About Long Pond. It will take you a week to see all the gems on Long Pond! Canoe to Duck Rock for a picnic. Duck Rock is a magnificent sheet of rock that cuts gradually into the lake. Perfect for swimming with all ages. You can even pick up an Acadia National Park trail up the Perpendicular on Mansel Mountain. Picnic to Rum Island and explore this beautifully situated island looking down the lake. Snorkel and find the boulders the size of rocks off its shores. It is a crystal clear fresh water lake. It is perfect for swimming, boating, and bass fishing. Kayaks, paddle boards and canoes are available through the National Park Canoe Rental on Long Pond @ 207-244-5854 which is on our lake. We are the only lake with a kayak rental on lake and they will deliver to the house.

Come be one with Nature in this Unique Spot. Enjoy the spectacular view from the decks and watch for loons and eagles. Take an early morning kayak ride while the lake is like glass. Sun and swim on the private dock and explore a fresh water lake. Canoe to Rum Island or Duck Rock for a picnic. Fish for bass and salmon. Watch the moon rise over Beech and curl up in a blanket and star gaze at night. Listen to the call of the loons and enjoy this unique property surrounded by ten acres of woods. This is Paradise!

Beautiful home in beautiful private setting

My wife and I went to Acadia to hike and bike for 5 days. This is a beautiful home on a beautiful, quiet lake, convenient to all activities on the island. We had a wonderful time!

Long Pond Cottage

The listing description accurate. Cottage is in quiet woods with direct water access. There’s a small dock for kayak or canoe if you rent or bring your own. Kitchen is well appointed as are the bedrooms and bathroom. Common area is small but comfortable for three people. Not in the description is that you must bring your own water for drinking but the tap water is fine for cooking and bathing. Saw stars at night as well as an asylum of loons right off of the dock. Quite peaceful there. Slightly far from anywhere you may want to go but not horrible. I was content to stay put and swim with my dog : )

Acadia Long Pond

The home was great. The lake was amazing. Acadia park and Bar Harbor is approximately a 25 minute drive. The entire family had an amazing time. Would definitely stay here again.

Tree house over the pond

This charming well appointed little house has wrap-around views of Long Pond through the trees and lots of natural light. The loon calls and breezes add to the joy. Diana is a responsive and responsible host. It was a true pleasure to stay there.

Amazing location!

This is a small, bright and cheerful house overlooking Long Pond. A wood chip path leads down to a dock overlooking a pristine and extremely private portion of the lake. To say this is a good spot is an understatement--the location is incredible, at the end of a peninsula and surrounded by acres of woods. Our three kids (aged 13 and 10-year-old twins) swam every day in the warm water before and after all the many activities we did. Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor are a short drive away and there's so much to do in every direction. One thing that's not clear from the ad is that the owner's own house is set not too far away from the rental property. (She happened to be away during our stay.) That house has its own dock and is set far enough away so that it's still a private house rental, but just know that you're not entirely alone. I've stayed on Long Pond before and I think this is a special house and amazing for families. Highest marks.

About the host

Hosted by Diana Ansley

As a young child, my parents brought us to Mt Desert as my grandmother was a Somes. I have always been in love with the island and wanted to capture its magic. I have a masters in Art History and Museum work and worked in the Smithsonian before raising three children. I have always been in love with the quality of light in Maine. I am an artist and paint on the island in the summer.

Why they chose this property

In 1761 our ancestor Abraham Somes settled Mt. Desert. This property came down to us from our grandmother who was a Somes. The land was originally part of an island on Long Pond. In the 1950's a causeway was built over to the island. Today this area is now called Northern Neck. The Northern Neck Road is great for walking or running. This is in the best spot on Long Pond picked by the original settlers on Mount Desert!

What makes this property unique

Built on a point on a fresh water lake about 75 feet from the water's edge, decks on two sides, Private Dock for swimming. One of the best views on the lake and on Mt. Desert Island!!! Windiana III is well maintained modern house.
