Path to the cottage is not good for anyone that is disabled in anyway. A motion light would be a great addition as we came back after dark most nights. I did not realize it was on a busy road, had the image that it was on the water through the trees.

Our stay was great. The cabin was clean and the host was very responsive

We enjoyed our stay. Location was great! The home was clean and well equipped! It is an older home but kept up well!

Though Chickadee's Nest isn't a bad property overall, this stay needs quite a few updates. One of the living room chairs has a broken leg, one of the toilet seats upstairs is completely sliced, the dryer is at an angle that makes the whole machine rumble and screech terribly, and the king bed upstairs has an unstable bed frame. (My husband tried to sit on the end of the bed to put his shoes on, and the slat and the mattress at the bottom fell through to the floor). We also had to limit the dryer load to 3-4 pieces of clothing because it was so unstable. The bathrooms are pretty small, and because the showers are upstairs, I would highlight that this isn't a handicap/ limited mobility accessible residence. My family and I were in town for the primary purpose of exploring Bar Harbor/ Acadia NP, so almost all of our excursions were 20 minutes away driving time (Cadillac Mountain, Park Loop Rd, Bar Harbor, etc.) Just some things to note if you are traveling with older family members or children who might not be entertained by hours of driving daily.
