Birch Harbor Cottage | Private Waterfront Redwood Cottage on Harbor Near Acadia Schoodic Point

2 Bedroom Cottage in Birch Harbor

Our redwood cottage is a wonderful house perched on the ledges above Birch Harbor. It has gorgeous views and has plenty of wonderful blueberries for picking. You can watch the tides from the kitchen table and see the humming birds flit past the windows. It is private, the last house on the road, surrounded by trees and has a wrap-around deck for taking in the quintessential views of Maine. It is located 5 minutes from Winter Harbor and the Schoodic Peninsula portion of Acadia National Park. The property extends down to the water 100 feet away and it is possible to launch small boats, kayaks, or canoes right from the rocks below the house. The large combined living/dining area provides a great place to gather for meals or with friends. Natural tide pools on the shore provide a great temporary home for crabs and starfish before the tide comes back in. There is even a bald eagle that sometimes perches in the trees in front of the house. Well behaved pets are always welcome.
Schoodic Point: Acadia National Park: The cottage is only a few minutes from Schoodic Point, a beautiful part of Acadia National Park. There are picnic areas, a dock where you can fish or look for sand dollars, and hiking trails. Biking is also great around this area. It is far less populated than the Bar Harbor area and is very relaxing.
A canoe/kayak/bike rental place is just 5 minutes away and they also repair bikes if you run into trouble with yours.
The cottage waterfront...: The house overlooks Birch Harbor, a small sheltered harbor with a few lobster boats and lots of scenery. Walks along the water are wonderful with the rocks and seaweed making for classic Maine views. The tidal range is about 6-8 feet here so there is always something new to see in the ever-changing landscape. Carry-in boat access is available right from shore - perfect for kayaks or canoes. The blueberry picking is excellent on the ledges around the cottage - perfect for muffins or just eating them plain!
Our Family: My aunt originally built this cottage on Birch Harbor back in the mid 1960s. The redwood construction has been perfect for a Maine getaway. She was a snow bird - spending winters in Florida and her summers in Maine at the cottage. She loved the blueberries and would make us fresh muffins whenever we visited as kids. We would take trips down to the docks and buy lobsters off the boat. It was at the cottage that we learned the wonders of the sea by collecting sea creature from the tidal flats and putting them in the tide pool - only to be washed away at the next tide. Her kindness has allowed us to keep visiting the cottage and now to share it with others. I hope you choose to stay at our little retreat and that you will come to love it as we do.
Mobility Impaired Access - Several folks over the years have asked about access to the cottage for folks who have mobility issues. The driveway is gravel but not rutted in any way. There is a single ~8" step from the driveway and a single ~7" step into the house proper. There are steps on the other side of the deck but they are avoidable. The path to the water is informal and about 150ft to the water so the path would be more challenging for a mobility impaired person. We want you to have a wonderful time!

Mary P. Jul 3, 2025 08:09:02 AM

Summary: The property was as advertised. We really appreciated the games and the bikes. Very quiet and secluded, but yet close to restaurants and the schoodic portion of Acadia.

Brenda A. Sep 4, 2024 09:46:24 AM

Summary: Location was beautiful, quiet and private. View to the water was wonderful. Very peaceful. Saw the eagle and hummingbird. Cottage is clean, exactly as pictured. Bed was very comfortable. Would stay again.

Jim R. Jun 25, 2024 08:41:47 AM

Summary: This was a great place for us to stay while visiting Acadia National Park and the surrounding area. The owner Dan made us feel very welcome and ensured our stay was comfortable. The check in and out process extremely easy. Having a clother washer and dryer available was a plus.

Summary: This is a great cottage on the water at one if the coves near Prospect Harbor. Not only is there the cove, there is a babbling brook near the house ( or a gushing waterfall after heavy rain). If the brook is silent due to no rain, you can hear the ocean waves on the other side of the cove. We experienced all 3 during our ten day stay. Kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need for cooking, views are great, very quiet and private. Host is very responsive. Could not have been a better place

Summary: Had a great time staying at this property. It was quiet, secluded and very peaceful. Being able to bike the schoodic peninsula right from the house was wonderful. I worked a bit and the internet was very capable, cell service was spotty. There were wonderful places to eat very nearby, including the pickled wrinkle. Would very much stay here again! Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Summary: If you're looking for a private spot consider this cottage, pet friendly in every way and quiet yet very close to the Schoodic loop and Winter Harbor. Small but well appointed in every way. I brought a small hummingbird feeder and was rewarded with a little juvie hummer every day right off the kitchen window :) Note: we also found a feeder in the closet so no need to bring your own!

Diana W. Jul 13, 2023 11:00:55 AM

Katie S. Jul 2, 2023 06:20:42 AM

Summary: Really great time! Family of 4 here for a week to explore Acadia, and enjoyed some good eats too. The beds in both rooms were super comfyll stocked bathroom with plenty of towels, and cleaning supplies as needed in the kitchen. Very clean - we are an asthma/allergy family and travel with hepa filters and breathing treatments just in case. None were needed this trip! Well equipped kitchen with metal/glass/porcelain wear. We are also a family of food allergies and celiac- we bring stainless steal pots and utensils just in case the kitchen is mostly plastic. We also didn't need to use them. Really close to the schoodic entrance of Acadia, about an hour to bar Harbour , but a nice drive. On the schoodic side we explored blueberry hill and the anvil trail In the main park Ocean path Thunder hole Jordan Pond We had a really fun meal at the pickled wrinkle ( 5 minutes away) and they were able to accommodate our celiac and dairy allergies. The Downeaster in Winter Harbor had good iced coffee. On Tuesday there was a fun farmers market in Winter Harbor by the treehouse restaurant. Restaurants in Bar Harbor ( delicious qnd also able to accommodate our dietary needs) SideStreet Cafe Peeky Toe Provisions CJs ice-cream ( softserve almond milk ice-cream, blueberry flavor was amazing!) We also drove to Northeast Harbor and had a meal at the Noreaster ( they have a gluten free dedicated fryer) my husband who doesnt need to be gluten free kept checking because it was all so d
