About this property

Oceanfront property with spectacular views of Acadia Park and cruise ships.

Set your kayaks directly into the clear blue waters from this creatively furnished home away from home located on Frenchman's Bay, a short drive from one of the world's most beautiful National Parks. Take walks along the secluded beach, collecting shells and sea glass. Wake up each morning to watch the lobstermen bring in their catch, possibly your lunch, right in front of the property where you can see thousands of colorful lobster buoys floating on the ocean. At the end of a fun and active day, you can relax and enjoy wonderful nights out by the fire pit while creating memories with your friends and family, all while you are surrounded by the beautiful scenic landscape that will help you recognize why Maine's wonderful allure has attracted so many people from around the world. Completely redone in 2016, this house comfortably accommodates 9 people and can sleep 10 with a role away bed and is equipped with three full bathrooms. Here you can enjoy easy mornings and cozy nights while maintaining a comfortable inviting living space for you, your friends and loved ones to share.

The newly added second story master bedroom contains a walk-in closet leading to the private bathroom and has a more spectacular views. There is a lovely dining room attached to the kitchen and living room and the other bedrooms are set just down the hall with the other two restrooms. This property has amenities such as the use of two kayaks, a large gas grill and a wide long deck that lets you relax and enjoy the sunset and sunrise over Cadillac Mountain, or watch the cruise ships as they sail into Bar Harbor for the day. Take a walk down the beach where there is an old boat landing on a public beach, or take a short walk up the road to Lamoine State Park to enjoy the activity there, as boaters and fishermen enter and exit the waters of Frenchman's Bay and children play on the play ground.

The property is also available for those special events in the spring and fall if you are looking for million dollar views on a quite 3-acre lot right on the ocean with a walkable beach.

Beautiful, tranquil home away from home in Maine

We visited this unique and wonderful home and property with our three college age kids. It was perfect for relaxation, playing games, cooking dinner and taking a break from busy days exploring.The hosts are genuinely interesting and caring people. The house is decorated beautifully with obvious love and talent. We received lots of great advice on things to do and places to eat as well.We stay in VRBO’s at least once a month and this is definitely top of our list! Highly recommend and hope that we can come back someday.

This is my second time staying here this time with my side of the family. I grow more and more in love with Maine every time we visit and this property helps that immensly. The hosts are amazingly nice and have made the inside as beautiful as outside. It was a pleasure to be able to enjoy it so much again this year. Highly recommended for families that love the coastline.

Great family stay!

We had 3 generations staying at the house for a family wedding and it was the perfect size/space for us to enjoy time together in between events. There are more stairs than we anticipated or noticed in the listing, so we had to be mindful of that with our grandfather's mobility, but we made it work! Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful retreat, the ocean and Acadia in your backyard!

We loved our stay and found this to be perfect for exploring Acadia and surrounding areas. The property was even nicer than described, with beautiful art everywhere and nicely done fixtures and amenities. Highly recommend coffee on the back deck to watch the tide come in and the lobster boats to go out!

Amazing family vacation

This property was amazing! Beautiful views, access to the ocean and away from the crowds. It was an easy 40 minute drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. My children and niece and nephew really enjoyed exploring the tide pools. The house itself is clean comfortable and well equipt. This was an awesome vacation!

Peaceful waterfront home that was great for whole family

We had a great stay -- the location on the water is gorgeous and very private - you can't see any neighbors from the back deck and the stars were beautiful each night. In the mornings we watched the lobster boats come through to check their traps as we had our morning coffee before heading off to Acadia to explore the park. Kayaking off the shore was definitely a highlight and we enjoyed to bonfire pit.

Excellent, peaceful location

Our family stayed here with our 7 and 11 year old. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and included a lobster/clam pot which we enjoyed using for a lobster bake dinner. The view was lovely and exploring low tide waters was a highlight for the kids. It’s a fun, eclectic home and we hope to return again.

Love Lamoine

This was a great location for us. It was the quietest place we have ever stayed & it was just what we needed. The weather was not stellar but we made the best of it. Bar Harbor & Acadia were busy - as we were warned - but if you prefer a less crowded environment- there are plenty of options. The home was well supplied with everything one could need. The owner was easy to reach & made sure all was well with us. We would stay again if we come back.

Beautiful secluded location for Acadia vacation

We had a wonderful time at Eric and Gina's place! The location is amazing - right on the bay so you can watch the sunset over the water while sitting by the firepit! It was about a 30 min drive onto Mount Desert Island, so not too bad. The house itself was clean and adorable - tons of fun creative touches! The beds were comfortable, there were lots of essentials like soaps and paper towels and they were super responsive if we needed anything at all. Hihgly recommend!

Last of summer back to school

Love the location and the house feels like home with a million dollar view. All your strees from everyday life leaves your body as you walk through the door and look out the back windows. If I had anything negative to say is I wish there was a way to get on the beach fromthe back yard

About the host

Hosted by Eric Davidson

Host profile image
We have made the property our home for the last five years. We completely updated the home in early 2015 when we purchased with the plans to stay here for ever. We enjoy sharing our home with visitors to this beautiful area.

Why they chose this property

Everyone that has been here say we have the best views of anywhere they have ever been. From the living room you can see Mt Desert Island, Cadillac Mt, Frenchmen's Bay and you have one of the few walkable beaches at the back yard. The home is warm and inviting and as comfortable for two as it is for nine. We hope you love the house as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

Million Dollar view
Fantastic house layout
walkable beach
two kayaks you can take down to the beach in front of the house where you can paddle out into French's Bay
Short drive to Bar Harbor, and Acadia National Forest
NO TRAFFIC !!!!
Fire Pit in back yard with ocean view, sit and watch the lights of cars coming down Cadillac Mt and more stars than you have ever been able to see before
