About this house rental

Situated in Acadia National Park, this lovely house for $420 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Ledgewood Cottage is nestled on three private acres on the quiet side of Mt. Desert Island. Situated on an island at the northern end of Long Pond, the largest lake on Mt. Desert Island, the home is secluded but within easy reach of all the area has to offer. The beach at Long Pond, with its dock and canoe and kayak rental, is just up the road, and the towns of Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor are all an easy drive away. The nearby mountains are interlaced with National Park hiking trails. After a day of exploring the carriage roads and trails, lakes and villages of Mt. Desert Island, come back along the winding woodland road to the peace and comfort of Ledgewood Cottage. The house is a four bedroom year-round vacation home, and features spacious living rooms on two floors, as well as two distinct master bedrooms. The two upper levels are air conditioned, and the partially below grade lower level remains comfortable year-round. Entering from the comfortably furnished deck, you will enter a cathedral ceilinged great room. At the near end are a dining area and well equipped skylit chef's kitchen with two-oven Jenn Air range. Complimentary spices and condiments are provided. Beyond the kitchen, the larger section of the great room holds a living room, with two long couches, extra chairs, large flat screen TV and speakers. Area maps and guidebooks are provided here to help guests plan each day's adventures. Next to the great room is the large dining porch with seating for eight, the perfect gathering spot at the start and end of the day. Three walls of windows fill the room with sunlight, and a bar holds glasses and barware, as well as puzzles and board games. On the other side of the great room, a hallway leads to two pine paneled bedrooms. The main floor master bedroom has a king bed and en suite bathroom with both a walk-in shower and deep jetted soaking tub. Across the hall, a second bedroom holds two twin beds. A laundry and another full bathroom with large walk-in shower complete the main floor. Ledgewood Cottage's upper level holds the second master bedroom, a spacious relaxing sleep loft with king bed, two skylights, and view across the great room to treetops and sky. The lower level of the house holds the fourth bedroom, with four-poster queen bed and private outside entrance. Newly added this year on our lower level is a large second living room, with couches, tv, and table with board games and jigsaw puzzles. Our four bedrooms are distributed on three levels, providing guests with privacy. Our twin bedroom and pack and play are ideal for two or three younger children, and the other three bedrooms are suitable for adults and older children (the master sleep loft is just for adults). At Ledgewood Cottage, every effort has been made to provide visitors with a rewarding and memorable vacation. Our goal is to ensure that guests have everything they need, and will feel they have truly found a welcoming home away from home. Ledgewood Cottage is a no smoking, no pets vacation home. Due to our family's severe allergies, we cannot allow dogs under any circumstances. We ask that guests not request special permission for their own four-legged family member, regardless of size, breed, or good behavior.

Our stay was perfect in this beautiful spacious home tucked in a quiet spot but close to everything. It is a well cared for home and we have all good things to say! We hope to return someday. Happy guests from Vermont!

3 couples from MI stayed at this lovely hideaway in a wooded paradise in Mount Desert Maine. After long days on the trail we cooked in the well equipped kitchen and ate so much fresh seafood we made the official name of the vacation Butter Week. 10/10 would stay again.

We had the most remarkable stay! Peaceful, quiet, beautiful, everything we needed. Close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Couldn’t have been happier, or felt more at home!

We had a great time!! The house is clean and very spacious. We loved that we were close to Acadia but off the main roads to give you that privacy and those natural surroundings that make that area great. The owner is great to work with and provided all information in a very timely manner. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to the area. If you are looking for a close jumping off point to Acadia especially with a larger group or with kids, this is the house for you.

Beautiful, well maintained property on the quiet side of Bar Harbor. The listing is 100% accurate and exceeded our expectations. There is plenty of room for everyone and the home had everything we needed. Julie was fantastic to work with and it was a pleasure to rent her property. Comfy beds, beautiful linens and modern furniture.

Our family of 4 have been spending a week in Mt. Desert for the past 3 year and this time needed a larger house to accomodate another family of 3. This house did the job. The basement level good for a teen or kids to get some space - though ours never seem to give us much! Comfy large beds for rest after long days hiking Well located to be able to access any part of the island in under 30 minutes. Long pond beach 5 minutes away for a quick swim or canoe. Overall good house for reasonable cost to gain some space and serve as a good home base.to enjoy the beauty of Acadia

Our family enjoyed our stay at Ledgewood very much. It is located in the perfect spot for easy access to Acadia National Park but secluded enough to have a quiet family vacation. The house was adequately supplied to make family meals. We appreciated the spacious living space and large dining table.
