Great fall getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed Top Side Cottage. Great views from the living room. Good water pressure with plenty of hot available. A special treat to sit by the fire in the cool evenings with plenty of firewood provided. So happy to have the washer & dryer to clean up our hiking clothes at the end of the trip. Hooray for a strong WiFi signal. Great central location for exploring Mt. Desert Island.

The Quietside/Quarry Rules

Exactly what it is marketed as. Well equipped, plenty of room for 4. Clean. Perfect location for staying on the Quietside or heading over to the busier part of Acadia. Totally satisfied. Bugs and weather cooperated too.

Amazing View!

We enjoyed a wonderful week staying at the Top Side cottage. The view of Somes Sound and Acadia's mountains from the patio and living room is absolutely stunning. I was tempted to just stay on the patio and savor the view, but the location was central to everywhere we wanted to go... mostly hiking throughout the park, but also dining in Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor. We appreciated how well supplied the cottage was with soap, detergent, towels, and even wood for the fireplace. Thanks so much for your hospitality, Paul.

A great place on the Quietside

We really enjoyed our stay. The feel of the place is "cottage" or "camp" however the location and the view can't be beat. The place was clean and the furniture was comfortable. It was so nice to be staying far from the crowds, and yet Acadia NP is close and easy to get to. Our hosts were incredibly responsive. The refrigerator was noisy (and apparently old, although it didn't look it) and I wasn't even going to mention it, but thought they should know. The day after I brought it up, they put in a new refrigerator. Oh yeah--the lobsters bought at cost from our host were the freshest and tastiest I've ever had!

Cute cottage with fabulous location on Somes Sound

Perfect location (far enough from the crowds, but still close to all of Acadia Nat’l Park’s activities), amazing view of Somes Sound from the patio, spotlessly clean, comfortably furnished with what seemed to be new comfortable mattresses, super-responsive host/owner, fresh lobster right off the dock a 2 minute walk down the hill, and very reasonably priced….what more can you ask for a great Maine vacation.

Great location

We stayed at this wonderful house September 18 thru September 25. It was so comfortable and the view we saw every morning overlooking the sound was beautiful. Its location to the Acadia National Park made it a perfect space to explore this treasure. It was close to grocery store, and several restaurants. Paul was very welcoming and we spoke with him on a couple of occasions and he shared information on the area and on lobstering. We are definitely returning to this house.

Great property

Topside cottage was everything we needed in a perfect location. The views of Somes sound and the mountains from both inside and out were beautiful. The property was clean and well maintained. The common docks were great. Kids loved fishing, taking out the rowboat and picking up the fresh lobsters from the docks. We would definitely stay here again. It was close enough to Acadia and Bar Harbor to be convenient but far enough away to be peaceful and quiet.

Amazing time w/ an amazing view!

We had a great time at Paul's property -- all the essentials were there for us, including filters, LOTS of towels, linens, firewood, and more. We made heavy use of the fireplace and the home was extremely cozy. Paul was also quick to respond to questions we had about things we could do in the area. If you're curious about internet speeds and working remotely, we were all working remotely (4 of us), and we didn't have any issues w/ the internet speed. I think we were getting somewhere around ~20Mbps so plenty for surfing the internet, streaming, or Zoom meetings. We would definitely come back again!

Perfect Maine Get Away

We had a wonderful week in Acadia. This house was exactly what we needed for our stay. It came prepared with all the basic needs, had beautiful views, and was close to everything we wanted to see and do. The property owners were super friendly and we loved being able to get fresh lobster from the dock! We can not recommend this location enough! Can’t wait to come back again!

Terrific stay with terrific hosts

The house was perfect. Super clean, covid practices in place. Everything needed was there. They even prepped the fireplace to be ready to light. Loved having a washer and dryer with detergent on site. Hosts supplied all soap for laundry and dishwasher. Be sure to let Paul know if you want lobster and then pick them up right from the dock in front of the houses. Amazing views from the back patio. Paul took us on a boat tour of the lighthouses. It was a great way to see them from the ocean. Highly recommend Topside for all your MDI adventures.

Perfect Stay

We stayed at Topside and this was an absolutely perfect cabin for our family. The view: outstanding. The house was beyond comfortable. King bed! Queen bed! Twin beds! Fireplace well stocked with wood for a cold dreary night after being caught in the rain on a hike through Acadia. But air conditioned too for when it heated up the next day. Wifi was a Godsend for a zoom course my son had to take while we were away. The 3 docks were awesome for my youngest to try his hand at fishing and the sound was quiet and perfect for kayaking. Best of all, Paul is a lobsterman and sells you fresh catch at super cheap prices. And the cabin had a huge pot just for steaming them up! I have already recommended this place to extended family and we are looking to be back again soon. Highly recommend. Could not have been better.

Amazing stay! Location, View and Home!

We loved our stay at Topside! Paul and Ashlee were extremely hospitable and accommodating! The home is well kept, well stocked and was perfect for our week vacation in Acadia National Park. We loved the location, because it was in the middle of Mount Desert Island and gave us easy access to different areas of touring the park. And you absolutely can't beat the view. We could have spent hours a lone just sitting out on the back porch enjoying the view. We got to catch a few beautiful sunrises as well. I would definitely recommend staying at Topside - we can't wait to be back! Thank you!

Exactly what we were looking for!

We just finished a fantastic week in Topside Cottage! Ashlee set the tone a year earlier when she coached us through the available dates, cottages, peak times for crowds, and best bets for peak color. (There are no guarantees, but we nailed it this year going the second week in October.) Ashlee and Paul were unfailingly friendly and helpful. If Acadia is your primary destination, you'll have a hard time finding a better location than the Cottages. You're only about a 15-20 minute ride from the mainland (which I definitely recommend for your grocery shopping), the Acadia entrances, Bar Harbor, and Southwest Harbor. Go where you want to go, and then make the short drive with little traffic back to your cottage on the Sound, where you'll only see someone else if you go out looking for them. We loved the woodsy setting and the privacy. The cottages have been in the family for years and have obviously been tenderly cared for. At the same time, if you want to stay someplace where everything is brand new, look somewhere else. That's not what the cottages are about. They're about a feeling of having a home for the week instead of a hotel room, having your own space instead of staying with a crowd of people, and dealing with family owners instead of corporate employees. We flew into Portland, spent the first night there, and then worked our way up the coast, spending the second night in Boothbay and the third in Rockland before checking into Topside. I'm so glad we did that instead of taking the interstate straight to MDI! We enjoyed the coastal towns so much, when it came time to drive back to Portland we took the coastal road again, despite the traffic. A few of the things we'd wanted to do closed after Columbus Day, like McCloons Lobster Shack on Spruce Head Island. But the lobster rolls at Wharf Gallery & Grill on the Schoodic Peninsula more than made up for it. Don't miss the Peninsula, by the way. There's one trade off to be aware of when you pick your dates. The free Island Explorer buses that go everywhere on the island stop running after Columbus Day. We sorta missed that. The trade off was, the crowds were smaller, the parking easier, and the leaves more colorful. We'd love to do it all again, and if we do, our first call will be to Ashlee and Paul.

Perfect Hidden Gem in the heart of Acadia

Year after year we look forward to returning to this perfect Acadia get away. Amazing views of Somes Sound and the distant mountains. You will want for nothing in these fully stocked spacious cottages scattered on a hillside but each with total privacy. There are days we simply do not want to leave the cottage. This is on the quiet side of the island but close enough to everything with Bar Harbor less than 15 minutes away. Paul & Ashlee are so sweet and accommodating and only a stones throw away if you have any questions. Rain or shine, we have never had a bad stay here. Brian G. & David Papa
