BEAUTIFUL, FULLY RENOVATED OCEANFRONT COTTAGE WITH AMAZING VIEWS

This adorable cottage is open, light and spacious with incredible ocean views and a private saltwater pond! You can swim or float in the pond, launch a kayak or canoe right on the property. Relax on the large deck to watch the sunset, cook outside on the grill or star gaze at night! Watch the eagles, osprey, and sometimes seals and deer from the deck.

There are two bedrooms with new queen beds and organic bedding on the second floor, one with incredible waterfront views and the second with views out to the woods. We have recently put in large new windows and high ceilings to make rooms feel extremely comfortable. There is also seating in both rooms to comfortably read or have a cup of tea in your own space. The full bathroom is brand new in 2023, with a walk in shower, gorgeous vanity set up and new organic toweling.

The kitchen is remodelled with new appliances and everything you should need to cook daily. There is a beautiful breakfast nook and bar seating to watch the sea out the window as you drink your morning coffee or have an evening glass of wine.

The living room and dining room is open with lots of light, windows and original hardwood floors! The dining room seats 4 to 6, in front of the large windows with an ocean view. There is another small dining area outside on the terrace as well in case you want to eat right on the ocean.

The coveted Hancock Point spot is quiet and relaxing, but close to everything. Groceries, shopping, beaches, restaurants, tennis, sailing, hiking, are all close by!! For a day trip, you can get to Acadia National Park, and Schodic point in about 30 minutes. This house is ready to go for winter rentals as well and is perfect for a cozy winter stay. Cross country skiing in Acadia is a must do!

Please note the house is newly done with mostly white furniture so dogs and small children must be watched carefully if you are coming as a family.

Beautiful Property, Amazing Views
We really enjoyed our stay at this quiet peaceful cottage, and our puppy was in heaven with so much space to run around. The location is convenient to many great restaurants and stores, and Acadia National Park is less than an hour away. The cottage itself had everything we needed (particularly loved the gorgeous views of the water, and the luxurious shower after long days of hiking:). Cora is an amazing host - very responsive whenever we had a question, and she gave excellent recommendations on nearby places to visit. We'd recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to visit Maine!

Charming Coastal Cottage
The only thing we didn’t like about our stay at this dreamy little house.. was that it had to end! This was our favorite vacation rental we’ve ever stayed at, the property, location, decor, comfort- all top notch, and it was absolutely spotless! We could not have enjoyed it more, so thankful for our time at this little haven and hope we get to come back some day!

We loved this house & beautiful property! The view is amazing & the cottage lovely. We spent a week exploring the area of Maine and it was so nice to return each day to this magical place. The deer & birds were fun to watch. Restarants in this area were wonderful! Pond hike is the best & only 5 minutes away. We would love to come back someday!

Beautiful, comfortable cottage in a great location
This is a stunning home, perfect for a group of 4. There’s nothing like sleeping with the windows open with the gentle breezes and sounds of the bay below. And there is so much to do and see right around the home and within an hours drive. We enjoyed great adventures in nature, delicious seafood and true relaxation in this beautiful, comfortable cottage. Hope to return someday!

Nice but small
This is a nice small home. If you are a tall person or a bigger person I would say this is not a place for you. The upstairs bedrooms have slanted ceilings and I found myself ducking a lot. Also says it is has air conditioning but not through the vents. There is a unit midway on wall to the upstairs to cool the 2 bedrooms and bathroom. Forget about shutting doors to rooms if you want to stay cool. The bathroom door also does not latch,therefore my Velcro dog could always just lean on it to open it up and come on in. The chairs in living room are made for smaller people and the television is small. No blinds on windows upstairs so you can’t get dressed in your room. I booked this house for four adults. I am so grateful my other couple couldn’t come because it would have been a nightmare! I’m a bit critical because this is one of the most expensive homes I’ve had to pay for on VRBO and probably the least comfortable. The owner is very responsive and definitely aims to please. The family is super nice. The owner is next door and her mother is across the street.This is a very nice little cottage. I just know that if I had this information before, I probably would have stayed somewhere else.

Perfect Maine vacation
The house was even more charming & quaint in person! We really enjoyed the views and found it to be conveniently located to our vacation activities including Acadia National Park & Bar Harbor. The host was always quick to respond to any questions and we would definitely rent this house again if we were planning to revisit the area!

Peaceful Vacation Cottage
This vacation cottage is beautifully appointed, the owners have great taste. The location was quiet and peaceful. We loved going on walks along a nearby beach at low tide, reading on the comfy patio furniture, gazing at the stars or the misty bay from the bedroom window. The easy drives to Bar Harbor / Acadia or Schoodic Peninsula make for pleasant trips. Owners were responsive and kind (fresh flowers!). We really appreciated being able to have our dogs with us. It's a great spot for a deeply relaxing vacation.

Property and views were excellent!
My wife and I (along with our dog) recently stayed at the cottage. The house itself was very nice and clean and had everything we needed. The lawn provided some nice space for our dog to run. But the best part in our opinion was the beautiful deck with views of the ocean. When we were at the cottage we spent most of our time out there. Cora was also extremely responsive, communicative, and helpful both before and during our stay. We fully recommend this spot and would absolutely stay here again!

Serenity in Maine
We had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous property. Waking up each morning to a cup of coffee on the deck overlooking the amazing bay view was a highlight for sure. It was so peaceful and quiet and we saw a ton of wildlife - deer, foxes, seals, herons and more all graced us with their presence during our stay. There's some neat history behind the house, as told through old photographs neatly displayed in the home. The property in nestled in between Acadia and the Schoodic peninsula so we had easy access to both for exploring and hiking. The hosts we very attentive and accommodating! We highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a secluded Maine hideaway!

Pleasantly Pleasing. Puppy approved.
Restored cottage overlooking the bay was a welcome treatment while we traversed the trials and tribulations of chemo with the love of my life. Immaculately finished, this home provided us a welcome respite sorely needed from Tennessee. Cora, Elizabeth and Pelican were the perfect hosts and provided us all the information we needed during our stay. Moonpie loved the walks to the shore and down the many less traveled roads adjoining us.

Serene Getaway
This adorable bungalow in Hancock is on a beautiful waterfront setting without the tourist hoards that seem to be near Bar Harbor. Great location- close enough to parks and cities to enjoy them for the day and escape back to the privacy of our cottage. The home is immaculate, and the owner has outfitted it with natural fiber linens ( the beds were super comfy) and great smelling biodegradable soaps. I’m looking forward to a second stay!

Beautiful cottage— quiet and peaceful!
My husband and I absolutely loved our short getaway to Cora’s quaint cottage by the water. We brought along our sweet 5th born at just 6 weeks and all really enjoyed soaking in this amazing quiet retreat. The view is just breathtaking, we walked down to the water’s edge for sunrise and wished we’d had another day to just lazily enjoy the cottage and property but we went into Bar Harbor, ate tons of great food locally (thanks to Cora for so many recommendations) and hiked in Acadia. The house was incredibly clean, comfortable and cozy— the beds and pillows/linens were the best! Fell in love with walking outside the cottage into the crisp air and breathing in the overwhelming balsam fir smell in the air— just amazing!

Amazing, as always
This is the third year in a row we've been lucky enough to stay at this beautiful home in this incredible location. The pictures don't do justice to how charming the house is and how peaceful the area is. Our dog, who has joined us every year on our annual Acadia vacation, is almost 13 now and is very comfortable here. She enjoys snoozing on the deck listening to the ocean, and watching all the birds that stop by. Cora is a wonderful host who is always reachable if we need anything. We couldn't imagine staying anywhere else when we're visiting Acadia National Park.
