My wife and I stayed for 3 weeks at Firefly Meadow this August and our teenage nephew stayed with us for part of the time. The house worked out great and is well appointed throughout. Although it is close to Seawall Road we heard no road noise at all. There was plenty of room for us to spread out and each find our own "space". My wife especially liked the screened in bright and airy porch room for morning yoga and writing. My nephew liked being able to go upstairs to his large room overlooking the meadow and "chill" out after a long hike. When eating in we mostly lit a fire and ate dinner by either the fireplace in the living room or the fire pit outside. The master bedroom on the first floor was very roomy with a walk out onto the screened in porch.

You do get a little bit of a water view from the house looking out across the meadow and it is only a 4 minute walk down Meadow Lane to the water's edge (beach and picnic table) where you can look out towards the Cranberry Islands.

The bathrooms and kitchen were in great shape with everything you will need. We did have a charcoal grill although it would have been easier if there was a gas grill. The attached garage was convenient for storing my bicycle. We have been coming up to Southwest Harbor for about 5 years and like the location of Firefly although it's not an inexpensive house to rent.

Whitney and Dan (the owners) live across Meadow Lane and were very responsive to any requests. And as locals they also know a lot about the area.

So overall I would recommend Firefly. Thanks Dan and Whitney!
