Lakefront Cabin w/ a Private Dock, Firepit & Gorgeous Views

The Hooting Loon

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Leave your cares far behind you when you escape to this quintessential Maine cabin on the shores of Green Lake, where you'll find everything you need to make your stay cozy and memorable. Admire the lakefront view from the sun room as the sun rises each morning, then take the provided canoe or kayak out for a paddle around one of Maine's cleanest glacial lakes. Spend your days jumping off the private dock and your evenings playing board games, gathering around the firepit at sunset, and falling asleep to the sound of the loons.

What's nearby:
If you're bringing your own boat, you can set out from the public boat launch and park at your own private dock, allowing you to spend every day out on the shimmering waters of Green Lake. You'll find every necessity 11 miles south in Ellsworth, with the charming restaurants, cafes, and ice cream shops of Bar Harbor only 20 miles beyond. The Hulls Cove Visitor Center at Acadia National Park is 28 miles south, so you can easily explore the park's stunning trails (the Precipice Trail, the Ocean Path, and the Cadillac Mountain North and South Ridge Trails among them), granite peaks, and sparkling ponds.

Things to know:
Free WiFi
Full kitchen
Please note that this cabin has one true bedroom and two lofts

Parking notes: There is free parking available for 4 vehicles.

This beautiful lake getaway is just enough off 1A that you feel like you are in your own world, but close enough to Bar Harbor and Bangor to explore to your hearts content. Absolutely loved the place. Great for families or couples for a getaway. Excellent retreat for business getaway.

Peaceful
The lake cabin was very peaceful and in a beautiful location. We really enjoyed watching the sunrise and set from the boat dock. We also enjoyed fires in the fire pit at night and morning coffee from the back porch looking out at the fall colors across the lake. Cabin was very clean and well stocked.

Peaceful lakefront
My husband and I had a relaxing stay at the hooting loon on Green Lake. The home was comfortable, nothing luxurious but then again, it’s a Maine lake cabin. We couldn’t figure out the sound on tv so we just embraced the peace and quiet. Printed tv instructions for guests would be nice. We enjoyed sitting out back and enjoying the lake views! Great location close to Ellsworth, Acadia, Bar Harbor, etc. We’d love to return to this gorgeous area!

Love this property.
Excellent spot on the lake! Issues with water could have been handled better. Four days to fix plumbing problem. Local team communicated well first two days then went silent. Would have expected them to check on us. I’ve been to the property 4 times and love it. The lawn chairs we usually used were gone. Bought a couple and left them for the next guest. So, love it and will go back but disappointed in the customer service.

Peaceful Location!
Serene and quiet! A great place to relax and get away from busy schedules and stress. Great kitchen for cooking, beautiful from to view lake, comfy livingroom to gather in. We didn't use the upstairs or loft, but seems like a great space for kids or additional guests. Close enough to Acadia and Bar Harbor shopping. A great getaway location!!

A beautiful stay
We had an incredible time on this property. The lake is beautiful and the water very clean. The owner, Kyle, provided us with all the necessary information to make our stay enjoyable. We rented his boat and visited two beautiful beaches. They are next to each other, but the second one was amazing, and we were alone there. I really recommend this property; I don’t think you can find a better location.

Dreamy
This cabin is attractive, clean, cozy and very well stocked. We traveled early October and enjoyed the views of the lake in the mornings and evenings; sunrises and sunsets, and stargazing at night was tremendous. Even though it was late in the year for them, we were lucky enough to hear loons couple of times. The neighbors were quiet and we enjoyed the silence. We were spending time in Bangor and Bar Harbor, so this location made for a reasonable commute to both, and the town of Ellsworth had all the conveniences we needed. Be aware that one of the rooms is a true loft accessible by a steep ladder only. That was no concern for us but might be for some. I would book this cabin again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful home on beautiful lake!
Such an easy stay, the house has a great kitchen with lots and pans, washer dryer, bathroom towels, soaps and shampoos. And close to the town center of Ellsworth to stock up on groceries for the week. Saw some beautiful sunsets on the lake and would definitely want to book here again!

Hooting Loon on Green Lake
Thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks stay at Hooting Loon. Angel does an awesome job making sure the house is clean and ready. Loved having a kayak, canoe, and paddle board to enjoy the lake. Can't beat the views from the outside seating as well as the screened in porch. Great location; close to Ellsworth and Bangor. Very relaxing vacation.

Cottage was exactly as advertised, Green Lake with the large dock was perfect.
Cottage was exactly as advertised, Green Lake with the large dock was perfect. Beds were all comfortable, the upper loft ladder access was not for the faint of heart but perfectly adequate for older teens and young at heart adults. Kitchen had everything you needed for a wide range of meals. If I could have changed anything; the trash and recycle would have been removed from the shed before our arrival. It contained several trash bags and full recycle containers from previous guests. Not a show stopper. Would go back and stay again. We had multiple kayaking trips around the lake, used the fire pit ant night and watched the Perseids meteor shower off the dock at night. All in all everyone had fun.

Hootin’ good time at the Hooting Loon
Beautiful cabin. Gorgeous lake location Suitable for families as well as romantic couples. We had a lovely time building fires, star-gazing, paddling on the lake, and relaxing. The only downside is that with this serene location, one is a bit removed from Bar Harbor/Acadia/grocery store. BUT DO NOT LET THAT DETER YOU! The drive was easy, pretty, and full of delightful roadside attractions. The cabin came equipped with fishing poles, paddle boards, kayak, and a tiny little beach! I miss it already.
