Loved it.

Loved the view!! Clean and neat. Property manager extremely responsive when I let him know a couple of items were missing. I really didn’t him to deliver them himself within a couple of hours. Walking distance to town. Only 1 bathroom for 3 bedrooms but if you can deal with that you will love it. Highly recommended.

Loved it!

This was our first time in Maine for vacation. We took a chance on this cottage and location and loved it! The cottage had everything our family of 5 needed. We kayaked during the day. Laid on the dock at night gazing at the stars. We walked to town for a few meals. The cottage was clean and updated. It was nice sitting on the deck watching the boats in the harbor. It was a short ride to Bar Harbor, Cadillac Mountain, Jordan's Pond and numerous other hiking trails. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful week in Southwest Harbor

The cottage is lovely and equipped with everything you could ask for. The location is easy walking distance to many restaurants and the bus stop for the #7 island explorer. Waking up every morning with a view of the harbor was he best way to start the day. Couldn’t have been happier with our choice.

Wonderful vacation rental in an awesome location!

This rental was superb in every way. It accommodated our family of 9 no problem. The location on the harbor was breathtaking and having kayaks and a canoe available was wonderful! We used them often to explore the harbor. It is located walking distance to great local eats! The owners are very accessible if anything is needed. I highly recommend this rental.

Amazing view - simply breathtaking every morning

This cottage was everything we hoped it would be. The 3 bedroom was bright and filled with light. The sliding door opened right on to the water and dock in the photo - Master bedroom had a large window overlooking the same view. Woke up to the amazing view each morning and simply enjoyed it drinking coffee in bed. SouthWest Harbor is a small quiet town where you can relax, and just 20 min drive to Bar Harbor where all the action is. This property even has kayaks and canoes to use if you feel like padding around the harbor - which we did in the evening when the water was calm. The beds all slept very nicely with thin down comforters for the perfect warmth. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a retreat with an amazing view.
