Charming cottage with beautiful water views. Extremely clean, well maintained and equipped. We enjoyed the beach views with coffee in the morning and fires at sun down. Lots of great decks for outdoor enjoyment. Absolutely wonderful!

Beautiful setting and property! 30 mins to Bar Harbor and Acadia NP. House was very nicely furnished and clean with everything we needed to season, cook, clean and just enjoy the location! West facing for sunsets over the water. Bird watching was good. Master bed was very comfy. 2 fire stoves were comfy as well. Decks! I just can’t say enough nice things. Don’t hesitate. Just book it and enjoy. We sure did. Thanks so much!

The bayside cottage was all we hoped it would be!! So quiet and peaceful. Loved that the cottage was near the water and far from the road. Gorgeous sunsets and views!! I loved the kitchen and found it extra Well appointed. I was able to bake to my heart’s content! Evening we enjoyed grilling and eating by the water. Tons of room to spread out. Living room and sunroom were fabulous!

My husband and I stayed in this lovely cottage while our daughter was away for the week at camp. This was a perfect location to get in some work during the day and explore the area in the afternoon and evening - All the hikes we wanted to try and some great restaurants were no more than 15-20 minutes away. It would have been a great location if our daughter was with us too as the shoreline offered a lot for a child to explore.

Pros: Incredible sunset views of the bay Very clean Well stocked kitchen A/C in both bedrooms (listing is not accurate) Cons: The well water for the cottage is salty and undrinkable. Owners should state this in listing and contract, and not just admit that it's a problem in the instructions located on the property. At a minimum leave a gallon of drinking water until renters can get to the store The beds in twin room are only suitable for small children. The matresses are worn out and the ancient bed springs are not a typical modern box spring.They are extremely uncomfortable for an adult. We wanted to use one of the twin beds as my spouse has restless leg syndrome, and ended up having to put the mattress on the floor in the living room. There is an extensive construction project at the property that shares the driveway. This wasnt disclosed to us until 2 months before our arrival, and project was clearly started way before then. No chance at that point to find another place for 4th of July week. Fortunately the neighbors were very considerate about letting us know when the driveway way going to be blocked for deliveries of materials.

Our family had the best week staying at Doug and Kim's house. Our children loved playing outside, picking wildflowers, and walking along the shore. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets on the deck and spent as much time as possible in the sunroom. It was only a short drive to Acadia National Park, the grocery store, and several great spots for lobster. We hope to visit again!

What a beautiful cottage on the water. As others have stated, cottage is well stocked and clean. The sunroom is amazing, as well as water front views and small beach area. We found ourselves spending our evenings there to cook an easy dinner after exploring Acadia rather than going out to eat. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was very clean and comfortable, set back from the road, and was focused on the tides, breezes and sunsets to the west. An easy drive to any of the Mount Desert harbors but out of the fray, beautiful and quiet. We hope to return in the seasons to come. Thank you Kim and Doug
