Holiday rentals with a kayak in Hancock County

Tim has an incredible home and beautiful views. The waterfront property is so serene and the space had everything my group of friends needed. Tim was also very responsive and accommodating to us and we very much appreciated that. Wish we could have stayed longer, would recommend!

Seven stars out of five! We have stayed in numerous places in Maine over the years, and given a lot of five star reviews. This one surpasses them all, hence the off the charts grade. It is incredibly well provisioned, spotless, spacious, inviting, and has an enormous porch with a view so lovely it looks fake. You can't even hear your neighbors, let alone see them. We heard loons, crows, and one very belligerent owl, but not once did we hear our neighbors. The only way you will know the tenant is home, is that a car will park opposite on the side of the house from you. The fire pit makes it easy and convenient to host a fire, even if it is only for 45 minutes or so. Kayaks are provided along with life jackets. At night you can see millions of stars. Place is so peaceful and comfortable, we almost didn't make it into the park haha. We will definitely be back!

A great stay at this lovely, cozy home—yet again! Already looking forward to returning in July. You’ll find it all here: It’s quiet, with all the amenities you need (and nothing you don’t), the pretty water views, and a location that provides access to good restaurants and the beautiful Acadia National Park.

Such a magical, historical and peaceful place. It was nice seeing Acadia but we couldn’t wait to get away from the crowds and back to the quiet of this beautiful place. Thank you Brady!

The view was amazing! Waking up to a beautiful sunrise and laying down and watching a gorgeous sunset was easily one of the best things about the trip. The sound of the waves crashing and sounds of nature were serene. The weather was beautiful which helped take all of this in.

This welcoming home is spotless and cozy. Situated on the bank of a picturesque lake, we were greeted by the peaceful sounds of nature and lovely shades of fall colors. The thoughtful hosts had left tasty treats on the table for us, along with local suggestions. The kitchen was well-equipped and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the bathrooms were clean. It was an easy drive to Acadia and the coast as well as into the north Maine woods. If you are looking for a house that instantly feels like home, stay here. Jerry and Kristi, thank you for being great hosts. We had a wonderful stay!

Right from the beginning of the booking, the experience was exceptional. Communication was great, house was perfectly set-up, clean and peaceful! All of the amenities, furniture, and furnishings in the home were perfect for a lake house! Little details were thought of by the hosts —even a bouquet of flowers. Highly recommend this space for families who want a peaceful and spread out home for their family but also great spaces to bring everyone together. Truly an exceptional experience in all areas.

Beautiful and cozy place. Had a great stay. Since we visited during Fall season, the place was peaceful and full of Fall colors. Acadia national park is nearby and has some great places to visit during leaf peeping time.

Really enjoyed our stay here. The views were lovely, the lake was refreshing, the beds were comfortable, lots of kitchen stuff, and the showers were hot. The house mostly has what you need. It could use a few more dish towels and bath towels. The long drive to Acadia got tiresome.

We love this little spot! It’s beautiful and private.

Wonderful stay in an incredible location. Cute, clean, and cozy cottage with everything you could need to feel at home while tucked away in a magical spot.

Can’t say enough about Craig’s beautiful lakeside cottage. If you like remote, peaceful and being close to nature this is for you. The house and contents seemed brand new and they had thought of everything we could want, right down to pancake mix, maple syrup and Maine blueberries for our breakfasts. An easy drive to Acadia. Craig was communicative, friendly and helpful. We had a fantastic stay and hope we’ll be back.

I could not overstate the beauty and peacefulness of this location. Good proximity to Bar Harbor and Acadia but private with stunning views. The description and photos are accurate, we found the host responsive and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

This is a very comfortable and peaceful place to stay and the view is amazing. When you walk into the living room, it feels like you’re right on top of the lake. The lake is really only a few feet away and the neighborhood is definitely walkable. We went for a quiet weekend away but if we had wanted to canoe, kayak, fish, grill or whatever, it seemed like everything was there for us to use. I was very impressed with the host and all the amenities. Robert is very friendly and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our time on the lake and would definitely recommend staying here. We were talking about coming back again but next time with our kids. Thank you Robert!

One of the most beautiful and peaceful places we have stayed at. It was perfect for our honeymoon. The cabin was clean, quiet, and comfortable. You felt right at home and there were some personal touches with fresh flowers and a carved Jack-o-lantern . The cabin is located around 45 minutes from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Maureen was very responsive and helpful in her communication. We would definitely recommend this and definitely will be back!

Great location right on the lake! Great for a small group of family. 2 privated bedrooms and an open loft with 2 twin beds.

We had an amazing stay at this place. Felt like home from home. Got to spend quality time with family in the area. The weather wasn’t great but it’s Maine in Winter. Shelby was great about sending someone out to plow & sand the road to the property whilst we were there. We would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at Patty’s place was great. The cabin is very cozy and extremely comfortable. The place has a great hot water heater which allowed our group to shower after visiting the park while others made dinner. It’s definitely a bit of a drive from Acadia, but Patty definitely makes this clear in the description. Overall, a fantastic stay. Could not recommend this place enough.

Jennifer is a great responsive host, and our stay exceeded all expectations. The location was secluded and gorgeous with wonderful water views, hiking nearby, and the camp had everything we needed. Highly recommend Jennifer’s spot

A great private place to stay when visiting Acadia! Only about 40 minutes away from Bar Harbor.

The cabin was very nice. It has a lot of games for entertainment and has great views of the lake. There is only one heater for the entire cabin and the place was cold when we arrived. However, it warmed up very quickly. Location is amazing: 50min away from Acadia NP. The only problem that we found is that there was no body wash available. I am sure Dan would have brought some if we had asked, since he provided a hair dryer when requested. Our stay was very positive, we would come again! P.D.: the cabin does not have a microwave, but has all the other things you might need for cooking, even grilling.

The cabin was very comfortable, quiet, and just as described. Everything you need for cooking is already there. The bed was comfortable, everything was clean, wifi was amazing. We went kayaking one day and it was beautiful. There are tons of rocks just below the surface of the water near the islands but you can see them because the water is so clear. The drive to the cabin is a long gravel road and thankfully we have 4WD because it might have been harder to get up the driveway from the cabin if we didn’t. There were loons on the pond every day and night but they were fun to see and hear. We also had some hummingbirds visit the feeder at the cabin and loved watching them our whole stay. The water from the faucet is from the lake but it’s so clear you almost wouldn’t know it. I would highly recommend staying here if you want a quiet, natural place to relax.

Zack and Breezy were so kind and helpful during our stay at the cabin. They treated us like friends and not just guests. They provided recommendations and went out of their way to assist us in answering questions about the area. We are so grateful for their hospitality!

I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The location was fantastic, the cleanliness was impeccable, and the comfort of the house exceeded my expectations. The view was stunning, and I loved how the house was fully equipped with everything I needed. It truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this place and would love to stay here again in the future. Thank you so much Lindsay!
