About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A small, rustic and private cottage. great for couples or a small family.

The Almighty Struggle is a small rustic, shingle style cottage, with an oversized deck. The cabin faces the Union River inlet with views of Acadia National Park in down east Maine.
Nestled in a clearing on 14 acres of natural woods and fields, you can see deer, turkey, porcupine, and maybe even a moose. The beach extends 400 feet along the shore and is great for exploring and swimming. It has ledges hosting mussels, crabs, sea urchins, and starfish.
You will enjoy watching the seals, kayaking, swimming, hiking, fishing, and watching the local lobstermen gather their traps.
The cottage is small, clean , and well appointed for couples and small families that want a private outdoor vacation experience.
We are well situated for day trips to Acadia National Park and exploring the villages of the Blue Hill Peninsula.
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected.
