Enjoy dwelling and sleeping in a woods cabin with access to acres more of walking trails. The sunrise cabin will be waiting for you after a Parking at the base and hike a 950 feet up the wooded hill The hike up is between 10-20 minutes depending on your level of fitness. Our dogs will guide you to the cabin where I’ll be waiting to give you the quick tour. You'll be able to walk among wild blueberries, mosses, lichens and huckleberries, spruce, pine, fir on the woods trail that leads to the cabin. “Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson Amenities include: Beautiful, but humble 140 square feet cabin, wood stove, 2 burner gas cook stove, solar patio lights, solar shower, 100 watt solar array that powers lights, USB ports and small 12v DC appliances. An outdoor kitchen that has the basics to prepare a camp meal or grill hotdogs and marshmallows over the open fire. A large stone fire ring, chairs, and total privacy. 5 gallons of potable water for each night you spend is provided. Minutes from Acadia, Ellsworth, Bangor, Belfast. For those who desire privacy, beauty and peace. Ideal for writers, painters, hikers, retreaters, honeymooners, romantic get-aways, photographers, nature lovers, and revelers of summer Maine fun. A quick 10 minute orientation on arrival. The cabin is fully outfitted with a wood stove for heat (including firewood for your splitting enjoyment--lessons provided by request), propane stove for cooking, small kitchen with cookware and kitchen basics, solar lights for overhead lighting, small dining table, several canvas chairs, coolers for cold items, games, small library, and an outhouse complete with solar shower. “I’ve loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.” -Galileo Galilei Bringing a warm sleeping bag will enhance your stay in cool Maine nights or when the mist rolls in. The key to staying warm is closing the windows at sundown, and then feeding the fire in the wood stove. We provide hardwood, you provide the human power to get it in the wood in the stove. Splitting and hauling.

This cabin is ideal for those who want to travel around and see Maine’s attractions: Acadia National Park, drive by Steven King’s house and take a tour, Kayak the ponds, lakes, rivers and sea, eat seafood and other Maine delicacies. And have the comfort of your own private woods cabin to settle in at night. “I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees.” - Henry David Thoreau Pets We are pet friendly. However, we do not accept all pets. As you sent a request to bring your friendly, well-trained, well-behaved pet, we have accepted that being the case. We do not discriminate against large dogs. We have large dogs. Your dog will be expected to meet me and my dogs and interact appropriately. If your dog cannot do that, it is not welcome. We do discriminate against mean, biting, untrained and misbehaving ones. You will pass by our henhouse where our chickens may be roaming at large. It is important for you to keep your dog on the leash until you hit the rock wall. We also have geese, they are of the nice geese persuasion, they will usually veer away from you upon being approached. We do not want any pets chasing our geese. They have goslings now so will be protective of their young. At the cabin, they are welcome to be off leash, but should respond to voice commands and not be left outside unattended. Also, Maine is very dog friendly. There are few places you can’t take your pet. If you’re not pet friendly, please let us know.A small cabin in the woods, to contemplate the daily musings of a Maine vacation, make coffee in an outdoor kitchen, make an outdoor fire under the stars.

Hike-in Sunset Cabin in the Woods
L.B et Kristina sont des personnes très simples et accueillantes. Le coin est paradisiaque et la chalet très coquet. Nous n'y avons pas passer énormément de temps (en raison des sorties quotidiennes) mais nous avons apprécié le temps. Je les recommande fortement.
