The Studio was originally built by our family in the early 1960s, but has seen some thoughtful renovations with many modern conveniences including a full renovation in 2020. Open floor plan with sitting area, kitchen, and Bedroom with a queen bed. Full Bathroom with shower only. Hi Speed WiFi, of course! No cable TV but there is a TV and DVD player.

There are so many tourist attractions in the area it would be impossible to name them all. Enjoy all the amenities of nearby Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor with just a 25 minute drive (approximately 3 miles away by water). Northeast and Southwest Harbor and Blue Hill are all close by.. The main commercial area is Ellsworth (15 minutes drive) with everything you could ever need. There are numerous music festivals throughout the summer, excellent restaurants, and even a cinema for rainy days. Fun attractions include several scenic flight and whale watch companies, professional kayak tours, logging shows, outstanding golf courses as well as miniature golf, and much more. Blunt's Pond is a beautiful and clean spring-fed swimming pond about a 12 minute easy walk on the woods path and of course you can brave the Atlantic on the shore. Lamoine Beach is a couple miles down the road as is the Lamoine State Park.

Our wonderful compound has been in our family for four generations and is located on the east end of Berry's Cove with great views of Frenchman’s Bay and Mt. Desert Island along with direct access to the shore across the front lawn. With a southwest exposure, you’ll love the bright sunny days and gorgeous sunsets. You’ll be surrounded by lots of wonderful wildlife, including eagles, loons, herons, and many other sea and shore birds.

Minimum rental is 4 days.

Pets: We do not accept pets of any kind. Please do not ask for an exception to this rule.

Please Note: The Studio is on 12 acres of shorefront property that also includes our winter and summer homes. Please see winter pictures for clear views of the homes.

Lobsters are available just a few minutes back up the road and Dave Herrick will cook them for you. Just call and they will be ready when you arrive. We ask guests not to cook shellfish in the cottage as it always boils over and gets into the stove which then has to be dismantled and cleaned. No one wants to sleep in a room with old smelly lobster odor. We do have a outdoor boiler ring and cooker on demand for those who want to cook their own.

    Perfect, serene, private and completely lovely. Fredi is an excellent host and it was exactly what we hoped for to relax and soak up Maine. The quiet peacefulness of the bay was idyllic. The soft pine needle path to Blunts Pond was a daily joy. We’d love to return.

    We had a lovely stay at this cottage. The best feature of this lodging is the location in front of a serene cove with wonderful views of the ocean and land across it, surrounded by trees and wildlife. You can see many different bird species and bald eagles. The location is just a short distance to Lamoine State Park, beach, and Acadia. The inside was comfortable and very functional. Fredi was a pleasure to talk with. We would stay there again.

    My wife and I spent the weekend at The Studio. It was a perfect base point for adventures in Acadia, Bar Harbor, and SW Harbor. We enjoyed catching up with our host and spending time on the porch enjoying the cool weather & wildlife.

    The setting is beautiful, even magnificent, and peaceful. The Studio is a lovely, simple roomy cabin well furnished for sleeping comfortably, cooking indoors and out, eating and lounging and simply taking in the beauty. Hot water was plentiful and all appliances worked! Freddie was a most cordial and friendly host--not at all intrusive but quicklly responsive to questions and specific needs (even supplied an extra (third) pillow and a yoga mat we couldn't bring with us) and was happy to share his knowledge about the local area. When the old Weber grill finally bit the dust, he had a new one fully assembled in a day. We were most pleased with our stay and would happily return.

    Had a wonderful, relaxing stay at the small cottage in Lamoine. Fred was a very accommodating host, friendly and had everything we needed for a comfortable home away from home. Quiet, great view of the water and wildlife, comfy bed for a great night’s sleep! The cabin was ideally located for easy driving to Acadia and other sites in the area. His recommendations for great restaurants, shopping, activities and sights were valuable as well!

    My husband and I loved staying at The Studio. The Cottage was charming, had a beautiful view of the water, and was clean and well stocked with everything we might need. Our hosts were helpful and knowledgeable. We loved our morning coffee on the porch overlooking the water, listening to the many birds nearby. We saw Bald Eagles, Osprey, Gulls and Loons in addition to many song birds. Sunsets were spectacular and the full moon over the cove was amazing. We slept some of the best sleep we've had outside our own home on the comfortable bed. The cottage was quiet and outside the crazy traffic of MDI/Acadia National Park yet close to everything by taking the back roads that bypass Ellsworth. Everything was perfect and we are already hoping to return for a longer stay next year.

    We were so happy to return this year to this beautiful little slice of paradise on Frenchmen Bay. Fredi and Aja were the perfect hosts and provided us with all that we needed. So wonderful to be on vacation in such a relaxing place and so close to Arcadia and Bar Hatbor, yet far enough away to unwind and appreciate the beauty of the place. The cabin is so cozy and peaceful and has everything we needed, including the porch where we enjoyed our coffee in the morning looking out at the bay and hearing all the sounds of nature. We will definitely be back again!

    Hayley writes: My wife and I recently stayed at the most enchanting cottage by the sea, and it was truly a magical experience. We had waited five years to finally celebrate our honeymoon and I can’t think of a more perfect way than what we got. Freddi was the ideal host! From the moment we got there he was welcoming, giving us a tour and helping with our bags, as well as friendly, communicative and meeting us where our needs were. It truly felt like a home away from home and a family member away from family. And the view!! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking views of the ocean, the feeling of being tucked away in the woods, and the serene, peaceful atmosphere. The cottage itself is charming and cozy, with everything you need. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the comfortable furnishings to the well-equipped kitchen, making our stay incredibly comfortable and enjoyable. Waking up to the sound of waves crashing and enjoying our morning coffee on the private deck overlooking the water was pure bliss. The sunsets were equally mesmerizing, providing the perfect backdrop for relaxing evenings. The location is ideal, offering both seclusion and convenience. We were only 20 minutes from Acadia National Park and 10 minutes from the local lobster man (highly recommended and his info is provided!). If you're looking for a serene escape with stunning ocean views and a great location, this cottage by the sea is a gem!

    Upon arrival we were greeted by the owner who then promptly gave us a tour and even helped us get our luggage unloaded. He was accessible if needed, but also gave us space. The Studio Cottage exceeded our expectations in every way and we look forward to renting again in the future.
