Nice location and the inside has charming setting

This cottage is located in a nice small quaint downtown area where you can walk to pick up some groceries and cook in or go out for a satisfying meal. The cottage has a mix of an antique and modern feel with all the comforts of home including some thoughtful decor. You can easily take a short drive to reach the carriage road trail heads for biking/walking or the mountain trail heads for hiking. We did some biking while there and loved the carriage trail system. We'll have to come back for some hiking next time:) Bar Harbor is approximately a 25 minute drive. My husband, two teenage boys and I had a wonderful stay here! Thank you!

Period charm and modern pleasure in a beautiful, central location.

Hydrangea's hide the cottage from the road and line the entrance way, providing a great privacy barrier. Once inside, we felt right at home. The interior is a wonderful mix of old and new, which has been beautifully arranged. Everything was extremely clean and fresh smelling, but not overpowering. I have allergies to perfumes & dyes, so I run from too much potpourri. There is a working fireplace, but it was too warm to use it during our visit. We could only imagine how nice it would be to return after a hike and have a fire in the fireplace and a refreshment in hand. The kitchen is well stocked with most everything needed to prepare a gourmet meal, and the Wolf stove was a treat to cook on. There is a beautiful back yard meadow view from the kitchen window, with a gas grill on the deck and picnic table for dining as well. We had a little laugh about some of the negative reviews and all agreed that we would love to return.

Rice Cottage - Loved it!

We have stayed in Southwest Harbor several times and we both agree the Rice Cottage was by far the nicest accommodation we have experienced. We had two teenage grandchildren with us that each had their own bedroom in the cottage with a shared bath and we enjoyed the newer great room accommodations. The kitchen is very well stocked with utensils, pots, pans etc. and easy to work. The stove and outside grill are 1st class. We enjoyed a few home cooked meals in the cottage dining area and played cards in the great room every night. The cottage is filled with antiques which add to the quaint Maine atmosphere and is truly unique for a rental. It's location is convenient to walking to town shops and restaurants. Note that there is a farmers market during the summer on Thursday mornings with pastries, breads and fresh lobster at a very reasonable price for home cooking. We sure enjoyed that! The hosts communications were clear and timely and much appreciated. To say the least, we really enjoyed our stay at the Rice Cottage and would certainly return there in the future.

This is an old maine house, with all of its character and charm, settled in the heart of Southwest Harbor, within walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. It is exactly as it appears in the pictures. The things that you can't tell from the pictures. The house could use some light blocking drapes, the bedroom windows face East and the Sun is up at 5:00 a.m. and so are you.The bedroom with the twin beds is not air conditioned, however this wasn't a problem for us, because we enjoyed cool nights.The king size mattress upstairs could use some padding, like a mattress topper.There is a TV in the great room and there's enough seating in front of it for three people. The front room with the fireplace has a comfortable love seat, but the other chairs in the room are not comfortable, their only for looks. That room could use a small TV.The chairs at the dining room table, are antique and fragile, therefore you can't use them.And there was no Wi-fi while we were there. But we enjoyed the house and our stay, we made the best of not having Wi-Fi by playing cards at night. The house is quiet and sits back away from the main road, so you enjoy some privacy. Around the house is a stone path, beautiful hydrangeas and you frequently see deer grazing in the back yard. We enjoyed our stay.Southwest Harbor is the best pick, if you want to see Acadia, and enjoy the island, it has a lovely small town feel, the people are friendly the restaurants are excellent.

Rice Cottage is a dream vacation!!!

If I could give Rice Cottage 10 stars, I would! Owners Diane and Jay have an absolutely beautiful home and I am so grateful that they are willing to share it. The antique dƩcor is thoughtfully and beautifully arranged--an antique lover's dream!. My husband and I spent our visit in the new master suite but I had to keep going upstairs just to look at and admire the beauty of the 2 other bedrooms! The cottage was impeccably clean and had everything necessary for a wonderful vacation. It rained most of the week but the cottage was so cozy and it was actually a delight to watch the weather change hour by hour. Doing Acadia's Jordan Pond trail early on a morning with light rain and a pretty stiff wind was the highlight of our trip. As the Irish say, theres no bad weather, only the wrong clothing! Thankfully we were well prepared! I recommend the Jordan Pond and the Ship Harbor trails as fairly easy and absolutely gorgeous. Also took a drive to Stonington, a fishing village on Deer Isle,about an hour and 20 min away--absolutely magical! Schoodic is about the same distance away and so worth the drive. We found Rice Cottage to be well situated to explore the Acadia area with so much to do and see within a short drive. The view out the back window presents a meadow loaded with so many lupines and other wild flowers it will make your heart sing even in the rain. We would stay at Rice Cottage again in a heartbeat! Highly recommend this home as your vacation base!!!

Wonderful stay in Southwest Harbor

I want to give this place a 4.5 but no option for that. The proximity to town is great. Place is very quaint, well kept up. Owners are very attentive and helpful. Couple items could/should be fixed but you can see they do care about their place. There is a lot of stuff in this house, but all has its place. I just want to thank the owners for a great stay.

Booked this at the last minute due to a change of plans. Eventually were able to talk directly with owner, Jay, to work things out. Great location within steps of restaurants, shops & downtown. Also a short drive to hikes and parks. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect place for a visit to Mt. Desert Island.

The Rice Cottage is lovely and Southwest Harbor is the perfect location for a visit to Mount Desert Island. The house (actually two conjoined buildings) has been in the owners' family for over a century. Although the structures are old, they are immaculate, with beautiful antique furnishings and high quality linens. Also, the owners are actively improving the house - as our stay ended a truck arrived with a load of new tile for the upstairs bath. The house is tucked behind the Kingsleigh Inn and a little hard to find on GPS. The on-line photo of the cottage is the back entrance. It is also of a style typical to the island so you won't readily recognize it. However, the owners provide turn-by-turn directions and, if you follow them, you won't go wrong. Additionally, Southwest Harbor is a small, quiet village with good restaurants and a market and all the amenities you might need. It is not so busy or touristy as Bar Harbor, but only 20 to 25 minutes away and even closer than that to the national park. The Rice Cottage would be a 5 star in my book except there is really no water view to speak of and some of the adjacent homes between the house and the water do not add positively to the view. Nevertheless, we would certainly stay there again should we return to MDI.

A great place to stay when visiting Acadia

Great location in Southwest Harbor and a great place to stay when visiting Acadia. Even though it is steps from the center of town you don't even notice the neighboring buildings when you are in the house. The house was beautifully decorated with antiques in every room. This was a little daunting at first because of our two young boys but we just moved the most fragile items out of reach and settled in comfortably. The in-law suite was great because we were staying with extended family. It is the coziest room in the house and also had the TV. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies. Chairs outback were great for star gazing and you can see a LOT of stars. The owners were really helpful and easy to work with.

West Coast to East Coast for Maine Fall Colors

We loved this place! Rice Cottage is a quintessential, well wrapped, jewel of a cottage. Perfectly appointed, with all the amenities one would want. Conveniently situated in South Harbor Maine, it proved to be the ideal launch pad for our week of exploration and sight seeing the Maine coast and Acadia NationaPark. Especially noted, were the beautiful cozy linens that welcomed our weary bodies to bed every night. Ahhhhh. The natural history of the island is well spun throughout the design and layout of the home. We found Rice Cottage to be both interesting and comfortable. I particularly loved the pastoral views and natural light that enhanced our experience, as we relaxed in our home away from home.We cannot wait to return. Don't miss this ***** stay!!!

In season or Off season a cozy, convenient rental

We have rented the Rice Cottage for three summers for 3-4 weeks at a time in August. We decided to try it for Thanksgiving week. In the summer we particularly like that, with children grown, this location provides walking distance to Main St shops and restaurants but yet the house is set back off road so no road noise to deal with. In summer we find the house quiet, sunny and cool. Beds are comfortable, appliances new and the owners have a fine sense of decoration. For off season, it does get quiet on the island but that is what we expected. You can't beat the hikes on MDI, all a short drive away, but we had a wintery, icy time so that didn't quite go as planned. The house has two full baths and sleeps 6 comfortably. Good cable TV set up for football games etc. Sips restaurants was open all day and Havana over in Bar Harbor, our favorite, was too. Much of the rest was closed. There is now a fenced in front yard and an expansive open back yard so if a dog comes along you can be happy and the dog can be happy. Our repeat bookings and off season stay pretty much says what we think of the Rice Cottage. Good luck

Good location - bad location

Spent the last week of August here. It's an interesting home. As you can see in the pic it's made up of 3 parts, the bedrooms and living room which flow in to what appears to be a newer section with the kitchen and then a newer section that is a day room coupled with the laundry and downstairs bath. It's located within an easy walk to downtown Southwest Harbor. However, it sits immediately behind the Kingsleigh Inn. And by immediately I mean just steps behind. It's close enough that I was awakened several mornings by either their guests out and about or their heating system kicking in. The exterior view photo above is the back of the house, taken at an angle away from the Inn. The kitchen has a gorgeous picture window looking out to the adjacent pasture. However, it doesn't open. In order to get any airflow to the kitchen (remember, no A/C to cool it) you open two windows on the front of the house (facing the Kingsleigh) which is also where the trash is kept. By the end of the week, that wasn't a good combination. As for the mentioned water views, that is possible during the winter, but during the summer the view is blocked by trees and the neighbor's house/garage. I also, personally, found the furniture to be uncomfortable. Maybe that's just me. But after a day of out-and-about or hiking it was tough to find a comfortable way to kick back and relax.

Cute cottage in town - perfect location in SWH

We spent 4th of July week exploring Acadia and had an excellent location in the Rice Cottage for our stay. This was our first time to Maine, and it was hard to know where to stay. It was my family of four, (two pre-teen kids), plus the grandparents. We had plenty of room in the house for all 6 of us. We loved being able to walk to dinner (Sips, Red Sky and Fiddler's Green for dinner and Sips and Sea Biscuit for breakfast all yummy! (Avoid Grumpy's for breakfast, not a good choice on our part and we all left Grumpy!)) or get groceries right in town. The kids could even walk to ice cream by themselves. Even saw 4th of July fireworks out the bedroom window upstairs. We had a mixed weather week, cool at the beginning and then very warm at the end. We are used to central AC, so a tough adjustment without it, but all in all we made use of the fans and stayed comfortable. Recommendations while in Acadia - Dive In boat tour with Captain Ed, the best thing we did on the trip, educational, informative and just plain fun. We spent a lot of time hiking the trails, and even did the bridges carriage ride. Jay and Diane were wonderful to deal with in renting the Rice Cottage. We spoke a few times and exchanged e-mails before the trip and Jay checked in to make sure all was well when we were there. The cottage was clean and well maintained. Beds were very comfortable and we all slept great every night. Overall the Rice Cottage met all of our needs for the week and we had an awesome time. Thank you for allowing us to stay in this little oasis.

Absolutely Charming!

Dear Jay & Diane, We want to thank you so much for providing us with such a beautiful home for our family vacation. The Rice Cottage was absolutely PERFECT! We were pleasantly surprised to see that the home was conveniently located just steps away from shops and restaurants of the quaint Southwest Harbor. We enjoyed the charming antique decor, the cleanliness of the home, the large selection of linens, the fully functional kitchen and especially the chairs in the back yard where we could watch the hundreds of butterflies in the fields for hours! I look forward to recommending our home to family and friends with future travel plans to Acadia. Most sincerely, Violeta
