“Long Pond Cottage" Lakefront on Mount Desert Island Sleeps 6

Spectacular views, private boat dock, partial Air-conditioning, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, Long Pond Cottage is located on the shore of Long Pond; a glacially formed lake. The largest lake on Mount Desert Island boasts miles of shoreline and spring fed fresh water. Unobstructed lake views welcome you at our cottage. Privately owned shoreline and Acadia National Park share this pristine lake. Hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, swimming and water sports are out your front door. The cottage sleeps 6 with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, BBQ, a deck at waters edge and a private boat dock are all included. Our family cottage is fully equipped for your family's convenience, including cable tv and WiFi. We welcome clean well behaved dogs who will love camp as much as their human companions. Our kitchen includes new appliances; stove and cooktop, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee maker and normal kitchen utensils. There are two bathrooms with tiled showers (one has a shower bench). There is also a new washer and dryer. Canoe and kayak rentals are available on the Lake. Our private dock can accommodate all manner of watercraft up to 22 foot fishing boats with its bumpers and cleats plus a swim ladder for easy access to the water. The entrance(s) and access to Acadia National Park are a few minutes drive. Within the Park, historic carriage paths, hiking trails, horseback riding, biking, and miles of Maine ocean shoreline await your adventures. Close to Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor there are many restaurants offering something for everyone's taste. Our family favorites are the fresh lobsters, lobster rolls and everything blueberry. Organic produce, in season, is available throughout the island. A treasure of the island located between Seal Harbor and Northeast Harbor is the Little Long Pond leash free walking and hiking area donated by David Rockefeller. Each day enjoy the spectacular views from the deck or dock. No matter whether you choose to tour the island of Mount Desert, shop in the historic harbor towns, participate in ocean activities, each day you will come back to find families of loons, ducks, and bald eagles awaiting you. Allow time for your canoe or kayak trip to Rum Island, watching the sunsets and sunrises from our deck, viewing the stars at night, and your afternoon swim in the lake.

Long Pond Cottage is a literal piece of heaven. The cottage is very comfortable and has everything you need. The view of the lake is the best! On top of that you can watch the loons swim by, hear them calling up the lake, and easily put a kayak in from the dock the explore and relax. This was our second year staying at the cottage and we will definitely be back!

The cottage had gorgeous views and was the perfect size for our family. Mornings were spent fishing off the dock in the beautiful lake and enjoying some quiet time while having coffee. The cottage was spotless and Lori made sure we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful stay on Long Pond

Long Pond Cottage is beautifully situated, with unobstructed views down the pond to Beech Mountain from the dining room, deck, and dock. The cottage was incredibly clean and well-stocked, and Lori was very quick to respond to questions I had before and during our stay. This is our third trip to Long Pond but our first stay at Lori's...and now we can't imagine staying anywhere else!

The cottage is not large but it was very well laid out so there was ample room for five adults and two dogs. It was in excellent shape, very clean and well stocked with household necessities. It’s location is stunning. We woke every morning to the beauty of Long Pond. We were close to Acadia hiking trails and only 20 min to Bar Harbor. Lori, the owner, was very responsive and helpful. We’ve visited Acadia/Bar Harbor three times and this house was by far our favorite. I would definitely return!

Perfect Stay on Long Pond

We had an amazing stay at this house on Long Pond. The house is so nice, with a terrific view of Long Pond, as well as being super comfortable and spacious, and well appointed with anything you need to make a rental house feel like home. We spent the whole week pretty much looking at, on, or in the water. Kayaking and fishing were out major activities and we loved how close the dock was to the deck and the house to make that as easy as possible. Our dogs loved hanging out on the deck too.

The Perfect Lake House Getaway

We recently stayed at Long Pond Cottage for a mother daughter vacation with our two dogs and it was everything we had hoped it would be and more. The house itself is the perfect size and very comfortable, with absolutley everything you could need. The natural light and views from the windows make the place feel surreal. Then add in the loons floating by and calling up and down the lake, we thought we were in heaven. The location is perfect with most of all major area attractions in Acadia and Bar Harbor only 15-20 minutes away! I cant recommend this vacation home enough and cant wait to return next year!

Beautiful lake cottage

We spent a week at this beautiful place. The view of the lake is amazing. Such a peaceful spot. The house was immaculately clean and well stocked. The owners were very helpful and considerate. The beds were comfortable. The house is in a good location to cover all of MDI/Acadia National Park. We were able to drive to all nearby activities and then come back to the house for a peaceful evening on the lake. We had 4 adults on our trip and did not feel crowded. Highly recommend.

Hidden gem on Long pond

Beautiful home right on Long Pond! Such a comfortable, quiet home. Communication with owner was above and beyond. Having everything on one level was so enjoyable- hard to find in Bar Harbor. Loved the individual thermostats. Furniture very comfortable and warm throws great for curling up to watch tv or sit out on deck. Kayak rentals at end of pond. Delightful vacation!!
