Location:
The Pines is located on the north coast of Mount Desert Island overlooking Frenchman Bay. The cabin is just 7 minutes (2.5 miles) from the Acadia National Park Visitor Center and 13 minutes (5 miles) from Bar Harbor. There are fun and safe bicycle routes to both the park and town.
This secluded cabin nestled among pine trees, located about 150 yards from the shared cliffside deck used by all three Baycliff rentals: Baycliff Cottage, the Guest House, and The Pines. Perched at the edge of the property, the deck offers sweeping views of the bay, nearby islands, and distant mountains. With built-in bench seating and a picnic table, it’s a wonderful place to enjoy breakfast, unwind with a glass of wine, or share a peaceful picnic. Guests occasionally spot dolphins or seals in the water, and sometimes even a bald eagle soaring overhead.
The cabin itself features a wall of large windows across the front, bringing in beautiful natural light and connecting you to the surrounding woods and coastal setting.
A Note About the Cabin (Important):
The Pines is a rustic, uninsulated cabin. If it gets chilly outside, it will get chilly inside by morning. The wood stove provides excellent heat, and we also supply two space heaters and electric blankets to keep you comfortable.
The Cabin & Amenities:
- A large living area with kitchen (stove/oven, refrigerator, sink)
- Eating area and sitting area with a wood stove
- Two bedrooms, sleeping up to five guests
- Master bedroom: Queen bed
- Second bedroom: Twin-over-queen bunk bed
- WiFi and a TV for streaming from your devices
- Large covered porch for relaxing
- Charcoal grill
- Parking next to the cabin
Why Stay With Us:
This is a peaceful and quiet retreat. We’ve been renting The Pines and its sister cabin, The Guest House, for over 40 years, and many of our guests have been returning year after year. People come back for the tranquility, the natural beauty, and the simple joy of this special place.
It’s an ideal spot for couples or families, and pets are welcome. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how important it is to bring them along.
Rental Details:
- Rentals are Saturday to Saturday
- The property also includes a second cabin about 100 yards downhill and a house another 50 yards beyond that.
Beach Access Notice (Very Important):
The stairs to the beach were destroyed by storms in 2023, and there is currently no direct beach access. The cliffs, views, decks, and overlooks remain fully accessible and just as beautiful.
The Pines has a sister cabin on the property, The Guest House (VRBO #887888) and the Baycliff Cottage (VRBO# 1678236).
Bar Harbor Lic#: VR2R26-084
