「モスマウンテンコテージ」クリーン、プライベート、セントラルマウントデザート島

I built Moss Mountain Cottage in 1988 as a single mother raising my lovely daughter who now lives with her family in Southern California (much too far away)! Now married, I live in downtown Bar Harbor with my husband, across the street from my three lovely granddaughters.
As young girls, my daughter and her cousin spent countless hours combing the backwoods of our property and collecting moss. Their grand plan was to make wreaths to sell to the tourists - leading they were sure - to their fame and fortune. The small hill where they found the best moss, they named 'Moss Mountain.' Although they never sold a wreath (I'm not even sure they completed one), they spent hours in our backyard playing, laughing and planning their futures, as little girls love to do. I'll always treasure those days and those girls, and it is this fond memory that inspired me to name our guest house 'Moss Mountain Cottage.'
We hope you'll create your own happy memories while staying here as well.gar

Mount Desert Island has been my home since I graduated from college - a very long time ago - and I love it here. During the summer I hike and bike the trails of Acadia, comb the beaches to collect sea glass and sea-tumbled rocks, garden, volunteer, and take in all the island has to offer in unique shops and gourmet restaurants. During our cold and snowy winters, I take early morning walks or snowshoe on the breathtakingly beautiful and very quiet carriage roads, spend time with my family and friends, and read some great books I've been meaning to get to all summer.
When I travel away for any length of time and start yearning to see the mountains of Acadia and smell the sea air as I cross the Trenton bridge onto MDI - that's when I really know how much I appreciate and love my island home and I can't wait to share it with you!
