Private access to beach, ocean view and minutes from Acadia National Park

We had a wonderful, relaxing, lobster filled week, and look forward to coming back next summer. The house was even more spacious than expected, and the sun porch was a favorite “happy hour” spot for us each evening after days filled with hiking, boating, and exploring MDI. The house is fully stocked, comfortable and a short walk from a great little beach.

My husband and I recently spent 2 weeks at Firefly. We loved the house and it's location outside of town but within a 5 minute walk to the beach. The house has lots of living space and a large master bedroom which adjoins the sun porch. The property is dog friendly so we were able to bring our dog which was a plus. We hiked on the beautiful trails of Mount Desert every day, and we ate seafood every night which we bought at local lobster pounds or at Sawyers Market in Southwest Harbor which has an excellent fish counter. Whitney and Dan (the owners) provided us with lots of ideas for hikes,restaurants, and other vacation activities, and they were very prompt in answering any questions we had during our stay. We would definitely come back.

Maine is my families favorite vacation destination. Staying in this house in SW Harbour was one of the best decisions I made. First time using home-away and will certainly go this way again. The privacy it affords in a beautiful home is wonderful. Whitney and Dan have a lovely beautifully decorated home. Loved the master bedroom and looking out glass doors to nature. It was comfortable and I slept well. My children loved the beach and gathering sea glass as well as other treasures. The food, which was my husbands reason for being there, was great as usual. We are sorry we only scheduled 4 days as we could have stayed 2 weeks. Hope to be back again for longer. Thank you Whitney

My husband and I stayed at this lovely home while visiting Acadia National Park for the first time with our senior parents. This house felt like a real home with all the quaintness and comfort. House was clean and well equipped throughout. We were especially impressed with comfortable mattresses and clean bedding and lots of towels. Thank you! Location was convenient to our daily visits to the park. I appreciated recommendations for local restaurants from our host. Don't miss lobsters at Thurston's. It was our favorite! I highly recommend firefly!

This house was perfect for us - a master bedroom with a king bed on the ground floor, with bath,and another upstairs. The ground floor bedroom enjoys a glassed sunroom, while upstairs we enjoyed a view over the meadow of the sea beyond. An easy walk to the beach.

The house had everything we needed and wanted, just outside the village. Well situated to explore the Park.

Thanks Whitney and Dan!!
