“Escape” to a Waterfront Artist’s Home on Secluded Evergreen Point, Taunton Bay

This place is great! Right on the water and the sunsets are phenomenal. We loved eating dinner and having the sunset right there over the water. Everything was clean and easy to find, our dog loved hanging out on the porch.We did a lot of hikes in Acadia and the weather cooperated. Gorman Mountain and Jacob’s Pond were favorites. Cadillac Mountain View’s are not to be missed.We also did the Acadia Puffin Cruise and I highly recommend it. There are only 20 or so people and we saw puffins and lots of other birds. We also saw lots of seals (mama seals with their babies - so cute). Tricia was the guide and was knowledgeable and super friendly. Book ahead as it fills up quickly. Place was perfect for us (with our teenager) and our Pomsky (she is a small dog, 20 lbs and very well behaved). Our dog got lots of attention and did very well being in a new place. Hope to go back in the future. Host is nice and there were no issues so we didn’t contact him - there was a number of you needed anything for a house manager and the owner. So you’re in good hands.

Thank you for letting us rent your beautiful home. We really enjoyed our stay here while visiting Acadia NP. The views and setup of the house were perfect. We would love to stay here again someday.

Escape is our favorite place to come and relax. It is peaceful and beautiful. Easy to get to Acadia for hiking. Mark is very easy to communicate with. And the sunsets are magnificent!

ESCAPE on Evergreen Point is a lovely, large house. You cannot beat the location just feet away from the bay. Also, it is just north and east of MDI but an easy drive to Acadia. Also an easy drive to the Schoodic Penninsula that we also love. I would rent this property again in a heart-beat!

We loved our stay at “escape”. Beautiful home and location. Private and peaceful but close enough to Acadia and Schoodic. Would absolutely stay again.

This was a wonderful stay for us. Very clean and beautiful home. Even better than the pictures. Peaceful, quiet surroundings. Can’t ask for much more!

Beautiful property!

My family loved our stay at Escape! The house sat right on the water's edge where my kids could watch the change in the tides and search for intertidal creatures during the day and at night, we would sit on the back porch and watch the sunset over the water. The house was clean and had everything we needed for our week away. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great stay! We had a wonderful time exploring the area with our family. There were a few fruit flies in the kitchen.

My family of five had a wonderful time at the property. and exploring the Schoodic Peninsula and seeing the rest of Acadia. We really enjoyed kayaking and taking the canoes out on the bay. Sunsets with a campfire and smores were so relaxing and fun at the end of the day.

We absolutely loved our time at Escape lake house in Maine! The setting was gorgeous and cannot be beat. The view is never the same and we loved watching the changing light on the water. The house is as described in the listing and the primary bedroom and bathroom are great. Note that one of the “bathrooms” is actually in a side entry room with the washer/dryer and extra stove, and is not super private. Also, 2 of the showers are very small stand-up showers. But, that said, for just 2 of us, this was not an issue and the location and views are worth it! Mark sent lots of good info prior to our trip and we contacted him after arrival to report a potential issue that turned out to be nothing. Communication with him was fast and efficient. Overall, we really loved our stay at Escape and we found it to be a great location for exploring Acadia and the Schoodic peninsula. It was also great to just hang at the house and enjoy the wonderful, ever-changing views. Thanks to Mark for sharing Escape with us! We hope to return again soon!

This house is an escape. It has a beautiful view and it is quiet and serene. Anyone staying in the loft needs to come down to the first floor to use the bathroom. Property is approx. 45 mins from Bar Harbor.

Amazing spot! Secluded, beautiful sunsets and loved watching the tide change. We saw seals, eagles and all types of seagulls. Made lobsters multiple times. Our dogs really enjoyed the cove. Such a great spot! Only recommendation would be to note in the listing that the fireplace is “non working” or not for guest use.
