We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a more responsive, accommodating, and friendly host. Laura was so welcoming and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The property was absolutely beautiful, with a spectacular view and such a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. We especially enjoyed the incredible wildlife, including several memorable up-close eagle sightings right from the property. Everything we needed was available, and the accommodations had all the amenities we could have hoped for. We truly enjoyed our stay!

We had a wonderful time in the cottage overlooking the water. It was very peaceful and met all our needs. The host was wonderful with a few wonderful surprises to welcome us to their cottage. We would definitely consider renting again the next time we are in the area.

What a beautiful place! The view is incredible. The house was clean and very organized. There were lots of little extras too. The host was very responsive to any questions that I had. I loved having my morning coffee out in the Adirondack chairs. The birds give quite a show. It was like living in a postcard. Definitely a five star review.

Five star everywhere. The property is charming, well kept up, the inside is even more charming. Laura has done a most outstanding job with decorating everything inside in a perfect Maine style. Not cluttered, just lovely touches everywhere. The kitchen is amazingly organized for a small kitchen, the beds, very comfortable and ease of using any heat needed also very easy. A lovely screened in porch for summer use. We did not use it as it was just a little bit chilly outside at the end of October. The access roads to the cottage are a little bumpy and rough, but very small price to pay for such a fantastic cottage. I cannot imagine anybody finding fault with this cottage, this was our second stay and I’m hoping for a third.

Thank you so very much for your kind hospitality and this perfect week in Maine. We had a little fog, but mostly sun, we hiked the beehive, ate much lobster and blueberry pie, Abby Aldrich’s gardens, sailed a friendship sloop in southwest harbor, good times with old friends. Adirondack chairs looking out over Cadillac Mountain were ideal. The view is incomparable. Loons and gulls, wild turkeys and porcupines. Stella, our 15-year-old German shorthair pointer was young again hiking the trails and sniffing out the local critters. It was a perfect week.

The house is amazing, we loved the screen porch. Our only complaint was that we wished there was a dishwasher. A very private and quiet location not too far away from the hustle and bustle of MDI and Ellsworth.

Lovely Cottage with a beautiful view

We really enjoyed our stay at Beau Se Jour. Quiet peaceful serene setting overlooking the water with the most beautiful sunrise. There is so much to do within minutes of the cottage. Laura and Robert were wonderful hosts and their attention to detail made our stay one we will always remember. If you are looking for the perfect place to stay near Acadia National Park, this is the place.

Magical tranquility!!All the senses were satisfied in this gem!! Even came with a delicious quiche!! If you’re looking for a private, peaceful place to call home while you travel the Arcadia region, this would be hard to beat. We were lucky enough to arrive on the full moon and it was glorious!!If you require a gourmet kitchen and need a spa bathroom experience, this isn’t for you. The kitchen does have every gadget you could possibly need. The water pressure in the shower was good! The beds were very comfortable and we all mentioned how well we slept!! Great breezes, quiet and clean fresh air!! Really appreciated the water dispenser and the cleanliness - the windows are new!! Laura was an amazing source and a wonderful host!! She was available for any question (she’s like a genie, ask and you shall receive;)). She even ordered some beautiful weather for our visit!!

An Amazing Time

This was our first trip to Acadia and we had the best time taking day trips as it was central to everything we wanted to see. But the best part was coming home to this little slice of heaven. So peaceful and picturesque. Thank you for letting us stay.

Peaceful

We had a fantastic, relaxing week with the family in Laura’s home. Communication prior to the stay was easy and quick. upon arrival Laura left us some goodies. The home had everything and was better supplied than most other VRBOs we have visited. The view was amazing and the rooms were large and welcoming. if we go back to Maine we will stay here again.

Peaceful and lovely

This cottage was just lovely from the moment we pulled in. The view is so peaceful and all the little quaint and special touches made it feel like home away from home. The cottage was very clean and well stocked and they also provided so much information for the area with things to do and places to visit which were so helpful. Laura was so kind and helpful with any questions and very quick to respond. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

A Slice of Maine Paradise

Beau Se Jour is a special place. The pictures can’t do it justice. It’s very spacious and well stocked. Truly the quintessential Maine cottage. Worth every penny. Laura is a fabulous host who truly cares that you have a wonderful stay. My only advice is you will need to book this one early to get it, and you be glad you did! I’d give it 20 stars if I could.

The Maine Experience

The house was perfect in every way....like stepping back in time. The furnishings and whole aura are of a grander period of life...just beautiful. The view of Frenchmans Bay from every window are calming and serene as the tide drops and rises twice a day. We headed out on an adventure in Acadia National Park every day which is about a half hour away. We did it all but wers always happy to head back to the quiet and solitude of our rental house.

Peaceful, beautiful, great hosts

Great place to get away and rewind. House is very clean, full of charm and spacious. Views are surreal. Pictures don't do it justice. Location was great. Peaceful, away from summer crowds yet close to multiple attractions (MDI, Acadia, Southwest Harbor, Schoodic). Fabulous hosts! Laura and Robert truely care about their guests. They are very responsive to text messages and provided tons of information about local attractions and restaurants (our favorites Red Sky, Beals Lobster Pier and Mortons Moo Ice Cream). This is one of the best VRBO homes that we have stayed at. Beautiful views, cozy house, solitude, great hosts!

Coastal Maine Sanctuary

Our family of four had an amazing week at Laura and Rob's cottage. The cottage was cozy and ready for us when we arrived, complete with a homemade quiche from Laura cooling on the kitchen counter! It was delicious, too! No matter what we needed during our stay, the cottage provided it (extra pillows, an extension cord, paper plates, binoculars, area maps, fans, & a wine opener, to name a few). We took many day adventures during our stay (Acadia, Bar Harbor, Schoodic Point) and always appreciated where we rested our heads at the end of the night. Highlights of our trip included meeting Laura and Rob at Schoodic Point, seeing bald eagles soar outside of the cottage, hiking Cadillac Mountain with our kids, dinner at Havana, contributing to the cottage's heart rock collection, and making the trip to Gull Rock Pottery in Hancock. Thank you for everything!

Absolutely stunning view with privacy

The weather wasn't the best for this week but if you had to have rainy weather, I can't imagine a better spot to be at. The house is well appointed with comfortable beds and beautifully decorated in a coastal theme. The view from the main bedroom upstairs is breathtaking in the morning, you do not have to get out of bed to enjoy it. It's equally dramatic on the first level and there are plenty of spots in the house to sit and read and still enjoy the view of the water. The screened in area would be a huge bonus when the bugs are out, fortunately the rain and cool temperatures kept them at bay for our visit. The waterfront/beach area can be accessed by a long set of stairs down to the water. It is very private and while there are a few neighbors, you don't really see the homes through the foliage. It really is a beautiful location.

Our beautiful stay

I can not say enough how wonderful our stay was at Camp Beau Sejour! The pictures on the website are wonderful, but they don’t do the real life cottage justice. It was spectacular, and away from the crowds at MDI Laura responded immediately to any questions we had preparing for our trip, and was as warm and caring as an old friend. She took care of so many details in the cottage, and we could want for nothing. The flowers outside were beautiful and so were the fresh cut flowers inside. The music playing when we came in was calming, and our furry family enjoyed the fresh water that she provided upon their arrival. We could have spent a full day enjoying the antiques, pictures, and crafts in the home. The house was spotless and the views couldn’t be beat. Laura, thank you for your hospitality and sharing your cottage home with us.

Short but oh so sweet

Although our trip was cut short, we had an amazing stay at Beau Se Jour. This is the quintessential Maine cottage, full of character and surrounded by natural beauty. We couldn't have picked a better vacation home. The views are surreal and the solitude is priceless. If you need to disconnect, this is your spot. Our host Laura was on point. Everything was carefully orchestrated and planned right down to the beautiful soft music left playing for us as we entered the cottage. It really set the vibe. We were delayed and arrived much later in the evening than originally planned. Laura stayed in touch to make sure we would have no trouble finding the place as we would be arriving after dark. The weather had turned pretty chilly that evening as well. With these things in mind, she thoughtfully made a trip to the cottage to turn the lights and heat on for us. It was so incredibly thoughtful and appreciated after a long drive. She even checked in with us to make sure we made it back home safely. These are the small touches that go a long way with me. The communication was excellent and it's apparent how much time, thought, and preparation Laura puts into each visit. We wanted for nothing. If we ever get the opportunity to return, we will definitely be staying with her again. Thanks Laura! Much appreciation!
