Right on the water as advertised with a lovely view. Woke every morning to the sound of lobster boats and waves hitting the rocks. Very peaceful. Enjoyed being so close to Schoodic and taking the ferry from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor. Love this quiet part of Maine. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
We checked in at night and it was raining ! We so wanted to see the view ! The next morning my parents woke up to see the sun rise and it was absolutely gorgeous.They came and got me saying look at this view we are right on the water .My mom said the pics do not give this place justice.I chose this place to celebrate my parents both turning 75 this year.The communication was very good they fixed the TV and let us know that their was no air.The no air wasnât to bad at night with windows open .The house is decorated so nicely but the view is out of this world !!!
Extraordinary spot on the ocean with beautiful sunrises with a secluded feeling. Great for treasure hunting and sitting in the deck. Loved the kitchen, deck, and location. Lack of shower in master bathroom and flow of tiny space in bedroom and bathrooms seems main place for improvement. Maybe shelves instead of the big hutch. The claw foot tub is cool aesthetic but lack of shower curtain around it left only one shower for three people in the morning. Everything else was amazing so enjoyable!!
I came here with my 3 kids (in their 20âs)Sitting on the porch in the morning and at night was absolutely dreamy. Very quaint home. Plenty of restaurants nearby. We came for hiking and we were not disappointed.
Only thing missing was the telescope but replaced with binoculars. The rest was as shown in the picture. Really a wonderful place to escape and relax just as we wanted it to be. Only suggestion would be to place a fire pit on the deck since the fireplace isn't working.
We loved our short stay. The place is what we were looking for. Ashley is wonderful to work with. (Coastal Posh). We will definitely rent again. We Love Maine. Michael and Robin
Set back on a private dirt road the setting was perfect. The property was within 50ft of the ocean with spectacular views. The sound of the waves was relaxing no matter what time of day it was. The cottage itself was very cozy, well maintained and had all the necessities we needed for our getaway. Thank you!!!
We did a quick getaway for my husband's birthday. I couldn't have picked a better place to relax and unwind. If you love the beauty of Maine's Rocky Coast, you just need to step off the back deck. Make sure to bring supplies because Downeast Maine is NOT the big city. Love, love, love it!
We loved so many things about the cottage. Overall it was easy to use i.e. the washer/dryer are always appreciated and just the flow of the cottage worked really well. We are older so its being on one level was great and the views are stunning! It's close to great sight seeing and awesome restaurants. Being able to take the ferry over to Bar Harbor was a plus too!
Quiet and comfortable with gorgeous bay views. Eagles, hummingbirds, the occasional deer. Dark enough for exceptional star gazing and glimpses of the milky way. We hope to return.
The view from here of the ocean is incredible. The waves are amazing here and it was a great pleasure relaxing and cooking here. The kitchen has everything one needs. It is a remote area which we loved because we couldn't see the neighbors. . The bedrooms were on the smaller side but we like being cozy. There is plenty of room in the living room and outside for people to congregate. A part of Arcadia National Park is 3.5 miles away on the Schoodic Peninsula from the house.
The house is adorable! We enjoyed the view from the back patio: the lobster boats would move in and out of the harbor and pick up the traps. We even saw dolphins one day. The kitchen is well stocked. You can see the harbor from the living room and kitchen. It is effortless to interact from the kitchen to the family room. There are two comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms. Only one bathroom has a shower, however, the other has a big bathtub. We loved the location! It was peaceful,but we could still travel a short distance to get to a restaurant or for ice cream. The Schoodic Peninsula is AMAZING and not crowded. We saw great sunsets, fished, climbed on rocks, and had picnics. The drive to Acadia was a little over an hour but the scenery along the way made the trip go fast. Having a washer and dryer in the house was also a great feature. Quick responses from the owner and very easy to work with!!!! We loved every moment spent there.
So relaxing and beautiful! Property has everything you could need. Winter Harbor is a great little community. Lots of recreation opportunities on this side of Arcadia with very little crowding. I highly recommend!
The cottage was wonderful for my sister and I! Incredible to wake and have coffee out on the deck overlooking the ocean! The place is nice and clean and cheery!
We loved the location. We got to the location after dark. Walking in the front door we were immediately happy with our decision. Then when the sun came up in the morning the view of the bay was amazing. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.
