Boasting breathtaking views of Bass Harbor, this oceanfront home is a place of dreams and unforgettable memories. When you aren't gazing out at the vast blue depths of the ocean from the balcony, head down to the beach, steps away from the home's backdoor.

Inside, the home's rustic-style interior will welcome you with open arms. Show off your culinary skills amongst the updated appliances and ample meal prep space in the full kitchen. And indulge in family-style meals at the scenic, wooden dining table.

Board game nights can commence in the family room, and your vacation garb can be refreshed in the private washer/dryer. Before exploring the area, get energized by a barbecued meal prepared on the gas grill. In Bass Harbor, take a short and peaceful walk to Bass Harbor Lighthouse, and enjoy the nearby trails of Ship Harbor and Wonderland.

Wonderful stay in Bass Harbor. House was exactly how it was described.

Check in was so simple, kitchen was equipped with all the amenities as described. WiFi was great in the house but a little weak when on the deck. We were close to Bar Harbor, but Bass Harbor had great stores, restaurants and cafes. Hiked a number of trails close to the house. Just a short walk to the lighthouse.

Oceanfront Gem

This home was a well-equipped quiet escape for our family trip to Acadia. We enjoyed relaxing on the back deck at the end of the day watching nature and the harbor activities.
