Known as the ‘Gateway to Acadia,’ Trenton, Lamoine, Prospect Harbor and other mainland communities enjoy proximity to Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park, with access to the expansive Union River Bay and Mt. Desert Narrows. Appreciated for being away from the crowds, this area is home to several local lobster pounds and close to Ellsworth dining. Many homes in this area enjoy spectacular views of Mt. Desert’s peaks, and swimming is generally warmer in the bay waters. Lamoine’s public sandy beach, Trenton Community Trails, Wild Acadia Fun Park, and the Stanwood Bird Sanctuary are just a few of its many attractions!
This was the nicest place we have ever stayed. Everything about it was perfection: the view, the decor, the amenities, kitchen supplies, extra pillows on the bed, extra blankets in the house, in addition to being spotlessly clean. We would love to stay here every year.
We stayed at Island Sky the last week of August 2024 and had a wonderful time. The location is perfect – quiet, private, views from the porch are ideal, less than 15 minutes from Acadia entrance. There are some quirks, description is accurate and honest. Definitely would rent again.
My spouse and I stayed at that beautifully renovated cottage.
Everything was near perfect
If you want a quiet place near bar Harbor and Acadia park, that might be a place for you.

My wife and I stayed here the first week of Oct 2021. Never in my life did I think I would love a place outside of the south but this is it. I could truly live at Island Sky. Not all is perfect but quite close. The only bad parts are the bedroom is upstairs and is an A frame room. You have to bend over to get into the bed if you are over 5’7. The bathroom is also a bit tight so “big people” such as my wife and I have some difficulties. All that said, thank you to the owners of Island Sky and I would go back in a heartbeat regardless of my difficulties I mentioned. I love this place!!!
My husband and I loved this cozy cottage. Sunrise and moonrise are epic, the tides make the landscape change constantly, a pleasure to watch, we’ll miss it!
