Why the Owner Chose Southwest Harbor
Summer in Maine! Whatever you have heard is true. We discoverd Mt. Desert Island, Acadia National Park and Southwest Harbor in the 1970's and every summer has been wonderful. So many things to do. Not enough time, so we return year after year.

Very pleasant summer stay

Our first trip to Maine and the Bar Harbor area was enhanced by our stay in this modern cottage along with the hospitality shown by the owners Ed and Martie. The cottage was very comfortable and the setting was outstanding with beautiful sunrises over the water of Somes sound. There's plenty to do in the quaint Southwest Harbor area as well as the entire Acadia area. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would return again.

Beautiful Cottage in an Exceptional Setting

We had a wonderful time during our stay in this beautiful cottage. It had every thing we needed for a great stay- comfortable beds, modern bathrooms and beautiful water views from the open living area and deck. The cottage was beautifully furnished with a nice mix antiques and northwoods and nautical styles. Ed and Marty were friendly and accomodating but gave us complete privacy. We particulary enjoyed beachcombing just a few steps from or door and watching the nesting ospreys and seals swimming in the harbor just off the cottage's beach. It was especially nice to be so close to the working harbor and to be within walking distance of town. We hope to come and stay again some day.

Lovely Fall Vacation

The property was perfect for our fall vacation. The lovely, quiet, but convenient location was ideal for us. The house was great - open floor plan, lots of windows with views of the water, nicely designed and furnished, etc, etc. We found Southwest Harbor a delightful little village with good restaurants, interesting lobster/fishery wharfs, and proximity to so many island trails and vistas. We hope to return!
