About this cottage rental
Leave the hectic world behind and come to Maine to relax in this quiet cottage in the woods near Acadia National Park. Just 10 minutes to Bar Harbor, 6 minutes to the Park Entrance and Information Center, and 7 minutes to the Hadley Point Beach for swimming, boating, and picnicking.
The master bedroom has a queen size, cushion top mattress and a hand-made lighthouse quilt. The room features nautical-themed decor and a private bathroom with shower and abundant towel racks. Relax in the sitting area or write a postcard at the desk. An overhead fan supplies a gentle breeze.
Light cascades into the second bedroom with its single and bunk, all twin extra-long beds. Cuddle up under the quilts or write letters at the desk. The adjacent bath with tub/shower also serves the living room.
The living area has a pillow-filled sofa suitable for napping, easy chair, and a flat screen TV with Home Theater Surround Sound, Cable, and DVD/CD player. A wide variety of movies are also available from the Jesup Memorial Library in Bar Harbor. You can play with games and toys or savor a book from our library which has everything from mysteries to histories, biology to biography.
The living area opens to the fully equipped kitchen with its refrigerator/freezer, electric stove and oven, separate convection microwave, toaster, blenders, and large sink with dishwasher. Chefs will enjoy the full supply of pans, pots, (including a lobster pot!), cooking utensils, dishware, flatware, coffee pot, and ash picnic basket. As you sit at the oak dining table, sipping your morning coffee or tea, looking out the picture window, you may spot birds, squirrels, or an occasional deer or fox. You may prefer taking breakfast on the front porch before heading out for a day of hiking in the Park or sightseeing and shopping in the quaint towns of Mount Desert Island.
In the evening, enjoy rocking on the front porch or solving jigsaw puzzles at the game table. There you may catch the lovely scent of balsam fir and drink in the exquisite tranquility of Maine at its best.
Children welcome. No pets. Non-smoking.

This cabin was wonderful to stay in while visiting Acadia. It was In the woods which was very peaceful but also within an easy drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The cabin was very clean and cute. We were able to use the grill and make meals to eat in (plenty of kitchen items). The hosts were very friendly (loved the pie that was waiting for us). We would definitely stay here again if back in the area.

Not only is this property charming and cozy, its location is fabulous! It's situated in a wooded residential neighborhood that winds down by the ocean for lovely sunrise views. It is 3 miles from Acadia visitor center and 8 miles from Bar Harbor. There's a bus stop for the Island Explorer within a mile of the cottage at the Bar Harbor camp ground.The cottage itself was wonderful (and so are the owners!). They provided games, jigsaw puzzles, toys for children, videos, and a whole library of books for the occasional quiet evening or rainy afternoon. We enjoyed sitting outside on the porch, having morning coffee or hanging out in the evening in the rocking chairs and swinging after going to the many sights, hikes, or wherever we were that day.The cottage was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. The kitchen had everything needed to make full meals, which made it a perfect retreat.I'd highly recommend this cottage for your Maine vacation!!
