Waterfront Downeast Retreat on Pigeon Hill Rd in Steuben

1 bedroom (queen bed), with spacious loft, 1 bathroom, sleeps 6, additional outdoor shower...

This beautiful, waterfront property nestled between Pigeon Hill Preserve and Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge which is approximately a 10 minute walk away. Both have beautiful hiking trails and unbelievable views of islands, shorelines and Cadillac Mountain for your enjoyment. The enchantment of the restless sea, the view of the lighthouse and sounds of the echoing foghorn of Petit Manan beckon you to the natural beauty surrounding this waterfront cottage.
Downeast Retreat includes ceramic tile, radiant heat floors, natural spruce and pine, post and beam organic architecture that takes advantage of all your surroundings no matter where you are in the spacious and cozy cottage. Featuring two outside decks; one ocean side the other brook side. Take in all the sounds of ocean, sea birds, the distant fog horn, or bubbling stream, song birds and whispering winds through spruce and fir. The choice is yours. Awaken to a breathtaking view of islands in the bay from the upstairs loft. Watch the local fisherman as they set out to sea for the day’s fresh catch. Take in the salt air as you watch eagles travel the coastline past our cottage along to Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge. Hiking trails, kayaking and biking are out the front door. Pick wild blueberries in season, only a short walk away. Fresh lobster and clams can be ordered locally just minutes from the cottage.
The cottage waterfront overlooks Bois Bubert Island, the Atlantic Ocean and Petit Manan Lighthouse. Again, Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge is a half mile away with several shore hikes and incredible views. The Pigeon Hill Preserve has spectacular trails to it’s 317 foot summit, and displays an extraordinary panoramic view of the surrounding area including numerous Maine islands, mountains, bays and Petit Manan Peninsula itself.
Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park and the bustling town of Ellsworth also make great day trip destinations. To complete your authentic Maine experience, take a day trip Nor’ east on route one through the heart of Down-east Maine from Milbridge to Eastport. If you want an international experience then continue to Campabello Island or New Brunswick, Canada only an hour and a half away but remember to bring your passport.
A fantastic & delightful memorable experience for everyone.
