Downeast Retreat - The Downeast Retreat overlooks Pigeon Hill Bay and Bois Bubert Island with the Petit Manan Lighthouse beckoning you within sight in the Atlantic Ocean
Vacation Rental Home Description
Presenting the "Downeast Retreat" on Pigeon Hill Bay in Steuben, Maine.
This beautiful, new waterfront property is now available for your enjoyment. The Downeast Retreat sleeps up to six and includes ceramic tile, radiant heat floors, spacious accommodations and organic architecture that takes advantage of all your surroundings no matter where you are in the cottage.
Wake up to the sunrise over Bois Bubert Island while the ever-changing tides of Pigeon Hill Bay greet you each morning. Watch the local fisherman as they set out to sea for the day's fresh catch.
Take in the salt air as you watch an eagle travel the coastline along the Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge, where a vast array of migratory birds and waterfowl come to nest on the remote, offshore islands. Wild blueberries in season, fresh lobster and clams are also only a walk away.
Whatever the season, you can always nestle yourself in the spacious loft or cozy nook of this Downeast Retreat, listening to the songbirds or the sounds of the peaceful brook. The enchantment of the restless sea and the sounds of the echoing foghorn of Petit Manan lighthouse beckon you to the natural beauty surrounding this waterfront cottage.
Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park and the quaint town of Ellsworth also make great day trip destinations to complete your authentic Maine experience. Take a cruise to Nova Scotia from Bar Harbor or experience the heart of Downeast Maine with a drive from the cottage to the Canadian border - only an hour and a half away.
