Tranquil Lakefront Cottage Near Acadia Nat’l Park.

Indulge in the feeling of seclusion from an expansive deck overlooking a peaceful lake away from the hustle of everyday life. Enjoy daily swimming in the lovely gravel bottomed swimming area at the foot of the hill, although there is no beach. Savor spectacular sunsets on the deck after supper. Cottage has 1 large kitchen/dining/living room with 2 separate bedrooms and one full bath which is outside on the screened-in porch. The front bedroom has a queen bed & lake views while the back bedroom has a forest view with a double bed. There is one large front deck, and 1 small screened in side porch.

I do use the cottage myself when not rented & I have a Siamese cat that I bring with me. Please be aware of this if you have allergies. :)
I was able to install fiber optic Internet at camp Summer of 2024 so I have unlimited Internet now. That means you can watch movies, YouTube videos or anything your heart desires on your own devices.

Also, I had my well water evaluated spring of 2024 & it passed the potability test with no problems.

There is no fire pit at the property as it is in the middle of the woods & an unnoticed spark could be a disaster.

I can’t say enough about this cabin and Cindy. A truly perfect spot, amazing value and Cindy went well above and beyond to help us with an issue after we left town. It’s a magical place-I can’t wait to come back.

This was a cozy little cabin perfectly situated in the woods. Mornings were peaceful and evenings were tranquil. We slept with the windows open most nights and listened to the sounds of the forest around us, no white noise machine needed!The cabin itself is outfitted with everything you need for an extended stay, only personal toiletries needed. There's brochures for local things to do and places to each, which was a nice touch. We stayed with our two year old, bringing her pack and play, and had plenty of room. We used the cabin as a jumping off point to visit Acadia. It's a bit of a drive but there's plenty to see and coffee shops to try in Ellsworth that keep us busy and well fed during the week. Check in and out was seamless and we loved the ease of our stay. I would recommend this to anyone who wants an authentic camp stay on the lake. I'm hoping to return in the future and use the dock more!

Perfect romantic getaway

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was perfect! This was our first trip to Maine and Cindy’s cottage was exactly what we were looking for. It was cozy, quiet, and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the nearby activities in Ellsworth, Bar Harbor, and Acadia NP as well as relaxing at the cottage and sitting on the screened in porch. Hearing the loons on the lake in the mornings and evenings was an added bonus! We would stay here again, highly recommend!

Comfortable, cozy, lakeside home with killer views. It's quiet, well-stocked kitchen (equipment) and is great proximity for so many outings, whether to Acadia, Schoodic, Blue Hill, Deer Isle or . . . And loons.

Patten's Pond Stay

The property is extremely well maintained and has all the necessities for an extended stay. The lake is beautiful and Cindy kept the lake water just warm enough for us to enjoy swimming. The property is conveniently close to a convenience store and two towns with bigger stores if anything more is needed. We recommend at least one visit to the Dairy Port ice cream store in Bucksport. Of course, we mean at least one visit per day. We had a great time and will try to stay again during our next Maine visit. The Taylors

Very basic cabin

The bathroom is outside on the porch and not inside the cabin. There is no main heat throughout the house and the gas wall heater goes out constantly and the floor was freezing from lack of insulation under it. The place was clean.

Secluded but never isolated

What a perfect rustic property. It felt like returning home though it was our first trip to Maine. Beautiful views from the deck, great kayaking from the dock, and close enough to Ellsworth and Acadia to really enjoy the region when we could tear ourselves away from the lake. We barely knew there were other houses around but we never felt isolated. Just the right balance.

Peaceful week on Patten Pond

The cottage is nicely located on a terrace above the pond. It has a beautiful deck partly shaded by tall white pines. There is a natural stone path down to the excellent dock on the pond. (The steps might be hard for seniors or small children). The kitchen is nicely equipped for cooking light meals. The bathroom has been recently updated and the washer and dryer are excellent. The bedrooms, like most cottages, small but both have closet space and drawers for clothes. Access was good and plenty of parking for up to three vehicles. We relied on our cellphones for internet access and reception is excellent, but the wifi limited to a hotspot is very sketchy. Cindy was very easy to communicate with and provides good instructions on most items. We had an excellent week touring local site and eateries and found the cottage met our needs. We would stay here again. Thanks Cindy.

Tranquil Lakeside Cottage

This cottage is a hidden gem! Not far from Route 1 (access to everything you need is within a few miles), you end up at a lovely cottage that seems miles away from everything overlooking a quiet Upper Patton Pond. We saw a few kayakers, one tiny sailboat, and two low-speed power boats during our stay. My husband caught several fish off of the new dock, and I was able to sit on the deck or screened-in porch and read to my heart's delight. The bed was comfortable, and the cottage was well-stocked with everything we needed. We were grateful for the fans provided as it was very warm and humid during our stay. We would definitely go back!!
