Hidden Gem

This is a great cabin located in a nice private setting, with the ocean literally feet from the door. We enjoyed our stay. It was so relaxing and we got to see the full Hunter Moon rising right over the ocean. The cabin was clean and cozy, and the kitchen had everything you could need. We enjoyed day trips to Bar Harbor/Acadia, Schoodic Peninsula, Lubec and Campobello Island. I would rent this property again in a heartbeat.

Perfect In Every Way

We've vacationed on the Maine coast for at least 12 years and this was by far the best ever. The property is newly renovated, located right on the water and central to many day hikes and day trips. Acadia National Park and Campabello Island Canada are two of the ones we did, with perfect weather for each. Communication with Karl, the owner, was clear and welcomed by each of us and meeting him personally was a bonus. A variety of wildlife was seen throughout the week while hiking, kayaking and driving with the sea life of seals, whales and dolphins being most memorable. This rates a perfect 10 and we're already planning things we might enjoy doing on a return stay. Loved every minute of it!

Comfy cabin, idyllic location, wonderful host

Brass tacks first. Cabin is great. Very clean and has all the necessary amenities for the entire family. Lots of windows flood the living space with natural light and afford amazing views of the bay and surrounding islands. Besides the seagulls and occasional lobster boat, the only thing you'll hear is the gentle lap of waves on the rocks outside. When it's time to tuck in at night, the cabin has books, TV, DVDs, and internet so you can reconnect with the outside world (should you choose) and the beds are comfy. The location is great, within a short drive of Acadia and Schoodic Point. If you don't want to drive, it's a short walk from the cabin to Pigeon Hill for spectacular views (you really must make the climb, it's awesome). If you need some hustle and bustle, don't miss out on Bar Harbor which is about and hour away. If you're hungry, there are a ton of take-away joints nearby and Milbridge has groceries. We had a chance to meet the owner of the property. We talked about the history of the property and were able to pick his brain about things to do and see. Speaking of which, if you don't get the chance to meet Karl...he has left plenty of information in the cabin to help you find attractions, food, restaurants, etc. (FYI, we invited Karl to visit. He won't just pop in unannounced if that sort of thing concerns you.) My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Steuben. We will be back to Pigeon Hill for sure.

This cottage is wonderful. The host has put a lot of consideration into his space. We felt welcomed and comfortable. The ocean view is incredible with small boats and wildlife. Nearby is hiking at Petit Manan and Pigeon Hill Reserve. Beautiful views and wild blueberries await. Cant wait to return!

Magical Maine

I cannot say enough good things about our rental. We stayed at the cabin vs. going to Bar Harbor just to enjoy the views of the water, watching the tides come and go, and watching the lobster boats. We enjoyed eating dinner at the picnic table and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. Don’t miss the opportunity to view the gorgeous and brilliant night sky as well as watching the sun rise. The cottage is well equipped and has thoughtful additions throughout. Karl is a wonderful host and checked in with us to ensure a wonderful visit and answered any questions promptly. This is a wonderful place to visit.

Loved it!!

Karl’s cabin was perfect! Our family of four used this amazing cabin as our home base while we explored the area. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. And the view was amazing! We kayaked in the bay several times, went to the tidal falls, Schoodic Point, biked the trails in Acadia, and hiked the trails down the road. And ate lots of lobster! Even steamed lobster right there on the waterfront of the cabin. And watched the ever changing life on the bay, with it’s tides, lobster boats and wildlife (saw lots of seals!). Thanks for the amazing stay! Hope to be back!

Fantastic experience

Loved this cottage. So glad we found this for our first trip to Maine. Peaceful location away from the touristy bar harbor, but close enough to drive there for activities. So many thoughtful extras that we've not experienced in other VRBO properties we have visited. Our family of 4 was very comfortable here. The host was very kind. We are missing the place already and would love to return..

The Perfect Getaway!

The cottage was beautiful and the view was magnificent. Communication with the owner was excellent, and the place was well supplied with thoughtful items that were above and beyond expectations. (Like binoculars for viewing the wildlife.) We felt that we experienced a more authentic coastal main experience here than in a more 'touristy' area. All the small towns nearby are wonderful to explore as well as Acadia National Park. FIVE STARS from us all around!

Soul Rejuvenation

The property is stunning. The ocean is literally footsteps from the property. The cabin had everything we needed and extra. It was nice sitting on the screened in porch while it was raining with a good book and enjoying a lunch on the picnic table out back. Both have a beautiful view. My soul feels lifted and lighter with this stay. The host is very kind and generous and is just a text or phone call away. Its hard to put into words how lovely the home is. I would highly recommend this property for your Maine vacation. Bar Harbor was about 35 minutes away and the drive was beautiful. The beds are comfortable and the appliances worked well along with the heater which warms the entire house easily. The large windows give fresh breezes throughout the house when it’s a slightly warmer day. We will definitely be booking and staying here again. Thank you!

Unbelievable, and a fantastic value

Karl, our host was wonderful, kind, and very helpful with pointing out local digs and places of interest. The camp was spectacular, decorated really cute, and the view, the view..., no words can describe. The camp is off Pigeon Hill Road totally hidden from everything except the ocean. Sunrises were gorgeous, and the rest of the day was just as nice. The main bedroom is very comfortable, and the second floor room with beds and sitting facilities were very quite roomy. The camp was well stocked with everything for cooking and dining, and the ocean side yard includes a picnic table, fire pit, grill, and even a lobster cooker. We were there for a week, and every day was an adventure. If you are interested there is a video of our week at the camp and our day trips - youtu.be/jVSa4G9sn8o. Will absolutely rent again.

Relaxation station!

From the moment we turned into the driveway we knew this would be a memorable stay, and we were right! Cozy and comfy are great words to start with, followed by picturesque, spectacular, and incredible. It just doesn't seem possible to be stressed while on the property. Whether exploring the rocks lining the bay, or sitting in the living room looking through the huge bay windows, relaxation awaits at every turn. The host (Karl) obviously takes great pride in the condition of the property. The cabin and grounds were incredibly clean and well-appointed, with everything a guest could possibly need. Karl made sure we had all the information we needed for our stay and then checked in after we got settled to make sure all was good. We can't wait to get back!

Perfect sunrises

My husband and I had a morning ritual of watching the sunrise. We were able to watch the lobster boats pull out at sunrise. This place is a gem. The view from the living room is amazing. It is off the beaten path and not near the tourist traps. Bar Harbor. It is still close enough to go visit those but we only did that one day. There are hiking paths around and the north coast of Arcadia national Park, which is gorgeous. The owner is wonderful and it was a pleasure to meet him and get to talk to him. We will definitely be going back someday.
