We've been travelling to Mount Desert Island for years. This trip was our first time staying on the "quiet side" of Southwest Harbor/Seawall. The property seemed almost too good to be true from the pictures, yet somehow the pictures don't come close to doing it justice. The views (and sounds) of the water from every part of the home are magnificent. If it weren't for the wildlife, sailboats, and lobster boats passing by, you'd swear it was a painting. Speaking of paintings, you can spend an entire day just admiring the pictures, maps, and decor throughout. It's a home that's been loved with quintessential coastal maine character in every space. The hosts were great and I sincerely appreciated Victoria working with us on our dates. After living in Bar Habor, vacationing in Northeast, and now finally staying in Southwest, this is where we'll stay again before considering anywhere else, and I mean this home specifically. Oh of course there's Acadia, one the greatest National Parks in my opinion. So many great hikes this side of island that are barely 15 minutes away, and far less crowded so you can really take it all in. I'm already starting to plan a trip back in early October! Victoria, we need to talk :)

What a peaceful and beautiful location! We enjoyed our stay so much that we booked it again for next year. The house and cottage were perfect for our family of 6 and our dog. The hot tub was a nice bonus at days end. We enjoyed viewing the full moon as it rose over the water and beautiful sunrises. The deer were frequent visitors. The house is beautiful with a homey feel, well equipped and very clean. We loved putting together the jigsaw puzzles and noticed a full array of games and books for every interest. The location was perfect for accessing Bar Harbor (tip- pick up the Island Explorer bus from Hulls Visitor Center to beat the parking fees) as well as hiking all over MDI. Can’t wait to go back.

We really enjoyed our stay in Seawall. The property was gorgeous and waking up everyday to the sounds of the waves was magical. We stayed with 3 young children and would definitely recommend this property to families!

The location is spectacular. Hot tub is wonderful after long hikes. Well appointed kitchen and perfect for small groups.
