Find serenity on our 3-acre waterfront retreat. Unplug from stress at this cozy, rustic, well-equipped summer cabin with picturesque views of the ocean harbor and coastal Maine wildlife. Buy fresh lobster and clams at T.I.M.S. (island market) approximately 3 blocks away. Wi-Fi is now available at our cabin or go to the island Library. More importantly, go outside to hike, visit our historic lighthouse, swim at the quarry, nap in our hammock, sit on our granite bench by the ocean, visit island museums, and explore island beaches. On the main level of our cabin is the living and eating area, wood stove, kitchen, bathroom and utility room. There is a common sleeping loft with two queen beds and one twin bed, accessed by a sturdy ladder with handrails. There is also a queen-sized pull-out couch in the main room. There are books, playing cards, board games, CD's, DVD's, and puzzles, plus you can play Buoy Golf, a family favorite. Position buoys around the property and use putting irons and whiffle gold balls to chip your ball to hit each buoy. There's also a low deck at ground level and a high deck, which is ideal for fantastic views down harbor plus watching shooting stars at night. Go down to the pink granite ledge at water's edge, sit on our granite bench and enjoy the ocean breezes and marine wildlife. Swans Island is accessible daily by a State of Maine Ferry from Bass Harbor (near Bar Harbor). Please search for the Swan's Island Ferry (Maine Department of Transportation) for the schedule and ticket pricing. This is a 17-vehicle and passenger ferry--a 40 minute ride. Four reservations are sold for each ferry. Otherwise, it' first come, first serve. If you miss a ferry, just relax as you'll get on the next one. Please note: Swans Island is dry--no alcohol is sold on the island. Please bring any alcoholic beverages if you wish to partake. There is one store on the island (T.I.M.S.) and it's very well stocked, but it's more affordable to bring your groceries and drinks onto the island. T.I.M.S. is open every day and sells fresh lobsters at the lowest prices. They also sell homemade pizzas, which are tasty, on Wednesday and Fridays. Call ahead to place your order. Every Saturday morning, homemade sticky buns and cinnamon rolls are sold. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Music library - TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Limited housekeeping - Phone ### Location highlights - Near the marina - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Golf - Basketball nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Unit size: 800 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60840000/60838900/60838804/fa99a016.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lakefront Cabin near Acadia National Park Franklin - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 69 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-19&endDate=2026-02-20&selected=60838804&PinnedHotelID=60838804&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120120000/120111300/120111242/87ca103a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tranquil 2-bedroom house in Cherryfield Cherryfield - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-19&endDate=2026-02-20&selected=120111242&PinnedHotelID=120111242&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/71000000/70960000/70950700/70950698/bff19477.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanfront on the doorstep to Acadia National Park Trenton - Kitchen - Outdoor Space - Parking available - Fireplace 10 Exceptional 39 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-19&endDate=2026-02-20&selected=70950698&PinnedHotelID=70950698&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101880000/101877300/101877275/741181ce.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy cottage overlooking beautiful Bunker's Harbor in Birch Harbor, ME Gouldsboro - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 8 reviews CA $443 CA $638 total includes taxes & fees Feb 17 - Feb 18 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-17&endDate=2026-02-18&selected=101877275&PinnedHotelID=101877275&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Cottage (3 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94970000/94963000/94962934/b31be569.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Cottage on Cat Cove w/ Wraparound Deck!

Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing little cabin by the sea A very charming cabin that’s located on an awesome property, overlooking a little bay off the Atlantic. One evening after having spent the morning on a lobster boat and then steaming lobster and crabs in the cabin, I walked down to the stone peak on the shore. There were two seals near a school of fish about 30 yards out. Two bald eagles then swooped by, followed by an osprey. Everything about Swans Island is just great, a friendly community. I hadnt been to Maine before, and felt fortunate to be at the cabin rather than the busier villages nearby. Wish we could have stayed longer and soaked up more of that island time vibes. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b0494e7e-fce7-448d-8abc-9969cbd90ea8-1751767941706.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7d0b0ed6-208c-4a99-8867-acfde62e8ae2-1751767943461.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0a15a94e-0b6f-4f3e-82d1-959ce90753bd-1751767943330.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Michael P.
