About this property

Beautiful Acadia views on 4 serene acres. Private and peaceful after exploring

A peaceful and private location on Flanders Bay. PANORAMIC OCEAN VIEWS of Mt Desert Island on a bay that is perfect for kayaking, sitting by the bay and watching eagles and seals, and beautiful sunsets. My dog Annie and I love a friendly dog visitor as well. The apartment is a studio design with comfy king size bed, living room, mini kitchenette with full size refrigerator available, your own deck with water views, grill, , hammock and all you need to enjoy a peaceful and private Maine vacation. My home provides a private distance and is detached. I offer two LL Bean cruising bikes and kayaks for your use no charge. (Use of bikes and kayaks are at your own risk owner is not responsible for injuries with both or shore injury). )Located between Schoodic Peninsula and Ellsworth both just 15 minutes away. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are about a 30-40 min drive. Your dog is welcome if housebroken. (A crate, I can provide, for your time away is appreciated if you have any doubts about damages) All the comforts of home are here and everything you want to experience on your Maine vacation are accessible! Enjoy sightseeing Downeast Maine, it's lighthouses, reversing falls, peaceful hikes, and quiet ponds as well as Acadia National Park, Blue Hill, Stonington in the opposite direction within 30-45 minutes. Within walking distance you can enjoy lobster dinner, BBQ, ice cream, and scenic highway 1A.
This location offers it all! Peace and solitude, lakes, private ponds with beaches, ocean, hikes on and off Acadia within minutes from my home and all that scenic Rt 1 has to offer in Downeast Maine! Quintessential Maine experience in every direction. Guests consistently review appreciation for the peace and quiet here at the end of busy days in Acadia. My home is rented a few weeks during each summer and you will be advised at time of request if anyone other than the host is occupying.

This comfy studio apartment instantly feels like home away from home. All linens, towels, beach towels, pet cover and towel, coffee maker, coffee and tea, a bottle of wine to welcome your stay and more! The outdoor shower is a must try!. High pressure, hot water, private, all toiletries supplied! The fire pit by shore makes for a peaceful evening. The bay beckons a kayak paddle at sunset! Comforts of home are so important to me as a host!

Melaine Rd is a private driveway that connects three homes. 5 mph max please especially as passing neighbors homes.

We had the best stay. Misty is an awesome host and gave us a lot of ideas for restaurants and things to do. We had the best view and loved watching the seals and eagles. The studio was perfect to come back and relax at after our long days out and had everything we needed. Annie was an added bonus, just loved visiting with her.

A Little Piece of Heaven

Our stay at Misty and Dan's studio apartment was a perfect location while we were visiting Acadia. After a day of hiking it was so great to come back to the serenity and magnificent views of their property. They were so kind and helpful during our stay and we will definitely stay there again on our next visit to Maine.

Can’t beat the view!

The location is perfect. Right on the water with very few people around. Great place to kayak or read a book in the hammock. Easy drive to Acadia National Park and Schoodic Peninsula. Several good places to eat just a short drive away. Owners were responsive and great hosts. The studio is clean and private and the bed was very comfortable.

Great property - amazing views!

We had a great stay! The views are absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed a great nature show one night with seals, eagles and Ospry doing some fishing right near the dock! The location is nicely situation between Bar Harbour and the Schoodic side of Acadia. We enjoyed both. The lodging was very nice - nicely decorated, clean, cozy, and perfect for the two of us. Misty was a very welcoming host. Everything was great!

Will be back!

This was an amazing place. Located at end of road on Flanders Bay we had a separate unit (studio) and lots of access to backyard for bonfires as well as outdoor activities like kayaking. Seen lots of animals, seal on rock, wild turkeys and deer. Annie (golden retriever) was favorite for our dog. Misty was so helpful and prepared, enJOYed her company around camp fire. The unit was ideal as we enJOYed morning coffee looking out over the bay. Visited several local restaurants like Tracy’s Seafood as well as Flanders Bay BBQ, both right up the street. Already looking forward to next visit.

About the host

Hosted by Misty Gleason. 706-799-4126

Host profile image
this home has become my personal "heaven on earth". I hope to share my special spot with others enjoying privacy for each of us but also opportunity to build new friendships. This is a quiet location just off scenic Rt.1 providing gorgeous drives in both directions.

Why they chose this property

I am on 4 private acres. Lobster boats are the only activity you'll see in addition to an occasional kayak or two. Bald eagles are viewed daily. The yard gives you a peaceful repose by the water. Activity is available in every direction. Schoodic Peninsula, charming Winter Harbor, golf, tennis, galleries, antiques, and views everywhere. Mt Desert Island is 30-40 min. . My home sleeping 6 is an additional option to rent for family events.

Sullivan is the entry to the Scenic Byway which is Rt. 1 in Hancock County in what's considered Downeast Maine. The Scenic Byway leads you along the coastal towns heading north and east. I'm also located 30 minutes from Mt Desert Island with all the beauty of Acadia, boundless hikes and carraige trails and tons of entertainment!

What makes this property unique

Free kayaks and bikes included. Peace and quiet. Viewing eagles, seals, blue herons, osprey are common. The view is amazing, sunsets breathtaking and cool ocean breeze soothing.
