Mischief Beach

Located on the “quiet side” of Mount Desert Island, Mischief Beach is a pleasant, spacious cottage on the ocean in the village of Bernard. Explore the rocky/ledgy shore while enjoying the open-ocean vistas. Situated in a private setting, the property enjoys several acres of woods along the shore. Close to Acadia National Park (10 minutes to Echo Lake and a few hiking trails, 30 minutes to the Cadillac entrance)! The lovely shoreline is great for kayaking, swimming, beachcoming and enjoying breathtaking ocean vistas. It’s located just a couple minutes from the popular Thurston’s Lobster Pound, 10 minutes from downtown Southwest Harbor, and 30 minutes from Bar Harbor, this comfortable cottage is a wonderful retreat for your family and friends, and convenient to all the attractions of Mount Desert Island!

The first floor of the cottage features a spacious eat-in kitchen, formal dining room (with water view), living room with a wood stove. Also on the first floor is a queen bedroom and full bathroom, as well as a wonderful porch overlooking the water.

The second floor features a king bedroom, a bedroom with two twins, a full bath, and a balcony overlooking the woods and water!

Amenities include dishwasher, microwave oven, A/C living room, dining room/kitchen, cable TV with DVD player, washer/dryer, gas BBQ, WIFI, and an air mattress. There is a landline phone (and cell service is okay).

Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park offer a multitude of activities, including whale watch tours, lighthouse tours, hiking, biking, kayaking, museum tours, gardens and of course fine dining and plenty of delicious seafood! On the “quiet side” visit the Bass Harbor lighthouse, Seawall picnic area, the Seal Cove Auto Museum, and ride the ferry to Swan’s Island for the day!
