Quietside Studio w/ Fire Pit Near Acadia

Quietside Studio – Peaceful Retreat Near Acadia National Park

Escape to Quietside Studio, a cozy and thoughtfully designed retreat on the peaceful side of Mount Desert Island. Located just minutes from Acadia National Park, Southwest Harbor, and beautiful coastal scenery, it’s an ideal home base for couples and solo travelers looking to enjoy everything Mount Desert Island has to offer while avoiding the crowds of Bar Harbor.

After a day of hiking, biking, kayaking, or sightseeing, relax around your private fire pit beneath the stars, surrounded by trees and fresh Maine air.

The Space

The studio is attached to our family home but has its own private entrance, dedicated parking, and private guest space.

Inside you’ll find:

* Comfortable Nectar queen bed
* Bright, clean studio layout
* Kitchenette for preparing light meals
* Private bathroom
* Fast Wi-Fi
* Roku TV for streaming your favorite services

The studio is designed to be comfortable, functional, and relaxing—perfect for a weekend getaway or an extended visit to Acadia.

Outdoor Living

Enjoy your own outdoor seating area and private fire pit. We also provide an electric Blackstone flat-top grill, perfect for cooking breakfast or preparing a simple dinner after a day of exploring.

Important Information

Because we want every guest to have the right expectations, please note:

The studio is attached to our family home, and we have two young boys. You’ll occasionally hear children playing outside and see normal family activity in the yard, particularly during the daytime. Evenings are generally quiet.

The bathroom uses a macerating plumbing system, so you’ll hear the pump briefly when flushing the toilet or using the shower. The kitchenette includes a sink; the bathroom currently does not have a sink, though one is planned for a future renovation.

We’re continuing to improve portions of the landscaping around the property. Your private fire pit and seating area are complete and fully available, while some surrounding areas remain natural as we continue making improvements.

Location

Quietside Studio is conveniently located:

* About 5 minutes from Southwest Harbor
* Approximately 10–15 minutes from several Acadia National Park entrances
* Close to hiking trails, carriage roads, restaurants, boat tours, and scenic coastal drives

Whether you’re visiting to hike Acadia, explore charming coastal villages, enjoy local restaurants, or simply relax by the fire after a day outdoors, Quietside Studio offers a peaceful, comfortable place to call home during your stay.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

My fiance and I stayed here for a few days and it was perfect for the two of us. It was small and cozy and had everything we needed as well as extremely clean and welcoming. Mike and Michelle took time to help us with some suggestions on local places to eat and the best places to hike. We were very close to a lot of things to do on the quiet side. I highly recommend staying here to anyone!
