Oceanfront Acadia Cottage With Private Beach

Summary:

Enjoy this charming oceanfront cottage with its expansive panoramic windows. With 175 feet of private oceanfront beach at your doorstep, you'll enjoy unparalleled views of Bass Harbor.



Located on the serene "Quiet Side" of Mount Desert Island, this cottage serves as an ideal home base for your exploration of Acadia National Park.



The Space:

Just a stone's throw (less than 45 feet) from the ocean's edge, our tranquil cottage offers an unparalleled view of the charming lobstering village of Bass Harbor. Here, you'll be immersed in the quintessential Maine experience, with the salty sea breeze on your skin and breathtaking 180-degree vistas of the harbor and ocean. Whether you're indoors or outdoors, you'll be captivated by the mesmerizing wildlife and the rhythmic ebb and flow of the sea.
