Sea Spray - Modern Oceanfront Cottage with Views of Cadillac Mountain & Acadia

****************** Imagine scanning the internet for your perfect vacation home - on the waterfront, quaint but modern, small enough to manage but ample room to relax and enjoy the quiet. THIS IS SEA SPRAY.

Two bedrooms with one full and one half bath. Within feet of Frenchmen's Bay, a glorious view of Bar Harbor and Cadillac Mountain - the crown jewel of Acadia National Park.

This property is conveniently located in Hancock, between Bar Harbor (Mount Desert Island) and the Acadia National Park Schoodic Peninsula allowing for easy access to the hustle and bustle of everything Bar Harbor has to offer but offering the quiet, "off the beaten path" break that you have been looking for.

Fully equipped with all the modern conveniences yet packaged in the traditional Downeast Maine Cedar Shake, this home is positioned well off the road for the ultimate intimate get-away. Enjoy the full kitchen or take a short drive to local lobster pounds to enjoy the sweetest lobster you have ever eaten. Ample off road parking for two cars. Complete private use of the house and property with the exception of the on site detached garage. Perfect for two but easily accommodates up to three guests.

Low tide encourages walks along the water’s edge and many guests enjoy the treasure hunt for sea glass or the rare lobster buoy! This area inspires some of the most talented artists. Sea Spray boasts an eclectic sampling of these local artists.

Enjoy the flat screen TV, cable, wireless internet, Apple TV or bring your own DVD's in case you are planning to stay home. Perhaps you are looking for a long needed rest - enjoy the King Size Sleep Number bed in the Master bedroom or the new Queen bed in the guest room. Most days offer a wonderful breeze off the water but Sea Spray has air conditioning for that occasional hot and humid day. New full size Washer and Dryer are included.

Take a seat on the deck, relax on the Adirondack chairs by the water, or enjoy a nice fire in the firepit under the stars. Whichever you choose, enjoy your favorite drink as you breathe in the sea air.

Local attractions offer ample hiking, biking, kayaking, mountain climbing and more. Your hostesses are eager to share recommendations for special hikes or other local attractions.

Sharon and Carol are your hostesses. They vacationed in Maine in 2015 and fell in love with the rugged coast and the unspoiled natural beauty that still exists in this area. They loved it so much they made it their full time home and live year round in close proximity to Sea Spray. Living in the area allows them to provide the best personal guest experience instead of the all too common distant owner who has placed their rental in the hands of a management company. They strive to maintain guest privacy while being totally available when needed.

This vacation rental is beautifully decorated, with calming hues and quirky art pieces, making the visitor feel at home from day one. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and all of the essentials for meal preparation. The binder detailing all aspects of the property and suggestions for restaurants nearby was well done and clear. The view of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park across Frenchman's Bay is beautiful! The area where the home is located is very peaceful and was a great home base for our adventures. I would highly recommend this rental property to anyone looking to vacation in this part of Maine.

This is an awesome property. Sharon and Carol are great hosts and this was the best VRBO setup we have ever used. It had everything we needed to enjoy our week on the Maine coast. The views were amazing and it was a great place to relax or stage for more adventures in the area. I highly recommend this house and would definitely book again when we make our way back north.

We had the most wonderful time staying at Sea Spray. The cottage was perfectly clean, and Sharon and Carol were excellent hosts!
