Oceanfront Cottage, Near Acadia National Park, Private Beach

Absolutely perfect. Could not have found a better, cleaner, quiet, comfortable place to stay for our visit to Acadia NP. Pat the host was easy to communicate with. This cottage was part of us having a great vacation in the Bar Harbor area. I highly recommend this home for your stay. Bill and Mary V.

Excellent execution of design and layout of a summer waterfront cottage. The gate latch needs to be fixed, so it stays closed. The red squirrel has difficulty crossing from one side to the other.

A quaint and cozy cabin along the water is the perfect way to spend some time away to unwind. The cabin is clean with everything you could need. Pat and Bob were quick and easy to communicate with. The ice maker and water in the refrigerator were waiting on parts during our stay. They communicated the issue and provided ice and gallon drinking water for our stay.It was the perfect place to sit outside drink your coffee and listen to the nature around.

Host was very welcoming. Cottage was very neat, clean, and had a well-stocked kitchen. Great place for quiet contemplation and relaxing. Fantastic base to explore the wonders of Acadia and Maine. Highly recommended!

This was the perfect cottage for a peaceful getaway near Acadia National Park. The cottage is located on a small hill, directly next to the ocean, with steps to get down to the shoreline. The East facing windows made for amazing sunrises every morning, and it was so quiet. I hope to stay again the next time I visit.

This cabin was perfect! Very clean and very well stocked. Close to Bar Harbor and Acadia without being to close. Having a section of private beach was fantastic! Hosts were very helpful and easy to work with.

Oceanfront cottage meets every need with cleanliness, perfect Acadia NP access, Cadillac mt range view with amazing sunrises, plus well stocked kitchen, comfy dining.& LR seating, great mattress coastal decor, shore access for walking, and calming deck views of the ocean.

Very nice cabin/cottage. Everything was wonderful. It overlooks water and the sunrises were amazing.

Perfect small cottage with easy stairs down to Goose Cove/MtDesert Narrows. Early morning sunrises over Cadillac mountain, viewed from the deck. Birdwatching heaven. New cabin with a well stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, game, books, maps and guides and Maine artwork. Short and easy drive to Acadia and Mt Desert Island. Responsive hosts who obviously love this gem. A perfect 10. I hope to return someday.

This is the perfect place to stay when visiting Acadia NP and Bar Harbor. Very nice cabin with everything you need in a quiet and beautiful location. Very close to great places to eat and the park. We would for sure stay here again if we return to the area. Thank you Pat and Bob for letting us enjoy your cabin.

The property was in close proximity to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The view from the property is why we selected this cabin. The unit was well equipped and maintained. Great communication with the owner.

Lovely and relaxing cottage with spectacular views. The Banach’s concern during the heat wave was appreciated, but the cottage stayed cool and breezy. The cottage was very clean and well stocked. All amenities were as described. A relaxing and quiet week.

The Banachs have created a beautiful cottage in a peaceful setting overlooking the water. The cottage was very clean, well equipped, tastefully decorated and the beds were comfortable. The Banachs were attentive and responsive hosts. Will likely request to stay again in the future!

The view was amazing, the home was divine, and the location couldn't be beat. We wanted to visit all three aspects of Acadia, and our stay put us close enough to everything. For our stay, it was perfectly peaceful, perfectly located, and perfectly set up for all your home-away-from-home needs.

We had a wonderful stay at the Banach cottage from May 31-June 7, 2025 to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary! Everything was clean and comfortable and as described online. We especially enjoyed being on the water and watching the eagles, gulls, loons, and seals directly out from the front deck. Luckily for us, the weather was nearly perfect with plenty of sunshine and temperatures in the 50s and 60s. We had one minor issue that was out of anyone's control, but the owners went above and beyond to address this very quickly.During the stay, we saw both the sunrise and sunset on Cadillac Mtn, ate at Jordan Pond, stopped at nearly all of the points of interest in Acadia, hiked Raven's Nest and the Schoodic Peninsula, went whale watching, and even took a day-trip to Lubec, Campobello, and St. Andrews, NB. Not to mention all of the shopping and lobster rolls in and around Bar Harbor! Needless to say, it was wonderful to have such a great (and quiet) place to come back to every evening after such long days :).We would 100% stay here again should our travels bring us back to Downeast Maine. Thank you to the Banach's for building and maintaining such a perfect cottage in a perfect location. It helped create many memories for both of us!

We had a wonderful time on the Bay! After time hiking and exploring Acadia and nearby sights it was great to settling into this quiet spot and watch the tides and see the wildlife. The kitchen is well appointed and we had everything we needed to cook good meals. When an unexpected noreaster came through late in the season the owner helped us to prep incase of a power outage. We gratefully did not have that occur, but it was comforting to be prepared. Great clean and well appointed space and we want to come back sometime.

Was a great property. Lovely views. Very cozy, quiet. We really enjoyed our time there. Will come again.

We were very happy with our stay at the Oceanfront cottage. It is a newer house with fabulous views of the mountains and on the water with steps down to a rocky sandy beach. It had everything we needed to prepare meals and was so comfortable and quiet. The house was very clean and well maintained. It was an easy 15-20 minute drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. I would stay here again if we are in the area.

This one- level cabin meet all of our needs as we explored Arcadia National Park. The space was well stocked and the owners are responsive - couldn't ask for more! It was rainy most of our stay and the cabin was cozy but the view of the water was breath-taking!

Great place, everything as advertised and owners great to work with.

Beautiful vacation rental. Quiet and scenic location. Rental is accurately described and we hope to be back soon!!!

Just what the doctor ordered. Quiet, peaceful, clean cabin with a view of goose bay. The sunrises were outstanding, and the wildlife is plentiful.

The oceanfront cottage was a perfect place to spend a relaxing week. Easy access to Acadia, quiet location, beautiful views of the sunrise over MDI, and a great kitchen for cooking. It was exactly what we were looking for.

Beautiful home, great view and conveniently located. Would love to come back again, thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful cabin.

Great place

Although this trip had been planned, I had major stress added when preparing as we were now in an evacuation vacation instead of relaxation vacation. The owner was so patient with my outreach, answered all of my questions and made me feel like a friend and not a very worried tenant (arriving late, changes in dates, etc.). The location and home are amazing but the owners and communication were the best part

This property met all our expectations. Lots of room, clean, great views and fairly close to what we needed. The deck looking out at the lake was perfect for lunch and watching the birds.

The cabin was all we hoped for and more! It truly was a little piece of heaven! Pictures can be deceiving, but not in this case! It is a private, beautifully furnished and very well stocked cabin. The owners thought of everything, and were very easy to communicate with! It was close to everything we wanted to do, but honestly it was difficult to even leave the cabin, it’s that perfect! We will definitely plan another trip to Acadia and we can’t think of a better place to stay! Thank you Patricia!

The house was very well appointed, and the view could not be beat. We haven’t been to the area in 20+ years and we had an excellent trip. Hiking and biking at Acadia, great dinners in Bar Harbor, SW Harbor and NE Habor. We went over to Great Cranberry enjoyed the boat ride and a couple of hikes on the island. Bar Harbor is a very happening town, and it was nice to get away at times to the cabin by the shore for a peaceful escape. Would highly recommend this little piece of heaven.

The cabin was perfect. So much attention was made to detail and comfort. A lot of supplies were there with the only request to replace something if you used the last of an item. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need .Great proximity to Acadia Nat'l Park, Bangor (There is a fantastic Transportation Museum there). Views were so beautiful from the deck. Enjoyed very much

Cottage was beautiful with a nice view of Western Bay. Good location close to Acadia National Park. The owners are exceptionally kind and helpful. This is our second stay and will be returning next year. Very happy and pleased with everything.
