximity to the water was another huge bonus. After following a short path behind the cottage, you’re taken to a point that looks out toward the bay. The point was fairly private and was a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the morning. The host, Julie, was very responsive to messages. She also left us a very thorough welcome packet that contained information on where things were around the cottage, as well as what stores and activities were in the area. Overall, we had a great time. We would 100% stay again the future.
