Cozy Cottage overlooking Acadia Mountains, nearby Bay and Acadia Park

The Cottage on a Hill is located in a spacious, newly-renovated Maine barn on a beautiful and historic farm. It is a five minute walk to nearby scenic Morgan Bay, very close to hiking trails, biking and swimming. Acadia National Park is about 45 minutes away.

The farm offers a seasonal performing arts center featuring classical, jazz, singer songwriter and blues series among others.

Few rental spaces offer all of this in a ten-minute radius.

Pets: Dogs and cats are welcome, but you must contact me in advance so we can discuss details. Upon approval, there is an additional cleaning fee of $50.00 for the one pet or $80 for two pets. The fee for the first pet is included in your VRBO total. If bringing more than one pet, the additional pet fee is payable in cash at checkout. Stays longer than 7 days will need to discuss possible additional pet cleaning fees with the host. Please note that many animals live near the property and frequently walk through it (such as deer, wild turkeys, neighbors' cats, etc.) A porcupine lives under one of the barns, so we recommend keeping dogs on a leash when outside to avoid injury.

Late arrivals after 9:00 PM are subject to a late fee of $25.00.

Additional guests: For more than 2 guests, there is an additional fee of $25 per guest per night.

All that you need (and more)
Very nice, full kitchen (which I didn't really need!). Bathrooms are more than adequate with plenty of hot water. May be slightly more rustic if that's not your thing (or, just what you want if it is!)

Not as advertised
Wrong cabin. Nasty, grimy. Owner is a JERK! Screamed at me where to drive/park, etc as if I’d been there before. Do not stay here.

Great Maine Experience
Alan was very hospitable during our stay. He walked us through the rental and offered recommendations for local restaurants, hike trails, and viewpoints. Alan was only a phone call away whenever we needed anything or had any questions.

Surry Barn Apartment
The apartment was not as it appeared in VRBO photos. The pics must have been taken by a professional photographer when you compare the actual place to the “apartment.” It was clean but extremely rustic - and perhaps this is ok with some. The smell is very musty perhaps because this is an actual renovated barn. There are three apartments in this barn which could also make it very noisy at times. Views are not as portrayed. However, the host, Alan, was very friendly and we enjoyed meeting him.

Enjoyably Rustic and Peaceful
A good base camp for visiting the Acadia National Park area without the maddening crowds.. we enjoyed the 45 minute drive each way to/from the Acadia NP area... light traffic on the 2-lane highways/roadways to Ellsworth made this a nice way to start and finish each day. But, be sure you stock up on snacks/food to cook because you won't find any nearby restaurants - and that's what makes it such a great location! It's definitely a more rustic interior than your typical hotel/motel but that's part of the charm. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and utensils, etc. and the overall open layout is very "loft" like. We really enjoyed the location and the host is welcoming and informative - they've been in the area for decades and are a great resource.

Not what we expected
We did not end up staying here because of the quality of the room. The carpet was wet, it was smaller than expected, and the entryway was dirty and had cobwebs. Despite my filing out the form for 5 adults, the owner was surprised we had adults. He did promptly offer us a refund, but we ended up spending double on a last-minute hotel room because of the change.

Could be good
If you are going to stay here, I suggest one of the cabins which look great. As for the “apartment with a view” - your view most likely will be other guests grilling just a few feet from your bedroom window on what turns out to be a communal deck, or sitting at the fire ring in front of the apartment with the smoke wafting inside. On the very hot, muggy nights I was there I had to close my windows (and, for privacy, my blinds).

Everything was as advertised, comfortable and convenient spot if you want to be near Acadia but away from the crowds.
