About this property

Sea Spray - Modern Oceanfront Cottage with Views of Cadillac Mountain & Acadia

2026 Calendar Now Available for Reservations! ****************** Imagine scanning the internet for your perfect vacation home - on the waterfront, quaint but modern, small enough to manage but ample room to relax and enjoy the quiet. THIS IS SEA SPRAY.

Two bedrooms with one full and one half bath. Within feet of Frenchmen's Bay, a glorious view of Bar Harbor and Cadillac Mountain - the crown jewel of Acadia National Park.

This property is conveniently located in Hancock, between Bar Harbor (Mount Desert Island) and the Acadia National Park Schoodic Peninsula allowing for easy access to the hustle and bustle of everything Bar Harbor has to offer but offering the quiet, "off the beaten path" break that you have been looking for.

Fully equipped with all the modern conveniences yet packaged in the traditional Downeast Maine Cedar Shake, this home is positioned well off the road for the ultimate intimate get-away. Enjoy the full kitchen or take a short drive to local lobster pounds to enjoy the sweetest lobster you have ever eaten. Ample off road parking for two cars. Complete private use of the house and property with the exception of the on site detached garage. Perfect for two but easily accommodates up to three guests.

Low tide encourages walks along the water’s edge and many guests enjoy the treasure hunt for sea glass or the rare lobster buoy! This area inspires some of the most talented artists. Sea Spray boasts an eclectic sampling of these local artists.

Enjoy the flat screen TV, cable, wireless internet, Apple TV or bring your own DVD's in case you are planning to stay home. Perhaps you are looking for a long needed rest - enjoy the King Size Sleep Number bed in the Master bedroom or the new Queen bed in the guest room. Most days offer a wonderful breeze off the water but Sea Spray has air conditioning for that occasional hot and humid day. New full size Washer and Dryer are included.

Take a seat on the deck, relax on the Adirondack chairs by the water, or enjoy a nice fire in the firepit under the stars. Whichever you choose, enjoy your favorite drink as you breathe in the sea air.

Local attractions offer ample hiking, biking, kayaking, mountain climbing and more. Your hostesses are eager to share recommendations for special hikes or other local attractions.

Sharon and Carol are your hostesses. They vacationed in Maine in 2015 and fell in love with the rugged coast and the unspoiled natural beauty that still exists in this area. They loved it so much they made it their full time home and live year round in close proximity to Sea Spray. Living in the area allows them to provide the best personal guest experience instead of the all too common distant owner who has placed their rental in the hands of a management company. They strive to maintain guest privacy while being totally available when needed.

This is an awesome property. Sharon and Carol are great hosts and this was the best VRBO setup we have ever used. It had everything we needed to enjoy our week on the Maine coast. The views were amazing and it was a great place to relax or stage for more adventures in the area. I highly recommend this house and would definitely book again when we make our way back north.

Great Time in Downeast Maine

Our stay at Sea Spray was perfect! Sharon and Carol are Outstanding Hosts, and spoil their guests the instant the front door is opened, This was My wife and I's 2nd trip to Sea Spray and our boy's first, Sharon and Carol went above and beyond to make sure our boys felt just as welcomed as we did. They loved every second of it. from the little chairs by the fire pit to the Smores kit. We look forward to our next stay here to explore the area more.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience staying at the Sea Spray cottage. The hosts were very communicative and ensured we had all the info we needed for our stay ahead of time. When we arrived we were blown away by the view. It felt as though we were staying on top of the water. The location is quiet and tucked away from the hustle and bustle. I had planned to stay in Bar Harbor, but so glad I didn’t. We did both sides of Acadia, MDI and Schoodic and the location was in between both. It was clean as can be and well equipped with everything we needed and then some. The hosts welcomed us with fresh baked popovers and even let us check out later when our flight home was delayed by hours. We’d love to come back and bring our kids sometime.

Excellent week at Sea Spray!

Had a lovely vacation at Sea Spray! The home was lovely and had everything we needed. The hosts provided so many thoughtful touches: homemade popovers, blueberry jam, everything for smores. If you needed it, the home provided! It is a beautiful property, with an amazing view. Fantastic patio seating to take it all in. Thank you Sharon and Carol!

By far, our favorite VRBO to date. Spotless home with epic views enhanced by a firepit we used nightly. Away from the hustle of Bar Harbor but close enough to hike the elic trails of Acadia.
