2 Bedroom Cottage in Bernard, Tremont

Perched just feet from the waters of Blue Hill Bay on the quiet side of Mt. Desert Island, our cottage is a seaside retreat, with a sweeping southwest view across Blue Hill Bay, while giving you a base for exploring the amazing island and Acadia National Park. You can spend your days on the deck reading a book and gazing out on the water, or you can come home to watch the sunset after a day of island exploring.
Originally built as a fishing shack, the cottage has been added to and renovated over the last 90 years, but retains it's rustic character with white-washed exposed structure throughout, living room with fireplace and cathedral ceiling, sleeping loft, and windows looking out to the ocean from every room. It can sleep up to 7 people, with a bedroom on the first floor, and 3 sleeping areas on the second floor.
The cottage has a well equipped kitchen, large living room with wifi, TV, DVR, & radio, and a dining room, with a water view that is hard to look away from. Outside, the deck overlooking the water, is perfectly situated for soaking in the sun's rays and watching the resident loons fishing, seals frolicking, and eagles soaring during the day, and celebrating the setting of the sun at day's end.
The cottage is filled with books, and has plenty of games, for rainy days, or when you don't feel like leaving this little corner of paradise.
The cottage is rented week to week, from Saturday to Saturday. It is strictly a no-smoking area. Pets are permitted with prior approval and a fee. We are available to answer any questions you have about our cottage before or after arrival.

Summary: This was our second time staying at Lyford Cottage (which speaks for itself), and the first time visiting Mt. Desert Island in early June. We had a great time! The "Quiet Side" cottage, which has a classic feel and offers privacy, provided the perfect launching point for day trips around MDI or to just hang around and relax. The cottage sits right above a rocky shoreline, offers a path down to the water, and has porch for watching wildlife, photographing the setting sun, or just relaxing.
