Great, quiet spot near SW Harbor Center
The cabin is clean and perfect for an active family of 5. The “grass” is moss and the grounds are so pretty. You can hike Acadia right off property! I always do laundry on vacation and the stacked appliances were great!

Quiet side is the best side
We loved our stay at Rob’s cabin. Perfect setup for our family of 5. Loft was the perfect “bedroom” for the kids. Walking to Acadia’s trails without having to get in the car was fantastic for our first day. Mattresses were comfy and the cabin was adequately stocked with supplies, cookware, and linens. Our only suggestions for future guests would be some glass ware for drinks and board games to play on rainy days or evenings. We love visiting MDI and this cabin is a great home base to experience all the island has to offer while mostly avoiding the hustle bustle of Bar Harbor. Would definitely come back!

A Perfect Cabin in Acadia
We loved everything about this cabin and location! The cabin and property were meticulously clean, comfortable, and well stocked. The owners were friendly and gave us some great tips on visiting Bar Harbor and nearby trails. We made many great memories here like coming "home" from hiking and cooking out on the grill and fire pit while enjoying the peace and quite of the property, morning coffee on the porch listing to the birds and watching the deer. and star gazing at night. While planning this trip I showed my daughters several properties and they chose this cabin hands down (and they never agree on anything). I'm so glad they did. They really enjoyed their bedroom in the loft and being able to explore the woods and trails nearby on their own. We will absolutely be back to stay here on our next visit to Maine. Thank you!

About the host

Host profile image
We live on the property about 300 feet from the cabin. We built the cabin from a log kit, started in 2012 and finished in June 2013 for the rental season.

Why they chose this property

This cabin was finished this year, 2013. It measures 20' x 30 and features a separate bedroom, a sleeping loft, a separate bathroom, a full size kitchen and a screened in deck. It is nestled in a wooded area at the base of Mansel Mountain on the ‘Quiet Side’ of the Island, within 500 feet from the owners residence, cabin #1 and the nearest neighbor and only 3 miles to the center of town. There is private access to hiking and bicycling trails using your own entrance to Acadia National Park, right outside your front door. Within a short driving distance there are swimming, deep sea and fresh water fishing, canoeing, kayaking and boat rentals. There are also other recreations such as golf, tennis, horseback riding, Whale Watching cruises, glider rides, Park guided tours, bird watching, lighthouse tours and galleries within a short driving distance.
