My sisters and I fell in love with this little cottage near the water. Victoria had it cleaned and organized meticulously and left fresh, very aromatic flowers in the kitchen and bathroom. She even had a sweet welcome message on the chalkboard in sight when you first walk in. The beds/linens and towels were cozy, and bathroom very spacious. The decor was beautiful. The house is located just a half block from the shore of Bass Harbor, with a great seafood restaurant/bar right there and boat tour right off the nearby wharf (walking distance). We saw many deer on the property and enjoyed the quiet of this side of Mt. Desert Island. Do note this house has stairs to the bedrooms and no air conditioning (but powerful fans), in case you´re traveling during warmer months, and the only bathroom is upstairs. Grocery stores, gas, and ice cream/food stand are located nearby. PERFECT place to stay if you want peace away from the bustle of Bar Harbor. The hosts are friendly and communicative; they live right next door.

In short, this cottage is nothing less than perfect. It is incredibly cozy and situated in a peaceful little town. Everything about it was comfortable and relaxing. It was impeccably clean. It truly was one of the highlights of my vacation. Additionally, the hosts are wonderful. They were incredibly responsive to questions and very friendly. Thanks to their advice, I was able to catch a meteor shower by the seaside. I can't wait until I have the chance to visit again!

We enjoyed our stay! Great location in a quiet neighborhood yet close enough to drive to the park daily (30 min) and a shorter drive to Southwest Harbor where there were several dining options. The cottage was well equipped and had lots of space to hang out which was great on the one rainy day we had. We loved the hiking guide our hosts left ! So helpful as we navigated Acadia for the first time.

We spent 6 nights at the Aisling Cottage exploring MDI and Acadia National Park. The Cottage was perfect for our family of 5. The property was very clean and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The place is located in a very quiet area with virtually no traffic. We enjoyed being on the quiet side of the Island and actually found many fun things to do away from the busy Bar Harbor crowds. I would certainly recommend the Aisling Cottage without reservation!

Our family had a great time at Aisling Cottage for a week in July to escape the Texas heat. Victoria and David were terrific hosts that brought fresh flowers on arrival and even helped us procure and cook lobsters to make our own lobster rolls (my wife said they were her favorite of the trip - my secret ingredient… lots of butter). Would definitely book again. So glad we chose a comfortable place on the quiet side of the island that’s close to some of Acadia NP’s best attractions but away from the touristy bustle of Bar Harbor.

This was a wonderful, quaint property to spend a week at! We had a one year old with us so it was important that we be able to enjoy spending most our time at the cottage. I loved that I was able to see Bass Harbor from the kitchen while making dinner every night. The cottage had so much character and was very cozy while also being uncluttered and spotless when we arrived. We definitely hope to return!

We really enjoyed our time at Aisling Cottage, the location was a really good for our family. We have a few runners that enjoyed the runs down to Bass Harbor Lighthouse or the Seawall (both within 1-2 miles). Also, with our kids they really liked the chance to go down to the harbor about 150 ft from the house to see what they could find. Thanks for a great stay!
