Excellent place to relax and enjoy the laid back area of the Island. We really enjoyed our stay. The blueberry cottage was the perfect base camp

Blueberry Cottage was a great little place to come home to at the end of a long day of hiking and exploring. It had everything we needed to prepare breakfast in the morning. Our boys loved seeing all of the deer on and around the property. It was very clean and warm.

We had a great first trip to Maine. The cottage was very clean and was stocked with many things like extra blankets, cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, games, and fans for the summer. We were able to use the oven to cook dinner and store leftovers in the fridge. The brochures and maps in the binder were helpful for planning our activities. We had a toddler and the size of the cottage was cozy and perfect for us three.

We had everything we needed, and the bed was comfortable. Nice out of the way place away from crowds and traffic. Nice to see the deer and wake up to the rooster. Well equipped kitchen and the gas grill was a handy feature, although a lighter stick would have been helpful. Would stay there again.

We had a fantastic week at Blueberry Cottage. The cottage is small, but it had everything we needed. The location is perfect for us, because we love being on the quiet side of the island. Very close to Bass Harbor Lighthouse and the Wonderland and Ship Harbor trails, which are nice easy trails for our young family. Also a short drive to downtown Southwest Harbor and Echo Lake, which we visited often. If I have to nitpick, the grill could be in a little better shape, but we absolutely loved the backyard and the fire pit (there was plenty of firewood and kindling at the cottage). We also got a kick out of the DVD collection, which my 5-year old had never seen before! Anyone with young kids should note that there isn’t much separation between the second bedroom and the living room, but it wasn’t a big problem for us. Overall, Blueberry Cottage met our needs and then some, and we would definitely recommend it to others.

Amazing from start to finish! Beautiful cottage with all the Maine beauty one could hope for. Attentive owners and the private beach access is amazing. Can’t wait to book again!!!

Our experience was far better than we expected. This was our first time using VRBO. The owner thought of everything we needed it was very unexpected so we over packed only to find out we didn’t need half of what we brought. Loved how it’s back off the road and peaceful yet close to places we wanted to go.

The cottage is cozy and well decorated. It was just what we had hoped for. It came equipped with everything we needed and more. The backyard was beautiful and we say deer everyday. One doe had twin fawns. We didn’t get to use the fire pit but next year I will ask where to get the kindling as I know sometimes you are not suppose to bring wood with you. Also we’d bring matches but it just didn’t work out this time around. We certainly hope the accept our reservation next summer. Blueberry cottage was perfect for us. Ann Tillotson

Our family of four stayed at blueberry cottage, and can’t say enough good things about it! It was incredibly clean, and well appointed with thoughtful touches throughout. The location was quiet, and only about 30 minutes from Bar Harbor. If we ever return to Maine, we will certainly stay at blueberry cottage again!

I loved the location - peaceful with deer in the morning and evening! The cottage was absolutely spotless. It is just as the pictures show! I have family in the area and it was wonderful to have room for them to visit. I got home and then booked another stay in the fall! I will definitely be back next year too!

Cottage was spacious for the 2 of us Lighting could have been better near the kitchen table Bed was very comfortable shower was great Kitchen was well appointed with staples provided The only negative was that the fry pan and the toaster oven pan were greasy They need a better method of determining what has been used so that they can check for cleanliness No dish washer to sanitize

My husband and I enjoyed the Blueberry cabin with the access across the street down a path to the ocean to catch some amazing sunrise photos! The cabin was well equipped with laundry soap, full kitchen with coffee and tea along with a comfortable bed and TV streaming. Unfortunately all the restaurants and lobster shacks were closed in the area as we booked November1-4 and we weren’t aware how seasonal everything was. We were able to find lobster in Bar Harbor, tho so no loss! Nice vacation no and great place to stay if you’re looking for something outside of the busy Bar Harbor area. Great hiking and loved watching all the deer every morning and evening in the yard.

The home is cozy and comfortable and the hosts have thought of everything you could need, while maintaining an adorable old-fashioned homey vibe. Also, it is spotlessly clean. The location is excellent for exploring the area and very close to the charming downtown Southwest Harbor. The neighborhood is VERY quiet and the property is a short walk/drive to the shore. Checkin was effortless. Wi-fi is not great, I assume because of the location, but cell service was good. We slept like logs on the comfortable beds. The check-out "chore list" was minimal (thank you, hosts!) and limited to the usual strip-the-beds, start-the-laundry type things.

My husband and I LOVED our stay at Blueberry Cottage. We referred to it as Grandma's house because everything was perfect there. It was impeccably clean, it had everything that we could have wanted, and we were greeted daily by the local deer. It was charming, warm, and clearly a beloved property. We highly recommend this home for any individual, couple or small family looking for a home away from home.

Adorable cottage in a picturesque seaside setting. Just outside Southwest Harbor where ocean views and hiking trails are minutes away. The perfect setting to enjoy the spectacular fall foliage that Maine is known for!

This property is quaint. It is comfortable and the neighborhood is quiet. Had several deer around the cottage eating the apples, etc. It was a nice base for a few days while we visited the Acadia National Park. I would stay again

We were taking our first trip to the northeast on somewhat of a budget - and this property overdelivered. We enjoyed the location, which was a short distance from the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse and about 30 minutes to Bar Harbor (a beautiful 30 minute drive!). The cottage was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need and everything was perfectly clean. My wife and I will 100% stay here again if we ever have the opportunity to visit Maine again.

This cozy little house starts strong and just gets better. The kitchen is well equipped with a good selection of pots and pans and utensils. You finally get used to seeing four or five deer in the backyard and BOOM, it's seven or eight turkeys. And THEN the deer again. Smoke alarm doesn't like shower steam, but that's easily taken care of- just open the windows and let in that Fresh Maine Air. Friendly hosts, a great bargain on Mt Desert.

Great Stay in Seawall
This charming cottage was a wonderful home base for our exploration of Acadia. We enjoyed being on the quieter side of things and found Southwest Harbor wonderful with great shops and food. The cottage was clean and enjoyable. It was great seeing deer daily and walking to the ocean from the house. We enjoyed our stay at the Blueberry Cottage and would recommend.

We originally stayed here as a cheaper alternative to staying inside Bar Harbor, what we discovered is that this is were we wanted to be all along. Its back in a small dead end road, its very quiet and even though there are neighbors its fairly private. The area of Seawall and Southwest Harbor has several small shops and restaurants that are within a 10 minute drive.
The house itself is small with a somwhat large property out back, seems like it might have an acre out back that runs into woods. We saw deer in the field in the mornings. Its very clean and tidy, the large bed was comfy and our daughter slept well on the smaller bed in the living area. The wifi was pretty slow but usable, phone service on the entire island is hit and miss.
The walkway to the beach is across the road. Take the lane directly across from the one you pulled in on, at the VERY end is house and right before the woods end is a path in the woods over to the beach. Its a very nice little path and the beach is secluded, you will probably be the only people out on it. The walk might be 10 minutes at the most, its worth a look!
All in all this is a perfect stay for a small family or couples and i would definitely look at coming back and staying here again.

Very nice
The cabin was perfect for 3 adults. The kitchen was well-stocked. Overall, the accommodations exceeded our expectations. The only downside was that it was a bit of a drive to meet friends in Bar Harbor. But it was very close to Thurston's Lobster Pound, which was excellent.
