Tranquility Cove

Tranquility Cove is a gogeous cottage situated in a lovely wooded property (5 acres!), on a quiet tidal cove off Thomas Bay. Ths cottage is spacious and comfortable with a wonderful deck overlooking the water. Sunrises are spectacular there! The varied shoreline (sea grass, rocks) features a wooded pathway for easy access to the water for kayaking, swimming, etc. Located on a private road, Tranquility Cove offers a very quiet private setting, the delightful activities of a shorefront property and close proximity to everything Mount Desert Island has to offer. It’s a terrific family retreat!
