Photos and Description of the Acadia National Park vacation cottage rental 2 Bedrooms, 2 Full Bathrooms, Sleeps 4 maximum

'Beau Se Jour' is a newer cottage designed to be reminiscent of the shingle style cottages which have always been unique to Maine's seacoast. Sunfilled rooms are tastefully decorated with vintage wicker, hooked rugs, and nautical accessories. Birch bark railings, a gas stone fireplace, and a moose-horn chandelier give this cottage a distinctive look and feel of an earlier time. Enjoy relaxing on the large eat-in screened porch with panoramic ocean and mountain views. This magnificent setting sits on several secluded acres on Frenchman Bay, and has breathtaking views of Cadillac Mountain and Acadia National Park. A rare opportunity to enjoy your own private beach (no public access) for swimming, clam digging, and long walks along the endless shore.

Beau Se Jour is truly a delight.

Dan & Leona South Shore of Massachusetts
Review Submitted: August 11, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Beau Se Jour is truly a delight. We have rented vacation homes Downeast for over 15 years and, no doubt, this was the finest property we have enjoyed. Situated centrally and very private, it is ideal for exploring Mt. Desert Island and Acadia National Park, the gems further Downeast while being handy to Ellsworth with markets, movies, shopping etc. We loved having Bar Harbor Golf Course so close and arranged to have a kayak left at the house for our stay. With fair or not so fair weather, the vistas are stunning, the shore ever changing and the house is warm, open, immaculate and thoughtfully appointed with items that those "from away" appreciate: guide books, spare toiletries, spices, plenty of towels, linens and a full kitchen complement. Whenever I thought "oh gee I wish I had a...", I hunted around an lo and behold it was in the house. Ceiling fan keeps things cool in the day and a lovely gas fire warms the soul in the evening. The grounds are lovely and well tended. Strolling from the house through the area is quiet and enjoyable. It is clear that Laura has gone to great effort to make this a comfortable inviting home for visitors: she has succeeded beyond measure. The seasonal caretakers also deserve high praise for maintenance and keeping the property top notch. You will want for nothing except a few additional weeks' stay at Beau se Jour.

Truly a Gem!

Elizabeth and James Doylestown, PA
Review Submitted: August 3, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Laura & Robert and their beautiful property are true gems in the rental world!

Upon arrival we found the house to be in beautiful shape, and it was in fact decorated to the nines, as other posters have indicated. The vistas are just as amazing as the little details you will discover throughout the house, and you will find yourself taking photos of both the interior as well as your outdoor surroundings due to their equal beauty.

Though the house is a bit out of the way, I must say the views of the mountains from this rental make up for the extra driving one might have to do to arrive at their trail heads.

Laura and Robert, thank you again for letting us stay in your beautiful abode!

'Till Next Time,
Elizabeth and James

Perfect Vacation Spot

Laurie & Carl Columbia County, NY
Review Submitted: June 8, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Camp Beau Se Jour is a vacation in itself! Robert and Laura pay attention to every detail and provide a beautiful and comfortable location for you to call "home" during your vacation. Everything you need is provided to cook your own meals, enjoy a steam shower, spend cozy evenings by the fireplace or just sit and enjoy the amazing views. The private beach is wonderful for walking, exploring and sitting to enjoy the view and sounds. A quick drive to Bar Harbor provides fantastic dining, shopping and sightseeing. Acadia National Park is a must-see and the audio CD/tapes provided give you a guided tour at your own pace (we went back twice!).

Thank you for a memorable vacation that we plan on repeating next year! :0)

Nonpariel!

Maureen & Peter Andover, Mass. USA
Review Submitted: August 28, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
It simply doesn't get better. When we arrived, the place was immaculate, and everything neat as a pin. Even when it rained, we really didn't mind, because it was so delightful inside. The owners clearly have a penchant for detail. The place is sublimely furnished as if by a high-end New York interior designer. The kitchen is very well equipped (we ate out only once, at Havana, a must). The setting is ultra-private, with the evening quiet interrupted only by the occasional hoot of an owl. Despite the solitude, anything you need is a short hop away. It is very seldom, if ever, that one encounters a rental property of this quality. It's like being a special guest all to yourself in someone's private home. We hated to leave Beau Se Jour!

Fantastic Week At The Cottage

John & Barb - Happy Campers Maryland
Review Submitted: August 28, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
My wife and I and 2 friends just spent a wonderful week in late July '08 at "The Cottage" and thoroughly enjoyed everything. The cottage was superb - clean, comfortable, perfect size, well appointed, remote, and cozy. Laura and Robert are to be commended for their pick of the perfect location - overlooking Frenchman's Bay - and their attention to detail throughout the home. They provided EVERYTHING which made our vacation absolutely perfect and very memorable. We happily and enthusiastically recommend "The Cottage" to all visitors of Acadia.
