Cozy Cottage on the Coast of Maine
We'd like to welcome you to our private, two bedroom, 1 1/2 bath, two story cottage at the end of a dead end street in the quaint town of Sorrento. We invite you to relax and enjoy our comfortable home that offers everything you need for a Maine getaway. Each spacious bedroom offers a queen size bed and large closet. A washer and dryer are provided. The small coastal fishing village of Sorrento boasts one of the most picturesque coastal harbors in the state with stunning winter views. Several freshwater lakes and ponds offer opportunities for ice fishing. Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor is located just 40 minutes away and the Schoodic Peninsula - Acadia National Park, in Winter Harbor is just 20 minutes away from this centrally located home. Much of the park, at both locations, remain open during the winter for those hardy folks who wish to experience them when less crowded. A short drive to Ellsworth will offer plenty of local shopping, grocery stores and an L. L. Bean Outlet. We are finishing up a four season porch that offers a comfortable area to read or lounge in the sunshine.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.

Wonderful stay.
The cottage is a gem. Location was perfect for exploring Acadia and Bar Harbor. The beds were very comfortable, we loved spending time on the porch in the mornings and evenings. Michelle was quick to respond to any questions we had and was attentive and pleasant. There was nothing lacking for amenities. We would love to come back someday.

Great house in quiet location
We loved our stay! It was close enough to the Bar Harbor/Acadia excitement to see everything but wonderfully relaxing to return to a quiet, comfy house at the end of the day. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive. Loved seeing the starfish at low tide at the tidal falls preserve just 10 min from the house. Would definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our time at the property. Peaceful to return to in the evenings after days adventuring in Acadia, Bar Harbor, and on the Schoodic Peninsula. The kitchen was well equipped for our needs. We also enjoyed use of the grill on our nights eating in. Would recommend to friends.

Great Place
This place provided everything we needed and then some. The enclosed three-season room that was not pictured was a great bonus. They also provided fresh flowers and a bottle of wine complimentary. I contacted them a few times about some questions via test and they were always very quick to respond. I can't say enough great things! We would definitely stay again.

Clean, Classy and Complete
The hosts thoughtfully appointed the cottage with many useful features and household items. It seemed they thought of everything their guests might need, but forgot to pack. There were even freshly cut flowers in a vase and a nice bottle of wine for us to enjoy on our arrival. The interior was nicely decorated and very clean. The check in/out processes were very easy. It was perfect for our needs at a reasonable cost. We highly recommend!

Beyond awesome
Michelle and Mike are fantastic hosts. They have done an amazing job putting all the special touches on this house. Even though they still have a few projects in the works, as a guest you’d never know. The sun room is awesome and the remote but close to everything location is perfect. The best Maine sky viewing ever. The best VRBO experience
