About this house rental

Situated in Sullivan, this lovely house for $405 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. Listen for the loons or watch for the eagles off the expansive wrap around deck at this secluded getaway home in DownEast Maine with views of Schoodic Mountain and access to Flanders Pond, a fresh water paradise with swimming and fishing. When you walk into this spacious lodge with pine walls and wildlife décor, you will feel the serenity. In the spring, the brook is rippling and you can sit outside and enjoy the comforting sound of running water in the trickling stream. The summer is perfect for splashing in the clear waters, fishing off the dock or kayaking out to the small island. In the Fall, the scenery is spectacular. As you drive into the Lodge, you will see the trees in various shades. At the Lodge, you will enjoy the view of the vibrant colors from the spacious wrap around porch. In the winter, bring your gear for ice fishing or snowmobiling. It is a beautiful sight when everything is covered with a blanket of snow. Not far off the Schoodic National Scenic Byway and the unspoiled, uncrowded Coast of Maine at its best. You will enjoy the mix of fresh water access with easy proximity to the salted coastal views along the Scenic Byway and the Acadia National Park. Located less than a half hour from the entrance of the Schoodic Penisula and the breathtaking Schoodic Point in Acadia National Park. The outdoor opportunities are endless. Whether it be hiking, biking or 4-wheeling or snowmobiling, you will have access to many trails in the area. The home has a full private beach on quiet Flanders Pond (the size of a lake) with provided kayaks. You can swim or fish in the pond. Beach front includes a dock suitable for up to 20 foot boat (not provided). Boat rentals are available in the area. Flanders Pond offers good fresh water fishing and is great for ice fishing. Join the ice fishing tournament in February for a chance at prizes! The private, spacious front yard overlooks the water and features a hammock, swing and fire pit. Enjoy the sounds of the babbling brook or the loons calling on the pond as you relax on the deck or enjoy the Adirondack chairs closer to the water. There is plenty of parking space for your vehicle and trailer so you can bring your boat or ATV or snowmobile. Located on a dirt road (2 miles on dirt road) with easy access to the Downeast Sunrise Trail system for ATV’s. Boat rentals are available nearby. This is a year round rental. Come and visit during the off peak tourist season for a lower rental rate. The large pond freezes and makes for good ice fishing or skating in the winter.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful cabin nestled in the woods of Maine. Breathtaking views of the lake, a beachfront fire pit to enjoy, and lovely, spacious accommodations. Naomi was a great host and communicated easily. I am only giving this rating five stars because six isn’t offered. Loved our stay! ❤️🍁🍂🦞🍷

This property is much prettier than the pictures show, it has everything at the house you could want without needing to leave, we had so much fun, the view is AMAZING! Naomi and her family could not be more gracious hosts! They truly care about you and want your stay to be perfect! The kids had an amazing time, Tidal Falls is a MUST see, we could not get enough of it, we went to Bar Harbor whale/dolphin watching, Acadia park, cadillac mt., ate Lobsters at Trenton Bridge (wonderful people) played adventure golf, shopped and so much more! Had a great week! Looking forward to a return trip in the future, MAINE is a beautiful State!

My wife and I stayed at the home with another couple and we were extremely pleased with our choice. First, the owner was extremely responsive and provided a home that was so clean and stocked with items that it allowed us to have an excellent six days touring the area. The property was 15+ minutes from Ellsworth and it was a very private site. The home was situated on a rise above the lake with a beautiful view. We thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit down by the lake and wish we’d had more time to enjoy the property. It was everything we had hoped and more. Whenever we had questions, the owner answered by text in a very timely manner. If we are in that part of the country again, that will be our place to stay.

We had such a wonderful stay and enjoyed being able to kayak, fish, and swim everyday while taking in the beautiful views. Most nights we enjoyed sitting by the fire and there were many local places to find firewood! The home is gorgeous and we loved the rustic feel and decor. Naomi was very responsive and helped to answer questions I had about the area. There was plenty of space for family dinners! We were all sad to leave!

This property is even better than the pictures posted! It was clean, very spacious and well stocked. We enjoyed early mornings on the deck overlooking the water and evening’s making s’mores around the fire. Location was an easy ride to Acadia and other points of interest. No need to travel to Ellsworth for supplies and food as the local market had everything we needed. One of the best properties we have stayed at!

We just got home from a wonderful week exploring Bar Harbor and the Acadia area of Maine...and we are already planning our next trip! Naomi's home was marvelous! Clean, private and had everything we needed for an amazing week! Enough Kayaks for our entire group...there are 6 individual and a double kayak! The pol table was a huge hit...we even had a family pool tournament one evening! Fire pit with everything you needed...minus the wood! They had s'mores sticks which the kids loved! I was slightly nervous about the "2 mile dirt road" drive...but it was actually totally fine! The road/gravel is hard packed and we had no problems at all! We saw plenty of deer and one day even a couple of porcupines! Also, Loon and a bald eagle on the pond! We always love seeing the wildlife! If you enjoy hiking...the hikes right off the road are quite nice! We did the upper trail one evening and even though we got a little wet because of the rain, everyone had a great time! Naomi had suggested Tidal Falls reserve and I would highly recommend as well! Very neat little park with a ton of starfish!!!! Wish we had planned to bring a picnic and stay longer! She also suggested Chippers and Ruth and Wimpy's...both great choices! Wimpy was very friendly ad let my husband and younger boys come int he back and look at the lobster...he was happy to talk and share his knowledge! Chippers was delicious, fairly priced and lots of choices! Wonderful Trip!!!! 5 Stars for the House!
