Winter Harbor, Maine
A perfect vacation home for those wanting both privacy & nearby access to several coastal villages. Perched atop a hill overlooking Frenchman's Bay, Bar Harbor & Cadillac Mountain. You will enjoy this quiet retreat with majestic views that wrap around much of the house. Short drives take you to several coastal villages, Schoodic Point, Bar Harbor, and Acadia National Park, with it's miles of shoreline to enjoy. WiFi and satellite tv included. This lovely home can easily accommodate large groups. Very enjoyable!
Also nearby are art festivals, concerts, hiking, restaurants, shopping, fishing, golfing, swimming, and much more. This is Downeast Maine in style!
I keep coming back to this spot. It's worth it for the view alone.
This house far exceeded our expectations. The kitchen was clean and well stocked. The great room was awesome with all the windows looking out on the water, islands and lobster traps. We enjoyed the fireplace on cool evenings. The bedrooms were large and had private bathrooms, and the beds were very comfortable. The host was great! She answered all our questions and gave wonderful advice. We would love to stay here again!
What a wonderful site for a Maine vacation! An ever-changing panorama out the bank of windows. Tides changing, cruise ships entering and leavning Bar Harbor, clous play over the mountains. Strongly recommend.
Absolutely beautiful
The house and views were amazing. Close to Winter Harbor but still isolated and quiet. I highly recommend this place.
Our first night treated us to a beautiful sunset and views of Bar Harbor across the bay. Conveniently located close to the Schoodic Peninsula and about an hour from the popular sites in Acadia National Park. Huge windows in the open kitchen/dining/living area gave us views that went on forever.
Absolutely fabulous views!!! Needs a larger hot water tank for sure! We enjoyed our stay for the week!
We spent 6 nights here and had a fantastic time. The views from the house are absolutely stunning. The house is huge with lots of room for everyone to spread out and do their own thing. We have nothing but positive things to say and would definitely recommend anyone to stay here!
Beautiful home, needed some TLC. TV’s didn’t work. Many pots and pans needed cleaning. Fireplace needed fixing, but was taken care of. LOVED the views!!! Driveway is difficult. Overall, with a good scrubbing, and clean closets it would be perfect!! ?
Breathtaking views! Worth the trip up that driveway! Lol.
Stunning views. The house needs a little TLC. Maybe a little extra cleaning of floors and windows. Kitchen was under stocked. Old pots and pans. Only 5 dinner knives? BUT — THE VIEW MAKES UP FOR THE SHORT COMINGS.
Our family had an amazing experience at this lovely house. It's winning feature is the huge wall of windows that allow about a180° view of the Frenchmans Bay and surrounding waterways. Also a full view of Cadillac mountain. We were in awe when the fog blew away shortly after our arrival and gifted us with the view of lovely Maine ocean scenes and the mind blowing sunset following. Every evening was a toss up on whether we should watch the sunset from the house or take the short drive to Schoodic point to see it there. We enjoyed watching the lobster boats in the morning and were able to see them pull their traps. Also got to see a cruise ship pass by on its way into Bar Harbor. The house was very spacious and more than served our needs as a family of 7. We cooked alot of meals at the house and had sufficient cooking supplies. The landscaping around the house is largely left in its native condition, so you may find some wild berries very close to the back door. This also means that there is no grass as such for yard games, however our children enjoy photography and nature for which there are abundant opportunity. We were kindly allowed an early check in which we were happy to take advantage of! Also the owner was able to provide us with a full tank of propane when we discovered the one we were using was empty. I would say that the washcloth supply was on the low side for our family, but since a washer and dryer were available, we just ran a daily load, and made out ok. We appreciated the quietness of Winter Harbor and drove to Schoodic Peninsula daily to see the awesome beauty of the wild, rocky Maine oceanfront. Did do the approx. 1 hour drive into Bar Harbor one day, just to experience the shops and the drive up Cadillac mountain. This house will always be a wonderful memory and we will recommend it to our friends!
Beautiful home with breathtaking views of Frenchman Bay and Mt. Desert island. All of the rooms are good sizes… very comfortable. The only problem we had with six of us there was we frequently ran out of hot water. The owner was very receptive to addressing and said there were problems in the past.
Majestic Views is an amazing house with views second to Cadillac Mt. The house is modern, clean, convenient to get around and was perfect for 5 sisters to come together and enjoy the week.
Ideal location, especially if you like being slightly off the beaten path. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are only an hour’s drive. Schoodic Peninsula is 15 minutes away where you can hike and ride bikes to your heart’s content. Of course, you can always just sit at the house and soak in the magnificent views of the bay and Cadillac Mountain.
