Waves & Wilderness is proud to present our extraordinary retreat nestled on Main Street in Mount Desert, just moments from the renowned Acadia National Park.
This meticulously restored 1856 house, once the town's general store and butcher shop, harmoniously blends historic allure with modern comforts, ensuring an unforgettable stay.
**Game & Theater Rooms**
Engaging Game Room: The converted old general store and butcher shop now offers an engaging game room, preserving historical elements while providing entertainment for all.
The game room has a full-size air hockey table to challenge a friend or family member, as well as a 9’ shuffleboard. Completing the game room is a comfortable corner sectional, a 70” smart TV, and an ample amount of board games and puzzles.
The theater room is an immersive experience in the old general store section of the house. Kick back on one of six real theater recliners as you watch your favorite movie on the big screen. Plus, enjoy a complimentary sample of movie candy to snack on during your favorite films.
**Outdoor Sanctuary**
The backyard backs up to the inlet of the Somes Sound. Just outside is the dam where the fish are jumping the ladder to get upstream
You can lounge on a daybed over the stream, or kick your feet up on one of the many outdoor seating areas
A guest favorite, soak in our 7-person hot tub under the stars as you listen to the flow of the stream just 10 yards away
Roast some smores over the firepit and share stories with your group
Finally, cook using the propane BBQ grill or boil some lobsters in the propane-fueled lobster pot and enjoy the meal outside at the table

Two (2) Luxurious King Suites: Indulge in spaciousness and comfort with lavish king-sized beds, exquisite furnishings, and private en-suite bathrooms for a pampering experience. Both king bedrooms have brand-new mattresses, and 50” smart TVs
Inviting Queen Bedroom: Stylishly appointed on the main floor with a comfortable queen-sized bed, and 50” smart TV, this bedroom offers elegance and tranquility.

A full-size washer and dryer are available should you need to run a load of laundry during your stay
*Please note: This house was built in 1856, and although professionally cleaned in between each stay, the house has characteristics such as imperfect paint, steep stairs, and the occasional uneven floor. We hope this is an attraction, not a deterrent.
Explore the wonders of Acadia National Park, with nearby destinations such as Jordan Pond, Cadillac Mountain, and Somes Sound offering breathtaking natural beauty and recreational activities.
Whether exploring Acadia's landscapes, immersing in the historical ambiance, or enjoying the game room's entertainment, our 1856 village house is an ideal retreat for adventurers, history enthusiasts, and families seeking an extraordinary escape.
Book your stay now and create cherished memories in this extraordinary historic gem!
