About this property

Oceanfront Maine Escape: Minutes to Acadia’s Quiet Schoodic Side

  • Wake up to harbor views, fall asleep to ocean breezes, and spend your days soaking in the quiet magic of coastal Maine. This bright and breezy 2BR/2BA cottage sits above peaceful Sorrento Harbor—just a 1-minute stroll to the Town Dock—and offers front-row seats to sunrises, sailboats, and soaring eagles.

    Why You’ll Love It
    Panoramic harbor views from nearly every room
    Sunny deck + rooftop perch for coffee, cocktails, and stargazing

    Quick access to Acadia National Park (quiet side!)
    Relax & Recharge

    The main living space is filled with natural light and sweeping water views—perfect for movie nights or lazy afternoons. Curl up with a book in the cozy sunroom or head downstairs for a second hangout space with a TV and queen futon.

    Cook & Gather
