Waterfront Bliss

Words cannot accurately describe the beauty of this property. Located right on the ocean, the views are spectacular and we enjoyed every minute we spent here, taking in the sunrises and watching the lobster boats in Frenchman's Bay. We loved staying in Hancock, which is a nice distance from all the places we love to visit when in Maine Chippers Restaurant is right down the road and my husband enjoyed the Lobster Alfredo immensely. We find ourselves in Ellsworth and Bar Harbor often when we visit and this location provides a tranquility away from all the hustle. Judy is a wonderful hostess - very friendly, accommodating, and accessible. We very much appreciate any host who makes their property available to pets as well. While we have a pet sitter at home for our other cats, we were able to travel with our special needs cats. This provided a peace of mind for us and a memorable adventure for them. Thanks, Judy, for a wonderful week! Would highly recommend this house/location to anyone looking for the authentic Maine experience.

Absolutely Gorgeous and Memorable Experience

My wife and I stayed here for our first stay in Maine. The property is within 45 minutes of so many hikes and things to do that aren't even inside Acadia National Park. The highlight was Judy's friend Bob. We called him up and he was able to hand deliver a couple of Lobsters that he had caught that morning in the dense fog for us to cook up that night. The cottage is old and you can tell but it just adds to the charm of the coastal Maine experience. Judy was great at communicating and making sure we knew that if we needed anything she would be available to fix it. I don't think we could have enjoyed our stay more unless the weather had been a little clearer but can't control that!

Beautiful view but house needs a lot of work

The view was stunning but the house was not. First of all, the house smells very musty. The basement is non usable because of the strong odor. There were fans going in every room when we checked in so this has obviously been an on going issue. The stairs leading to the basement are VERY dangerous. There is no handrail on the open side of the stairs. Do NOT rent if you have small children as there is no door to keep them from going to those stairs. The house needs a great deal of repair.

Gorgeous view

The deck has the most gorgeous view of bay. Got to see some wildlife right from the deck. It in a great location not too far from a national park. I got to say it’s one of the best places I’ve stayed in the last three years I’ve been renting.
