Experience lake living at its finest. This charming 2BR/2.5BA cottage offers a private dock on Leonard Lake -- complete with a provided canoe! Find plenty of indoor/outdoor entertaining space between the screen porch, wraparound deck, and large yard with a hammock and firepit.

Within minutes of the Ellsworth city center, your prime locale offers quick access to the best attractions in the Bar Harbor and Acadia area.

LIVING AREA

A plush futon and two armchairs provide comfy seating in the living area, while a freestanding gas stove adds to the cozy ambience. Curl up with a good book or stream favorite shows on the smart TV.

Enjoy beautiful woodland views from the screen porch, which provides another futon and a table.

KITCHEN & DINING

Whip up home-cooked meals in the well-equipped kitchen, which features a full suite of appliances. A beautiful bay window over the sink provides a sunny spot to prepare tasty creations.

When you’re ready to eat, gather at the dining table for six.

BED & BATH

This two-story home sleeps four adults and two kids between two bedrooms and the futon in the living room.

Sleep soundly in the well-appointed primary suite, which features a queen bed and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower.

The lofted second bedroom offers a queen bed and an en-suite half bath. Thoughtful touches include a writing desk, a chaise lounge, and privacy curtains to close off the partially open space to the living area.

The guest bathroom is configured with a walk-in shower.

OUTDOOR AREA & AMENITIES

Enjoy direct access to the lake with your own private swimming dock (with a kid-friendly swim ladder) and canoe. Spend fun-filled days on the water, then return home to relax outside.

Stretch out in the hammock and unwind to the soothing sounds of the wind chimes. Barbecue burgers on the gas grill, dine alfresco, and roast marshmallows around the wood-burning firepit.

EXTRA PERKS & MORE DETAILS

Extra perks include complimentary Wi-Fi, a stackable washer/dryer, and provided firewood for the outdoor firepit. One canoe, three paddles, and four life jackets will be available during your stay.

Driveway parking is available for three cars.

There is a window air-conditioning unit in the primary suite and a free-standing unit in the loft.

Please note, the swimming dock and ladder are available mid-June through mid-September, and the canoe section will be closed in mid-October.

THE LOCATION

Gorgeous, quiet property
Our stay was great at the lake house. Clean, quiet, relaxing. The description is a bit misleading, though. The house is not lakeside like it states. You have to travel down a hill and across a street in order to get to the lake. Other than that, highly recommend staying here.

Relaxing
Cozy and comfortable! Loved the screened in porch! Kitchen is stocked. The only item is you have to walk down the hill and across the road, down the steps to get to the dock.
