Beautiful spot, very private with water view btwn the pines. Note that the bed is a double and could use a new mattress.

This was exactly the place I needed and 100% would stay here again if the opportunity presented itself. The view/location was stunning and peaceful, the cabin was comfy, and I had the best sleep I've had in probably years! The addition of puzzles and games was great for the one rainy day we stayed inside. I do want to note that a side effect of staying in a cozy, secluded cabin is that you WILL encounter spiders. Can mostly ignore them, but I do recommend shaking out your sheets before getting into bed each night, just like camping. Would not impact my decision to come back, or to recommend this place, more of just a heads-up for anyone so they're not surprised.

Quintessential Maine!

Seal Rock was a wonderful place to stay during our Maine vacation. The views of the water, the convenient location to Acadia National Park, and the cabin itself made it an unforgettable experience. We would love to stay here again on another trip to MDI!

Great small cottage tucked in the woods. Was quite with only one house close. Within 30 minutes of most of the island. Clean house, the master bed was comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. Wonderful experience all around.

We were ecstatic when we got to Seal Rock! The place looked amazing and was great for our family of four. We loved the view from all the windows and had some great sunsets. There were so many more amenities than I anticipated. Even though we didn't use any of it, it was nice to see there was coffee & filters, paper goods like plastic baggies, napkins, paper towels and Tupperware, spices and cooking oils. It was a unique touch to have binoculars, games and books there along with the many brochures, maps and pamphlets. My 8 year old read one of the books in 2 days! I definitely will be booking this place when we come back. It's on the quiet side of MDI but it doesn't take more than 30 minutes to get to most of the main spots. We are from PA and have plenty of mosquitoes but the ones in Maine are brutal so make sure to bring lots of bug spray. I really do appreciate all the little touches to the cabin and ease of checking in and out. Thank you so much! Our family had a wonderful stay!
