The cabin is wonderful - cozy and charming, especially with the beautiful layer of snow! The mattress in the loft is very comfortable. The host was very accommodating, kind and very helpful. Amazing host and location.
John (the host) was very welcoming and sent helpful information on local restaurants as well as added in some personal recommendations. The property very well kept and was a very nice place to stay; it was very close to many of the hiking locations in Acadia National Park.
My husband and I enjoyed our visit to this cozy cabin with our dog on our first visit to Mt. Desert Island. It was full of detail and charm. It felt like the perfect size for a couple's getaway. The dog really enjoyed sleeping by the gas fire place as well. It met our needs for the week and very conveniently located as we hiked throughout the island. We also enjoyed having a little distance from the touristy bar harbor. Thank you John!
Staying here was an absolute treat! The location was amazing and just a quick drive to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor and John made it the most accommodating and easy trip. Would definitely stay here again if I came to the area!
We had a wonderful stay at John's charming cottage! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The cottage was immaculately clean, cozy, and full of charmâtruly a perfect retreat. It had everything we needed, including a fully stocked kitchen which made cooking meals super convenient.The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, offering a relaxing atmosphere after a day of exploring. We also loved the locationâjust minutes from Acadiaâs Hulls Cove Visitor Center and only about 10 minutes from Bar Harbor village center. It couldnât have been more convenient.One of the best parts for us was that the cottage is pet-friendly, which made it possible for us to bring our furry family member along on the tripâsuch a bonus!John was a fantastic hostâvery helpful, responsive, and welcoming. His attention to detail really made our stay easy and enjoyable.We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area and would gladly come back for another stay!
Our expectations were high, and the place was even more charming than we expected. The cottage was extremely clean and comfortable, beautifully designed and decorated. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the tools we needed from making our morning coffee to cooking a lobster dinner. Although it is close to town, the dense woods made it feel cozy and secluded. The host was incredibly thoughtful, and always available to answer questions. This was a unique property, and we are hoping to come back again soon.
The property was very clean and has thoughtful touches throughout. The host is super responsive and helpful. What a great location tucked away quietly in the woods but with easy access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Definitely hope to come back!
A gem of a property, quiet wooded setting yet close to hiking and biking and in-town fun.The nicest host. Who makes it easy to feel immediately relaxed and at home. A true escape, beds so comfortable, decor so inviting. Like being at a summer camp for adults. With an excellent well-resourced kitchen too!
Had a wonderful stay at this cottage. Perfectly located near Hulls Cove, close to Pirates Cove, a short walk to the ocean, and quick drive to downtown Bar Harbor. Especially loved the seated area for reading, and the private outdoor space and separate back bedroom. Perfect breeze at night!
Super cozy space, excellent location just a short drive from Bar Harbor. Appreciated the fenced in yard for our dog, and the guitar since we were there to make some music. :)We can't wait to visit again!
I can not tell you how Special this place is !! As soon as you pull in , its like a fairy tale place. Loved , loved our stay. Has everything you need . Enjoyed the deck out back. Loved the cabin room out back. Windows opened to hear the birds. Area is quiet, relaxing. So close to town. Great communication with the owner John. We didn't want to leave !! Awesome memories here.
This is a great place if you want peace and quiet during your mornings and evenings. Great space to just hang out with the family. The cottage is located on a loop that is almost a mile long with very little traffic if you like taking walks and the scenery is amazing. There is a fully furnished kitchen if you like to cook!! My daughter and I had a great stay.The owner is super nice and so very helpful with anything you might need. He answered all of the questions that we had come up and never seemed like we put him out!! This will be my go to place when I visit Bar Harbor again!!
We had the most perfect vacation! This house and host are wonderful. John has thought of everything and the charm abounds! The location is perfect, close enough to Bar Harbor center but far enough away to have some peace and quiet. The short walk to the water is beautiful. We highly recommend this property!
