Ocean View Cedar Chalet/ 10 min to Acadia

Cedar Chalet is a 3 bdrm / 3 ba house on a private, wooded lot overlooking Frenchmen's Bay. Exceptionally large windows offer water views from almost every room. The large deck is a quiet, relaxing spot to watch the sunset at the end of the day or enjoy coffee in the morning with the eagles flying overhead.

Ocean access is via a private boardwalk we share with our log cabin, a quick 3 min walk downhill. From here you may see seals feeding in the bay. Kayaks can be launched from here.

The house has an open concept with kitchen, living room and dining area together. It is a great spot for families and friends to spend time together. The house underwent a large renovation including a new kitchen, living area, bathroom, bedroom and deck in 2021.

There are 3 bedrooms. The master bedroom is on the second floor and has a spectacular view of the water. on the main floor, the bedroom can be set up as two twin extra long beds or converted to a king size bed, The main floor bedroom is perfect for those with mobility issues or children. Other than the three steps from the driveway to the porch, all the common spaces are located on the main floor. Even the lower level has water views through the large windows downstairs! A second master bedroom with a king size bed is here along with a second living room that has a premium queen size sleeper sofa when extra sleeping space is needed.

7 day minimum from 5/28-10/26(Saturday - Saturday).

We have an outdoor security camera located near the driveway.

We also own the log cabin (the sole other house on the road). It is a great opportunity for two larger families to be close by and enjoy a very peaceful, nature rich vacation- Bar Harbor Log Cabin #2588174. It is a location like no other.

Cedar Chalet - a place to truly unwind, the antidote to busy lives.

The house itself was absolutely incredible! Super clean, plenty of space, everything we could have needed and more. On the last day of our trip the weather cleared up just enough for us to watch the beautiful sunset!

Great Property
The Chalet was a great place to stay. The Host was ultra-accommodating and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The location is quiet and close enough to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The best part is looking through the giant windows leading onto the deck overlooking the water and going down to explore the shore.

Wonderful place to relax
There home has an absolutely amazing view and is very comfortable. It was very clean and was the perfect home base for me, my husband and two toddlers(1 and 3) to unwind after hiking, going to the beach and finding all the local playgrounds. They also loved running around the deck and playing with the toy train track. It is about 20 mins from Acadia but there were a few road closures which might have caused this and there are a lot of food/activities close by(within a 5-10 min drive). I would highly recommend this as a quiet, relaxing get away

Invigorating!
We had a wonderful time in the chalet, first as a couple and then enjoyed it with friends over the weekend. Very comfortable. The amazing view of the ocean was a delight by day and the stars were breath taking to behold during the night. Hoping to go back in the summertime.

Wonderful stay at Cedar Chalet
This is a terrific property. Very clean, the most well supplied kitchen I’ve ever rented (extra paper towels, plenty of dish washer pods, every spice you could ask for etc), lovely first level master suite, larch porch overlooking the bay with furniture and a grill, laundry detergent, extra TP, plenty of towels, large bottles of shampoo…all little things that make SUCH a big difference. The location is 20 minutes from basically anywhere on the island and very convenient to Bar Harbor and the main grocery store on the island. Try Sweet Peas cafe a few minutes away! Jaime is a very communicative host. Stop looking and BOOK IT!

Thanksgiving get away
Jamie is as great of a host as you’ll find. The cabin is phenomenal, it’s clean as can be and is in a very secluded area. We felt at home the entire nine days we were there. Jamie provided us with all kinds of information about the island, restaurants and hike’s around MDI. I’m not so sure that the pictures do justice to the beauty of this place. We hope to come back next year.

Absolutely beautiful place
We truly enjoyed our stay at 32 Tree Top. The location was a beautiful hide-a-way with dense forest and lush green moss but also a wonderful view of the water front. Only a few minutes from downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park making this a perfect place for us. We thank you for being so kind and making sure our stay was very enjoyable. Would love to do it all over again.

All communication was first rate! From pre-stay to departure questions, Jamie was fast and helpful. The property was a perfect stay for family to enjoy one another's company. There is no want for any amenity at The Cedar Chalet. It was a wonderful location for our off season hiking, exploration, and local dining.

Perfect stay!
This beautiful home in a incredible setting was the perfect place for my family and I to take a relaxing winter vacation. The house came with everything we could have needed - including tons of toys that kept my 2 year old nephew busy (which obviated the need for my mom to pack a wooden train set in her carry-on, haha). Jamie, the host, was communicative and super helpful throughout our stay- especially when bad weather was predicted for the tail end of our week. Highly recommend this property for anyone traveling to Bar Harbor/Acadia!

Excellent View, Adorable Chalet
We very much enjoyed our stay. The views of the bay were wonderful. The chalet is very clean, comfortable, and well-decorated. The host is fantastic and provides great communication. We plan to stay here again when we return to Maine. Access to the beach is a short walk and the beach is truly lovely; the hill to get there is steep, so maybe not accessible for folks with mobility issues. I wouldn't recommend the chalet for folks with toddlers or infants because of the steep interior stairs and balconies, but it was great for our teen and preteen.
