Séjour de luxe, vues sur la montagne Acadia, accès direct aux sentiers, retraite artistique

Stay in the Heart of Acadia, safely tucked away on a ridge, with views of the mountains of Acadia National Park. Walk out the door in the morning to the quiet trails, while your friends and family sleep; set your mood; see the morning wildlife, feel the peacefulness of the park before others arrive.

Sleep well - we have all New luxury Aireloom mattresses in all main bedroom for 2024, while the office sofa bed has a new Plushbeds organic latex mattress and Meliusly support board.

Visit the town as the day unwinds, either taking a longer walk into town, or driving in, just 5 minutes to the center of town.

Take a drive on the park loop road from the nearby entrance; or book some time on the Kebo Valley golf course, all easily accessed from this location. When night falls enjoy stargazing from the deck in the darkness of our night sky compliant neighborhood. Close to all the town has to offer, yet far enough away to have privacy and the peacefulness of Acadia.

The Perch is a modern, solar powered, open concept, custom designed house that was completed in the fall of 2020. It is tastefully decorated with local art and quality furnishings. Set on over an acre of land, it is a place to relax, reflect and get in touch with nature. There are unobstructed views of Cadillac, Dorr and Kebo Mountains from all living spaces and decks, with peaks of Champlain and Huguenot Head poking through the trees. The yard has been left natural and is visited daily by deer, turkey and other wildlife.

The Perch was built in one of the best locations on the island, with direct access to everything the island has to offer, yet quietly tucked away next to Acadia in a newly developed exclusive, secluded neighborhood on over an acre of land. Town Green is minutes away, the Great Meadow trailhead just steps away, the Park Loop Road just around the corner, while the ride to the Carriage Trails is easier than biking from town. The entrance to the Cadillac mountain road is also nearby if you have reservations to see the sunrise or sunset, or you can plan out a sunrise hike from the house or the also nearby North Ridge trailhead. Directly bordering Kebo Valley Golf Club, there is no other place on the island closer to the course. A peaceful retreat with none of the noise, traffic and congestion of downtown, you can plan your day with a hike or bike out the door, even before the rest of your group is awake.

Daily hikes from our house are on the Jesup Path, Stratheden, Gorge Path, Kebo Mountain, Homan’s, Emery, Kurt Diederich’s Climb, Ladder Trail and even longer trips to the Top of Cadillac or Champlain Mountains.

All bedrooms and the Great room have views of Cadillac and Dorr Mountains. With 3000 square feet of living space, and two different decks, you will have room to spread out. The primary bedroom is spacious with a private deck, a new (2024) King size Aireloom mattress, en-suite bathroom with large soaker tub and cavernous custom shower. The upstairs bedroom has a new Queen size Aireloom mattress an en-suite bathroom, while the lower guest bedroom has a new Aireloom mattress and office bedroom has a queen size pull out sofabed.

While not ADA compliant, 2 story house has an elevator, wide doorways, a level bridge to enter the house and minimal thresholds. It is also a Smart Home that allows voice control of lights and the common area shades. If it is a rainy day or you just want to stay in, there is cable and streaming services on all TVs. There is also an outside infrared gas grill and a microwave tucked away in the island.

We also have worked hard to make sure you have extra towels, linens, soap, spices, condiments – all the things you would expect to have if you were home – including a few emergency items in case you forgot something or are arriving late. We want you to enjoy your time in our home on Mount Desert Island as much as we do.
