Enjoyed our stay at the little house in the woods. Views were spectacular! Location was fantastic. Only suggestion, it was cold and a heater in the bathroom would have been nice. Otherwise loved the place.
Huge windows. Beautiful views.

WONDERFUL!!

Our second time here. It is a lovely cottage with great location. After the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor this meticulous and quiet cottage is a perfect place to unwind with a plus of a fire pit with wood provided each day. Highly recommended !!!!

Perfect location

We absolutely loved our stay here. It was quiet, well- appointed and you can’t beat the location. We loved having the balance of feeling that you’re tucked away in the woods but able to walk anywhere to town was a pleasure. Highly recommend Southwest Harbor!

This property was such an Amazing find. Walking distance to town and yet it felt nestled deep in the woods. We saw so many animals in just a few short days - deer, turkey, and even a sweet skunk! This property is a wonderful basecamp for visiting Acadia and feels very removed from the chaos of other nearby places to stay. The night sky from this cottage is incredible. Be sure to visit the local restaurants and shops- everyone we met in Southwest Harbor was so welcoming. We will make this property our Go To for Acadia and the surrounding area every time we visit Maine.

About the host

Hosted by Vicki Beal

Host profile image
Doug Beal, Jr. a 5th generation, lived in Southwest Harbor his whole life. He and his wife, Vicki, owned a Marine Conctruction and Diving Business for 41 years. They decided to start a retirement business, so, they began building seasonal rental cottages. Doug completed 3 of them before he passed away in the summer 2015 ( Homeaway #3498723 and #3498716 ). Vicki is carrying on the business that she and Doug started, together.
The three cottages can house 19 happy vacationers, (for a group looking to vacation, together), or rent one for a family. Woodland Cottages I, II and III, all have great holiday appeal ~
