Intimate cottage near Acadia national park

We are in the country on a large lake away from the tourist crowds. Yet we are close enough to the national park, Bar Harbor, Northeast and Southwest Harbors, Blue Hill, Castine and other Downeast towns for easy day trips. Come enjoy the sounds of loons, waves and frogs at night. See stars without interference from city lights. Enjoy fishing and kayaking in the lake. Have fun exploring the hiking trails of Acadia, the bike and carriage paths, or the scenic roadways of the park. Visit the farmers’ markets, occasional craft show or the Blue Hill agricultural Fair around Labor Day. Or sit on the deck next to the lake, read a book , and relax.
We have two kayaks available for use at the cabin. They are equipped with paddles life vests and cushions.

Cozy lake cabin in Maine
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this lovely little cabin right on the lake! It was very homey and comfortable. I really enjoyed being able to sit in the living room and enjoy beautiful views of the lake through the large windows. It’s a little off the beaten path but well worth the trip to get there. Easy access to the charming town of Ellsworth and just a short drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Thanks, Rob, for your hospitality and for being a wonderful host!

Lovely Maine lake cottage
My husband and I enjoyed our stay so much! The lake is beautiful and we enjoyed watching the clouds and the wildlife all around (though we did not access the lake). We found the cottage an ideal refuge with easy access (under an hour) to all of Acadia and the nearby harbors. We also enjoyed the Blue Hill Fait. The cottage is fabulously supplied and adorably decorated. The bed was comfortable and we wanted for nothing in terms of kitchen items and small appliances. The hosts were immediately responsive by text to our questions and they gave us lots of great ideas for restaurants and local and Acadia sights. We would love to stay again!

Great place to stay. A bit farther from Acadia than I was thinking, but beautiful place.
Great place. Clean, really well equipped, comfortable bed. Beautiful view of lake. Quiet. Really everything we hoped for. It took us almost an hour to get to Acadia/ Bar Harbor, and traffic waiting to get off Desert Island in evening, so you might not want to plan a lots of visiting Acadia. But wonderful house/ location and hosts. We would definitely come back to the house if in the area. For us it was worth the driving.

Cozy lake house
This is a cozy cabin tucked just above Graham Lake on a shaded property. The windows in the main room and deck have great views of the water. The lake is down a short staircase with a rock beach. The home is comfortable and clean, with appliances and facilities that make it easy to prepare meals. A perfect size for a couple, with places to sit and enjoy the view. The easy access to Ellsworth restaurants and reasonable drive to MDI are a plus. Hosts are responsive and helpful.

Great little cabin right on the lake
We stayed for a week in this great little cabin which sits right at the edge of Graham Lake. It is a cozy space ideal for a couple. The kitchen is well stocked and equipped. We enjoyed being able to get lakefront views from the large windows, and kayaking around the lake. Trips to Acadia are reasonable during summer tourist season (under an hour away). Any small issues we had were resolved quickly by the owner. Lake levels were nice and high during our stay but do fluctate.

Lovely and cozy lake cabin
Even though other reviews mentioned it, I was amazed how well supplied the cabin was. The view was lovely with a nice deck. Comfortable bed, lots of seating options, Wi-Fi worked great, and there was even a working kerosene lamp we could use during a brief power outage. Communication with hosts was swift and pleasant. It is a little bit of a drive to Acadia, but a nice retreat to come home to after a day of exploring. Nearby Ellsworth has excellent grocery stores. We enjoyed our stay!
