“Sea Meadow" Oceanfront Cottage: Lighthouse Views and Private Beach

Sip your morning coffee on the spacious oceanfront deck while watching the sun rise over the mountains of Acadia and Blue Hill Bay. Listen to the sound of the waves and shorebirds as you watch lobstermen check their traps in the bay in front of the cottage. Explore the secluded, rocky beach and look for sea glass and shells. Enjoy an evening cocktail and watch the moon rise over the Blue Hill Bay Lighthouse. Count the stars in the Milky Way and bask in utter peace and contentment.
‘Sea Meadow’ is a charming, shingle-sided cottage perched 75 feet from the ocean’s edge on the western shore of Blue Hill Bay. It has spectacular open views of the Blue Hill Bay Lighthouse set against the backdrop of Mount Desert Island. The cottage sits on four acres of land and is surrounded by grass and wildflower meadows. A private staircase provides access to the deepwater shorefront and beach with granite boulders. It is only a one hour and 15 minutes drive to Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island.
The living room/dining area walls are covered in antique barn board panelling and stone with a beamed ceiling. The den includes an entertainment center that is stocked with board games, puzzles, Roku television, Blu-ray player and more than 80 DVDs. There is a large deck that faces the ocean with a dining table and plenty of seating. The master bedroom has a queen-sized bed. Two additional bedrooms each have a single twin bed.
Brooklin is located on the southeast tip of the Blue Hill Peninsula between Blue Hill Bay and Eggemoggin Reach. It is a beautiful, quiet village that boasts it is 'the boatbuilding capital of the world.' Author E.B. White and his wife Katharine made it their home. Brooklin is the home of many fine boat builders, lobster fishermen, and the headquarters of WoodenBoat Magazine. People come from around the world to attend boat building or sailing classes at the WoodenBoat School. Brooklin is, quite simply, a very special place.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a phone.

Beautiful Getaway!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea Meadow cottage. The cottage itself was beautiful and well appointed. The furniture was comfortable and everything was very clean. The location is gorgeous being right on the bay with amazing views and within an hour of Acadia National Park. We enjoyed exploring the park, Bar Harbor, Bangor, and other smaller towns nearby. Mary Louise was responsive when we had questions. Couldn't recommend more highly and would love to come back to stay again!

Peaceful perfection

We can’t recommend Sea Meadow Cottage highly enough. Its location is utterly stunning, with astonishing sea and mountain views - you could stay in all day watching the light change and the seals playing in the water and listening to the birds. It’s so incredibly peaceful and beautiful, and the cottage itself is generously and comfortably equipped and furnished. But the wider area is wonderful too, with much to explore and discover - from Acadia National Park to the little towns of Blue Hill and Brooklin, and coastal walks and sea swimming. All round, a magical place....

Slice of Heaven

My husband and I chose Sea Meadow for our 25th wedding anniversary getaway. We couldn’t have been more pleased! This is the quintessential Maine cottage of your dreams. The beautiful views of Mt. Desert Island are simply breathtaking. The cottage is beautifully appointed with every comfort, including a perfectly stocked kitchen. Sea Meadow is also a good jumping-off point for visiting Acadia National Park and charming local towns. The property is very private and quiet. And having your own private beach on which to hunt for rocks and shells is a big bonus! We are already looking forward to our next visit to Maine and this lovely cottage.
