About this property

Lakefront Secluded Estate Near Ocean, Bar Harbor, Acadia Called Whispering Pines


The secluded waterfront retreat sits just 20 feet from the lake alongside it is a carriage house also built around 1905. The four season (winterized) tranquil home sees its share of wildlife. The well appointed, six bedroom, three bath vacation home is in an ideal location. We call it Whispering Pines.

The wooded 76 acres of tall, old growth pines and broad oaks is laced with hiking trails leading to private vistas. The property has over 3,500' of frontage on Alamoosook Lake and Dead River and abuts 4,500 acres of conservation land. Mooring provided for your own boat. Whispering Pines is located just a few miles from access to the world class sailing waters of Penobscot Bay, historic Bucksport's marina and shopping, less than 30 miles from I-95 and Bangor International Airport. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are a scenic drive, only 30 miles away.

Cozy stone fireplaces for the cool autumn nights
Fully equipped kitchen: refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and microwave

76 acres with a private bridge and long driveway that winds down to the house.

You will love this location and the vintage home.

Perfect family getaway

We recently stayed with our whole family at Whispering Pines for a visit and enjoyed the lovely scenery and large house with plenty of bedrooms and living spaces to spread out in. Remote with beautiful wildlife and gorgeous views!

Hieaway on the water

It was a wonderful place to stay, tucked away in the woods by the water. I love this old house, the character, crank windows and the beauty of the outdoors around it. A wonderful place to stay!

Orland Maine Lakefront Cabin

Amazing lake views and tranquility as expected at this tucked away location. The house is large enough to accommodate a big party which fit our needs but we ran into some issues with rodents, lack of enough fans and clogged drains. We purchased a few fans and the owner was responsive to the issues. However the rodent issue put a damper on the overall stay as we shifted gears from making meals to hitting restaurants. So overall we enjoyed our stay getting out on the lake nearly everyday but with the issues experienced, thought the fee was a bit high.

Whispering Pines Aug ‘23

The property had beautiful views. However there was a musty, mildew smell that set off several allergic reactions in our family. We did not sleep well the 1st night and left early the next morning skipping our last two days and getting an hotel room. We alerted Pat to our experience and she offered us a reduced rate on a future stay. We appreciated her offer but will be staying somewhere else.
