Aldernest Den - Mount Desert Island/Acadia -walk across the lawn down to shore


Along with my husband and family, I invite you to share the beauty of our home and cottages on Mount Desert Island, the home of Acadia National Park.

We are located in the coastal village of West Tremont, on the western side of Mount Desert Island. You can get to the parts of the park within 10 minutes and to Bar Harbor in about 30 minutes.

The Aldernest Cottage is adjoining our home overlooking Blue Hill Bay. The rocky shore front of Maine is just a short walk across the lawn. You can have your coffee in the morning sitting on the rocks while you enjoy our private, peaceful setting. In the evening you will enjoy the beautiful sunsets that will probably take your breath away.

The Aldernest Den (downstairs apartment) has two carpeted bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and one with two twins. There is a dining room/living room area, fully equipped kitchen and a bathroom with a washer/dryer.

You will find our rates competitive and the setting incomparable. Please come, relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of our location while you are visiting Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park.

Additional Details:
Wifi using 200 Mbs Spectrum Cable Modem Connection
High definition television with Roku

1) Our Cottage is Pet Free. We have found that many returning tenants are allergic to pets so this is a "firm policy", no exceptions, please.

3) Our Cottage is Smoke Free. No smoking allowed on the premises.
