Cabin rentals with a hot tub

Lake front, Hot Tub, Kayak, MDI!
Beautiful place, quiet and peaceful location. Appreciated that the master bedroom was downstairs, while the kids were upstairs. Lake is huge, and is super quiet, only saw 1 boat on the water while we were there. Nice fire pit with wood included. Hot tub was a a big hit. Would definitely rent again :)

Unique, Colorful Off-Grid Cabin
We stayed at the Bambi Inn on Art Farm and loved everything about it! The space is thoughtfully designed with cheerful custom art and decor. The hosts designed a custom manual/booklet that blows the typical air bnb binder out of the water. The home was well equipped with everything you might need from extra blankets & towels, to kitchen and bathroom needs, first aid supplies, sunscreen, bugspray, and more. It’s impossible not to smile when arriving at the Bambi Inn. The hosts provide bicycles to use for the short ride to beautiful Lamoine Beach. We were able to get to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, and other neighboring towns with ease. I’d highly recommend booking here!

Smitten - you will be - Hear Silence.
such a peaceful, charming place. total privacy and very clean, would definitely stay again

Tall Pines Luxury Retreat W/Jacuzzi new build
Amazing place to stay quiet and peaceful. We will 100% be back!

Seaswept Cottage
I wish I could give this place and host more than 5 stars! Deirdre was incredibly sweet and extremely fast to respond to any questions we had. The cabin was cozy, clean, and just what we were looking for! Our trip revolved around hiking Acadia NP, and while this Airbnb was about an hour drive to the main part of the park, it was WELL worth it. It was away from the busyness and very quiet peaceful and private. Plus it’s only about 15 mins to the Schoodic peninsula! There’s a small path to some rocks you can sit on and relax by the ocean, which after a long day of hiking was perfect! Bonus- We were able to see the northern lights from there!! All in all this place was 10/10 and I highly recommend. If I ever get the chance to return to Maine, I would absolutely love to stay here again!!

Hidden Pines Cabin Escape W/Jacuzzi new build
This stay was absolutely wonderful. Beautifully located, clean, and convenient. I recommend to anyone wanting to stay in rural Maine!

EcoCottage Private Hot Tub
Fantastic stop on our way up to Acadia. Only wish we had booked for two nights instead of one! the wood stove was super efficient on a very chilly October night. Close to the Pour Farm and Odd Alewives breweries, which were awesome. And very quick drive to Camden for food options and excellent ocean/mountain hikes. Very clean and cozy Maine camp. We hope to be back!

The Oasis - Bay Front, Kayak, Fireplace, Firepit
We had a wonderful time! The views and amenities were amazing. We had a blast using the kayaks and the living space was lovely to wind down in after an eventful day exploring the outdoors. It was the perfect spot for our party of 6. We look forward to returning one day!

Gilbert Cottage - Wooded, rustic gem in SW Harbor
We are repeat renters of this great Maine cottage. The location is near several great hiking trails, which makes it a favorite for our pup. And my husband and I love the privacy in the yard and the feeling of being in the woods while we’re still in a neighborhood. It’s about 25 minutes away from Bar Harbor too, which is perfect.

Forested Beachside Couples Cabin Retreat w/Sauna 6
stunning in the fall. feels very private even though it's next to other cabins. chairs in the back are awesome for view of falling leaves and woods. walkable to sandy point beach, but easy drive if necessary. amazing places to eat and shop in Belfast and surrounding area. we had an amazing trip.

Lakefront Lupine Tiny Cabin @ Getogether Stays
Amazing stay at Lupine Cabin, would 100% recommend for anyone looking for a rustic vacation but still want amenities. We stayed 2 nights and went kayaking and made a bonfire. Bathrooms were extremely clean, as well as all the linens. We were also able to check in early due to the rain and Eddie was extremely helpful. Out too dogs also loved the cabin. Planning on coming back soon.

Cozy Lakefront Cabin * CampChamp
Overall, we had a very peaceful and smooth stay at this beautiful cabin! We found it with no troubles, hosts were very responsive, and the boats and board games were nice touches. We had a few minor issues (coffee container was empty and firewood costs were a bit steep), but we’d recommend the cabin and would love to come back.

Calm Breezes Cabin
We stayed at the Calm Breezes cabin with our 7 month old and two labradoodles. It was perfect for our trip to Acadia, comfortable, quaint, clean and so peaceful /beautiful setting. The town also has amazing restaurants - just a few minutes down the road. Would definitely come back / recommend to anyone visiting Acadia!

Hobb’s House - Year Round Log Cabin on the Water
This was our second time staying here. We love the beautiful and peaceful setting. Lots to do in the surrounding areas but also we love relaxing at the house by just sitting on the dock with a good book or kayaking/fishing in Hobbs Pond.

Long Cove Artist Cottage
My husband and I spent a wonderful week at Judith’s cottage in Deer Isle. Judith, her partner Linda, and Kate (Linda's daughter) were incredibly welcoming—always kind, helpful, and full of great recommendations about the area, from hiking trails and restaurants to local shops and the island’s fascinating history. We truly enjoyed our conversations with them, and they were also very respectful of our privacy. The cottage is rustic but cozy and comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The Wi-Fi worked well, and the garden and views of the cove were beautiful. It’s also a great location for exploring Deer Isle, the Blue Hill Peninsula, and even Acadia National Park. We’re grateful for the hospitality and would gladly return!

Rustic Cabin on Beech Hill Pond near Acadia
Our stay at Dave's lakefront cabin was exactly what we'd hoped for, and then some. This isn't just a rental; it feels like a genuinely preserved piece of Maine – authentic and full of character. Being right on the lake was the absolute highlight. The views are truly epic, offering stunning sunrises and peaceful evenings that we savored from the deck and the dock. It was the perfect backdrop for morning coffee and winding down after exploring. Dave is an exceptional host. He was incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. You can tell he cares deeply about this place and his guests. The cabin is filled with thoughtful touches that are one-of-a-kind, from the cozy throws to the unique decor that tells a story, making it feel less like a temporary stay and more like a cherished home.

Norumbega Cottage #9 at Explore Acadia Cottages
It was a new, very clean, and beautiful cottage. Lots of homey touches in the cabin. Sara was awesome about giving suggestions of things to do in the area and places to eat. She was very quick to respond to any and all questions.

Romantic Forest Cabin - private, near everything
The cottage is charming and comfortable, with a lovely, well-thought-out design. The host was thoughtful and very responsive. I really appreciated the rustic style and high-quality touches throughout. It made for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Large 1 Bedroom Log Cabin Near Long Pond.
Such a tranquil setting! Centrally located on Mount Desert Island. Easy to get to Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor. The cabin is ideal for a couple. Very private. Couldn’t really see nearby homes through the surrounding trees. Naomi was very responsive and proactive in communicating with us. Great value!

Blueberry Field Cabin
We had lots of fun at the Blueberry Cabin. We enjoyed the beautiful acreage, including daffodils, and sightings of deer and turkey. The cabin smells like wood, exactly how you hoped it would. The deck is lovely, lowkey and looks out onto the field expanse. At Marc's cabin, you'll have everything you need for a lovely stay. Lastly, Marc is a responsive and gracious host. Thank you, Marc! 🫐

Schoodic Point Cabin
We absolutely loved the cabin. Every day I would do my morning meditation on the porch and sit out there for a good hour listening and smelling the beautiful air. There's so much to do in the area. It was a perfect place to celebrate our anniversary.

Couples’ Retreat on 4 private Atlantic acres
We had such an amazing stay at the Little G! The cottage was absolutely perfect: squeaky clean, peaceful, cozy/comfy, and had ALL the essentials. Terri & Tim truly thought of everything! Each time we opened another drawer or cabinet, we were surprised to find things we didn't even know we needed! We really enjoyed the tub for two and even the refreshing outdoor shower. Though it stayed in the 40s & 50s for our stay (brrrr), the shower was plenty hot! We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Ledgewood Cottage
Such a cozy and peaceful getaway spot. All of our needs were met and we all slept amazingly - super comfortable bedding!! It was wonderful to wake up with the sunlight shining down on the trees. One note - the stairs are noisy so if there are people sleeping while you head down to use the restroom you might disturb their slumber!

Downseast on Greenlaw Cove: A Secluded Getaway
There isn't anything I would change about this beautiful family built camp cabin in the woods or our trip. It was just my husband, five year old daughter and me and we enjoyed the cove , the flora and fauna, and just enjoying time together inside this cozy and private cabin. There is lots to do at the cabin and also in the surrounding areas. For us, this was the authentic Maine experience. Highly recommend.
