The cottage was very comfortable for 3 senior adults. The owners left clear instructions for checking in and out and quickly responded to questions. Everything was very clean and there were plenty of linens for our use. We all enjoyed the beautiful setting and would love to return sometime.

Fantastic stay - well appointed property!

Recently stayed at Amy’s Gull House and we had a great time. Had all the comforts of home and very accessible to the beach and a family reunion we had in nearby Lamoine. Amy was very responsive and would definitely stay again!

Great Stay in Maine

Our family had a great stay at this house. It had great Decor and we were happy with the full-size washer dryer, and the nice coffee bar. We enjoyed it as our home base and drove into Acadia NP for hiking and sightseeing. We were very pleased with the accommodations.

Our stay in Amy's Gull House was wonderful. The house is clean, well equipped and was perfect for us. It's location half way between Mount Desert Island and Schoodic Peninsula makes it a perfect base for an Acadia region vacation. Amy was very responsive and helpful at all times. Highly recommend and would love to stay here again.

Acadia visit

Cozy, private house to stay in, plenty of room for a family of 5, great for Acadia. Small town near restaurants (about 15 minutes), and also very close to Tidal Falls (a hidden gym). Kids loved the swing out front and the wildlife.
