What a wonderful little cottage. Beautifully furnished and very neat and clean. Truly the "quietside". Great outdoor furniture on the deck to sit and watch the boats and ocean. Screened in porch was wonderful to have breakfast and lunch. Short walk through the woods to Thurston's Lobster Pond for great lobster stew. My 9 and 12 year old kids could have spent the entire vacation right on Back Beach exploring the wonderful rocky coast, tidal pools and kayaking. Lots of sand dollars, sea urchins, and even a starfish or two :) Only 10 minutes away from quaint Southwest Harbor and 25 minutes to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The Bradford's were very accomodating and even mailed the clothes my husband left behind...and they were clean :) The view is so spectacular that it's hard to capture in just a photo. Would return again.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, adventure seekers, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children.
