Cottage vacation rentals in Penobscot River

This house has a beautiful view of the lake!! The complementary water activity’s are worth booking!! We enjoyed our stay and will come back!! Make sure to walk out on the dock at night and look at the stars!!

Our stay at the Great Pond Airbnb was incredible! The house was beautiful, cozy, and fully stocked with all the amenities we needed. We especially loved the paddle boat—it was magical to take it out on the lake early in the morning and watch the sunrise. Truly a dream! Finding the place initially was a bit tricky (we missed some details in the instructions), and cell service in the area is spotty, so definitely screenshot directions beforehand. Once settled, though, it was perfect. Being just over an hour from Acadia National Park was a huge bonus! We had a blast hiking, especially on Precipice Trail (challenging but amazing!) and Beehive Trail for a slightly easier, but still fun option. This spot offered the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a peaceful, nature-filled getaway!

We stayed here our last night while visiting Acadia. Super cute little cabin! We loved that they had a common space in the main house that was full of supplies and very welcoming. Would stay here again!

It’s a lovely cabin, the hot tub is a plus. It’s also fairly private since it’s last cabin of the property.

We had a great two nights here and enjoyed the hot soak and the sauna. It was near many amenities and also felt very removed. Matt’s was attentive without being intrusive, making sure our stay was perfect and the escape we hoped it would be.

Adorable cottage, newly renovated. Perfect for two with an open space loft for one more. Kitchen is well stocked right down to the coffee. A good location if visiting Fort Knox, Mt. Barrie and not too far from Bar Harbor if that is on your list. Great stay, highly recommend. Beautiful view and private.

great stay for a relaxing weekend trip. perfect house for chilling but still drivable to Acadia. well stocked on the essentials, linens, and stunning views! host very responsive as well.

We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs across the country and I’m not exaggerating when I say that Lydia’s place was one of the cleanest and most well-maintained homes that we’ve been in. The property and scenery are breathtaking. The numbers of birds and chipmunks that entertained us while we sat on the back deck was surprising. We ate all of our meals with the exception of lunches at the cabin and had everything we needed to prep and cook our food. This trip was all about relaxing and Lydia’s home was everything we needed.

Eric is a super friendly host and he knows the local recommendations. His cabin is easy to check-in, clean and very peaceful. One sidenote is this listing doesn't provide wifi, making it ideal for people looking for an unplugged getaway. We truly enjoyed our time on the beautiful Maine coast!

Absolutely loved our stay here! If you're someone who enjoys being close to nature and traveling with your dog, this place is perfect. The surroundings are peaceful and green. Fabiola was super friendly and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The house rules were clear and straightforward, which made the whole experience stress-free. We felt really welcomed and comfortable the entire time. All in all, a great stay—we’d definitely come back!

A little slice of heaven! The Nest was everything we hoped for and more. The sunsets over the crystal-clear lake were stunning, but what really struck us was how long the colors linger in the sky up here, creating the most peaceful and relaxing mood to close out each day. The cabin itself was cozy, thoughtfully designed, and the perfect size for our getaway. We left feeling refreshed and grateful, already looking forward to a return visit.

The cabin was breathtaking, with a history painted and photographed among her walls. Perfect amount of space to accommodate a family should you have one. The morning sunrise was spiritual, and humbling. Host was incredibly friendly and accommodating for our dog. Arjuna. Will absolutely be returning. Thank you for an amazing and beautiful experience.

Can’t say enough about Craig’s beautiful lakeside cottage. If you like remote, peaceful and being close to nature this is for you. The house and contents seemed brand new and they had thought of everything we could want, right down to pancake mix, maple syrup and Maine blueberries for our breakfasts. An easy drive to Acadia. Craig was communicative, friendly and helpful. We had a fantastic stay and hope we’ll be back.

We liked the privacy and seclusion of the house, as well as, having good wifi and space for our dog. The windows around the house let in so much light and we could see wild turkeys in the field one night. The house is close enough to what Acadia, Ellsworth, and Bar Harbor has to offer, but is away from the congestion. Having a washer/ dryer is a plus. We had a great stay of 5 days.

Perfect spot for a quick family Acadia weekend. Nice spot, everything was clean and new, and Alicia was always responsive. Thanks!

Stephen's place is a gorgeous getaway for a fam. it's literally ON the ocean - with multiple jaw dropping views. Best part was the view from Dining room! clear and crisp communication and great stay. would recommend 10/10.

Out of the way, peaceful and stocked with pretty much anything you could need in case you forget something. Clean and comfortable and the host is friendly and makes sure you know everything you need to about the cottage and the area around it.

My family of three had a great time at this camp. It’s a lovely remote getaway and nice spot for swimming, BBQing, camp fires and has a beautiful view of Borestone Mountain.

The space was as advertised and perfect for our needs. Very comfortable and clean. Edward had clear communication and was very easy to reach. Love this cottage!

We had a beautiful stay. Perfect for my family of five. The home was comfortable and welcoming. We had a great time!

We had a great stay at this property. The views were beautiful and the location was quiet and private. Our host was very helpful and friendly, providing us with useful local recommendations & directions. The house was comfortable and cozy - perfect for 3-4 people. We enjoyed our time here and would have loved to stay longer. We recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat.

This was our second stay at Brian's place, and it was just as beautiful and peaceful as we remembered. The serene atmosphere and stunning views made it the perfect getaway. Brian was a fantastic host, and we truly felt at home. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. Rachel was an amazing host! She even put together a list of vegan friendly restaurants for us which made finding places to eat so much easier! I have stayed at many Airbnb’s and I rank Rachele at the very top of hosts for her friendliness, helpfulness, and quick response time

Loved this place! Small but just enough space for quick trip! Had everything I needed and more! Anna helped me with questions and concerns - it was my first time staying at a camper. Although the owners live on location, I found it private and also felt safer knowing they were around! Amazing experience and hoping to come back again.
