Rich's Cove Cottage - Oceanfront home near Acadia Nat'l Park in Isle au Haut

This newly constructed artisan cottage is situated in the secluded Rich's Cove
on the north-eastern shore of Isle-au-Haut, an island about 5 miles
off the coast of Maine. The island is home to several well known Maine authors
and families that live there year round and those who summer there.
Isle-au-Haut is a beautiful island comprised of nearly 50% Acadia
National Park land, is serviced by two different ferry routes and
is accessible from Stonington, Maine (see the isle au haut boat
company online). In US News and World Report's
July 2005
special vacation issue, Isle-au-Haut was called the 'most beautiful
spot on Earth'.
Wake up to the sunrise over the Atlantic and the sounds of
lobsterboats and seagulls. Bike or take a short drive to beautiful
Acadia National Park.
Renting this cottage will allow you and your family and friends to
truly get away from it all and to experience Maine island life to
its fullest. A phone call will have caught-that-day lobsters
delivered to your home, a short bike ride will bring you to a
glacier-cut pond with waters as clear as glass.
The milky way is almost bright enough to light your evening by itself, not
the mention the opportunity for other stargazing.
You will not believe your eyes, nor will you want to leave...
Discounts for return renters apply (10% discount) after the first year and for
contracts longer than one week.
A flat fee of $40 for cleaning is applied to each bill. Please inquire if interested!

If you are flying in to the Bangor Airport, and are not renting a car (and do not want to pay for parking on the Stonington dock), we highly recommend Eddie's Island Taxi, which will transport you from the Bangor Airport to Stonington for a flat rate of $120. You can search them online at Maine Business Listings.
