The beach also changes its character to the ebb and flowof the tide. There are boulders that are exposed during low tide along with the seaweed.
The spacious balcony provides a front-row seat to watch lobster boats in the bay, along with cormorants and seagulls commuting to and from the ocean. You might also spot loons and other fascinating seabirds, with the occasional bald eagle soaring overhead. Each morning brings an awe-inspiring sunrise, showcasing a different display of nature's wonders.

It includes two full baths, a half bath, and is equipped with a high tier internet, WiFi, and cable channels. You’ll also have the convenience of a washer and dryer.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Baycliff, being 2 adults & 2 18 y/o 'kids'. The view is truly mesmerizing, one of the best on MDI ! Super clean. Well appointed, they thought of everything you might need. The building and furnishings are in excellent condition. Owner is helpful and highly responsive to questions. This is a comfortable, cozy cottage. The rooms are small, but some big windows, skylights and high ceilings help it feel spacious. The wifi connections were solid and fast. We were able to 'work from home' when required, from the lower level space, with clear uninterrupted zoom and remote desktop connections. When not working or out in the park playing, we were able to stream music or netflix without any issues. As described, the other cottages on site share the waters-edge deck occasionally, so it is not completely private but there is enough distance between to be comfortable. The only possible improvement might be a sliding insulated window (instead of folding doors) between lower bedroom & living room for increased sound separation for those on different sleep schedules (ie teenagers vs middle agers...), although enjoying the amazing view from all rooms was appreciated. We enjoyed watching the abundant wildlife, and making friends with the chippies. We enjoyed the historic photos, clearly this property has been beloved by generations - and for good reason. All in all, a great find. We look forward to returning!

Summary: Baycliff has everything you could possibly want in a vacation home. The view is spectacular. The location is convenient to everything you would want to do in Bar Harbor and Acadia. The owner, Kevin, communicates very well and gives great tips. The house has everything you will need. Our family stayed a week and loved every minute of our stay. After exploring and seeing the beauty of the area you get to come back to the house and enjoy the beautiful view. We hope to be able to go back some day! Thank you Kevin.

Summary: We enjoyed staying at Baycliff for our family vacation to Maine for the first time. It was conveniently located close to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National park. We were lucky to have been able to see the northern lights, seals, and a double rainbow off the back deck. Very clean and nice property we would love to come back again.

Summary: Our vacation consisted of friends joining us for the first week and then family coming in to stay the second week. The house sits on Frenchman Bay which allowed for beautiful daily sunrises and the chance to watch the lobster boats check traps. The binoculars in the house were powerful and allowed us to view the rituals daily. The home is fully furnished, so whether you use the kitchen a lot or a little, every utensil we needed was available. Everyone commented on the comfort of the beds, great water pressure, and a stellar location requiring only a short drive to get to Acadia, downtown, and local restaurants. The area was very quiet since it sits off the highway and has multiple small roads to get out to walk without traffic if you have children or pets. We appreciated the AC availability, but only turned it on twice the entire 2 weeks. The property manager and local contact were prompt with communications.
