Forest Views | Private Hot Tub | Alder Treehouse

Set high among the trees, The Alder is a small, quiet treehouse built for two. Styled like a classic Maine camp with modern comfort and clean design, it has a single sleeping space and three decks that step gently into the canopy — one holding a private hot tub set back among the trees. A smokeless fire pit and the quiet of the forest are just outside. Elevated and tucked away, yet close to Ellsworth, Acadia National Park, and the surrounding Downeast.
