Wonderful time
This was our second year staying here and it is a great fit for our crew. Two older teenagers love having the downstairs space to themselves, myself and my older adult daughter stay in the upstairs bedrooms. Very spacious, clean, lovely deck for meals and social time, beautiful setting. Near many things we enjoy including wonderful places to eat (especially McLoons Lobster Shack right on the island; Primo's for something fancy, and The Happy Clam for family dinner); Owls Head and Birch Point State parks for beach time; Rockland for the farmer's market, excellent coffee shops, the Farnsworth Art Museum, and wandering around/browsing. Lovely spot, great host.

Acadia Adventures
Our family of five spent four days exploring both Acadia National Park and the Freeport area and this was the perfect location. Close enough to take the few hour drive to each location and secluded enough to get away from the hustle and bustle. We 100% recommend this location for others looking for adventures across the great state of Maine!

Beautiful home! Very accessible to attrations
This house was very large and had many amenities. The Yard was great and had a very nice deck equipped for entertaining guests. We enjoyed sitting out in the evening around the gas firepit spending time with Family from the area. We enjoyed watching the wildlife walk right up though the yard. Spacious garage we did not use but was accessible. 3 Bedrooms and 2 baths were spacious and well equipped. We loved the large stone fireplace in the Livingroom it was beautiful for taking memorable pictures. Kids enjoyed the large basement familyroom with TV where they could get away to themselve.

About the host

Hosted by Ellen Bunker

Host profile image
Hello, Welcome to Maine and to my home. My name is Ellen. I recently purchased this property and I have been getting it ready for you all winter. I have enjoyed every minute of it. It is my hope you will feel welcomed and relaxed here. While you are enjoying this property I will be on and island 20 miles from here tending to my lobster fishing business. I also am a Real Estate Broker for RE/MAX Jaret & Cohn. In my absents my sister will be seeing to the management of the day to day things here at the house. She lives in the neighborhood and will see that everything runs smoothly.

Why they chose this property

We have made every effort to make you feel at home here. You'll be tucked away from the hustle and bustle but only a short drive all the mid-coast has to offer. This property has a wonderful feel the minute you step through the door.

Do you like lobster? If you'd like them fresh off the boat we can make that happen! Need tips on how to prepare it? Got you covered. We are excited to have you as our guest. Thank you for your consideration.

What makes this property unique

One of my favorite things about this location is that you can step out the door and have a nice walk around the point. The water views are lovely and the neighborhood are very friendly. You are perfectly located for easy day trips to other areas such Boothbay or Bar Harbor. Rockland and Camden are just a few minutes drive you can easily enjoy all the dining and seasonal events they have to offer. How about a day at Drift Inn Beach and Marshal Point light? You'll find that just down the peninsula. Pick up the best crab roll (or any other goodies) at the Keag Store, just minutes away. We are happy to give you any other tips to help you get the most from your time here. Cheers ..Ellen
