About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Oceanfront Maine Acadia Cottage

Tidal Ledge has a beautiful and secluded contemporary Atlantic seacoast design that blends perfectly into the Maine landscape. It’s exceptional location offers the quintessential Maine experience.

The main living area boasts floor to ceiling glass windows offering 180 degree views of the ocean. This home is well appointed with everything you expect to find in your own home to include a fully stocked kitchen, luxurious turkish bath towels, and comfortable high thread count sheets. For your convenience a washer and dryer are also available in the home.

The layout makes this house easy to move around with only one floor to include two spacious bedrooms each with a queen size bed, and one spacious bathroom. The house has a large 50 inch flat screen television with full cable and Roku packages, and the wifi maintains a strong signal. For cool nights a beautiful gas log fireplace warms the house. Note: Due to the proximity to the ocean and high decks, Tidal
Ledge is only suited for adults with children aged 16 or older.

Grab your chairs or blanket to walk over to the Frenchman Bay Conservancy sponsored Summer Monday evening concerts that make for a fun evening. These fun concerts are located within walking distance from the house, or you can take in the concert from the comfort of the large back deck.

Tidal Ledge sits next to a nature preserve that highlights some of the most exceptional viewings of Maine wildlife. It is not unusual to frequently see bald eagles, harbor seals and a wide cross section of bird species flying about, all seen from the privacy of the back lawn. At night, sit by the Oceanside fire pit taking in views of the Milky Way. Take a stroll in the morning down to the shoreline with a cup of coffee, and in July and August pick wild blueberries on property for your breakfast pancakes.

If your looking for a nice dinner out, look no further than the 4 star restaurants available in the area. Chippers, Ironbound, and Crocker House Country Inn are all within a short drive away. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are a 20 minute drive, and for shopping essentials Ellsworth is the largest town in Hancock county and is a 15 minute drive away. Hancock Point is located a short distance away. Visit Hancock’s 130 year old library, and take a stroll around the point enjoying views across Frenchman’s Bay to Bar Harbor.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washer/dryer, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Private and Peaceful Getaway

This property was by far one of the cleanest well stocked places we have ever stayed through VRBO! It was EXACTLY as pictured and described in all the photos. The setting is so beautiful and peaceful, and we really appreciated being away from the crowds in Bar Harbor and Acadia at the end of each day after hiking and sightseeing at both these places.

Beautiful cottage! The view! The view! The view!

Wow! So happy we chose this amazing cottage for our 25th anniversary trip to Maine. Excellent communication with the host before & during.. answering questions and giving us a lot of info and suggestions on what to do and where to go locally for food and excursions. The cottage is private & peaceful with an amazing view of the Tidal Falls. The wildlife is incredible! We saw harbor seals, bald eagles, great blue herons, osprey, cormorants & loons daily! There was even a whale (most likely a minke whale) that came in with the tide a few days too! So cool! We found starfish & sea snails at low tide. Gorgeous sunsets! The cottage is incredibly clean, comfortable & well stocked with everything you need. We bought fresh lobsters and got great deals from a local co-op twice on the Schoodic Peninsula along with fresh oysters from another local guy and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our delicious dinners. Maine lobsters & oysters are something special! We drove all around the Schoodic peninsula to the small towns (Winter harbor, south harbor & Corea) and also visited the Schoodic Peninsula of Acadia NP. Saw a porcupine driving in, climbed the rocks & experienced the beautiful scenery! The cottage is a 40-50 min drive to Bar Harbour and Acadia NP. We loved the Park Loop drive and hiked a bunch of scenic trails there 3 different days too! A nature lovers dream vacation! Beautiful mountains, fresh sea air, delicious foods! 10/10 would love to return & stay here again

5 stars – A Peaceful Retreat That Exceeded Expectations!

This place was absolutely immaculate—spotless from top to bottom. We were immediately struck by how peaceful and inviting it felt. The setting was quiet and relaxing, perfect for a restful getaway. One of the biggest surprises was how well-stocked everything was. From tissue and paper towels to a variety of spices in the kitchen, it felt like the hosts had thought of everything. We didn’t have to run out the first night to shop. The wildlife was an added surprise.Highly recommend and would absolutely stay again!

Tidal Ledge - was the best!

Our 6-day stay at Tidal Lodge cottage was a trip to remember. The atmosphere was outstanding with an impeccably clean home and unparalleled views. We saw bald eagles and seals, cormorants, and so many other cool creatures every morning and evening. Tracey was the best host with regular communication in advance and during our stay. We’ll be back, for certain. 10/10!

Tidal serenity

I would give this property 100 stars if I could! Best VRBO I have ever stayed. It is immaculate, private, well appointed with floor to ceiling windows looking over the tidal basin. The tidal water changes are a show in themselves and the wildlife adds to its splendor. The gas fireplace warmed the rooms when the air cooled in the evening. Full kitchen to eat-in and use. A perfect size home for a couple or two. Bar Harbor and Acadia NP are a short drive, and Hancock has many hiking options. But the best part was sitting by the water's edge in the Adirondack chairs and watching the tide roll in, pause for a bit and roll out. Can't beat it. Tracey was fantastic - start to finish. I wish we could have stayed longer. We'll be back! Thanks Tracey! :)

Best experience ever.

This is the best VRBO I have ever stayed. The location is amazing, secluded in the forest just far enough away from town but not too far to drive and see the sights. The views are amazing and it is easy to spend hours looking outside at nature.The cottage is well appointed with everything you need to be comfortable. Tracy is easy to communicate with and answers questions quickly. I highly recommend.

My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights, what a wonderful place. The scenery out back is so beautiful, getting to watch the tide go in out is amazing. The place is awesome, just as advertised. I have stayed in a many VRBO's this place has the softest towels ever. The host Tracey was so accommodating to our needs. If you get a chance to go to Maine, make this place one of your stays. We would definitely stay here again.

Water Front Fabulousness

My small family stayed at this cottage for a getaway to Maine. It was so lovely in every way. The view was stunning and it was so fun to observe the changing tides. There was not a single thing we needed that was not provided. The kitchen was well stocked and the appliances were new functioned perfectly. The location was a bit off the beaten path but that’s want we wanted and driving into Acadia was quick and easy. I would book this place again in a second!

Maine cottage

This property was so wonderful! It was perfect for my husband and I. Comfy furniture, cozy fuzzy blankets, a working gas fireplace and a stunning waterfront view. Deer passed through the property most mornings and it was a short drive to Acadia which was in full fall color and was so beautiful for hiking and drives. Most attractions were closed for the season when we went (late Oct) but we found plenty of good food and the weather was perfect for hiking. We loved it here. I reached out to the owner with a question and she was prompt and friendly and actually called instead of messaging through VRBO which i appreciated. I would 100% recommend this property and i would love to come stay here again.

The incredible view off the back porch and the peace and quiet we experienced was just amazing! It’s about 45 minutes from Bar Harbor, but we would definitely choose this over some fancy new condo in the middle of town. The kitchen is well stocked, and the home is very quaint, which was exactly what we were looking for. The host(s) were super super nice and genuinely cared about making our stay the best possible!
