Hodgdon Pond Farm, Vacation Rental cottages, Acadia National Park

Cottage 2 from driveway Encompassing over 7.4 acres of woods and pasture with 825 feet of frontage on a 40-acre lake, Hodgdon Pond Farm is private but accessible. We are close to Bar Harbor and even closer to the quaint village of Somesville, the center of Mount Desert Island, only 4.8 miles away. The inlet and outlet of Hodgdon Pond as well as the entire opposite shore are owned and protected by Acadia National Park. Guests can enjoy swimming, fishing, and canoeing as well as seeing birds and animals including eagles, osprey, kingfisher, loon, beaver, fox, raccoon and deer and occasionally otter, moose and bear.

The cottages are widely separated from each other. Each has frontage on the lake and its own dock, two kayaks, a paddle board and a canoe. In addition, there is a utility rowboat at Cottage 1 that guests staying there are welcome to use. Each cottage has three bedrooms and two baths and contains over 1,400 square feet of living space.

The extraordinary resources of Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park await the visitor with over 33,000 acres of land, trails and regularly scheduled nature walks and trips to outer islands. Boats are available for charter or day trips. Numerous museums, concerts, excellent restaurants, shops and art exhibits provide indoor attractions.

Cottage 2 is slightly larger than Cottage 1 because there is a dormer in the Master Bedroom with a window that offers a sweeping view down Hodgdon Pond. The water is also deeper at Cottage 1 and for these two reasons we charge slightly more per week for Cottage 2 than for Cottage 1.

The rate includes utilities except international or three-party phone calls, Pay-per-View through Direct TV, and no more than 3 gigabytes of data per week. Excess will be charged at $15.00 per GB. The rate does not include the Maine sales tax of 9% or a fee of $100 for cleaning. There is an additional fee of $250 for parties over 6, and occupancy is limited to 7 people.

Amenities

The cottages are fully furnished and each has a washer, dryer, dishwasher, microwave, radio, television, DVD, and charcoal grill. We supply all linens.

A sailing dinghy is provided for Cottage 2, and a Walker Bay 8” dinghy is provided for Cottage 1. The utility rowboat, (a bit unwieldy) is available for both cottages.

The cottages sleep 6 or 7. See details and more pictures on
