This property was exactly what we were looking for. We wanted to be by the water and close to Acadia hikes but away from the crowds. Brant was very helpful and made sure our stay was everything we wanted.
We had such a great stay at Loon Cottage. The location was beautiful, and very convenient to the park. The owners are thoughtful and kind and our whole experience was excellent.
As usual, we had a wonderful stay. Brant and Maggie are great hosts. The cottage is comfortable and relaxing and the location is great for heading out for adventures or into town. We love staying here. Till next summer!
We had an excellent time. We really enjoyed the location of the cottage and the privacy. Our dog enjoyed playing with Angel and Millie. Grant and Maggie were gracious hosts. We would definitely return. I can’t say enough great things about this place and the views and wildlife are amazing!!!
The loon cottage was well appointed, clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was there for our week visit. Brant and Maggie are gracious hosts. We enjoyed our visits with Brant and dogs Millie and Angel. The dog friendliness of the cottage was great for us with a perfect beach (that our toddler loved too!) and trails to walk. Location is central to many amenities, sites and restaurants. We will be back!
This was our second stay at Brant's place, which I hope will convey how much we enjoyed our first visit. The location of the property makes for easy travel to the main hiking trails in Acadia and to Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor. The house is well-appointed and roomy and is a couple of minute walk to a long rocky beach by the bay, which my wife and dog both swam in. Brant is warm and friendly and responsive to questions or requests. He has two friendly dogs that our dog had a lot of fun playing with.
Another wonderful vacation at the cottage! Close to Acadia National Park but away from the crowds. A nice quiet setting with access to the water. And our hosts, Maggie and Brant were wonderful as usual. Looking forward to next year!
Very accommodating and hospitable host with a great dog friendly property! We were very comfortable, loved the beach and are going to miss our morning walks with the dogs. Excellent location to access Mt. Desert Island, Bar Harbor and Acadia. Will definitely be back.

Thank you for your kind words. Hope to see you again soon. Angel sends her love to your pups.
Our family really enjoyed our weeklong stay at Loon Cove. The private beach was perfect for our kiddo explorers/swimmers. The views were amazing. The house is clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The owners were very helpful and accommodating. Perfect vacation for us, and we hope to return in the future.

Thank you for your kind words, ...and the yummy bread. Please, do come back soon!
Brant and Maggie were kind and generous hosts. The cottage is lovely - immaculate and well-stocked with necessities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved beach, the eagles, the seals and the dogs and could not possibly have asked for more.
