This place was so cozy and totally worth it. The owner kept the line of communication open and responds fast. It was so nice having the fire pit outside of the house to hang out at after hiking around Acadia all day. Genuinely would come back and stay again.

My wife, our 3-month-old, and I absolutely loved our stay at the Marsden Cottage. It was the perfect home base for exploring MDI, and we looked forward to returning “home” each evening. The location was perfect—quiet, peaceful, and private, yet just 5 minutes from downtown Southwest Harbor and about 25 minutes from Bar Harbor. The cottage itself is so unique, with tremendous attention to detail throughout its design. It was beautifully appointed and had everything we needed to cook meals and grill, and we especially loved enjoying dinner out on the porch. The complimentary Nespresso pods and wild Maine blueberry jam were such a thoughtful and welcomed extra. We would absolutely stay at the Marsden Cottage again and only wish we could have stayed longer.

The Marsden Cottage was a perfect Haven for my family for our Acadia Park vacation. Our host was wonderful and offered us a full kitchen of pots, pans, spices, and several other things. The laundry room was stocked with extra towels, detergent and fabric softener. We had a super sweet outside, eating area and a smokeless fire pit! The house is nestled back off the main road with lots of wildlife, mainly deer as visitors. My family and I definitely would return and we really hope to do so.

Should have stayed longer! One of our friend is a custom builder and he was very impressed with the workmanship of the cottage, especially the corner shingles on the outside. He said flawless. The cottage was very clean and quiet. We loved the twice a day visit from a deer family walking through the small field in front of the cottage. The showers were fantastic and plenty of water pressure for a great shower. The beds were comfortable and having a bath for each bedroom was awesome. Would not hesitate to stay there again! Highly recommend.

Prime location for exploring Acadia National Park.This house was ideal for two couples. We were there for four nights which gave us plenty of time for a leisurely exploration of Mount Desert Island. Being in Southwest Harbor worked out well, as we were a bit more central to the island, as compared to Bar Harbor over on the east side. We were only 20-30 minutes away from the places we explored during our stay (Jordan Pond, Sand Beach, Cadillac Mountain, Ship Harbor, Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, Beech Mountain). Plus there were good dining options in Southwest Harbor (Upper Deck is highly recommended due to the variety on the menu). The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen area is small, but we were not planning on cooking any gourmet meals, but it was fine for simple breakfasts and preparing our hiker’s lunches. The bathrooms were well laid out and had a nice amount of space.We all enjoyed the outdoor space and walking in the area around the house. The neighbors are very quiet (there is a cemetery adjacent to the house). We saw deer everyday around the area, and I spent time each morning enjoying the many birds in the yard and along the roads around the house.Check-in and check-out were a breeze. Great communication with the owner and caretaker.We had a wonderful stay. We really enjoyed the house and the location. I would stay here again the next time we visit Acadia National Park.

À propos de l’hôte

Hôte : Bernard Jeanfils

Image de profil de l’hôte
In November 2020, Yasmina and Bernard were actively searching for a seasonal rental for their daughter's summer job at Acadia National Park when they found a one-of-a-kind cottage for sale. They instantly fell in love with the property and decided to travel to Maine - in the middle of winter - to check it out.

While enjoying their stay in Southwest Harbor, they met with their hosts, Richard and Kristen. Richard and his team imagined, constructed, and designed the cottage. Richard has worked on projects worldwide, and after settling in Maine, he established a company that has built and renovated homes for over forty years.

The two couples immediately hit it off, sharing a good bottle of wine and lively discussions about art and architecture.
