Cottage with a Vista

Charming, cozy, newly-renovated cottage with beautiful vistas. Less than an hour to Acadia National Park and just a few minute walk to the lovely Morgan Bay.

The cottage is elegant as well as rustic. A rare combination of nature, comfort and class. The cottage is located on an old Maine farm. A unique performing arts center is located a few hundred feet away. A lovely meditation center is also just a few minutes walk down the road.

There is a piano in cottage for anyone who wants to explore expressing themselves in music.

This apartment 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.

I had a very pleasant stay with my dog Louise. The other buildings are very close by so it has a small neighborhood vibe.

May 2024 Vacation
The cottage was nice for what we needed which was a place to shower and sleep. It was a little further from Acadia National Park (about 45 minute drive one-way). Allen was very kind and welcoming. The grounds were in need of some care and we are pretty sure there was a mouse in the cottage.

Cottagecore dreams
This was my second time staying at the Surrey music farm and both times deserved 5 stars! The cottage was exactly as advertised and contained anything you could ever need. Not to mention stunning views from the deck and an amazing location if you hope to visit Acadia during your stay. Alan was also very communicative and personable each time! He even provides a list of recommendation and amenities to ensure your comfort ! Will be back again soon!

Dog-friendly property with access to scenic area
Newly renovated cottage was spotless, plenty of hot water and heat, comfortable queen bed and a piano! Convenient spot with a dog, just one step up and extensive lawns for walks; near beaches and hiking trails. The owner lives on the property and was a pleasure to work with.

Beautiful stay
We didn't know what to expect since we were coming in behind a hurricane. It was beautiful Alan was nice and wonderful he told us about what nearby and even had maps and information on acadia and bar harbor. It was beautiful to see the sunrise and deer just outside our door. Very peaceful we will definately be back.

Warm, comfortable, clean, nice view
My wife and I took a quick little getaway to see Arcadia in the winter. We also brought our 9 year old grandson with us. The cabin was awesome, extremely clean, had everything we needed, including a piano! Our grandson had a awesome time trying to play music, and he didn't do all that bad. We highly suggest this place if you want to be out of the Arcadia hustle bustle. It was very, very quiet at night. Amazing views of MT. Cadillac.

Anniversary Getaway
My partner and I stayed here for a long weekend for our 9th anniversary. The cabin is located on a quiet street with an open landscape that allows for gorgeous views. The water was quick to heat and stay hot, the kitchenette was efficient, and the heat stayed consistent within the cabin. My only “negative” is more a warning than anything: if you are 6’3” or taller and stand straight be careful of the wooden beam across the ceiling! It is a beautiful feature and I didn’t have to worry about it at all, but my partner did have to be wary.

The perfect place
From the moment we arrived we felt like we were part of something special. Alan walked us around his property, he shared ideas, listened to our interests and sent us on adventures. We explored for days and were lucky enough to be able to sit by the fire and share stories and bond with the others. We would give Alan 10 stars if we could! He gave us the opportunity to fall in love with Maine. He treated like family and we found it hard to leave. We will be back for sure.

Charming & Cozy Oasis
We loved having our Cottage w a view as our warm oasis from a rained out camping trip to Acadia. It was a pleasure to meet Alan and so appreciated the care he took in showing us the property and cottage. He’s clearly created a very special place for healing through music. My only note is that it felt stressful to have to communicate via phone while hiking at Acadia to coordinate specific arrival time with owner. We had hoped for a more relaxed end to our day at the mountain. Otherwise great.
