Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Come, relax, and enjoy true peace and beauty.

This cute as a button 2 bedroom 1 bath, 1200 sq/foot log cabin, is located in a private setting on 2.1 acres of wooded land. A master bedroom with king-size bed on the main floor, and a large loft with two full beds, above; a queen-size pull-out sofa bed in living room; linens supplied. Spacious main floor, with area encompassing living-room, dining-room, and kitchen, in an L-shaped layout. Large windows for natural light to stream in, propane gas heating system with ceiling fan. Large bathroom with shower and tub; access to which is through both master bedroom or living-room. Modern appliances and cookware in kitchen; plenty of counter-top and kitchen utensils with which to create a feast, or a snack. Full basement with washer and dryer. Screened-in porch at west-end of house (access from living-room), furnished with wooden lounging chairs, facing the harbor, 90 feet from water's edge; a short walk through gorgeously gnarled mossy spruce, and you'll have 340 feet of water frontage to enjoy. In backyard is a gas grill and a charcoal grill. Explore each nook and cranny of rocky coastline, or find your spot and watch the tide flow in and out. Spectacular sunsets are yours to behold every evening. Lay out on the flat grassy lawn and watch the clouds and bald eagles pass overhead, as the bouquet of garden flowers bob like buoys in the fresh-salted coastal breezes.

Peaceful, Perfect!
What a perfect Maine hideaway this property is; exactly what we sought for our family trip. The cottage is a "quintessential Maine," log structure finished in knotty pine, beautifully decorated and appointed. The Hosts, Dennis and Helen, have thoughtfully provided everything and more that is needed for a week of exploring the area or relaxing and cooking fabulous fresh seafood meals. They had even, knowing we were looking forward to cooking fresh lobster, set out a large steaming pot and utensils for our preparation. They have provided all the maps, books and brochures you will need to explore, parks, trails, and Downeast gems to see and to really know Downeast Maine. Chipman's Wharf for the freshest seafood; Ray's Meats for an old-fashioned butchery; bakeries and restaurants in Milbridge and nearby. Situtated just a few miles from downtown Milbridge, in the pine woods, with seating and firepit at the shore and a close-up view of Narraguagus Bay. Barbecue a meal or just sit and watch birds, sealife and lobster boats plying the waters. Many hiking trails nearby to enjoy - Pigeon Hill, Petit Manaan views, McClellan Park; Winterharbor (cute village and ferry to Mt. Desert Island), Schoodic Peninsula. Also easy trips of an hour or less to Acadia NP, Machias (Yes, Helen's does have the most wonderful wild blueberry pie) and beyond. But "coming home" to this VRBO was truly comforting and SO peaceful we hated to leave.

Super Stay
We felt at home here. LOVED the solitude. We were close enough to enjoy the area, yet loved just relaxing on the porch or having a fire by the water. We've gradually moved further north from Bar Harbor and just love it. Looking forward to returning. Great owners!!!

Idyllic retreat
What a wonderful stay we had at this property. All the amenities are pitch perfect for us and the location and area are what we always look for in a vacation home. It is a short drive to hiking, kayaking, as well as groceries. The screened porch makes any weather tolerable. We find complete relaxation here. You will not be disappointed.

Cute, Quiet Cabin in the Woods
We found this cabin to be the most well appointed of any vacation rental we have ever stayed at. Dennis and Helen are wonderful hosts who call to make sure your stay is perfect. The quintessential Maine cabin to unwind and relax at.

Lovely stay
We had a great stay at the Magees’ cabin on Bar Island. Dennis called after we arrived to make sure we were settling in okay. Their cabin is so comfortable- kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals, screen porch was great for relaxing any time. Lots of personal touches made it very welcoming. We enjoyed visiting the rocks and watching the tides, seagulls, shore birds and lobster boats, and walking on the island road. We visited local towns and businesses (recommend Ray’s Meat Market, Chipman’s Wharf, the Knotty Lobster, Robertson’s Sea Tours), and Schoodic Point. The Magees provide lots of suggestions for things to see and do. Great value, so glad we found this one!

Beautiful Cottage on the water!
We feel as if the photos do not capture how amazing this place is! Beautiful, relaxing location. Tons of crabs in the tide pools for the kids to find. All of the necessities and a well equipped kitchen. Away from the hustle and bustle of Acadia NP, while still capturing what Maine is about! We ate lobster every day we were there, and enjoyed being in the small town of Milbridge. Hosts were great, and communicated with us and answered any questions we had.

Great location
This property is in a great location. We went north and found things to do. It’s only an hour from Bar Harbor and Acadia. We did quite a bit of hiking and it was close. Loved the Petit Manan hike. Bed was very comfortable and it was quiet and peaceful.

Felt like being welcomed home. Beautiful property. Beautiful home. The Magees were very pleasant to talk to and readily available if needed, though they have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. Such a relaxing place to be and we were truly blessed to have the opportunity. We spent most of our time down by the water watching the many different birds, crabs, seals, dolphins, red squirrels (quite the little characters) and deer as well as the boats coming and going and the neighbors digging for clams during low tide. Also thoroughly enjoyed reading Dennis' autobiography!

Very Mainely Maine
If you are looking for a property that gives you peace, solitude, quiet and keeps you in touch with the natural world and the beauty that is Maine, THEN STAY HERE! We had a wonderful week of kayaking, hiking, Bar Harboring, and spending time with friends in the area, but our favorite part of the vacation was sitting on the screened-in porch and watching the boats navigate the bay and various animals and birds share the yard with us. The cabin is great, all wood, with full amenities including cable tv, microwave, full stove and oven, etc., and a king-size bed on the main floor. You can see most everything else from the listing, but most important is the mood this cabin gives off...peacefulness. Thank you to the Magee's for a great stay and hope to be there again soon!

The Magee’s cottage was such a slice of heaven! It feels like they have opened their home to you. They offered many helpful local suggestions. My favorite place was the screened porch to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. It was the perfect location for us to enjoy things both north and south of the cabin. It was our first trip to Maine and hopefully not our last!

Beautiful property!
So many good things here, like the screened porch and the morning light filtering through the woods; eagles and seals; a dip in the chilly waters during a hot spell felt special (Note: it is a bit seaweedy, and "dipping" is dependent on the tide). Great hiking and exploring nearby, but coming back to Dennis and Helen's place was always a highlight. Our only critique is that there are a LOT of personal effects and items: photos, dishes, religious items (framed verse, Bible etc). No real place to put one's groceries for the week other than on the countertop, nor personal items in the bedroom (which could use more light as well). But that's all an easy fix, and I think we're just accustomed to spare and depersonalized rental spaces. We also SO appreciate there being a charcoal grill -- propane seems to be preferred at many homestays. Thank you for our lovely getaway -- we really enjoyed it!
