Cabin with ocean views, minutes from Acadia and Bar Harbor | Cabin in Bar Harbor
2 Bedroom Cabin in Bar Harbor
Location:
TheGuest House is located on the north coast of Mount Desert Island overlooking Frenchman Bay. The cabin is just 7 minutes (2.5 miles) from the Acadia National Park Visitor Center and 13 minutes (5 miles) from Bar Harbor. There are fun and safe bicycle routes to both the park and town.
This cabin enjoys beautiful views and is about 50 yards from the communal cliffside deck with a picnic table overlooking Frenchman Bay. From here, you can enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets, watch lobster boats working the bay in the morning, and often see seabirds diving for fish. On occasion, guests spot dolphins or seals in the bay, and sometimes even a bald eagle passing overhead. It’s a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, relax with a glass of wine in the evening, or have a peaceful picnic lunch while taking in the scenery.
From the wall of windows across the front of the cabin, you look out through tall pines to Frenchman Bay below. The view includes the water, the neighboring shoreline and cottage, and the ever-changing activity on the bay. The trees frame the scene beautifully, giving you a sense of being tucked into the woods while still enjoying clear glimpses of the water beyond. In the evening, the light over the bay filters through the branches, creating a warm, peaceful atmosphere that makes the living room a perfect place to relax and take it all in.
