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.
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Tidal Falls. The holiday home offers a kitchen and a washer/dryer.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washer/dryer and fireplace
  • Steps from Tidal Falls and 9 minutes by car from Sullivan Harbor Farm
Oceanfront Maine Acadia Cottage offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

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! :)

Home was cozy and the views were spectacular. Having breakfast one morning and six deer leisurely walked beside the window and down to the water. It was one of the cleanest properties we have ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

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.

This was our second visit to this cabin, and I am not disappointed with the accommodations of the property or its location to places of interest found in and around bar harbor and Acadia park. My wife and I will return here again if the opportunity ever presents itself in the future.

Have stayed at this location for the past 3 years and we want to go back. It is a peaceful stay for us in a beautiful location with an ever-changing view of the tidal river. The quality and attention to detail makes this cottage so comfortable. Location is perfect to visit both Acadia, Schoodic and of DownEast Maine, which we love to visit.

We absolutely loved it here and can’t wait to come back! The house is perfect and the views can’t be topped. We loved sitting out back and watching the tides and wildlife (lots of seals) and both said spending time at the house was a highlight of our vacation!

Fantastic Place
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!

My husband and I came to Maine for our 30th wedding anniversary. We always dreamed of coming to Maine. We found this place to stay and we were not disappointed! Everything from the towels to the bedsheets to the seats outside were top-of-the-line. Everything was immaculate. The host was warm and gracious. The views were incredible. We had the best week. I highly recommend staying here.

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.

5++ from us!
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!

Review of Hancock VRBO
Last year we stayed four nights... this year we stayed seven nights. We love this place. It feels like home. The view is outstanding... plenty of windows to bring the outside inside! The hosts invested in good cookware, sharp knives, plenty of towels...a good gas grill! It's all you would want in a home away from home. And a short distance away are wonderful places to bike along the beautiful coast of Maine. This place is easy to love!!!

Maine Vacation
Our stay at Tidal Ledge was OUTSTANDING! We couldn't have asked for anything better. The house was better then the descriptions clean, comfortable, with everything we needed. Waking up to the beautiful view out the windows was spectacular - even when it was rainy. Tracy couldn't have been a better host. She made us feel welcome and was available to answer questions. We really wished we could have stayed another week or two and hated to leave. If we ever come back to the area we will definitely try to stay at Tidal Ledge.
