Summary: This cabin was perfect for our family of five to use as a home base for exploring Acadia National Park! The kitchen was well stocked and provided what we needed to prepare our meals. The beds were all comfortable and the family rooms provided ample room for all of us to sit and read or play games. We didn't miss having AC as we would just open the windows at night when it cooled into the high 50s. We loved kayaking on the tidal cove and exploring it at low tide, and we saw porcupines on the property twice, which was pretty exciting! We enjoyed being on the "quiet side" and split our time pretty evenly between activities/hiking on the east and west sides. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, and I would love to return since we hardly scratched the surface of all the beautiful island has to offer!

Summary: We had an absolutely fantastic experience during our stay at the Kingfisher cabin in Seal Cove. One standout feature of this rental is its access of multiple kayaks, allowing guests to effortlessly explore the Seal Cove and the surrounding shoreline. The property itself exudes an undeniable sense of magic, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking solace in nature. Furthermore, the owner is kind, sharing, and flexible. Highly recommend!

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay right in the beauty of Mount Desert Island! The cabin was so homey and comfortable with everything we could need. The walking trails were fun to explore. We loved our time on the provided kayaks exploring the cove. Easy access to all of Mt Desert Island / Acadia without the need to go through the main entrance (so skipping the traffic.). Hosts were so helpful and gracious. Available when needed but didn’t hover at all either. Highly recommend. Can’t wait to go back!

Summary: The cabin exceeded all of our expectations! It's very comfortable, well equipped, and perfectly located on the quiet side of MDI. We had a great week. We particularly enjoyed the wooded surroundings, the provided kayaks, the very well equipped kitchen, the comfortable beds, and, because of the cool evenings, the wood-burning stove. In addition to kayaking, we did a lot of hiking and biking in Acadia NP, for which all of the major trails are less than 20 minutes away. So glad we picked this place over something on the Bar Harbor side. A big thank you to Joan, who was an excellent host--friendly, responsive, and very helpful.

Summary: We spent a lovely New Year's week at the cabin. It's well furnished and cozy, and we got out for a few winter kayak trips and plenty of hikes in Acadia. Joan and the rest of the Alcyon staff are lovely and hospitable folks. If you're looking to spend some time off the trip and soak in all the Mount Desert has to offer, this is the place!

Summary: A beautiful location. The nearby cove and the secluded setting were ideal. The hosts were available without ever being intrusive. Definitely a more rustic setting, so if you’re looking for luxury appointments, this isn’t your place. But we loved it.

Summary: A lovely cabin! The rooms were comfortable for three adults, and we saw many beautiful birds on the property. Kitchen is well stocked with equipment for cooking and we found the cabin comfortable with heating and cooling. Make sure to play the games in the games closet!
