One of the more romantic cottages we offer for rent, this beautiful new cottage on the shores of Pigeon Hill Bay is a great retreat for honeymooners or a small family looking to get away from it all. Close to the villages of Steuben, Milbridge, and the entrance to the Schoodic Point section of Acadia National Park, this property is also a wildlife lover's dream. Despite the label that this property is on an island, it is easily accessible by car over a causeway.

With views from every room, any gourmet cook will love preparing meals in this kitchen with stainless steel countertops and appliances. Curl up on the couch on a cool day and warm by the gas fireplace stove while watching birds in the bay. At low tide, clam diggers work along the shore. Be sure to introduce yourself and buy some of Maine's most delicious natural treat. Live Lobsters and Crabs may also be purchased daily from nearby Dorr Lobster Pound, also located on Bar Island.

This property is the place to come relax and catch up with your thoughts and find time to rejuvenate. Sit on the deck or take a walk. All the basic things in life will seem so pleasant while enjoying Bar Island Cottage. Very private and facing west, this property enjoys spectacular sunsets and nighttime star gazing.

If kayaking is your thing, the sandy beach next to the cottage allows you to launch your kayak through the upper half's of the tides. Use the sandy beach at night for cookout or lobster bake, or just as a spot for a romantic fire for two.

Just three years old, the cottage features a queen-sized bedroom downstairs next to a shower-stall bathroom with full laundry. Up a 10' ladder is the loft with two twin beds. Parents with young children may want to consider the height of the ladder when deciding if the cottage is right for their kids.

The town of Steuben itself is a small village of talented artists, craftsmen, writers and lobster fishermen. Steuben also is famous for Petit Manan Island, a national wildlife refuge named by Champlain. It was named such because it reminded him of the island of Grand Manan in Florida. A hike up pigeon hill across the cove will give you beautiful views of the surrounding islands. The beach at Roger's Point is unique. You can walk the beaches on 3 sides at low tide and walk out onto an island. The neighboring town, Milbridge is also historical and provides shopping, dining and a historical movie theater.
