We had an amazing stay!

The cottage was very charming and met our family’s needs. Hosts communicated well. We had everything we needed at the property. The location turned out to be great even though it is several miles from Bar Harbor. Bar Harbor is still easy to get to, yet you save on lodging and avoid the constant crowds. Southwest Harbor is just around the corner from the property and has good dining options and a good grocery store. Some great hikes are also easily accessible from very near the property.

A beautiful, well-appointed home in a perfect location on the 'quiet side' of mt desert island. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. The house had so many helpful amenities (crock pot, beach toys, iron, hair dryer, and many more), and was so clean. The cherry on top was the beach access - we spent an afternoon by the water as the kids splashed and explored the rocky shore and we didn't see another soul, despite it being right before the busy fourth of July weekend. It felt like our own private beach! We had a wonderful stay and hope to be back!
