About this property

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.

Beautiful location and great house

The house is 10 minutes from town and the airport. Great views from the floor to ceiling windows. 10Minutes to Acadia park so you can go to Cadillac mountain to see the stars. We had a great time.

Much needed family getaway!

It was a beautiful place to spend time together as a family. Communication with the property owner was proactive, thorough, and extremely helpful. The location is perfect for accessing all of the beautiful spots in Acadia and the surrounding Mount Desert Island area. Every part of the property was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. We can’t wait to plan our trip for next year.

Serenity

Our family of 4 fell in love with the stunning home and property immediately upon arrival. The views are incredible, the home has everything you could need, and the owners are incredibly kind and attentive. We hope to return and enjoy it all over again. Locating and accessing the property was quite simple and that holds value for us when traveling to unknown areas. Amazing vacation!!

Perfect stay

Wonderful time at the Cedar chalet! We got exactly what we were looking for: a modern chalet with a beautiful view in a peaceful location surrounded by pine trees. It was far enough from the main road and close enough from Bar Harbor and Acadia park. Jamie made sure we felt confortable! Thank you!

Fall getaway

We had a great time at this property. The location and space was wonderful. The only thing I would let people know is that the room on the loft doesn't have a door so if someone is an early riser, put them in that room! :)

Great gateway to Acadia

House was spotless. View was fantastic. Beds comfy (even the pullout). The house has everything you’ll need, including games and toys and books for kiddos if you have. We spent most evenings on the porch enjoying the view and sunset and most days in Acadia which is a short 15/20 min drive away

Cedar chalet

Wonderful home with spectacular views! This house was a home away from home for our family of 5. A short drive to downtown Bar Harbor and several trails in Acadia national park. The kids enjoyed being so close to the water and walking down and watching the sun set every night. Great communication with host Jamie. We will definitely be back in the future!

Fabulous multigeneration family week on MDI

The Cedar Chalet is wonderful. The place is clean, well decorated, and a lovely place to share time. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and reminded us of a nice hotel, especially the linens! The kitchen has all the amenities you need for cooking and sharing meals. Jamie is a very attentive host and she checked in via text, before and during our visit to make sure we were happy. I highly recommend this home and would stay here again.

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

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!

About the host

Hosted by Jamie Douglas

Host profile image
We are a fun, family of four, that loves to hike and be outside. We love Acadia National Park ! There is no better place to unplug and get away from it all.

Why they chose this property

This house is the perfect mix of being in a very wooded, private spot while also having big oceans views and water access.

We personally use this house as a spot to reconnect and relax so it has been freshly renovated with families and friends in mind. Games, books, and inside information on all the best things to do in Acadia and Bar Harbor are available.

The area is extremely quiet and a great place to enjoy the people you love.

What makes this property unique

A lot of the houses on the island are close to busy roads and have a lot of car noise. We bought this house specifically because it was so quiet. A sound you don't often hear now days.
