The 'Quintessential Maine Cottage' located on along a beautiful rock beach is the perfect spot for a romantic getaway, or for a retired couple who enjoy would enjoy a peaceful island retreat, or an inspirational location for an artist or writer to work. This is one of the few shorefront cottages that allow pets.
Picture yourself sitting on the deck watching the lobster boats hauling in their traps, or enjoy a stroll along the rock beach shell seaking, or take part in a favorite past time of 'bouying'...searching for bouys washed up along the shore and add them to the cottage's collection. Down on the beach you will find the perfect 'Lobster Rock' where you could bring a picnic or enjoy a lobster bake right on the shore...a 'must do' Maine tradition.
This private, quiet location offers solace and relaxation, while still offering modern conveniences of WiFi, internet TV, and a washer/dryer. Within a quick drive to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, this cottage is perfect for those who want the best of both worlds...a busy tourist center with the quiet seaside retreat.
Under new management, previous guests will notice a brighter, fresher look, as well as many tasteful updates. Clean and comfy, but with a rustic Maine style Foxfield Cottage is the perfect place to spend time while visiting Mount Desert Island and all it has to offer.
Spend the morning hiking, then afternoon High Tea at the Jordan Pond House. A driving tour of Acadia's Park Loop Road and a trip to Cadillac Mountain should be on everyone's list of things to do. With many shopping and eating choices in the local towns of Bass Harbor, Southwest Harbor, Northeast Harbor and Bar Harbor....there is always something for every taste and desire.
With a cozy fire in the wood stove, rainy days will offer a chance to relax and enjoy a good read or a work on a challenging puzzle...Foxfield Cottage has many books, magazines, and puzzles to entertain you.
This is a special place that will remain in your heart long after your visit. Come make some great memories with us!
