Our modern log cabin has stunning views of Frenchmen's Bay in a very private, serene location. With 3 bedrooms (2 king bedrooms and one large loft (queen and twin size beds) /2 baths it is the perfect spot for a family or two to enjoy together. The main level has a bedroom and bathroom so those with mobility issues will be able to navigate the house after ascending 3 small steps up the front porch. Whether you enjoy sitting on the back deck, by the fire pit, or walking along the shoreline, there are many picturesque places to spread out and relax.

Located down a long, private, tree lined road that is directly on the ocean it is the perfect place to sit back and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. In the morning it is nice to sip a cup of coffee on the deck and watch the local lobsterman harvest his catch out in the bay. You might see one of the eagles or osprey swoop down to catch a fish or ride the thermals over the house. Seal may be seen from time to time sunning on a rock just of the shore or chasing fish for a meal. Deer may be seen grazing around the woods and marmot are seen at times.

The shoreline is a great spot to explore the tide pools and hunt for sea glass at low tide. Feel free to launch kayaks and paddleboards from the beach. You can bring your own or they can be rented on the island. We own the only other house on the street (more than 400 ft uphill from the cabin) that shares the beach access.

Just 10 mins from Acadia, 15 min from downtown Bar Harbor, and 10 minutes to the quiet side of the island, it is a quick trip to most places on the island. There are many quaint lobster pounds and restaurants within a five to eight minute drive of the house including the top ranked lobster pound, The Travelin Lobster. Local favorites also include Sweet Peas and Mainely Meats. All have great outdoor dining.

Like lobster We have all you need to cook up a great lobster dinner at the house.

The log cabin has been a loved vacation spot by families for 25 years. We bought the cabin in November 2021 and renovated both bathrooms as well as completely re-decorated the whole house. We also own Bar Harbor Cedar Chalet just up the hill from this house.

We rent Saturday to Saturday from June- October 12 except Saturday 6/27- Sunday July 5th (8 nights). Please reach out to me directly to book that week. Otherwise we have a 4 night minimum due to Bar Harbor’s town regulations for vacation rental houses.

We have a firm no pet policy so all guests will be comfortable in the house. No parties or smoking as well.

We have an outdoor camera by the front door that looks at the driveway.

    An amazing property - comfortable and cozy, beautiful view and Jamie was the best host! She thought of everything to make her cabin feel like our second home, and communicating with her was so easy - thanks Jamie, for a great week!

    Home was exactly as described. All the amenities of home except with gorgeous views and perfect location for exploring. Our granddaughter was thrilled with tots and books for her age. The hosts were very attentive and responsive. Everything was clean and comfortable.

    Such a beautiful and peaceful home on the water. Stocked with everything you could need for a relaxing getaway! We traveled with our 1 year old and things like the bathtub, travel crib and small high chair really made life easier. Jamie was also so wonderful and responsive, and shared lots of great recommendations for places to eat and things to do!

    The house could not possibly be more perfect.First, the location: The property is situated only 10 to 15 minutes from downtown Bar Harbor, so fine dining and shopping are a quick car ride away. But the cabin itself is secluded and quiet, located in a breathtakingly beautiful setting with gorgeous sunsets. It’s great to be able to enjoy the amenities of the town, but still be able to escape the crowds to such a lovely setting. Outstanding hiking is also available minutes away in Acadia National Park.The cabin itself is comfortable and well appointed. The kitchen has everything that a chef could want for dinners at home. The living room is cosy and comes with a fireplace. Overlooking the water, the deck has Adirondack chairs, a dining table and a top of the line grill. Everything is meticulously clean, with plentiful linens and paper products provided. Finally, communication with the owner was outstanding. She was readily available during the stay and checked in several times to make sure everything was going smoothly. We had absolutely no issues during our visit.In summary, I cannot imagine a better place to stay in this area. We have already booked for next year.

    Stayed on the island for 4 nights and LOVED the location of this cabin. It was perfect for the 7 of us. Super private and quiet. Well stocked kitchen. Very easy to get to everything. Host was amazing. The kids loved exploring the tide pools at low tide. (Recommend bringing some boots) Beautiful views. Will rent again next time we are in the area.

    I recently stayed at this property and it exceeded all of my expectations! This home was spotless, well-equipped, and had all the comforts needed for a relaxing getaway. The location was perfect-close to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private. We especially enjoyed the outdoor space, with incredible views and a comfortable seating area on the deck as well as around a fire pit. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay. We will be back!

    Our family of 6 stayed in this lovely log cabin at the end of June 2024. We enjoyed the beautiful view of the water and access to the same. We were able to use the home as an easy base for all the Bar Harbor activities that we had planned. Definitely recommend!
