Oceanfront Cottage, Spectacular Views. Hodgkins Haven

N/A

This cabin was divine. Cozy but room enough — main bedroom plus a loft bedroom on the second floor. A generous main room plus kitchen, and a really nice smart TV for entertainment. Super clean and updated. The view … it’s all about the location and the view. Out the back door you are literally a few steps from the ocean — high tide and low tide, both spectacular for a walk out on the rocks. Every morning you wake up, pour yourself a cup of coffee, and just enjoy the tranquility. Watch the lobster boats go out, and the gulls and ducks, and listen to the waves lap at the rocks. Nearby, both the Milbridge House and Vazquez Mexican restaurants are really good, and the grocery store is only about 12 minutes away. Acadia is anywhere from 45 to 75 minutes away, depending on where you’re going in the park, I would absolutely stay here again, and recommend it to friends.

Karl was great and the cottage was fantastic; recently rebuilt and the attention to detail was top notch. The views were breathtaking. We plan to come back.

Wow! Those sunrises! That summarizes our feelings about this lovely cottage. Four adult family members spent a week there, and I can’t say enough about how beautiful it is. The property is very clean, private, and well maintained. Karl was a gracious host, willing to help us out if we needed anything, but it was already all there. We used the cabin as a base for trips to Acadia, Quoddy Head State Park and Campobello Island/Roosevelt Cottage, and a trip up to Jonesport to visit a dear friend and buy lobsters at the co-op there. We enjoyed walking the beach and looking for sea glass at the Pigeon Hill trail and at Roque Bluffs State Park. But honestly, the best part of our stay was sitting at the cabin and soaking in that view of Pigeon Hill Bay. We hope to make a return trip in the future. Well done, Karl, and thanks!

A true gem with spectacular scenery! The host was gracious and very helpful. The cottage itself is a delight. Well appointed with everything we needed including a supply of paper products. We enjoyed watching the tides change and the fishing boats head out to sea. Neighborhood was quiet and the setting very peaceful. Enjoyed the local hiking and easy access to Acadia National Park. Being right on the water was a real treat for this former New Englander. Great selection of books about Maine and helpful supply of maps and guide books. Definitely plan to stay here again. Highly recommend!

Outstanding but no washer.

The view was incredible-- it was a great place for us

Great, peaceful place with close access to pigeon hill hike and Petit Manan. Internet was super slow to the point of being almost useless, but we were there to disconnect anyway. Very helpful and communicative host!

Truly an excellent location for peace and quiet. Sounds of water and nature. Amazing communication with owner. Can tell he takes pride in his location. Definitely coming back next August.

Great location. Great stay. Great host.

Perfect slice of heaven! Owner super easy to deal with. Setting is amazing! Need to travel little for restaurants cause it’s away from the hustle and bustle, very quiet. Bring some food and grill and buy fresh lobsters close to cottage.

There is peace here. It was waiting for us on the rocks by the water.There is quiet here. It came to us in the days and nights with the calls of the gulls, the bark of a seal and the water gently lapping on the rocks.There is beauty here. It captured us with every gaze out over the water in the colored speckled dots and the tree covered islands and that big beautiful sky.There is charm here. It greeted us with that perfect balance of creature comforts and rustic feel. There is thanks here. It grew in us each day we got to stay. A great trip and a great place just brimming with peace, quiet, beauty and charm. Thank you so much for making our stay fantabulous! - Ginger-Al

From the moment you drive in driveway you are hit with coastal view very few get to have.The cottage lacked for nothing...just bring food and clothes! All the items bbg,. Grill ,appliances,fixtures,linens all top notch. The cleanliness is above and beyond! The owner very responsive and sensitive to your needs.

The cottage is clean, well stocked, welcoming and in a magnificent location! The sunrises are breathtaking and watching the seals, fishing boats, and seagulls are so peaceful. The owner was close by if needed and left list great hikes and food nearby. Highly recommend this magical place!

So happy this was where we celebrated our ten year wedding anniversary. The perfect slice of heaven! Can’t wait to come back.

The pictures on this listing do not do this gem justice. This cabin is just magical. It is hidden away in the woods, but with a waterfront view that is spectacular! It is quiet and relaxing. There is a flat rock just out on the water that I would sit on every morning and every evening and just listen to the water, the birds, and the fishing boats. It is so calm and just perfect. So much love has been put into this home. Highly recommend! We went originally with the intent to go to Acadia. It is just over an hour away from Acadia, but it was totally worth it. Would go back in a heartbeat!! Owner responded to all questions quickly. Seriously just a perfect stay. Book it!! You won't regret it!

My wife and I have been dreaming of visiting Maine since we were married 31 years ago and we were finally able to make that happen. I had great expectations when I booked. I will just say all of those expectations were exceeded in all aspects. Our stay was perfection! We needed to unplug in a peaceful and tranquil place and this delivered! Karl was an amazing host in every sense, going above and beyond for us during our stay. Grateful we were able to meet him in person. What a wonderful human being. Thank you, Karl! We will definitely be back and have recommended this place to family and friends. Hands down the most rewarding Anniversary Vacation we've ever had.

This is a great cabin located in a nice private setting, with the ocean literally feet from the door. We enjoyed our stay. It was so relaxing and we got to see the full Hunter Moon rising right over the ocean. The cabin was clean and cozy, and the kitchen had everything you could need. We enjoyed day trips to Bar Harbor/Acadia, Schoodic Peninsula, Lubec and Campobello Island. I would rent this property again in a heartbeat.

This place was totally amazing. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The view was fabulous and the home was immaculate. We really enjoyed our stay here.I would highly recommend this place.

What a spot! Host has gone the extra yard in every possible way to make this an inviting place to stay. Thank you so much!
