About the host
Hosted by Alyssa Pettegrow
I'm from northern Maine and grew up in the hospitality industry so I want to do everything possible to make your stay with us enjoyable! This home is where my husband and I raised our family and now we've opened it up for you and your family and friends to enjoy the area we love to call home. Boating, hiking in Acadia National Park and visiting the local beaches are some of our favorite things to do around here, not to mention stopping into one of the many local restaurants for a delicious meal!
Why they chose this property
We are located in a quiet neighborhood on the edge of Southwest Harbor but yet still close enough that the attractions in town are only a couple minutes drive.
What makes this property unique
Our home is set in a large private yard away from the road with plenty of room for outdoor activities. Keep your eyes open, there always some sort of wildlife wandering through but please be sure not to feed any of them!
