Acadia Long Pond Waterfront Cottage on lake- private dock kayak hot tub Sleeps 6

*Available Year Round!* Pinon Cottage is nestled in a private wooded setting on Long Pond, a favorite pond on Mount Desert Island for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing and listening to the resident loons. Complete with its own dock on the pond, large deck with comfortable seating, hot tub, and screened in porch, this cottage is the perfect retreat for getting away from it all. Inside you will find quality furnishings and linens. With its central island location, you're never too far from any of the Island's villages, Acadia National Park, hiking on Beech Mountain, or picking up fresh produce at Beech Hill Farm.

In the summers, hike and bike the trails and mountains in Acadia National Park right from your door, walk down to the sandy beach of Seal Harbor, explore Bar Harbor and Southwest by boat or kayak. In the winters, cozy up by the fireplace, and enjoy the miles of cross country trails in the park. Bar Harbor stays open year round and the island is quiet and peaceful.

Notes:
Enjoy exclusive use of our canoe and two kayaks included with stay. We have a few life jackets, but if you need specific sizes best to bring your own life jackets if necessary.
The Hot Tub stays open all year.
Please do not ask to check in early. We need all the time to make the home perfect for your stay!

LAYOUT:
Main Level: A walkway from the driveway leads you to a large screened in porch with ping pong table. From there, enter the house into a great room with a wall of windows and doors facing the lake. Coupled with the warm wood on the floors and ceiling, this creates a very bright and inviting space. The living room with comfortable seating and a large wall-mounted television is open to a dining area with a table that accommodates eight, and a kitchen with an island that has two stools. Beyond the kitchen is a full bathroom with shower and a stacking washer/dryer. Next you will find a bedroom with two sets of bunk beds (1 with a trundle).
Upper Level: Stairs at the front entry lead to a bedroom with queen bed and a ½ bath. The bedroom has a window overlooking the Living Room, which has a shade for privacy. A large window and skylight provide plenty of light. Should you need it, there is an AC unit in this room.
Outside: Doors between the living area and dining area lead to a large deck with comfortable furniture and a hot tub. At the base of the deck is a foot wash and you will find an outdoor shower on the side of the house. Take the short path down to the dock and enjoy the water!

Great house near Acadia

We had a great visit. The house is adorable, cozy and well located in the Acadia area. The deck is a delightful place to relax on and enjoy the beautiful lake. It was great to have kayaks and a canoe to use. Keith, the caretaker is lovely and very responsive.

This is a great property! The home was clean with all the amenities we needed. From the lake, kayaks, hot tub, ping pong and outdoor shower, it had it all. We are a family of 6 with teenagers. Everyone was relaxed and entertained. Cellular was spotty and I was thankful for it. We hope to return someday!

Peaceful cabin in the woods

The tranquil lakeside cabin was perfect for our long weekend on Mount Desert Island. We were able to relax in the private hot tub after a day of exploring and kitchen table was a great location for family games. Since we were visiting 2 weeks before the Island fully opens for the summer season it was great to be able to cook in the well stocked kitchen. On our second night the clouds cleared and we caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights from the dock! I loved the all wooden interior and large windows overlooking the deck towards the lake. we were pleasantly surprised with the half bath off the master bedroom, this makes it easier for a small family to have a second toilet. Overall this is a great cottage for a couple or small family and the outdoor space is fabulous!

Best Acadia Get Away

We loved this house! We traveled with our 13 and 15 year oId boys and they said the house was the best part of the vacation. Bar Harbor and Acadia were packed with people so we really looked forward to coming back to the house after a long day. We relaxed on the deck, hung out in the hot tub, kayaked, canoed, played ping pong and swam! When we were kayaking we saw eagles and loons! The beds were super comfortable. Keith was really helpful when we checked in and answered all of our questions. Some of the hikes we did were really close to the house like Beech Mountain and Ship Harbor . We loved Beal's Lobster Pier and Mainely Meat BBQ. The Beech Hill Farm has organic vegetables which were fabulous. We mostly grabbed lunch out and then cooked at the house for dinner. We also went to the Town Hill Market which had soft serve ice cream, great sandwiches, wine, beer and grocery staples. We LOVED our stay here, it was hard to leave.

Wonderful 4 Night Stay

We had a wonderful 4 night stay here! The house and property are absolutely gorgeous and well kept. The landscaping is pristine. The inside of the house is super clean which we appreciated considering the pandemic, but we had zero concerns as soon as we walked inside. The home has everything you need. Great internet, cable TV in the living area and master bedroom. Plenty of towels and linens. We were able to wash clothes and towels as needed. Kitchen is stocked with glasses, plates, bowls, silverware, utensils...everything for cooking. Great patio and grill out back.....and of course the hot tub was amazing. The whole experience was also very private. We called to check in and when we arrived the house was unlocked with the keys inside. Was able to get hold of the property manager for a new propane tank for the grill with one phone call and it was resolved in minutes. This was the easiest check in/check out I've ever done on VRBO. Its so accessible too, you can literally get anywhere on MDI within 20 minutes and its just a gorgeous drive. Its so accessible to every entrance of Acadia National Park too. Overall it was a 5 star, fantastic stay.

4th return visit!

Thank you for hosting such a wonderful property! We look forward to our yearly visit to this specific home because it is modern, beautiful, spotless, and always well maintained. Communication with the property manager has always been fantastic. The location is stunning! We love the privacy and peacefulness, but appreciate the easy access to ANP. The home itself has everything needed to accommodate our family, and the hot tub, pingpong table, bunks, and kayaks are favorites of our girls. We can’t wait to visit again next year:) Thank you!

Quiet lakeside cottage

This is our 2nd time staying at Piñon Cottage. We love how peaceful and quiet it is surrounded by woods yet right by the beautiful lake. We hiked the Acadia trails everyday and loved getting in the hot tub to soothe our aching joints. The 1st floor of the cottage is a great hang out place with a big TV and comfy couch. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a nice big dining table. The location is so great beacause Southwest Harbor is close for eating out or going to the grocery store. Easy to get to Acadia trails. We hope to return again.

Just Paradise

The minute we opened the door and stepped into the cottage there was a group gasp at how beautiful the house was and view of the lake took our breath away. A perfect vacation with swimming and kayaking from the dock, families of ducks eating out of our hands, eating meals prepared in the well equipped kitchen and best of all, having an early sunrise coffee while listening to the loons sing their mournful song on the lake. Sheer paradise.

Wonderful private cottage

The cottage was everything that was promised. Location, location, location. The perfect place to split Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor. It has such a wonderful private, secluded feel. The Ability to have canoes and kayaks they are ready to use was an added bonus. I would definitely recommend the cottage to anyone seeking to get away and relax.
