About this house rental

Nestled just steps from the Acadia Gateway Center, our recently updated cottage offers a peaceful retreat just a few minutes off Mount Desert Island. Fire up the grill, indulge in fresh lobster feasts, and create unforgettable moments with loved ones. With easy access to Island Explorer shuttles and nearby trails, exploring Acadia National Park is a breeze. Pack your bikes, hiking boots, and appetite, and let Maine's wonders unfold before you!

We allow up to two pets for an additional fee (see house rules). No cats. additional $20 per/night pet fee. Furniture must remain covered and pets are not allowed on the beds, unless you bring your own linens.

The Space
The home features a master bedroom upstairs with a large balcony and an additional bedroom downstairs. There is also a very comfortable queen-sized sleeper sofa in the front sitting room for additional guests (up to six total).
The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you should need for your stay, from a lobster pot to a crockpot. There is a great outdoor area to enjoy meals, grill, let your pups run, or have a campfire after a long day of hiking.

Guest Access
The whole house is yours except for the upstairs closet.

Other Things to Note
Both TVs are smart TVs and allow you to stream using your own accounts (Netflix, HBO Now, Spectrum, etc.). We have high-speed WiFi, and the password is written on the check-in sheet inside the home. There should be no issues working remotely from the house if needed.

The water is safe to drink but does have a slight sulfur smell. If this bothers you, you may want to bring bottled water. Please note that the hot and cold water are reversed in the bathroom sink and shower.

We allow dogs at this property and take the utmost care to clean thoroughly between stays, including removing pet hair. However, occasional stray hairs may be left behind. If there are ever any issues, please reach out to me.

The upstairs bedroom does not have a door. However, it is still very private — you cannot see into the space until you are fully up the stairs. The master bedroom is the only room on the upper floor.


Neighborhood overview:
Trenton sits between Mount Desert Island and Ellsworth. It allows for quick and easy access the Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park (15 minutes or so), or the other adorable towns scattered along the island. Ellsworth is also close by which offers larger box stores if needed during your stay. Both are filled with great restaurants and cafes!

To say we enjoyed our stay would be an understatement! The house is just as advertised and then some. We enjoyed all the space and comfort, with plenty of room for our family and dogs, as well as all of the amenities, especially the hot tub which is pristine. The kitchen was well stocked with all we needed to cook a few meals to save on eating out. The location is fantastic, being only 20 minutes from Bar Harbor/Acadia, while far enough to offer close proximity to more standard/affordable grocery, seafood, and restaurant options. Just far enough off the road to stifle the highway sounds and a nice drive to walk the dogs on. Walking distance to the Park Gateway Center and short drive to a disc golf course was a big plus. We would recommend this stay to any who are traveling to the Acadia area!

Had a great relaxing long weekend. The house was perfect for our needs and had everything you could possibly need. The hot tub was awesome for the snowy days we had after hiking. The host was super responsive to any of our questions and needs. We will certainly be making another trip out there
