The setting is quiet and peaceful....... the ocean washing along the shore will certainly lull you to sleep and will be the first sound you hear in the morning when you wake. Start your days walking on the rocky shore enjoying the vast views of Pigeon Hill Bay including local lobster fishermen hauling their traps just feet from the cottage. The Petit Manan Lighthouse can be seen in the distance and the fog horn can be heard. In the evening enjoy the fire pit located on the edge of the shore. This is Maine, The Way Life Should Be..... The cottage offers a main bedroom with a queen bed. The loft accessed by spiral stairs, has four twin beds. The loft also has a window air conditioner for your comfort.
Just minutes from the cottage enjoy a short hike to the top of Pigeon Hill. Once you crest the top, you can see for miles. A perfect spot for a picnic and great photo opportunities! If you prefer bird watching or happening upon a deer or rabbit, a great hike along the Hollinsworth Trail on Petit Manan Point is in order. While there, visit All Souls Chapel. Services are led by local residents and held on Sundays. (Seasonal)
Save a few hours to enjoy a boat ride to Petit Manan Lighthouse located two miles off shore. Daily boat tours leave from Back Shore Road (Acadia Puffin Tours) which is a 5 minute drive from the cottage.
Bring your kayaks, canoes, paddle boards etc. The bay is a great place to explore. It is tidal which means the tide will go in and out, changing every six hours.
Take a day trip to explore one of the nation's most beloved parks, Acadia National Park, (approximately 1 hour drive). Acadia at Schoodic Peninsula is a shorter drive, approximately 40 minutes. Both offer hiking trails through the forest or rocky shorelines. Bar Harbor hosts many restaurants and shops; a great place to spend the day.
The neighboring town of Milbridge has several restaurants and other stores to supply you will everything you may need during your stay. We look forward to hearing from you.

The cabin was clean and cozy and had just the right feel. We loved the back yard! My kids were out on the beach almost everday looking for seaglass and they found quite a bit. We made friends with a special deer that came to visit us in the backyard as well. Wanda was one of the best hosts we've had! She was very kind and informative! We hope to be able to come back for another visit in the future
We absolutely loved this little cottage. It is situated near the water and in a quiet area with wonderful views! Host did an amazing job of keeping in touch with us and gave us lots of great information about the area as we were first-time visitors to Maine.
A beautiful cottage on the beach. Very relaxing. A great place to watch the tides. Easy driving distance to other destinations like Bar Harbor and Lubec.
Absolutely loved the cottage and the amazing scenery.
Couldn’t have asked for a more amazing home base.
Host was quick to respond and had the place clean for us from the get go.
We loved the privacy and will be back !
The cabin was great and located in a beautiful area. There were lots of outdoor activities, shops and cute restaurants nearby. A true Maine experience. We will definitely be back!!
This is a great cottage and property! So lovingly cared for. Had everything we needed. Beautiful sunrises on the beach, amazing stars at night! We hope to return!!
We enjoyed the property. It was perfect for the two of us, clean, tidy and in a very nice location. The only improvements we would like to see would be a dishwasher and a king size bed, but washing a dish by hand for a week is fine and you can't complain to much about sleeping a little closer to your spouse.
Quiet side of life on the Maine Coast did not disappoint!
Plenty of local trails and sites to take in. Beautiful views over morning coffee or evening beverages! Property manager offered many great recommendations and was helpful for any needs. Strongly recommend if you are looking to get away from the tourist crowds, yet still close to explore Acadia and many of the other coastal trails and popular attractions.
My wife and I wanted to enjoy the Fall weather and the changing of the leaves. Well, we were blessed on both counts—60 degrees and the most beautiful reds, oranges and yellows filled our view. In addition, this little hideaway was serene and somehow management was able to arrange a welcome party of a porcupine and a doe! Simply beautiful!
My husband and I stayed here early October. The cottage is private and very relaxing. It is a very clean and well-stocked property. The host is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We hiked around Acadia, Schoodic Peninsula, and visited the very busy town of Bar Harbor. We also got the opportunity to ‘Catch our Dinner’ in Corea. There is so much to do around the area but our favorites were Cadillac Mountain, the lobster boat tour and spending time at the cottage, watching the deer (they love the apple trees😊, also seen a porcupine walk by the porch!) and having a campfire by the water. A little bit of a drive to different destinations which we did not mind because we loved the tranquility of the area. We absolutely loved the cottage!
Our cottage was beautiful, very clean and felt like being home. The area is very peaceful and quiet with a great view of the ocean. Our hostess was friendly and helpful. We loved our visit and most likely return.
This is our second time staying at this house. The property is perfect for a couple, clean, wonderful ocean view, comfortable stay. Unfortunately, we will never stay here again, the property manager sent us numerous text regarding " residual moisture on clean dishes ". This really soured the experience.
This cottage was exceptionally clean. It was in a quiet beautiful location on the water a great place to relax. It was the perfect size for the two of us. Hiking trails were just down the road and Acadia Schoodiac was about a half an hour away.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Beautiful location on an incredibly peaceful inlet. Perfect place to relax and enjoy the Maine coast scenery away from all of the crowds in Acadia. The cottage is very clean and well furnished, lots of good advice from Wanda on where to get food and hiking in the area.
We stayed at the Who New cottage for our honeymoon, and it was perfect. Everything was clean and pristine when we arrived, and we had everything we needed. It's very private on the waterfront side and has great proximity to some beautiful hikes. We reccomend it highly!
Our stay at this cottage was outstanding. Return trips are like coming home and we can’t wait for our third stay. The property is exactly as described and pictured. Wanda ensured that our stay was relaxing. This is a great place for a couple, friends, or family.
