The pictures don’t do the property justice. The view of the bay and MDI, especially at sunrise and dusk is just breath-taking! Our family of five plus my mother loved our time at the cottage. The kitchen was very well equipped, the rooms were very clean and comfortable, and there was plenty of space to spread out inside and out. Aside from 3 day trips into Acadia, we spent our time looking up at the stars, building a campfire, looking for starfish at low tide, skipping rocks, and picking blueberries for our pancakes. We caught sight of seals, porpoises, and a bald eagle. In hindsight, we should have rented kayaks - it would have been fun to kayak near the seals. While the cottage is a bit of a distance from Acadia, the beauty, peace and quiet of the location was worth the drive. We also enjoyed Pugnuts for really good gelato and Perry’s for lobster. We had been wanting to visit this part of Maine for years and are so glad we chose to stay at Phil and Donna’s cottage. They were very responsive and kind and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
