The protected cove is the perfect place to try kayaking in the finest paddling waters in the area, or striking out in an exploration of the many islands that make up the calm side of Frenchman's Bay. Take your camera as you look for nesting bald eagles, and walk along our shore to find sea heather in season. At day's end, relax in a hammock or chair by the water or on one of your decks to watch the tide ebb and flow, and capture a spectacular sunset.
The first level master suite has a half bath for your convenience. Double French doors open onto the deck where you can enjoy morning coffee in the company of ever-present hummingbirds. The main level has a full bath, generously furnished kitchen/pantry and living area with dining table, relaxing chairs, a cozy nook for reading or napping, and a fireplace that adds to the comfort and charm.

Summary: Every day was different....the sky, the water, the weather...and it was all breathtakingly beautiful. In a prime location to explore all of Acadia National Park, Tree Tops is the perfect place for a home base with views and amenities to make a day in a lovely experience. The hosts, John and Ann see to your every need while preserving your privacy.

Summary: Truly words can not describe how absolutely enchanting this stay was. Our hosts were the most gracious we have ever experienced with VRBO. The property absolutely exceeded expectations; the VRBO pics and description just can not truly depict the magic of this place!! We packed a cooler, took some blankets and spent an afternoon on the dock. Stunning. I cooked several meals in the most well appointed VRBO kitchen I have ever been in. Thank you. We can't wait to come back!

Summary: This cottage is appropriately referred to as in the tree tops, close to the main house yet very private. Very beautiful and extremely gracious of the host to allow full use of his property walking through the gardens and walking down to the water. John is nearby either in person or by phone to support you and whatever you need for your trip. The bottom line is would I stay here again and the answer is yes and that’s all you need to know

Summary: Wow, what a fantastic place to stay during our visit to the Northeastern shore of Maine! Everything about the place was first class, starting with John, the owner! He formally greeted us and helped us carry our luggage to our phenomenal retreat in the woods overlooking the beauty of his land and the ocean in the near distance! This was a short drive to Bar Harbor and many other scenic towns and Acadia National Forest! We were here 6 nites and utilized every minute of our time to enjoy the sites, the hiking, the FOOD and great place to stay. I could go on and on about be! I want to thank John again for the welcoming basket of treats, and the fabulous and very informative boat ride! AND, I can’t forget our “official” BRANDY the dog! It made us want to find a dog just like her! Thanks again, John for everything!

Summary: We had a wonderful time at the Treetop Cottage. Beautiful views of the bay, along with lovely gardens surrounding the homes helped us relax from our long drive. The cottage was comfortable and had everything we needed. It was so nice to return to after our adventures during the day! We highly recommend. If we ever get back to Maine, we would definitely stay again!

Summary: It was a beautiful, clean, tree house with gardens, and beach front views. The hosts greeted us and left fresh flowers and cheese, fruit and wine. We felt very special. They also took us out in their boat which we will always remember. We would stay here again. It was wonderful.

Summary: John and Anne are wonderful hosts who went above and beyond to make us feel so welcome. The property is even more incredible in person. You can tell that so much thought went into designing the cottage and main house. Loved having dinner on the deck and spending evenings on the screened-in porch overlooking Cadillac mtn. Great location out of the way, but still accessible to Acadia. Really look forward to returning-thanks for everything, John!

Summary: What a lovely, spacious retreat for my husband and I as we explored the Acadia area! We loved the view looking down through the trees to the bay from all three levels. It is much quieter on the Schoodic peninsula than on the main island, but the cottage is still only about 50 minutes from the hikes and sights near Bar Harbor. We also loved going to Schoodic Point to watch the waves. John and Ann graciously took us for a delightful ride in the bay on their personal boat. They really thought of every amenity we might need, as well as the welcoming touch of flowers, fruit, cheese, crackers and wine. They were available when needed but gave us privacy as well. Their insights and information of the area were also helpful.
