About this cottage rental

TIDES COTTAGE WILL NOW HAVE 3 BEDROOMS AND 3 BATHROOMS! We have added a master bedroom with private bath at the back of the cottage with the twin bedroom now having it’s own private bathroom! Pictures will be added when the renovations are complete in Mid May. Be sure to watch the video at the end of the photo gallery to see the true setting of the Tides Cottage. Tides Cottage is a waterfront gem located 3 miles to down town Southwest Harbor on the quiet side of MDI. There are several entrances to Acadia nearby, Seawall, Wonderland and Ship Harbor to name a few. Our Cottage has a heat pump providing electric heat or cooling on those hotter days. There is a wood burning stove and wood is provided. The vaulted ceilings, white washed pine walls and a glass front make the living area very spacious, and the perfect place to watch the changing of the tides. Newly remodeled kitchen with quartz countertops. Bedding and towels are provided. We are on the western side of Mount Desert Island, home of Acadia National Park. There is a shared dock with two other cottages, row boat, and kayak at the water's edge for use of our guests. Tides has a gas grill, picnic table, and container fire pit in a private yard. The ocean facing deck offers additional seating. Tides is relaxing retreat at the end of the day and the perfect jumping off point for exploring all that our beautiful Island has to offer

WOW, UTTERLY PERFECT!! I couldn't have found a better house. Private and cozy cabin right on the water with ample space, updated rooms and amenities, pristine landscaping, its own dock, kayaks, and fire pit. House was spotless and has everything that you need. Host was very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend for anyone. The whole island is beautiful!

The photos do not do this spot justice. It was so cozy and our stay was fantastic. We were splitting time in Acadia and Boston, and now I wish I would have made it an entire one in Maine to stay here. I could have drank coffee and stared out the front window over looking the water all day.

Great location with beautiful views. Close enough to restaurants and attractions . Well stocked kitchen and plenty of space overall. The wheeled luggage cart was was a welcome addition as well. Overall an enjoyable stay and if we revisit the area would stay here again

When you first walk in, you notice immediately how clean it is. Well stocked, perfect for our family of five adults. The deck is perfect, overlooks the water and all you need is a good book! Kayaks were wonderful to have right there! The owner was there in ten minutes when we needed a new tank for the grill. She was wonderful. Can’t say enough good things!
