2 Bedroom Cottage in Surry

Dramatic Oceanfront Cottage with Stunning Views of Acadia National Park!
2 Bedroom, 2 Full Baths sleeps 4 - maximum 6 (new queen sofa bed or hi-rise inflatable air mattress for overflow guests)
Shift into idle in this lovely cottage by the sea. Sleep to the rhythmic sounds of gentle waves lapping on your shore. Prolific wildlife abounds; eagles, loon, osprey and an occasional seal. Sunrises here are some of the most magnificent on planet earth! Her reflection off the sea might even dance across your ceilings if you are an early enough riser and have a desire to connect with the beauty that surrounds you here.
The ocean and all her treasures are right at your footstep with a stunning porch that hangs over the sea and access to some of the finest lobster Maine has to offer just a few doors down at a quint New England, locally-owned, lobster shack. Exceptional panoramic, 180-degree views of Acadia National Park. Conveniently located only 15 minutes from two quintessential New England villages; Blue Hill and Ellsworth for restaurants and shopping. Endless outdoor adventures are to be found in this part of Downeast Maine. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park are a 50 minute drive. Nearby hiking, boating, horse-back riding, bike riding, mountain climbing, painting, whale watching, fishing, sailing, kayak rentals and more are all available.
FYI if you are coming with small children; this property is literally right on the ocean. Porch overhangs the water and stairs down to the sea, neither are child proofed. Please take care. That said, the owner's children enjoyed the home since they were wee. Epic Atlantic, typically calm waters for little ones. Also note no play yard.
This is a non-smoking, no pet vacation rental property.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay here. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because of an ant problem. There was ant bait set out and spray to use so that was helpful. Otherwise this place is perfect for the gorgeous views and peaceful surrounding. I would stay here again.
Randy S. Jun 14, 2025 08:51:36 AM
Summary: Absolutely beautiful property! We spent time almost every day just sitting on the deck listening to the waves lapping at the shore below.
Abigail B. Jun 4, 2025 06:29:42 PM
Summary: What a beautiful spot! Although it was a ways away from the area attractions, we loved the peace and serenity. The kids enjoyed exploring the shoreline and playing the board games there while mom and dad relaxed and enjoyed the view. The house had everything we needed.
Devin S. May 27, 2025 06:10:13 AM
Summary: Very beautiful and spacious home ! Awesome views to Acadia .

Summary: This was our sons first trip and we couldn’t have stayed at a better place. Amazing views and great location close to Acadia National Park! We will be back!
Amber G. May 14, 2025 10:28:47 AM
Summary: The view from the house cannot be surpassed. A really lovely location. Quiet, peaceful and off the beaten path. Close to Ellsworth if you need a good-sized grocery store or can’t live without a chain restaurant. Acadia and Bar Harbor are just as easily accessible. The space itself is reasonably sized and can easily accommodate four adult guests for sleeping. The downside is that, like a lot of good waterfront properties in Downeast, it’s cheaply furnished, slightly rundown and in need of some updating. It’s also run by a property manager so there isn’t really personalized attention given to things. Linens, towels and dishware were all musty and smelled like they were put away wet. Very minimal creature comforts. The outdoor space was cramped (no room to accommodate the maximum number of guests allowed) and the setup didn’t take advantage of the view. Very confusing and contradictory heating and cooling instructions as well. I would probably stay again, especially at this time of year when the main road was quiet and prices might have been lower. Pictures were technically accurate but somewhat misleading once you got the layout in person.

Summary: We loved our stay at Idle Hour II. Especially all the windows from which we could take in the surroundings. Bar Harbor and Acadia was an easy 45 min drive. Beds (seemed to be the same) were not our favorite for comfort. Everything's was clean and had the amenities we needed. Having 2 camping chairs in the utility room was great - we ate our lunch on Sand Beach in comfort! We would definitely stay again.

Summary: This place was perfect for a five day getaway of peace, relaxation, and stunning water views. Loved it.
