Brass tacks first. Cabin is great. Very clean and has all the necessary amenities for the entire family. Lots of windows flood the living space with natural light and afford amazing views of the bay and surrounding islands. Besides the seagulls and occasional lobster boat, the only thing you'll hear is the gentle lap of waves on the rocks outside. When it's time to tuck in at night, the cabin has books, TV, DVDs, and internet so you can reconnect with the outside world (should you choose) and the beds are comfy.
The location is great, within a short drive of Acadia and Schoodic Point. If you don't want to drive, it's a short walk from the cabin to Pigeon Hill for spectacular views (you really must make the climb, it's awesome). If you need some hustle and bustle, don't miss out on Bar Harbor which is about and hour away. If you're hungry, there are a ton of take-away joints nearby and Milbridge has groceries.
We had a chance to meet the owner of the property. We talked about the history of the property and were able to pick his brain about things to do and see. Speaking of which, if you don't get the chance to meet Karl...he has left plenty of information in the cabin to help you find attractions, food, restaurants, etc. (FYI, we invited Karl to visit. He won't just pop in unannounced if that sort of thing concerns you.)
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Steuben. We will be back to Pigeon Hill for sure.
