Ocean Frontage

Among oceanfront luxury vacation rental properties the difference that makes for distinction is exceptionally blessed ocean frontage.

The south-facing Oceansedge offers particularly scenic and completely unimpeded oceanfront vistas that are among the most majestic on the Eastern seaboard for including: the Town's harbor, Acadia's descending Cadillac Mountain range, and captivating moonrises and dawns over the ocean.

Oceansedge also offers safe and convenient access to a usable shoreline for kayaking; privacy and serenity for there being no public way on the property; 5 different oceanview decks and patios meant for outdoor dining, including at the shoreline; warm sunshine joined with prevailing sea breezes from the cool North Atlantic.

Location

Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park

Bar Harbor, a fabled oceanfront town on Coastal Maine, is the host community and fortunate beneficiary of the 100-year old and richly endowed Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island.

The unchanging natural grandeur of the huge 30,000-acre Acadia National Park has allowed Bar Harbor, not just to endure, but to become the most admired and enjoyed seacoast resort community in New England.

The New York Times seems to agree: www.nytimes.com/2022/07/20/travel/national-parks-hidden-gems.html

Guests of the Oceansedge property – which vacation rental property is located on the oceanfront in Bar Harbor just one mile from the Hulls Cove Reception Center for Acadia National Park – enjoy countless inspirational and memory-making adventures.
