About this property

Green Lake 4 bedroom vacation house near Acadia & Ellsworth

Our home is spacious and luxurious and a relaxed place to hang out. Built in 2002 with a 2023 renovation & addition, everything is new but feels like a classic Maine lake house with wood paneled walls and ceilings, a stone chimney, but all the modern conveniences. Green Lake is 8 miles long with plenty of space for boating and the Northeast cove is quieter & less windy and a great secluded spot to explore the islands, swim and kayak, and watch the loons, herons, eagles and beavers. Pick blueberries off the bushes all along our shore. Eat lunch on the porch right outside the kitchen/living area of out on the 60' long dock while soaking up the sun and the views. You enjoy a 180 degree view of the water from the house; it sits on it's own private promontory with over 550' of lake frontage, private dock, and swim dock. A canoe, 6 kayaks, and 2 stand up paddle boards are available for use. If you need a break from the lake their is plenty of mountain biking and hiking in the area.




The House: Open living area includes modern kitchen, dining table for up to 10, and living area with two couches, coffee tables and a TV. The kitchen is spacious with a big island, great views of the water, and fully equipped with lots of dishes and cookware, induction cooktop, wall oven, dishwasher, microwave, large frig/freezer and 2nd freezer in garage for extra food. A spacious pantry provides additional storage. Washer & Dryer and gas grill make the living easy and the wood fire place adds ambiance on those cool Maine nights. Four 2nd floor bedrooms are each spacious - 2 with queen beds and 2 with California Kings, each with some wood paneling and great views. The primary bedroom is all new and even has its own balcony in the tree tops or enjoy coffee overlooking the lake. A new 2nd floor living space adds extra room for multiple groups to hang out with lots of privacy within the house. There are 3 full baths on the first & second floor with the newest one with a walk-in shower for two and a soaking tub. Basement rec room/bunk room provides expansion space for larger families and friends or a place to play on a rainy day. House is equipped for everyone in the family with Roku TV, VCR & DVD player, ping pong table and additional seating in the basement play area. Towels and linens are provided.

Close to Acadia, Bar Harbor and Ellsworth: Our Green Lake house is only:
6 miles to major Route 1A with various hikes, antique shops, flea market, and restaurants.
17 miles to Ellsworth, the gateway to down east Maine with many restaurants, coffee shops, Breweries, a cinema, LL Bean Outlet Store, Walmart, Hannafords, and Home Depot.

What bliss it was to stay here! In truth, it’s our dream home - perfect setting, no bugs, and just close enough to civilization to be useful. I only wish it had the ping pong table in the pictures. Maybe next time!

Tucked away in the woods outside of Ellesworth, Maine is the most amazing home. We were so lucky to have stumbled upon this beautiful lakefront property. The pictures do not do it justice. What a great family getaway!

Connecticut Yankees in Ellsworth

We were able to entertain a our family and friends at Green Lake. We were pleasantly surprised with the updates and are looking forward to upcoming changes. The house was perfect for different groups of people, some talking, some by the water, some on the porch, but everyone was able to enjoy meals together! The boats allowed our group to form a small armada. Doug was wonderful with our questions and the house is a terrific distance from Acadia.

A Peace-filled Week

This beautiful home locates you in the green, mossy world of the Maine woods. Late in the season, the absolute quiet was broken only by loon song. Inside, an incredibly well-furnished, comfortable living space; outside a large lake to explore in kayaks or canoe (all provided) and lots of possible hikes nearby. To top it all off, this is a pet-friendly rental! Our week was fun and healing!

Beautiful Lakeside House

The lake was absolutely gorgeous and the house was the perfect size for our group. We loved the spacious kitchen and living room and my dog absolutely loved the yard. Great location! Less than an hour to Bar Harbor and Acadia but still wonderfully remote.

Wonderful! Perfect getaway.

Absolutely perfect. Nothing about this place could have been better. The house is gorgeous and contained everything we needed. The location was perfect. We never heard another human- only the loons on the lake. The host was wonderful- very responsive to anything we needed. If I could give this 10 stars, I would!

Fun for everyone

My fiance and I and my family all stayed in this cabin and loved it! As a group we were 4 adults and 2 teens and had plenty of space. The main purpose of our trip was to visit Acadia which was about an hour drive from the property but that gave us enough time to wake up on the way there and relax on the way back. The property itself is beautiful and the lake was great. Too cold for swimming but perfect for kayaking which we did almost everyday. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a lakeside getaway especially if interested in also visiting Acadia.

Relaxing stay

Such a wonderful house and property! So cozy and right on the lake. We just wish it could have been a little warmer to enjoy the lake more! It felt like we were in our own home. We’ve never stayed at a house so well equipped! Thank you so much for allowing pets! Our dogs felt right at home too!

Heaven on Green Lake

The lake house was amazing, it had everything we needed for four days of relaxation. I can't thank the Sacra's enough for sharing your home with us. The the location is far enough away from civilization but close enough when we needed it. The lake is beautiful and so peaceful. Sitting on the dock listening to the call of the Loons was by far my favorite thing. Those of you who've been here know what I'm saying. Those looking for peace and quiet look no further. As for us, we'll be back for more heaven on Green Lake..

Sehr komfortables, schönes Ferienhaus in ruhiger malerischer Umgebung, direkt am See

Kurz gesagt, eines der besten Ferienhäuser, die wir jemals gemietet haben! Durchdacht konstruiert, liebevoll und praktisch eingerichtet, mit kompletter Ausstattung (u.a. Geschirrspüler, Mikrowelle, Herd und Backofen, Toaster, Waschmaschine, Waschmittel und Trockner, Bügelmöglichkeiten, Kamin mit Brennholzlager, Weber-Gasgrill draußen, dort auch Möglichkeit zum Lagerfeuer, Insektenschutzgitter vor allen Fenstern und Türen, Tischtennis im Keller, Gesellschaftsspiele, DVDs, Infomaterial über Ausflugsmöglichkeiten etc.. Alle unsere Wünsche bzw. Erwartungen wurden mehr als erfüllt. Ideal für Ruhesuchende, Naturliebhaber (u.a. lohnenswerte Ausflüge in den Acadia Nationalpark, Auto-Pass incl. aller Insassen für 7 Tage 30 US-Dollar) und am Wassersport Interessierte (Kanu und Kajak fahren, angeln, schwimmen) und für Kinder (Entdeckungen, zelten, Boot fahren, Marshmallows am Lagerfeuer rösten...). Vom Vermieter bestand die Maßgabe, am Abreisetag die Bettwäsche und die hauseigenen Handtücher zu waschen und im Wäschetrockner zu trocken, um dem Auftreten bzw. der Verbreitung von Bettwanzen entgegenzuwirken. Kein Problem! Wir hatten auch keinen Ärger mit ungebetenen Insekten! Geringfügige Nachteile: kein Handy-Empfang, dafür aber die Möglichkeit, sich auf einem Festnetztelefon anrufen zu lassen, von dem aus man auch innerhalb des Bundesstaates Maine telefonieren konnte; relativ schlechtes Internet (lange Download-Zeiten bzw. z.T. frustrane Versuche). Alles in Allem haben wir uns dort wirklich sehr wohl gefühlt und waren etwas traurig, nach vier Tagen wieder abreisen zu müssen!

Perfect location on the lake

We've come to Green Lake for over 10 years and this is the best place we've ever stayed. Perfect location, great comfort, super dock, great paddling. I'm a wildlife photographer and was able to capture some of my best shots of bald eagles and loons, pileated woodpeckers and much more. It's only an hour from Acadia and Bar Harbor, but we only went once this time because the cabin met all our rest and play needs. The dogs loved swimming in the lake
