About this property

Secluded Saltwater Cabin "Piney Home"

Beautiful, rustic one bedroom cabin located in acres of woods on a lively tidal salt pond. Ten minutes from cultural Blue Hill with its offerings of music, theater, dining, brew pub and art galleries. Near Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park and Deer Isle. Enjoy kayaking and swimming. Please sign the liability waiver if you use our kayaks. We have a swim dock with a ladder that has a ramp from the shore. The water was in the 70's this summer. Sunsets, abundant bird life and cool ocean breezes can be appreciated from the deck, outdoor shower, fire pit, or hammock . It is quiet and peaceful!

Piney hill had everything we needed for our stay- above and beyond. We loved the dock and the view and the outdoor shower. The bed was comfortable and everything was just perfect for our 20th anniversary trip.

Wonderful time at the Piney Home

Our stay was just perfect. A very relaxing few days. The back porch was delightful to eat breakfast on looking over the pond. The home was so cozy.

Overall, the property was nice but we would not stay again. The pictures of the outside and the salt pond do not do it justice. It is more beautiful in person! However, we found the cabin to be a bit more than rustic, and somewhat dirty. There were tons of spider webs and spiders, rat poop under the sink and everything just had a bit of a smell. This is a cabin in Maine so I understand some of these things happen, and I feel like the pictures mostly were accurate so I can't completely blame the owner. The biggest issues for us though were the bed, which was extremely creaky and how small the indoor shower was. My husband could not even fit. If you go into this thinking very rustic, oldish cabin, and plan to spend most of your time outside, I think it would be worth the stay due to the price.

Great trip to Piney Home

All my wife and I can say is this trip ranked at the top of our travels and the Piney Home cabin made the stay more special. The quaint cabin and extraordinary setting was just what we love. We will be back again.

PINEY PARADISE

Driving the long road to piney, we could feel the mysticism of the forest overcoming us. As we rounded the last corner, the palace of pleasure revealed itself, atop the salted water cliffs. The end

Comfortable and Ideal Location

My stay at Piney Home with my chihuahua was wonderful. Arriving the first day, the salt pond beyond the cottage nearly brought me to tears. How lucky that I got a whole week to gaze out at the fog, birds, seaweed and tidal flats fir a whole week. Lovely to be so close to the Schoodic peninsula. Wonderful tidepooling and swimming at the Blue Hill Falls bridge area. Well stocked house, simple but well curated. Thank you!

Perfect Getaway

We decided to cancel our fancy anniversary dinner reservation within minutes of arriving at Piney Home. We knew we wanted to spend every minute possible enjoying this perfect home. Aside from the stunning sunset and tranquil views, the home is also unbelievably private and secluded (we only saw one boat during our 5 night stay). The highlights included the well-stocked kitchen, fire pit, exposed outdoor shower, and comfortable bed. We would not change one thing about our incredible time at Piney Home, and we're already figuring out when we can come back!

Cozy and Relaxing

We simply loved our fall getaway at Piney Home. The cabin is small but sufficient for two and very well equipped for guests. Conveniently located to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Lots of hiking trails in the area. Ended several nights sitting around a campfire taking in the sunset over the water.

20 Year Anniversary Trip

Our stay at the Piney Home was exactly what was needed. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the stay and the location was perfect for us, secluded in the woods with a beautiful view of Salt pond. It was so nice to get unplugged in peace and quiet for several days.

Our family bought this property as undeveloped land and have had fun building a quiet vacation retreat. We live year round in Blue Hill.

What makes this property unique

I think you will enjoy the water, the bird life and the quiet here. Blue Hill is popular in the summer for its vacation opportunities. Explore a National Park with hiking and biking. Take a ferry to Isle au Haut for the day.
