Photos and Description of the Gouldsboro vacation cabin rental
3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 1 half bathroom, sleeps 9 or 10

A great spot to just relax and enjoy the view. Our renters agree that the photographs don't do it justice. A large great room has floor to ceiling windows overlooking the bay, and has a stone fireplace so you can watch the sunset or sit by the fire. The kitchen is very well appointed and includes just about everything the chef desires except the food. There is a full laundry room with a washer and a dryer. No need to waste hours at the laundromat. The rec room includes a ping pong table, games, video tapes, and satellite TV as well as a cozy stone fireplace and a seating area to relax and enjoy the fire or the spectacular view of Frenchman Bay. The children's bedroom is furnished with a full/twin bunk bed, a toddler bed, and a Pack n Play. In addition there are two beautifully furnished bedrooms with queen-size beds. There is a queen size sofa bed in the great room, and two comfortable inflatable beds which each sleep two adults.

The home is located about 35 minutes from Bar Harbor, the hub of activities on Mount Desert Island and gateway to Acadia National Park. Bar Harbor offers dozens of restaurants and shops and also kayak and bike rentals.

Hikers who prefer less crowded trails will find that nearby Black Mountain and Schoodic Mountain offer gorgeous panoramic vistas of lakes, ponds, Frenchman Bay, and the Porcupine Islands without the large numbers of hikers found on the better known trails of Acadia.

Winter Harbor, just 5 minutes away, offers galleries, shops and dining, all located in a quaint lobstering village with a picturesque town harbor and dock. A passenger ferry runs numerous trips daily from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor. Lobster pounds abound, and two are located within a couple of miles of the house. Swim and fish at nearby Jones Pond or Donnell Pond at the foot of Schoodic Mountain. Kayaks can be rented in nearby Birch Harbor and kayak tours can also be arranged.

The entrance to the Schoodic Section of Acadia National Park is a few minutes from the house by car or bike, and is a beautiful 'secret' spot which is visited by only a few of the thousands of visitors to Acadia.

The Perfect Getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: January 16, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
With all the hustle and bustle of the holidays, this cabin was the perfect way to start off the New Year. Pure serenity.
A couple of deer wandered by. A fox meandered. A blazing fire in the stone fireplace in the beautiful main room upstairs or blazing fire in the beautiful stone fireplace downstairs. Breath in the clean air. Relax. Play cards. Grab some lobsters straight off the boat. Watch the tide roll in and out while sitting in rocking chairs overlooking the incredible ocean views. Warm and cozy. Clean.
I almost don't want to tell anyone about this special gem. The owners know exactly how to get away with this special gem nestled in the woods. Everything you need is right there.
We'd go back in a heartbeat. It's perfect.

I want to tell you how much we enjoyed our short week in your Maine home. The location was stunning, both in the sun and rain. As most attractions in the area were closed we took advantage of that great stone fireplace and the comfy couch to lounge in. I haven't enjoyed doing nothing so much for a long time. I even got a couple of good books read. The people of Winter Harbor were great and very welcoming.
We look forward to renting from you again. I haven't found a more relaxing place anywhere. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.

Wonderful Vacation Spot!

5 of 5
Submitted: September 4, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
We had a fabulous time vacationing in this wonderful house. The location is beautiful and quiet...away from the touristy Bar Harbor, but the nearby ferry can take you easily take you to Bar Harbor for a visit. The house is clean, it's stocked with all the amenities you would need for cooking up a delicious lobster dinner, and mussels picked right from the property! My husband and I stayed here with another couple and their baby. We all had a great time. The split level house with two master bedrooms is a great set up for families.

Beautiful log home

5 of 5
Submitted: August 14, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
What a beautiful home!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you are interested in a quiet, relaxing home then this is the house for you. The sunsets are gorgeous. The views of Frenchman bay are spectacular. The home is well equipped for any of your needs. If you want to cook lobster they have everything you will need and more.
The schoodic peninsula of Acadia National Park is close to the house and it is the best kept secret of Acadia National Park. What wonderful views from every stop you make.
The owner also suggested two galleries that they like and let me tell you we loved them as well. The granite gallery is so interesting and the owners were amazing. Chapter two in Corea was also great.
When you book a house rental on-line you never know for sure what it is like till you get there but this house is just as nice in person as it was on-line.

Beautiful yet homey

5 of 5
Submitted: July 10, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
I first vacationed in this amazing log home in July of 2011 and I could not wait to return. Immediately upon entering, you are greeted with a spectacular view of Frenchman Bay. This home is warm and inviting and offers room enough for a large family/group but still feels cozy. The great room and the bedrooms are large and well appointed. The furnishings and decor are beautiful yet homey - I never felt as if I could not truly live while in this space. I could not have been more comfortable or felt more at home here than if I had been a personal guest of the owners. I eagerly await vacationing in this little piece of paradise again next summer.
