About this property

Unique Marina Side Condo With Great Views And Fun Atmosphere!

This nautically inspired 2-Br. Condo sleeps 4 and is on the dock level. The Bow unit offers a king-sized bed in the master and 2-twin beds in the spare room. It features full size kitchen appliances and a lovely seating area and gas grill for those evenings outside. There are 2 Full bathrooms with double size walk-in showers. And a pull out couch in case you need more room. This adorable unit is within walking distance to all area shops and the fabulous restaurants here in SWH, a coffee shop and a full restaurant/bar right here on site. We are in the heart of Acadia National Park. Features of the park such as Bass Harbor Head Light and Echo lake are just minutes away. Take a hike up Beech Cliffs or Acadia Mnt. for panoramic views of the island. Spend an evening exploring Bar Harbor and all of its shops and hustle and bustle. Make sure to try a whale watch tour out of Bar Harbor or take a sunset cruise upon a Friendship sloop right from your doorstep!

This little slice of heaven has something for everyone! This unit is one of two available at this location, should you need more space for family or friends please inquire as to availability. Both are similarly appointed and have been enjoyed by many extended family or friends groups!

We are a working waterfront here so expect early mornings, we not only see the sun first here on the Northeast coast, but the lobstermen and the salmon farmers head out super early! Most guest find the hubbub exciting and super interesting but it may not suit everyone's vision of vacation time.

We also offer a bit of adaptive gear should those considerations be of interest to our guests. Please send any questions along, always happy to accommodate any guest needs that we can.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Awesome place!

Awesome place, right on the marina! You can walk to restaurants and their little downtown area, about 1/4 mile walk. It was very clean and the beds were very comfortable! Great place to stay, since it was only about 20 min. from Bar Harbor. Will definitely recommend this place to our friends.

Perfect location for exploring Acadia!

We had a wonderful visit in the Bow unit! Very comfortable for my husband and I and our two young children (3 and 1). Great location as a home base for visiting Acadia and Southwest Harbor is a great little town. We did have some hot water issues the first few days but Christie the owner and Jane the manager were very responsive and worked to get the problem fixed quickly! The unit has everything you need for meals at home and plenty of space. We would stay again! Thank you!

A quiet stay by the water

This apartment at the marina was better than I expected! The pictures don’t do it justice! This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom unit had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, the showers never ran out of hot water, and the kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with necessities. The views of the harbor right out the windows were beautiful. The area was quiet and relaxing. This was a perfect stay away from the busy tourist area of Bar Harbor, but within quick driving distance to everything on Mount Desert Island. The owner was friendly and responsive to our needs. I highly recommend!

Southwest Harbor Stay

We had a great time staying in the Marina side Bow condo. It had plenty of space for three adults. My father, who is 87, appreciated the peacefulness of the location. He could sit outside and watch the workings of the marina. It was relatively close to Bar Harbor and Acadia where we spent most of our time. Christie made a book that gave many recommendations which was very helpful. When I reached out to her, she was super responsive as well. I would highly recommend this condo if you want to be close to Bar Harbor but want a peaceful place to relax at night. We loved it!

More than we expected.

We stayed in the “bow” unit and could not have been happier w/ our accommodations. Beautiful views of the inlet and sunrises. The condo is comfy cozy and well appointed. I lost count of the number of times that one of us commented on how pleased they were w/ the property and the close proximity to town, as in WALKING distance. Kudos to Christie, the owner.

Special Place

We’re so glad we stayed at your condo. It was so peaceful and comfortable. It was very convenient to Acadia National Park and much more quiet than the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor, which was not far but more touristy.

Great spot. Very quiet and private

We had a wonderful three nights here. Loved the area as it was much less hustle / bustle than Bar Harbor. It was still easy enough to get to Acadia and the surrounding area. The condo itself was a nice layout, and was nicely equipped. Very happy with our choice. It is always great to get some of the basics - paper towels, foil, plastic bags, some spices, etc. in the kitchen without having to worry about shopping for them.

Southwest Harbor Two Bedroom Unit

The overall experience was extremely pleasant. The unit was immaculate and well stocked. Christie, our host, was very accommodating. The location on the marina dock was very peaceful. It’s a short ride to the park and Bar Harbor. My only suggestion is that the description of the unit should make clear that the washer/dryer isn’t in the unit. However, Christie was willing to swap our dirty towels for clean ones daily.

Spacious and spotless

You can’t be much closer to the harbor than the Bow apartment at the Cannery. It sits right on the wharf, but still offers privacy. We enjoyed watching the ebb and flow of the tide and the seabirds working the shoreline. Staying in Southwest Harbor is quiet and convenient for everything on the quiet side of MDI. The unit is large and comfortable and was spotless. An air source heat pump was great for cooling and heating. Kitchen was stocked with essentials, and the pancake mix and real Maine maple syrup was a nice touch!

Perfect!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Southwest Maine. Away from the business of Bar Harbor, but the same beauty and easy access to the park. The marina side condo was very nice. My best sunrise picture came from this site. We'd stay again in a minute!

About the host

Hosted by Christie Dysart

Host profile image
Lifetime Mainah'! Been enjoying SWH since 1988 when my husband and I first met. We've spent our summers here ever since, can't imagine any better place to be!

Why they chose this property

Our family has been involved with this community through recreation early on and now multiple businesses here. We love the friendly local people and that we can just pop in and out of BH should we want a bit more excitement.

What makes this property unique

We are located right on site of a full service marina. There's great excitement here in the summer beginning with the colorful local fishermen right through to the amazing Luxury yachts and their crews. Always interesting views and people watching.
