Year round lake front retreat on Beech Hill Pond, close to Bar Harbor/Acadia

3 Bedroom camp next to Beech Hill Pond. Less than 100 ft from the water. Spend your evenings sitting next to the fire pit Listening to the loons sing. In the morning sit on the front deck drinking your coffee. Use one of our two included kayaks and explore the pond, or swim in the amazing clear water.
Fall is coming and leaf changing season will be here soon enjoy the fantastic views around the pond, or visit Acadia for the day. A short drive from this location with great shopping in both ellsworth and MDI.

Pictures absolutely do not do justice for this amazing property. I wish we booked an extra week just to stay at home and relax. Very convenient to both Bar Harbor and Bangor. We saw all the sites and did manage to enjoy some water time at the dock. The fishing from your own backyard pier was excellent. Caught quite a few yellow perch and even caught my first trout! The owners are great communicators and very friendly. As soon as we get home we are planning next summers trip!! Thanks again for the peaceful retreat we needed!!

Beautiful lake house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hidden gem on Beech Hill Pond, which is a quiet and pristine lake perfect for swimming, fishing, and boating. The property is beautiful and private with its own boat ramp and dock. The house is well stocked and very comfortable for a family of 4. We enjoyed trips to nearby Bangor and Ellsworth. Would definitely rent again!

Relaxing Family Vacation
Review The pictures do not do this property justice. The house is comfortably open providing lots of room for children to play. The kitchen is set up nicely, as well, as we were able to make a majority of our meals at home. The proximity to Ellsworth was convenient, as well, being able to access numerous food markets and restaurants. I loved the water! It was clear and provided us some great swimming experiences! The beach and dock were private and allowed us to enjoy the pond without interruption. We were pleasantly surprised by the number of toiletries and kitchen supplies provided, as we are accustomed to having provide them all. The property owners went out of their way to give us a pleasantly memorable vacation experience and we are incredibly grateful! We highly recommend this property!

The house was absolutely perfect and was a great way to relax for the weekend. Very dog friendly (dog bed, treats, and water/food bowls already there) and comfortable. We look forward to making this spot an annual trip!

Great stay
This property was the best VRBO rental we have ever stayed in. I can’t say enough about the entire experience. The lake was great, the smallmouth bass were hungry and plentiful, and the cabin was as advertised.

Peaceful retreat, didn't want to leave
We were there with our 7 year old daughter. The house was clean and cozy, and the air conditioner was so helpful/useful on a couple humid days. Great raft selection, some life vests, and a single kayak for peaceful solo trips. Yes, I'll second what someone else said - Perhaps a bit of an update to the kitchen tools/pots and pans set up would be welcome, but we made due with what was there and it didn't put a damper on our stay. The pond/lake was gorgeous. We had a couple dinners out in Ellsworth, and those were delightful. You'll want to get all the supplies you can and then just chill at the house. We felt like new people when we went home again. We would absolutely stay there again.

Peaceful and Relaxing.
This house was everything we could ask for. It was so peaceful by the lake and offered us privacy. The house inside was beautiful and a place where we could just relax. We enjoyed hearing the loons out on the lake in the early morning and late evening hours. We enjoyed our time here and would stay here again.

Wonderful Stay!
Had a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage on the lake. The cottage was nicely furnished and well equipped. We were a little disappointed that only 1 kayak was available instead of the 2 advertised but otherwise we had a lovely stay. I unplugged the air freshener right away as it was a little overpowering, and I would recommend adding a gate to the side of the desk so guests can sit out there and keep their kids and dogs contained fully - but otherwise, I would highly recommend this cottage as a wonderful lakeside retreat!

A Nice Place on a Lake
The house is lovely and about 20-30 minutes away from just about anything you'd need. Its a good base to visit Acadia (we went several times). We enjoyed swimming in the lake and kayaking. The fish weren't biting for us while we were there unfortunately. The only thing I'd mention is that while the kitchen had lots of things it's a hodge-podge and using it to prepare meals presents some challenges.

Beauty and relaxation
Even better than the pictures. Ryan is so helpful and quick to respond. I have stayed at a lot of places, this place was fully stocked with everything that you could need for a wonderful week vacation with your family. The lake is clean and we enjoyed swimming and the kayaks. It’s a quick drive to the nearest town of Ellsworth for groceries and anything else you might need. It was about a 45 minute ride to Bar Harbor.

Great Place with Awesome Sunsets!
Our family (grandparents, children and grandchildren) had a great time here. The lake was a big hit with everyone and we spent many hours swimming in the lake and enjoying the awesome sunsets at night. House was exceptionally clean and very welcoming. Loved the baskets full of items we might have forgotten to bring. House was close enough to Acadia National Park for us to visit several times. Host was quick to respond to my emails and very helpful. We would definitely stay here again!
