The Birches-New Twin A Frame!

Summary:
Surrounded by white birches, our twin A-frame cottage has been meticulously designed to ensure comfort and convenience while also providing that "away from it all" feel distinctive to Maine. Tucked back on a quiet road, this private, woodsy retreat is designed for effortless indoor/outdoor living while still being conveniently located just 30 miles from Bar Harbor and Acadia National park, and 10 miles from Ellsworth for shopping and all your essentials.

The Space:
Twin studios, each with their own full bath, queen bed, smart TV, and dedicated entrance are connected via a well stocked kitchen which includes all your basic appliances and a beautiful, custom built breakfast counter which folds out into a larger dining table as needed during your stay.

Guest Access:
In addition to the cottages, you will have access to a washer and dryer (accessible via a separate entrance on the back side of the cabins). We have also provided a separate outbuilding for our guests use which contains an additional full size refrigerator/freezer and storage space for bulky items such as suitcases, etc.

The Neighborhood:
The Birches is accessed from a quiet unpaved road a little over a mile off Toddy Pond Road. The Surry Store, located approximately 3 miles away, offers carry out, basic groceries and necessities, and beer and wine. Ellsworth is 20 minutes away and is the nearest larger town with all your essentials, shopping, restaurants and more. Surry offers scenic peninsula drives, beaches, and hiking as well as fresh and salt water fishing and kayaking from nearby boat landings. Surry is an excellent place for anyone looking to experience coastal life in Maine without the hustle and bustle of crowds.

Getting Around:
We highly recommend a car for getting around during your stay.

Cute property in the woods at the end of a dirt road - felt very private. The property was exactly as advertised, very well-maintained and clean - felt brand new. Lots of nice little touches - supplies for the campfire, toiletries, games, a well-stocked kitchen. I made dinner for the family every night and for such a small space the kitchen had everything you would need. Sitting out by the fire pit in the evening and being able to see a dark sky was perfect. We visited Acadia/Bar Harbor each day which was 45 minutes to 1 hour drive depending on exactly where we were going and that worked out well. The cabin would be perfect for a family with older kids like mine or for friends/couples who want their own space.

Space was perfect for us! The only down side is there is no AC. We stayed in the beginning of July and it got to 80 degrees. Made it a little uncomfortable to sleep but still gave 5 stars because it was super cute, we had no problems, and communication was great!!

The house was great. I was at first wishing there was a room inside to gather and sit but soon realized that just forced us to go outside which is the whole point of Maine in summer. Everything we needed was at hand and we met a family of fishers who live under the house…. First time to see one. Hope to come again!

Great property! Quiet and still close to everything! Great location for visiting the national park, then relax with peace and quiet in the evening. House was well stocked and the games was a nice touch. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent communication from the host, quick response for any questions. Highly recommend!

Would come back!

The house was great! Nice and cozy, the individual rooms gave enough privacy with still being close to family. Really appreciated the lighted sign at the end of the driveway. Had all the kitchen utensils we needed, even reusable togo coffee mugs!

This is a great place to stay for visiting Acadia National Park without being in the hustle and bustle of bar harbor. Local town Surry really nice, as was Ellsworth. Host Salt Air Properties were easy to connect with and provided great communication before arrival.
