Summary: The beauty of Mount Desert Islans goes without saying. The cottage itself is absolutely perfect. It is private, quiet, stocked with everything we need, and has the traditional coastal charm. The yard is awesome with the fire pit, space to play and for our dog to run, and well maintained. We enjoyed paddleboarding on the marsh, views of the moon, stars, and northern lights, and all of the wildlife as the tides changed. It was our second time staying, and I hope that we can continue the tradition. The house is cozy and feels like home, and is pretty much equidistant from all of the different areas of the island and sites in the National park. It is always a peace of Heaven when we stay.

Summary: Fantastic spot. SUPER clean cottage. It’s not fancy but it’s got everything you need and management was very attentive. We brought flip flops for the bathroom (carpet) and I wish the double bed was a little bigger, but otherwise great home. Very quiet and private. Perfect for stargazing.

Summary: This perfect cottage lays on a quiet cove/ pond in a peaceful section of the busy Mount Desert. Mornings and evenings we sat out on the deck with our dogs and watched the ducks and gulls and even a Bald Eagle. I would rebook in a heartbeat- this is Maine with all the character and personality and peaceful surroundings.that we love so much. Also the house was spotless and had everything we needed to cook delicious dinners.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A perfect cottage, location, everything. We loved our stay here! Very clean, classic waterfront cottage. We hiked, kayaked, ate lobster rolls (Thurston's, Archie's), woodfire pizza (Sweet Pea) and blueberry pie (The Crust Station). We had the best late summer weather, and let the cool breezes come in. We loved watching the tides, the gulls, cormorants, herons, ducks, and even a crane from the deck. Coastal Maine Vacations provides an excellent property management service. It was great to have a washer and dryer on hand. The bed was not the best but everything else makes up for this. We would not hesitate to return.

Summary: An outstanding home base for a week in Acadia. 20 minutes from everything you’ll want to explore, it’s the perfect spot for easy access to Bar Harbor’s vibrant town, with its restaurants and shops. Whether you're looking to take on some of the area's most famous hikes or visit iconic spots like Thunder Hole and Jordan Pond, Nonie's Nest puts you right in the middle of it all. For dining, you’re spoiled for choice. Just five minutes away, we enjoyed Traveling Lobster—5 lobsters, 5 corn, 2 lbs mussels, 1 lb clams, all for $115. If you’re in the mood for bbq, Mainly Meat’s is less than 10 min away. It’s a dog-friendly venue, where we savored the Max Platter for $79, more than enough to feed our family. The cottage is a gem. It’s clear that the owner has thoughtfully equipped the home with everything you might need. We brought our dog, who had a blast in the yard. My son, a l bird photographer, was thrilled by the variety of species attracted to the nearby body of water, which offers a fascinating experience with its 9-foot tide changes. Evenings were spent roasting marshmallows, easily started with kindling found in the woods. The beds were comfortable, the house was clean, and the kitchen was perfect for breakfast—saving us the expense of dining out. lunches, we packed pb&j for hikes and saved our splurges for dinner at favorites like Abel’s, Thurston’s, and Beal’s. If u want to save 1/2 try going over the bridge/off island for dinner highly recommend Nonnie’s Nest!

Summary: The property is absolutely beautiful. The cottage sits right on the inlet and in August you could watch the sun set over the inlet. The place was clean and well supplied. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would stay again in a heartbeat.
