Overall, we had a perfect stay at the cottage. We were looking for a quiet stay near Acadia and got just that. The hosts were incredible; they even told us to check out the Northern Lights (didn’t even know we could!!) I loved the front porch; I could sit there every morning with coffee and a book. We would recommend this spot, and we’d come back.

Cozy spot in a great location in Bass Harbor! Will happily return next year.

This was our second time staying at Aisling Cottage. We just love it. It's a great, cozy cottage with everything you need but not overly cluttered. Very well located in terms of being on Mt Desert BUT on the more quiet side of the island. My favorite thing is that the kitchen window above the sink and the living room have a few of the harbor. Having a young child means vacations involve a lot of time at home in between activities so it's nice to stay somewhere where you're still feeling the picturesque Maine vibes while at home playing puzzles or doing dishes. :) We love this place.

My husband, daughter, and I had an absolutely wonderful stay here for 6 nights as first timers to the island. So cozy, warm, and inviting - we enjoyed quiet breakfasts in the eat-in kitchen, played games and read books in the living room, and lounged in the enclosed porch. The beds were so comfy that after long, adventurous, days in close by Acadia - we all slept deeply and soundly. A big thank you to Virginia and David - we will definitely be back!
