Quiet and Cozy Seaside Cottage with Amazing Sunsets

Welcome to our family seaside cottage, since 1964 generations have enjoyed this quiet cozy ocean side retreat! Whether it's being outdoors swimming or boating on Carrying Place cove, searching for sea glass & shells on the rock beaches of Pigeon Hill Bay, Blueberry & Raspberry picking, hiking in the Pigeon Hill Conservation area or Petit Mann Wildlife Refuge, sunning on the back deck listening to the sounds of nature, playing croquet in the large backyard or relaxing inside with one of many books by the gas fireplace, or sit at the large dinning table and challenge yourself with one of many puzzles or board games; this unique cottage offers something for everyone. For all there is the Milky Way Galaxy unfolding above you, looking up at one of clearest night sky's in the northeast!
This very clean and well maintained cottage features a fully equipped large kitchen and one full bathroom. Four to eight people can comfortably sleep in the one bedroom (queen bed) and the three other areas of separated flex space, each with its own full sized futon or fold out sofa, The cottage offers a 4g, WiFi connection, a large TV with Amazon fire stick to stream your favorite shows and movies, BBQ grill, a land line phone for emergencies, and washer & dryer.

If you looking to get away for the day, Steuben is a quick day trip from Acadia National Park, Mount Desert Island, Schoodic Peninsula, Lubec, Eastport, Quoddy Head State Park and Campobello International Park (bring a passport)

The location is gorgeous with plenty of nearby walks, hikes, and interesting places to keep us busy. We saw deer, eagles and turkeys on the property. The cottage was clean and comfortable. It was quiet—at times we could hear the ocean from Pigeon Hill Bay just down the embankment across the road. Perfect in every way!

Very cute, clean, and comfortable!

This was a very cute little cottage in a great location, with lots to do right around the property. We hiked, checked out the coastline, did a Puffin Tour, and did a day trip to the Schoodic portion of Acadia National Park. The house was clean and comfortable, with everything we needed and great views. The only caveat--it's historical and not built for tall people--so watch your head if you are tall!

We had such a wonderful stay at this cozy cottage! Everything was spotless. The home was stocked with so many thoughtful extras—it truly felt like everything we could possibly need was right at our fingertips. Although our days were too packed to enjoy, we truly appreciated the great selection of games and books. Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish—friendly, prompt, and helpful. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and charming getaway.

Nice stay

Our family of 5 stayed and had a very nice time. The view from the back was amazing. I wish we had more time to do things around the house instead of just going to Bar Harbor. Great, clear instructions and recommendations were left at the house. There were a lot of breakables that might need to get moved if you have little kids (our youngest is 7).

Great vacation spot.

This was initially a little further out than I had thought but that turned out to be a wonderful advantage. It was just perfect for our vacation. It had everything we needed and the view of the sky was spectacular.

A summer retreat (return trip) to a quiet and beautiful area. Hiked in gorgeous nature preserves every day and hung out on the crescent pebble beach across the road. Bliss!

Family trip to maine

Stayed here with my father and brother while we were visiting my mother. Spent the week at this quiet and cozy seaside cabin. Beautiful views of the water during the day and all the stars at night. Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back. The host was very friendly and answered any questions we had.

Great location and atmosphere

If you’re looking for a little bit of an adventure, rather than a bland modern hotel room in town, this is a great choice. It reminded me of the house at the lake I grew up in, in northern Michigan, with lots of outdoors to enjoy and enough of the right amenities inside. Steve was very responsive and welcoming.

Wonderful stay

This house was comfortable, well provisioned, and had the added benefit of accessibility with a ramp, shower chair, and a grab bar in the shower. Everything we wanted was easily found and the kitchen had all a cook could ever want. The water view in the back and abundance of wildlife just added to the experience.
