We had an incredible view of the harbor and absolutely loved staying here. We biked and kayaked right in Southwest Harbor. The host is great and every little thing you can think of is included. We loved the blueberry pancakes we had a long with the lobster. We will definitely stay here again on the quiet side of Mt. Desert Island!

We had a great time at the house and on our excursions. Highly recommend the whale watch in Bar Harbor and Acadia park.

All was great and exactly how it was described. The owner managed the property and the process perfectly. We would contact her for sure if staying in the area again.
