Acadia National Park ocean front & garden cottages
Both our houses are designed in the contemporary style. We used custom made decor and cherry tree furniture. A lot of windows, glass doors, bright and open space are inside the house. It is very quiet outside. You most likely will be alone at the beach. We share the whole sea cove with only one neighboring house. It is a pure paradise if you want to live on the beach on your own and within minutes of driving to the main local attractions. You'll be amazed of our botanical garden and landscape.

Private Waterfront Home with Kayaks and Firepit
Retreat to your own coastal oceanfront paradise, where each day begins with breathtaking views. A private boardwalk leads to your secluded beach — perfect for morning strolls, exploring tidal pools, or launching kayaks into sparkling waters. Evenings bring fireside marshmallows under the stars with waves as your soundtrack. Whether you seek adventure with scenic drives to Acadia National Park or quiet mornings with coffee, sea breezes, and seabirds, this is where comfort meets Maine’s coast.

The Maine Getaway - Lakefront with Beach
If you are looking for a place to get away and relax, our house on Molasses Pond may be a good fit for you/your family. It is a hidden gem down a dirt road away from hustle and bustle. Peace and quiet is what you’ll find, along with a gorgeous view. It’s a great place for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, grilling, fishing, and laying on the hammock. We try to provide you with all the necessities you may need and are happy to answer any questions. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Beachfront Guest Cottage - Year-round Hot Tub!
Our cozy guest cottage has easy beachfront/kayak/canoe access, and is located very close (within walking distance at low tide) to the public boat launch for larger boats. Great location to explore Deer Isle, Acadia (approx 1hr), Castine (45m), and the Bangor (1hr) area.
