Bass Harbor, famed for its iconic lighthouse and dramatic rocky shorelines, is a gateway to some of Maine’s most stunning natural landmarks. Just a short drive from the Ferry Lodging House, you’ll find the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, a striking symbol perched precariously above towering granite cliffs. The area’s unique geography, carved by glaciers and battered by Atlantic storms, presents a landscape of dense forests, rugged coves, and granite peaks that draw hikers, kayakers, and photographers alike.
What sets the Ferry Lodging House apart is its ideal location that combines tranquility with proximity to outdoor adventure. After a day wandering the Carriage Roads or kayaking tranquil bays, guests appreciate returning to a cozy, well-equipped home offering modern comforts, making longer stays both practical and inviting. The house’s spacious layout with four bedrooms makes it perfect for families or groups of friends wanting to experience a blend of coastal charm and wilderness exploration.

This rental is both a refuge and a launchpad, allowing guests to fully engage with the region's offerings—from wildlife spotting (look for bald eagles and harbor seals) to enjoying fresh seafood at local eateries. The Ferry Lodging House embodies the spirit of Maine’s outdoor culture by blending comfort with accessibility, ensuring each day ends with a quiet sunset viewed from a restful retreat.
