Our cottage was built in the 1960's and remodeled in 2009. It sits on 2 private acres and 250 feet of private ocean front. We are located at the confluence of the Narraguagus River and the ocean, bringing unique wildlife and birds to the area. Deer are plentiful and we have the occasional Moose as well! A short drive will take you to sections of Acadia Park, Petit Manan Wildlife Refuge, Chair Pond and Petit Manan Point. Only a 10 minute drive away, a hike up Pigeon Hill provides fantastic views of the coast and surrounding islands.

In season ( late July to mid August) we are only a few miles form the largest blueberry harvesting area in the world.

Milbridge is a coastal fishing community. It has a rich shipbuilding history and now supports a large lobster fishing fleet. The community - less than two miles away - has shopping, restaurants, antique shops and a medical center.

The cottage is also a great place to just relax and read a book, or sit out on the deck or lawn chairs and watch for eagles and see fishing boats coming and going from the bay. Bring your camera - spectacular sunset views occur almost every night.

On our lot we have a big open lawn great for kids to play on or for exercising you dog.

We are located in a quiet residential area with the closest neighbors several hundred feet away and screened by woods. The road does not have much traffic and is great for an evening stroll, jog or a bike ride. Set back and not visible from the road, the cottage is truly a private setting but still close to everything.

Family members live in the adjacent home and are a great source of information on the area and quick to help out with information and ideas about the area if needed.

    We had a wonderful stay. The host was quick to answer any questions we had. The views and sunsets were amazing. For delicious seafood we recommend Chipman's Wharf. Their lobster rolls and crab melts are out of this world - the best we've ever had!

    Property was great! Very quiet area, great view of the Narraguagus River with access to the shore at low tide for exploring for shells. Though it was cool in the evenings, we enjoyed the firepit twice, wood provided! We saw deer just a few feet away three times during our stay, but we weren't always there at dusk so they could have been there daily.The house is small but enough for 5 of us to be together, eat, and sleep. We made use of the full kitchen more than once. Laundry on-site was handy. Beds were comfortable, plenty of pillows, fans available on nights that were warm. Full bedroom is adjacent to the living room and has a sliding door to the only bathroom, so noise was a bit of an issue. Deck was a great place for peaceful early mornings and looking at all the stars at night! Host James was great!! Would definitely stay again!!

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay at this cottage. It was our 25th anniversary and we needed somewhere special to get away from the daily rush and enjoy time together. Downeast Maine was a great choice! We enjoyed poking around for shells and rocks at low tide; days with temperatures in the 60s; the rough ocean spray on the Schoodic Peninsula; waking up to a hazy sunrise. Cadillac Mountain was all fog the morning we were there on our Mount Desert Island excursion, but James' dad told us about the nearby Pigeon Hill and we wouldn't trade the views we saw there! We also went up to Lubec/Campobello Island/Eastport and had an elegant meal at Helen's in Machias on the way back. We drove more of the Maine coast on our way back to Portland for our flight home, but you can't beat downeast Maine. Thanks for everything, James!

    House is a small cottage on the water (stairs to get to the water). Wood floors creaked a little that just added to the charm Was worried about no a/c but opened the windows and the night air was amazing. Deer walking thru the yard, it was all just amazing. Well stocked, not that we needed much, extra blankets everything was just great.

    We had a wonderful time staying at this cottage in Milbridge. First let me talk about the cottage. The cottage was the perfect size for our group of 5 and had everything you would need to be comfortable. We enjoyed exploring the long rocky beach on our daily walks and sitting on the deck. The property is very well maintained and private, with a good amount of space between the neighboring homes. Location wise, it is just a few minutes to town and not far from Bar Harbor. The area was a lovely surprise. There were ample places to eat and go see. I recommend a drive up to Jasper Beach and Mexican food at Vazquez. There is a grocery store right in town and we found it had everything we could need. All communications with the owner were excellent with super fast responses. The property owner's have family next door who were very nice and gave us some excellent suggestions on things to go see and places to eat during our stay. It was nice to have that resource nearby. Overall we had a fantastic stay and will be planning on coming back.

    The place was exactly as listed, well stocked with everything you need for a great Maine experience. The owner had goodies upon are arrival that we very much appreciated and if you need anything, the owners are very easy to contact. Overall I give this place a 5/5.

    We stayed there for a week with our two dogs. We were looking for a place to have fun but also to relax. The house is located on the shore of the bay and is very quiet. The backyard is large, and our dogs enjoyed running there. The house is very clean and well-equipped for a long stay. The property is close to several nice trails, so we could hike every day. There are a few local shops nearby. We had breakfast with tasty pastries from a nearby bakery, Sugar & Crumbs, and enjoyed fresh fish, lobsters, and clams from Chipman’s Wharf every day. The owners are perfect hosts, very friendly and welcoming. We appreciated the basket of local products they organized for us at the property.
