BEAUTIFUL OCEANFRONT COTTAGE WITH AMAZING WATER VIEWS & ACCESS

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. Also, while we do offer A.C.it is with heat pumps so if you are looking for a very strong air conditioned place, we do not recommend our cottage! It is perfect for anyone wanting to sleep with the windows open and enjoy the sounds of the water right outside and a cool ocean breeze.

Wonderful cottage
This was the nicest little cottage. The view is gorgeous and the street is quiet and safe. We stayed here and visited Acadia National Park. We loved that we could bring our pup with us. It was a very comfortable, cozy, place to stay and we would stay again if we made the trip back to Maine.

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.

Perfect Maine Cottage
We loved everything about this home. The water front setting, the views from the deck, the layout of the updated home. If was close enough to Acadia and Bar Harbor for day trips but away from the all the traffic and crowds. There are several great local Hancock restaurants and bars to enjoy . We hope to return !!

Beautiful, quiet cottage
Our family of four + dog had a wonderful stay at this quaint cottage in Hancock. Cora was very helpful and communicative. The setting is just gorgeous and we enjoyed eating out on the deck, playing with the dog in the yard, or swimming in the ocean/tidal pond. The location is convenient to MDI, Bar Harbor, and Acadia. A great family vacation!

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!

Lovely home in a beautiful location. The house was comfortable and well decorated, including fresh flowers in every room! The landscape was full of flowers and the view of the bay from the deck was fantastic. We explored Acadia and the harbor towns as well as the local sights including Tidal Falls and local Preserve trails. We would definitely return!

Summer Getaway
We drove from Iowa to Maine to stay in this lovely cottage, and it was worth every mile. It’s located in a secluded area but still in close proximity to all the local sites, including Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, and Schoodic Peninsula. Grocery and restaurants are also nearby. You can’t beat the views and relaxing vibes of the area. Highly recommend!

Magical Maine
My friend and I had an amazing girls weekend at this beautiful cottage! The views were stunning, the house was so charming and Cora was a wonderful host. The location was central to everything we wanted to do in Bar Harbor and Acadia and the house was also perfect for a lazy rainy day at the cottage. Couldn’t recommend it more.

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.

Off season wonder
We had a wonderful time here. There was three of us (and our dog) staying in the house. It’s just as described and what we needed. We were a close drive to Acadia National Park. It was a quiet neighborhood. On the clear nights, we could see so many stars. We saw the Milky Way right above our heads. Having the washing machine and dryer was very convenient as well.

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!

Relaxing and perfect stay with a beautiful view
I was looking for a relaxing getaway with my two dogs for my birthday and I fell in love with this area two years ago when I visited. This property is beautiful and the furniture/decorations and amenities were as perfect as they could be. From the cute historical pictures on the wall to all the quaint comforts this property offered was just what anyone would need. Waking up every morning to the beautiful view of the ocean didn’t hurt either! The host also provided recommendations for activities and restaurants that we took the time to see. She was also very accommodating and let us stay an additional day because I was going to be driving to New Hampshire where they just received all the flooding. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Perfect Maine Getaway
We’ve never been to Maine before, and this cottage was everything we envisioned the perfect Maine cottage to be! It was so beautiful in every which way~ the location, the grounds, the home, and host Cora. Everything was spotlessly clean, beautiful and welcoming. We arrived later in the evening to the lights warmly lighting the cottage and fresh flowers throughout. Cora checked in with us to make sure we were settled and to see if we needed anything. This cottage is perfectly located; tucked far enough away for peace and tranquility and close enough to all the many activities in the area. We spent our time in Acadia and Bar Harbor and it was so nice to come back to our beautiful spot. The sunset, sunrise and stars were incredible. This is a perfect place for a couple or small family for a true Maine getaway. We highly recommend it!

An Incredible Beautiful & Memory filled week in August!
The best overall rental house we’ve ever stayed in!! The newly renovated, beautifully appointed and decorated house is so cozy and perfectly situated for ocean and sunrise views as well as stargazing that we did not want to leave!! The gardens and landscaping are so lovely and thoughtful garden arrangements were placed all throughout the house! Birdwatching was plentiful and quaint walks down the meadow pathway and through the woods to a little beach were charming. Hours were spent on the decks having meals, chatting and enjoying late afternoons gazing out at the gorgeous views! Great location for getting to our favorite lobster lunch spot in Corea and hiking through Schoodic. Everything you need is in the house and Cora is so quick to respond to messages and so easy and nice to deal with. We will definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit the area!! Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven and labor of love with all of us! What a gem — well done!!!

Incredible!
I would give this 10 stars if I could! The home is breathtaking- updated, clean, and modern with a peaceful, antique ambience to place you right into a Barbara Cooney book- the way a Maine vacation should feel. Our family truly had the best time. My boys loved going down to the old rail tracks to make their obstacle course every day. We planned to be in Acadia for most of our trip but they would have been happy to spend their entire vacation exploring the waterfront! The drive to Acadia was about 45- 1hr each way depending on where you were going. There are also tide pools near the house to see starfish and seals, and at night there are a million stars to see. We were also graciously allowed to bring our pup, which was truly a gift for our family. Checkin and correspondence with the owners was nothing but a pleasant experience, I could have chatted with Elizabeth for hours! One of the best parts about this vrbo is that there was absolutely no checkout instructions required of you. No stripping the beds, loading the dishwasher, take out the trash- nothing. It was just peaceful from the moment you walked through the door until the moment you drove away. It's a very special place to rent from and if we visit Acadia again I will plan it around this home's availability! Thank you Cora!

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!
