Photos and Description of this Milbridge holiday 2 BR (1 double, 1 twin), 1 bath, double futon in LR, sleeps 5, best for 1 couple

On a large, peaceful tidal bay in Millbridge, with long views to spruce-covered islands, our cottage is a cozy getaway. With lots of windows facing the water, this is a bright and cheerful little house. Deck overlooking the water. Cottage is just a few yards from the shore, and open to the ocean breezes. There are stairs to the shore, but the steep slope makes this spot unsuitable for children under 10. This cottage is located in a quiet neighborhood of other cottages and farms on Ray's Point, a finger of land extending into Harrington Bay... a beautiful part of Downeast Maine, with many points and islands to explore. See eagles and shore birds from the cottage and the deck, kayak in the bay and beyond (this is a tidal bay, so launching from the cottage is limited to hours around high tide; there is a deep water launch site in Milbridge). Nice area for biking and walking. The village of Milbridge ( post office, restaurants, movie theatre, etc.) is less than five miles away.

Location: Milbridge in USA

Nearest Airport: Bangor at 70 Miles
Car: necessary
The village of Milbridge (shopping, post office, restaurants, movie theatre, etc.) is less than five miles away. For day trips, Acadia National Park (Schoodic Peninsula area) is a half hour away, Bar Harbor and Ellsworth are 45-60 minutes drive. Petit Manaan National Wildlife Sanctuary (great birding and hiking) is less than a half hour drive. Campobello Island, New Brunswick (FDR's summer home) is within an hour and a half, as is Quoddy Head, easternmost lighthouse in the US. Lobsters and clams available in Milbridge (lobster and clam pots provided with cottage). This is one of the largest wild blueberry producing areas in the world, so there are plenty of berries available nearby during the season (late July through August) ... berry picking is permitted at Petit Manaan National Wildlife Refuge, in season.

Fabulous cabin in downeast Maine

Review Submitted: September 30, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
This was my first experience with a vacation rental and it was probably the best vacation I have had in years. The cabin is in a lovely peaceful spot right by a tidal bay. Very scenic, quiet and secluded but still only 3 miles from town. The accomadations were very comfortable and the cabin was spotlessly clean. The owners provided a lot of little touches that were very helpful such as mountain bikes to use, lots of information about area attractions and maps. The Milbridge area is a great location for day trips for nature lovers. It is an easy drive to Acadia and Campobello. The largest nearby town is Ellsworth which has some great shopping areas including an L.L.Bean outlet. There isn't a lot of nightlife here or upscale dining etc. If you are looking for that then stay south of Acadia. But if you are searching for a quiet, peaceful , relaxing stay then I would definitly recommend this cottage. I had a fantastic time.
