Private Oceanfront Retreat on Acadia’s Quiet Side, Harbor Views, True Maine

Where the ocean sets the pace, a private authentic world near Acadia Schoodic Point, away from the crowds of Mount Desert Island.

Set on the edge of Gouldsboro Bay in the working harbor village of Corea, this oceanfront home offers something increasingly rare on the East Coast: space, silence, and an authentic connection to the water.

Located on the Schoodic Peninsula, the quiet, uncrowded side of Acadia National Park, this is where those in the know come to experience Maine as it was meant to be: rugged coastline, lobster boats in the harbor, and days shaped by tide, weather, and light.

The home sits on a private stretch of waterfront with expansive views across the bay. Inside, an open-concept living space is designed to bring the outdoors in, with large windows, natural light, and comfortable gathering areas for family and friends.

Five bedrooms, four and 1/2 baths and a luxury sauna comfortably accommodate up to twelve guests, making it ideal for both quiet retreats and meaningful time together. Ideal for families and couples looking to unplug and reconnect, nature lovers who prefer quiet over crowds, and for those seeking an authentic Maine coastal experience.

What makes this place truly special is the oceanfront setting with direct access to the shoreline. Located in Corea, a historic working lobster village, not a tourist town, 10–15 minutes to Schoodic Point, one of the most dramatic and uncrowded areas of Acadia Panoramic water views and ever-changing coastal light. Peace and privacy that’s increasingly hard to find the experience.

Mornings begin with coffee as fog lifts off the bay. Midday might take you hiking the granite cliffs of Schoodic or exploring tidepools along the shore. Evenings are for fresh lobster, a glass of wine, and watching the light fade over the water.

This is not a resort, and that’s exactly the point. There are no crowds, no lines, and no distractions. Instead, you’ll find clarity, stillness, and a deeper kind of luxury, the kind that comes from being somewhere real.

Plan to bring groceries and enjoy cooking-in or fire-up the outdoor grill while enjoying a spectacular sun-set. Weather can be dynamic (fog, wind, sun), part of the Maine coastal experience. Bar Harbor and Mount Desert Island are about an hour away if you want a day trip.

If you’re looking for polished luxury, there are plenty of options. If you’re looking for authentic Maine, oceanfront solitude, and a place to truly rest and reset, this is it. The Haguelnn House has everything Coastal Maine has to offer.
