From the owner

Along with my husband and family, I invite you to share with us the beauty of our home and cottages on Mount Desert Island, the home of Acadia National Park. Seaside Cottages share a 7 acre property with 500 feet of bold granite and stone beach shoreline between Mitchell and Duck Cove in the coastal village of West Tremont on the "quiet side" of MDI. The setting provides a southwesterly exposure with beautiful sunsets. Our location is private, decidedly un-commercial, and yet convenient to the facilities of the surrounding towns including Bar Harbor. While we enjoy living in the relative quiet of the western side of Mount Desert Island, the activities of Acadia National Park are literally at our back door.

Please come and enjoy our cottages whether you need a lovely private honeymoon cottage or just a peaceful, quiet vacation get-away. You will find our rates competitive and the setting incomparable.

Pinelodge Cottage is a waterfront cottage with two bedrooms, living room/dining area, fully equipped kitchen and full bath. One bedroom has a queen bed, one with two twins. Step through the sliding glass doors on to a large deck with comfortable seating to enjoy spectacular view of Blue Hill Bay. Enjoy the peace and quiet by sitting on the front deck or take a stroll down to the rocky beach. Either way you will enjoy the beautiful sunsets, as well as a very peaceful, private vacation spot.

Come, relax and enjoy our property with us. Kathy and Jay Shields

    Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It is especially nice when we have returning tenants like you. We are glad that you were comfortable with the new queen size bed. We were able to get a new internet service this year and several guests were also pleased. You are always welcome to come and stay with us.
