About this property

Oceanfront Getaway in Heart of Downeast Maine

Start your day on the front porch with a cup of coffee as the lobster boats make their way out into the Gulf of Maine. Or you may choose the more active route with a hike up Pigeon Hill trail to be amongst the first in the US to welcome the new day. Whether your focus is to relax and disconnect, be active and engage, or maybe a little bit of both, this B.Still property has what you need to make that a reality.

The main house consists of two bedrooms with memory foam queen beds, quality linens, and oceans views. The home has two bathrooms, including one with a tub, to wash away the days activity or to take a moment for yourself to relax and reflect. The spacious living room comes equipped with a fireplace and record player making it a perfect spot to take in a cool Maine summer night. Also don’t forget the telescope where you can take in the night sky and maybe get a glimpse of the Milky Way . When dinner time arrives, the family can gather around the large dining room table, or perhaps choose the more casual route with counter seating. Should you want to grab some lobster fresh off the dock and give your own boil a shot, the kitchen has been recently upgraded with quartz counters and stainless appliances and includes everything you would need to cook your lobster feast.

Should you require a little additional space to spread out, the property also has a separate bunkhouse. The suite consists of a queen memory foam bed, high ceilings, all tastefully decorated to give off that Jackson Hole, WY vibe. Also on property is a spacious daybed where you can drink in the views of the bay and a camp grill with equally enviable views. If you want a closer look at that beautiful view, we have two kayaks on site with two adult and one children's life vest.

The house is situated right on the coast line, with amazing views. It has all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay and the property manager was very nice. The house itself is comfortable and cozy. I found the beds to be comfortable. The kitchen is updated and has everything you would need to prepare meals. Outside there is a grill and a fire pit. The fire pit provided a great view of the water. The only suggestion I would have is that the bunk house could use some proper ventilation. All in all we had a great experience and would recommend this location for others.

Great vacation

We loved the house. The view was amazing every morning from front porch. The little bunk house was so nice too. I know that air conditioning is hardly ever needed but i would recommend some window units. We had 2 days near 90 and it got very warm in house. Other than that we jad a great time and definitely would rent house again.

This property exceeded our expectations. Communication with the owner and property manager was easy and they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. It was extremely clean and well appointed. Linens, towels and beds were very comfortable. The view from the front porch was spectacular. The decor was very well done-uncluttered and comfortable. It is very quiet, peaceful and relaxing. We were a family traveling with three young adults and there was plenty of space for all of us. My husband and I enjoyed the quiet of the separate bunk house. We used the kitchen for many meals and had everything we needed. There are several great hikes within minutes. We were half hour to an hour of Acadia, ice cream, restaurants, golf and a fresh seafood store ( we bought lobster less than a half mile down the road and it was amazing). This property definitely made our Maine vacation memorable and we would stay again in a heartbeat. Thank you Scott for sharing your beautiful property. Ray-you were the perfect host!

Amazing Vacation!

There are so many great things to share about this property. The house itself is fantastic - super clean, nice decor, well stocked with everything you need in terms of kitchen, washer/dryer, plenty of linens, games, binoculars, telescope, record player with a great selection, etc. The back porch is a perfect place for coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. We spent lots of nights at dining room table playing board games with the windows open and feeling the ocean breeze. My teenager stayed in the boathouse and enjoyed having their own space. We saw bald eagles and got to watch some seals for a couple of hours chasing after their dinner.The check in process was very smooth - we had all the info we needed and great directions and got a text that day to make sure we were all set. Ray so graciously offered to stop by to give us some insider tips on things to do and we were so happy we took him up on that offer! He suggested some great restaurants, ways to see Acadia while avoiding the crowds, and a few lovely hiking spots (a couple of great trails right down the road!)I've stayed at a lot of places, but i think this one might be my favorite! Would love to come back!

Excellent Location for A Quiet Stay

There is so much to recommend about this property and there was one major flaw (more about that later). Check in with Ray was very welcoming. He's a fount of information and very responsive. The house is beautifully located on a lovely quiet cove with views out to the open ocean. Surrounded by trees it is very private. The house has some nice updates including bidets in both bathrooms (I'm sure that is better for a septic system), although one was not working. It was perfect for the two of us and our dog. I think it would be tougher for more people, since there is very little seating in the living room and one BA is downstairs at the base of steep stairs. Great location for going back towards Bar Harbor/Acadia or further up the coast towards Machias. Restaurant selection is sparse, but what is there is good to very good. And do at least one dinner at the Treehouse Grill in Winter Harbor. It is excellent! (The charred Spanish octopus is a definite do not miss!) Now for the big BUT. The toilets both were cracked and both of the tanks were filled with black guck (possibly black mold?)! One toilet had gray water in the bowl that had a bad odor. It was gross! I would not recommend booking here until you have a firm confirmation from the owner that toilet the toilets have been replaced and that the tanks are clean and mold free!

Everything was fantastic from start to finish. Ray was very helpful and gave us recommendations of places to go in the area, and some of those became highlights of our trip. The house was comfortable, and I lost track of how many hours I spent on the deck watching the tides or the hunting seals and bald eagles. We will be booking here again.

The property is beautiful and well-appointed and within driving and even walking distance of so many attractions. And the view from the porch is stunning!

A Piece of Down East Heaven

Perfect for a relaxing, peaceful, soothing getaway. Activity in the area are the lobster boats going in and out of the peninsula each day. Even cloudy, rainy days were gorgeous. Perfect for those who like to be left alone and enjoy quiet, off the beaten path. Anywhere you need or want to go is close enough to drive without a hassle. All of the food was delicious and fresh wherever we ate in the region. The house itself was wonderful and so comfortable, felt like home. Beautifully decorated and simple, everything was cozy, comfortable and extremely clean. The only thing I would have liked abour it more would have been a working fireplace for the couple of cold nights we had. The propane heater in the living room was enough to heat the whole house to a comfortable level. Ray, the property manager was absolutely wonderful. Very helpful when asked any questions, friendly and knowledgeable if you want to know anything about the area, the house, where to eat and more. I took many photos of the house and surrounding area including the readily available hiking trails down to the shoreline for beautiful views as well as natural beauty along the paths. One of the best vacations I've ever had as I prefer not to be in a touristy area. Despite some of the more dreary days, I was out on the porch just soaking it all in. The property is aptly named B Still. It was heavenly. Despite some of tthetupperpdo.

Beautiful, quiet location

House is right on the water, well appointed with spectacular views. Quiet area (although the walls in the house are thin- if you happen to be traveling with friends who snore). Great location. Close to hiking trails and a place to buy live lobsters. Fabulous wood sculpture studio right down the road. Lots of places to get lobster rolls and clams nearby. Property Manager Ray was extremely helpful in providing us with excellent tips on where to go and what to see in the area.
