Summary: We spent 4 nights in this cottage which had everything we needed. The location is great for exploring and hiking on the quiet side of Acadia but easy enough to get everywhere we wanted to go. We were able to walk to and from the town (Southwest Harbor) in about 10 minutes. It is very well equipped and comfortable and we hope to return. It's nice to have the option of renting their other cottage as well for a bigger group and is also dog friendly.Keep your eyes open for wildlife!

Summary: This cottage was truly a hidden gem. Conveniently located and yet it felt totally private and relaxing. Clean, spacious, comfortable, and well supplied. The sunrise views are to die for! We had camped for two weeks prior to our stay so we were hoping for a relaxing close to our trip to Acadia and this cottage delivered. It had everything we needed with regards to cookware, space (2 adults and 2 kids), great wifi for the mornings I had to connect with work, the cutest laundry building, and a perfect outdoor set up for meals and campfire (even though we only used it once). My only note for other families with toddlers (my 15-month-old had just started walking), is to consider bringing or renting a baby gate or just block the stairs with a suitcase. The stairs are steep and you also don't want a toddler in the king bedroom in the loft due to the gaps in the railing (we have a similar set up in our own home so we were prepared). We hope to return in the future!

Summary: We absolutely loved our trip here. The cabin is more gorgeous in person than the pictures. The cabin is close to everything and a short walk to the town. The outdoor seating area with the fire was a welcome way to spend a cool evening. It was nice to have a kitchen and laundry room. The loft overlooking the water was perfect. We hope to come back and would absolutely stay here again!

Summary: This was our second stay at the cottage and it was everything we remembered from our first trip. It feels very secluded and peaceful but is walkable to town and the restaurants and shops of Southwest Harbor. Beds are comfy and there is everything you would need in the house, including many games and books in the laundry area which was very nice

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at the cabin! The location was so peaceful, yet close to everything we needed. We loved sitting on the loft and reading and my daughter loved the bunk beds. Everything was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Loved the outdoor fire pit too! Couldn’t have asked for a better week.
