Come in, kick off your shoes, and let the bay do the rest.
A quiet waterfront cottage on the edge of Passamaquoddy Bay — minutes from Bar Harbor, an hour from Acadia, and nowhere else you'd rather be.
A place to slow down, breathe, and actually relax.
Lazy Acres Cottage sits on a quiet stretch of Ferry Road along the shores of Passamaquoddy Bay in Hancock, Maine. We opened our doors to travelers who want something better than a rushed stopover — a real place to settle in, watch the water, and remember what a vacation feels like.
Whether you're using us as a quieter base for Acadia National Park, celebrating an anniversary on the coast, or simply need a weekend without an alarm clock, we've made sure this cottage has everything you need and nothing you don't.

What our guests are saying.
"We stayed here for three nights while exploring Acadia and it was the perfect home base. Waking up to the bay every morning was unforgettable. The cottage had everything we needed and then some."
"My wife and I came here for our anniversary and it exceeded every expectation. The garden, the quiet, the way the light hits the water at sunset — we didn't want to leave. Already planning our return."
"We brought our two kids and the family suite was perfect. Plenty of space, the kitchen saved us on meals, and the kids spent hours at the water's edge. This is what a real Maine vacation feels like."
We built this cottage the way we'd want to stay.
Lazy Acres Cottage started as a simple idea: there had to be a better way to experience the Maine coast than squeezing into a cramped hotel room or driving through town just to find a place to sleep.
We bought this property because of the water — the way the bay catches light at dawn, the rhythm of the tides, the silence that comes with being a little bit off the main road. We renovated every room with care, choosing materials that age well and furniture that invites you to stay awhile.
Today, we welcome guests who appreciate the difference a thoughtful space makes. Whether you're here for a long weekend or a full week, we want you to leave feeling like you actually got away — not just changed zip codes.
