Acadia Long Pond Waterfront Cottage on lake- private dock kayak hot tub Sleeps 6

*Available Year Round!* Pinon Cottage is nestled in a private wooded setting on Long Pond, a favorite pond on Mount Desert Island for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing and listening to the resident loons. Complete with its own dock on the pond, large deck with comfortable seating, hot tub, and screened in porch, this cottage is the perfect retreat for getting away from it all. Inside you will find quality furnishings and linens. With its central island location, you're never too far from any of the Island's villages, Acadia National Park, hiking on Beech Mountain, or picking up fresh produce at Beech Hill Farm.

In the summers, hike and bike the trails and mountains in Acadia National Park right from your door, walk down to the sandy beach of Seal Harbor, explore Bar Harbor and Southwest by boat or kayak. In the winters, cozy up by the fireplace, and enjoy the miles of cross country trails in the park. Bar Harbor stays open year round and the island is quiet and peaceful.

Notes:
Enjoy exclusive use of our canoe and two kayaks included with stay. We have a few life jackets, but if you need specific sizes best to bring your own life jackets if necessary.
The Hot Tub stays open all year.
Please do not ask to check in early. We need all the time to make the home perfect for your stay!

LAYOUT:
Main Level: A walkway from the driveway leads you to a large screened in porch with ping pong table. From there, enter the house into a great room with a wall of windows and doors facing the lake. Coupled with the warm wood on the floors and ceiling, this creates a very bright and inviting space. The living room with comfortable seating and a large wall-mounted television is open to a dining area with a table that accommodates eight, and a kitchen with an island that has two stools. Beyond the kitchen is a full bathroom with shower and a stacking washer/dryer. Next you will find a bedroom with two sets of bunk beds (1 with a trundle).
Upper Level: Stairs at the front entry lead to a bedroom with queen bed and a ½ bath. The bedroom has a window overlooking the Living Room, which has a shade for privacy. A large window and skylight provide plenty of light. Should you need it, there is an AC unit in this room.
Outside: Doors between the living area and dining area lead to a large deck with comfortable furniture and a hot tub. At the base of the deck is a foot wash and you will find an outdoor shower on the side of the house. Take the short path down to the dock and enjoy the water!

Cabin On The Lake

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin on the lake. Check in was super easy and the cabin clean. Our four boys loved the kayaks, ping pong, and fishing in the lake. We would certainly stay again if we get in the area!

Wonderful private cottage

The cottage was everything that was promised. Location, location, location. The perfect place to split Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor. It has such a wonderful private, secluded feel. The Ability to have canoes and kayaks they are ready to use was an added bonus. I would definitely recommend the cottage to anyone seeking to get away and relax.

Great property

We had a wonderful stay! The owner and property manager were very accommodating when we asked last minute to add another night on when our plans changed. The property is lovely, well stocked and represented very appropriately. We definitely preferred this side (quiet side) of the island but you can get anywhere in 20 min. The kids loved fishing the lake! Would come back!

Maine Getaway

This property was perfect for our family trip to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. There was ample place for our family of 4 (and could accommodate more), the kitchen had everything we needed, the setting was natural and quiet and the lake was beautiful. Our favorite was soaking in the hot tub after a long day of hiking. The tub was spacious, clean and you can see the stars on a clear night. Highly recommend!

“Awesome sauce!” (So say the grandkids)

Both the home and location were magnificent. We enjoyed our mornings and evenings on the lake, swimming, kayaking, and fishing. So serene. And, during the day, the location provided easy access to our favorite Acadia adventures. The kitchen was stocked with absolutely everything we needed including great coffee to enjoy on the deck. Thank you for your thoughtful hospitality.

What a Gem

Sometimes I find something so good I selfishly want to keep it to myself. That’s how this place felt. Location was incredible, close to everything, the lake is pristine and the perfect temperature water. My family and I made amazing memories here. I appreciate the owners thoughtfulness on the supplies and accommodations of the house.

Quiet lakeside cottage

This is our 2nd time staying at Piñon Cottage. We love how peaceful and quiet it is surrounded by woods yet right by the beautiful lake. We hiked the Acadia trails everyday and loved getting in the hot tub to soothe our aching joints. The 1st floor of the cottage is a great hang out place with a big TV and comfy couch. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a nice big dining table. The location is so great beacause Southwest Harbor is close for eating out or going to the grocery store. Easy to get to Acadia trails. We hope to return again.

Just Paradise

The minute we opened the door and stepped into the cottage there was a group gasp at how beautiful the house was and view of the lake took our breath away. A perfect vacation with swimming and kayaking from the dock, families of ducks eating out of our hands, eating meals prepared in the well equipped kitchen and best of all, having an early sunrise coffee while listening to the loons sing their mournful song on the lake. Sheer paradise.

Peaceful cabin in the woods

The tranquil lakeside cabin was perfect for our long weekend on Mount Desert Island. We were able to relax in the private hot tub after a day of exploring and kitchen table was a great location for family games. Since we were visiting 2 weeks before the Island fully opens for the summer season it was great to be able to cook in the well stocked kitchen. On our second night the clouds cleared and we caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights from the dock! I loved the all wooden interior and large windows overlooking the deck towards the lake. we were pleasantly surprised with the half bath off the master bedroom, this makes it easier for a small family to have a second toilet. Overall this is a great cottage for a couple or small family and the outdoor space is fabulous!

Perfect cabin for an Acadia trip

This cabin was beautiful! It was even better than the pictures! The deck was incredible and the walk to the lake very short (you see the lake through the trees). It was such a peaceful place to stay and we wished we could have stayed longer than the extended weekend. We didn’t use the kitchen because our stay was so short, but it appeared to have everything you could want in order to cook some great meals. Plenty of glasses, plates, etc for a larger group. The queen bed was very comfortable and the decor very tasteful. We didn’t need the “bunk room”, but it was spacious as well. The location is perfect for access to all Acadia and the island has to offer, as well as just 20 minutes to Bar Harbor for shops and restaurants. We had such a fun long weekend and this cabin was an amazing spot for us to stay!

Wonderful restful vacation- Already wishing to come back soon

We had an amazing time at this house. Space fantastic- backyard on water. Very clean & organized. Extra towels available - for showers & hot tub. Kitchen well stocked. Location cannot get any better. It was so peaceful at night to have the HUGE hot tub and watch the stars and have snacks. The deck is very well organized. and the Dock is also so much fun- we loved to watch the kayaks and the water in the morning over coffee. We didn't have enough days to use the lake (BUT!! the owners generously supplied a canoe and Kayak for use). Honestly cannot get any better than this house. Wish we had more time off a work. Only tiny incontinence - No shower/tub upstairs master bathroom. But honestly was not a problem because this was our romantic getaway. As long as the place has two separate bathrooms - it is fantastic in my opinion. Impeccably clean bathrooms completely stocked with tons extra towels- Big Big Big plus for us. The place has a great washer & dryer (Full size). But we do not like small tiny towels or it can be time consuming to keep washing/drying towels. It's just as important to us to have a great place to stay (clean & safe) as the perfect destination. We enjoyed this tremendously. We plan on making this a tradition for us to come and see the Fall foliage. and definitely a MUST- stay at this house. and hopefully get more time off work- to spend some extra time at house and on that beautifully amazing lake. I cannot say enough good things about this place.
