Perfect

Our stay here was outstanding. It was so quite, so peaceful, so beautiful. It was difficult for us to make ourselves leave just to explore the area. The cottage is charming and well appointed with nice linens, comfortable bed and everything you'll need for a lovely stay. Our hosts were the best; thoughtful & helpful without ever being intrusive. If you want to stay on the Maine coast, don't miss this lovely place. We saw loons, cormorants, ducks and seals every day along one eagle siting.

Lobster, Wild Blueberry Pie—Oh my!!

My husband and I stayed at The Raven’s Nest for 1 week at the end of September, to celebrate our 25th anniversary. The cottage was very clean, comfortable and cozy. We ate the best lobster, wild blueberry pie, mussels and oysters everyday! We built a fire out back a few times and toasted marshmallows. We truly had everything we needed and more. Carol, the host and her husband Les were friendly and had wonderful local information. We flew into Portland and spent the first and last day there. Lots of wonderful shopping and restaurants! We took day trips to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Deer Isle and Ellsworth to the LL Bean outlet store! We would love to come back to Bue Hiill and stay at The Raven’s Nest again! Absolutely awesome experience!!

Our Stay at Ravens Nest

Our stay at Ravens Nest was great! When we arrived it was raining hard due to Hurricane Lee passing through the area. Leslie and Carol came out and offered to help us unload our vehicle. We found the cabin to be very clean with all the accommodations we expected and the grounds, well the grounds are just beautiful. We recommend this rental property to anyone who visits the Down East part of Maine. It’s a jewel.

Raven's Nest-a bit of Heaven

Particularly impressed with kindness and generosity of our hosts, Leslie and Carol. Cottage extremely comfortable and well equipped and setting at water's edge could not be beat. They kept us amply supplied with fresh veggies from their garden which was a real plus. Extremely helpful with discovering the area. Beautiful and serene. Highly recommend to anyone.
