You can lounge on a daybed over the stream, or kick your feet up on one of the many outdoor seating areas
A guest favorite, soak in our 7-person hot tub under the stars as you listen to the flow of the stream just 10 yards away
Roast some smores over the firepit and share stories with your group
Finally, cook using the propane BBQ grill or boil some lobsters in the propane-fueled lobster pot and enjoy the meal outside at the table

*Please note: This house was built in 1856, and although professionally cleaned in between each stay, the house has characteristics such as imperfect paint, steep stairs, and the occasional uneven floor. We hope this is an attraction, not a deterrent.
Explore the wonders of Acadia National Park, with nearby destinations such as Jordan Pond, Cadillac Mountain, and Somes Sound offering breathtaking natural beauty and recreational activities.
Whether exploring Acadia's landscapes, immersing in the historical ambiance, or enjoying the game room's entertainment, our 1856 village house is an ideal retreat for adventurers, history enthusiasts, and families seeking an extraordinary escape.
