About this property

Seal Rock - crafted cabin on the water near Acadia and Bar Harbor

Seal Rock is simplicity itself. Charming, unique custom cottage on rocky shore waterfront property and large wooded lot near Acadia National Park.
Perfect for a honeymoon, anniversary or a get-away-from-it-all vacation.
The main floor features a wall of windows on the water side, a large living/dining/kitchen/sleep great room with queen bed. Wrap-around windows slide into the walls and disappear to make a large screened room perched in the trees that brings the outside in.
A sunny and bright 2nd level open loft with 2 twin beds provides another space for reading, sleeping or quiet relaxation. Newly-cleared views of Goose Marsh Cove from the large deck, incredible sunset views, very quiet and private surroundings.
You are only a few minutes' drive from all that the island has to offer, including Acadia National Park, the charming villages on the "quiet side", and of course, Bar Harbor itself if you crave people-watching or shopping for unique souveniers, a movie night out at the cinemas, or access to the Island Explorer bus system to tour the island and the Park for free.

Wifi, no TV. Electric heat for cozy spring and fall evenings.

Rate is for 2 adults; $100 add'l for children up to max 4 guests.

Quintessential Maine!

Seal Rock was a wonderful place to stay during our Maine vacation. The views of the water, the convenient location to Acadia National Park, and the cabin itself made it an unforgettable experience. We would love to stay here again on another trip to MDI!

Great small cottage tucked in the woods. Was quite with only one house close. Within 30 minutes of most of the island. Clean house, the master bed was comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. Wonderful experience all around.
