Chic Farmhse Cottage, private beach, WiFi unlimited streaming/zoom, A/C, 600sf

Blue Hill, Maine, United States

Perfect for social distancing, bright and private, with southwesterly views of the Blue Hill Bay, fabulous furnished, private and covered deck plus a private garden with a fire pit and access to a private beach. The enclosed garden is accented by flowering magnolia, wild raspberry bushes, which you are welcome to pick when in season (late July early August), crabapple trees and hydrangeas, great for relaxing on the Adirondack chairs, nap in the hammock, enjoy the starry Maine night sky, roast marshmallows by the fire pit or dine al fresco at the bistro set. A wooded path to the beach is mere steps away and the cobblestoned parking area accommodates two cars. Being nestled in a corner of the pristine American Legion woods, the property is the perfect setting for wildlife sightings, swimming, kayaking and fishing. Hiking trails are all around, ranging from easy, short and flat to more challenging terrains and elevations.brThe interior is scrupulously appointed with authentic mid-century modern classics mixed with some farmhouse accents. There is a luxuriously comfortable king size bed with high end mattress and a memory foam/green tea infused topper, and high quality percale linens. The apartment is best suited for a couple. Most Maine coastal summer nights are cool, but there is a fan and a/c, which regulates not only the temperature but also the humidity that blows in from the ocean during a few summer days. There is High speed internet (300 Mbps) for unlimited streaming, Direct TV, a bluetooth speaker to play music from your smartphone, tablet or laptop, a small classical guitar for those inclined, binoculars, a chess set, scrabble, dominos and playing cards. A small, eclectic library completes the setting for a leisurely vacation.brbrThe property is two miles away from the quaint Blue Hill village, with a choice of restaurants, two libraries, museums, book stores, wine and cheese shop, gift shops, post office, hospital, two churches and the famous Tradewinds supermarket. Blue Hill is conveniently located for easy access to Stonington, Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island and is served by Bar Harbor Airport (22 miles) and Bangor International Airport (40 miles.) brbrA local business called The Activity Shop, rents kayaks, bikes, canoes, paddle boards, sail boats, wet suits & gear. They offer the option of delivering to your doorstep and picking-up when you are done. More leisurely minded activities exist as well, like puffin tours, moose safaris and bird spotting guided walking tours; if you are interested specifically in the puffin viewing boat tour, you would best be advised to plan (weeks ahead) to check dates for availability. brbrI am usually around for a chat to share ideas for activities that might interest you and answer any questions. I'm always interested in meeting people and learning new things.
