Oceanfront Maine Acadia Cottage

Tidal Ledge has a beautiful and secluded contemporary Atlantic seacoast design that blends perfectly into the Maine landscape. It’s exceptional location offers the quintessential Maine experience.

The main living area boasts floor to ceiling glass windows offering 180 degree views of the ocean. This home is well appointed with everything you expect to find in your own home to include a fully stocked kitchen, luxurious turkish bath towels, and comfortable high thread count sheets. For your convenience a washer and dryer are also available in the home.

The layout makes this house easy to move around with only one floor to include two spacious bedrooms each with a queen size bed, and one spacious bathroom. The house has a large 50 inch flat screen television with full cable and Roku packages, and the wifi maintains a strong signal. For cool nights a beautiful gas log fireplace warms the house. Note: Due to the proximity to the ocean and high decks, Tidal
Ledge is only suited for adults with children aged 16 or older.

Grab your chairs or blanket to walk over to the Frenchman Bay Conservancy sponsored Summer Monday evening concerts that make for a fun evening. These fun concerts are located within walking distance from the house, or you can take in the concert from the comfort of the large back deck.

Tidal Ledge sits next to a nature preserve that highlights some of the most exceptional viewings of Maine wildlife. It is not unusual to frequently see bald eagles, harbor seals and a wide cross section of bird species flying about, all seen from the privacy of the back lawn. At night, sit by the Oceanside fire pit taking in views of the Milky Way. Take a stroll in the morning down to the shoreline with a cup of coffee, and in July and August pick wild blueberries on property for your breakfast pancakes.

If your looking for a nice dinner out, look no further than the 4 star restaurants available in the area. Chippers, Ironbound, and Crocker House Country Inn are all within a short drive away. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are a 20 minute drive, and for shopping essentials Ellsworth is the largest town in Hancock county and is a 10 minute drive away. Hancock Point is located a short distance away. Visit Hancock’s 130 year old library, and take a stroll around the point enjoying views across Frenchman’s Bay to Bar Harbor.

Maine cottage
This property was so wonderful! It was perfect for my husband and I. Comfy furniture, cozy fuzzy blankets, a working gas fireplace and a stunning waterfront view. Deer passed through the property most mornings and it was a short drive to Acadia which was in full fall color and was so beautiful for hiking and drives. Most attractions were closed for the season when we went (late Oct) but we found plenty of good food and the weather was perfect for hiking. We loved it here. I reached out to the owner with a question and she was prompt and friendly and actually called instead of messaging through VRBO which i appreciated. I would 100% recommend this property and i would love to come stay here again.

5++ from us!
The incredible view off the back porch and the peace and quiet we experienced was just amazing! It’s about 45 minutes from Bar Harbor, but we would definitely choose this over some fancy new condo in the middle of town. The kitchen is well stocked, and the home is very quaint, which was exactly what we were looking for. The host(s) were super super nice and genuinely cared about making our stay the best possible!

Review of Hancock VRBO
Last year we stayed four nights... this year we stayed seven nights. We love this place. It feels like home. The view is outstanding... plenty of windows to bring the outside inside! The hosts invested in good cookware, sharp knives, plenty of towels...a good gas grill! It's all you would want in a home away from home. And a short distance away are wonderful places to bike along the beautiful coast of Maine. This place is easy to love!!!

Maine Vacation
Our stay at Tidal Ledge was OUTSTANDING! We couldn't have asked for anything better. The house was better then the descriptions clean, comfortable, with everything we needed. Waking up to the beautiful view out the windows was spectacular - even when it was rainy. Tracy couldn't have been a better host. She made us feel welcome and was available to answer questions. We really wished we could have stayed another week or two and hated to leave. If we ever come back to the area we will definitely try to stay at Tidal Ledge.
