Excellent location on the quiet side of the island. Host had many suggestions for the area that made our stay simple to plan. Stairs to bedrooms are very steep, may be difficult for those with mobility restrictions to manage. Overall a great place to stay.

This beautiful property was the perfect place for my family's Acadia vacation. Close enough for everything we wanted to do, but away from the crowds and traffic. We appreciated the beautiful home, the proximity to the water, the deer and wild turkeys that we could see around the property. Anne was extremely responsive.

A wonderful clean and cozy place for us to stay after a long day of hiking! We were able to enjoy a wonderful meal because of the gas grill that is provided and the local markets that we were able to shop. The sunrises from the beach were beautiful and I would highly recommend this place for small families and couples wanting to get away. Anne was a very helpful hostess and provided us with lots of information about hiking. We found her guide book in the home to be extremely helpful and appreciated all the detail. We hope to come back next year!

Rental was very clean and well stocked. The host had great communication and offered many excellent recommendations about what to do on the island. The setting of the rental was beautiful with many chances to observe birds and deer. We were able to walk down the lane to the water and use the beach area too. I wasn’t sure if we would like to be so far from the main part of Acadia National Park but since we are not the touristy types I have no regrets about staying on the quiet side of Mt. Desert Island.

Great Place for a Getaway

We had a great July 4th holiday weekend in Acadia. This was the perfect place to stay in a quiet wooded area and close to everything the island has to offer. The Southwest Harbor fireworks were a highlight of the trip!

Lovely house and lovely location!

We loved staying at this cottage! It was conveniently located to many great hiking spots and felt secluded enough out in the woods. Just a short walk from a very nice secluded rocky beach as well. I would highly recommend this rental for anyone looking for a great retreat out to Acadia!
