The cabin is wonderful - cozy and charming, especially with the beautiful layer of snow! The mattress in the loft is very comfortable. The host was very accommodating, kind and very helpful. Amazing host and location.

John (the host) was very welcoming and sent helpful information on local restaurants as well as added in some personal recommendations. The property very well kept and was a very nice place to stay; it was very close to many of the hiking locations in Acadia National Park.

My husband and I enjoyed our visit to this cozy cabin with our dog on our first visit to Mt. Desert Island. It was full of detail and charm. It felt like the perfect size for a couple's getaway. The dog really enjoyed sleeping by the gas fire place as well. It met our needs for the week and very conveniently located as we hiked throughout the island. We also enjoyed having a little distance from the touristy bar harbor. Thank you John!

We had a wonderful stay at John's charming cottage! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The cottage was immaculately clean, cozy, and full of charm—truly a perfect retreat. It had everything we needed, including a fully stocked kitchen which made cooking meals super convenient.The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, offering a relaxing atmosphere after a day of exploring. We also loved the location—just minutes from Acadia’s Hulls Cove Visitor Center and only about 10 minutes from Bar Harbor village center. It couldn’t have been more convenient.One of the best parts for us was that the cottage is pet-friendly, which made it possible for us to bring our furry family member along on the trip—such a bonus!John was a fantastic host—very helpful, responsive, and welcoming. His attention to detail really made our stay easy and enjoyable.We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area and would gladly come back for another stay!
