Summary: Amazing! A wonderful cabin in the woods on the water close to Brooklin and Blue Hill but far away from everything.
Dan C. Sep 1, 2024 02:02:35 AM
Summary: Walks, birding, kayaking, and absolutely great weather -- what's not to like?
Laura J. Aug 16, 2024 08:23:19 AM
Summary: We had a fantastic time spending almost a week at the Bivalve. It was not too long of a drive to Acadia and other beautiful places to explore. It was the perfect spot for the five of us to enjoy our first family vacation in almost a decade!

Summary: Our second visit. Quiet location, easy distances for daytrips and screened-in porch when not day tripping. We are senior citizens, and we discovered last summer that it's difficult to maneuver the canoe in and out of the water (although the owner has now built a "launch deck"). We rented kayaks from the Activity Shop--they deliver and retrieve them--and enjoyed using the deck for sipping wine and reading. If you like the Maine woods, water, etc., it's a five-star location.

Summary: The Bivalve, a rustic cabin on a quiet cove, is the perfect place to get away but still be close to good restaurants (Brooklin Inn, Tinder Hearth, Aragosta) and great hiking (Acadia and Great Pond Mountain). The kitchen is well stocked and the screened-in porch, right on the water, is idyllic. Saw seals and eagles daily. We hope to return.

Summary: We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this adorable cabin! The rustic vibe perfectly complemented the beautiful surroundings, yet it was equipped with all the modern amenities one could wish for. The privacy was unparalleled, allowing us to truly relax and unwind. The views were stunning, and the sunsets were breathtaking! One of our favorite features was the screened porch, which was perfect for enjoying dinners and morning coffee while taking in the serene atmosphere. The location was ideal for exploring the area. We were just a short drive away from Blue Hill, Deer Isle, and Stonington, which offered plenty of outdoor activities, charming shops and restaurants. Acadia National Park was also within a reasonable driving distance, making it a great day trip option. Overall, this cabin exceeded our expectations and provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable getaway. We highly recommend!

Summary: The description of the cabin was exactly as advertised. The pictures were accurate. We gathered mussels and dug clams, a true mollusk gathering cornucopia. The cabin is well located to the tiny, but charming town of Brooklin, the upscale town of Blue Hill, and is in striking distance to Deer Isle and Barr Harbor. Visiting the Wooden Boat property is a must and an easy walk from the cabin! Despite the petit scale of the building, it’s lovingly appointed with all modern conveniences. The outdoor shower is a delight. The beach is great for beach combing and the inlet is easy to access via Terry’s canoe.

Summary: We stayed for 6 nights in June 2024 (family of 3, with our teenage daughter). The house is exactly as described on the website. It is really directly at the water in a beautiful and quiet and peaceful setting. It is wonderfully suited to relax and wind down and enjoy nature at its best. The cabin is beautifully appointed and has everything needed for a comfortable stay. A big plus is the screened in porch with the view on the water and ample space for meals al fresco. Another highlight is the provided canoe which allows for fun and memorable moments on the water, such as sunset cruises. The tide recedes far enough to muck around and collect mussels and clams for your dinner fresh from the sea. Another plus is the outside shower. The kitchen is completely equipped to cook sea food, including fresh lobsters. The location close to Blue Hill is just a 20 minute drive to excellent fish market and wine store and supermarket. Also the quaint little fisher village Stonington where one can get fresh lobsters right off the boat is just a 40 minute scenic drive away. Even to Acadia it is only a bit more than an hour and the drive is beautiful. The cottage is big enough for a small family and a really cozy place. One cannot go wrong with this place. The owner is super easy to communicate with and the check in and check out were super easy and straight forward. We give this a complete 5 star rating and can highly recommend to anyone seeking to spend some quality time close to nature.

Summary: I can't say enough how much I loved our stay in Brooklin. It was so peaceful and I loved being at the waters edge. The screened in porch was amazing. I loved waking up with a view of the water. The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking meals. So many fun daytrips nearby. Feeling very well rested. Hope to return someday!

Summary: This was our second year staying at the Bivalve. It was perfectly quiet and relaxing. The eagles, osprey, king fisher, pipers and seagulls were the best entertainment while viewing from the screened porch. This quaint and charming cottage is clean and well equipped with everything you need. My favorite is the refreshing outdoor shower! We hope to return again.
