8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2025
I vacationed with my 17 year old son. I appreciated the location (quiet and close to everything we explored). The owner was quick and responsive to all messages. This is a no frills house, but comfortable enough for my needs. Beds were comfortable and internet worked well. I unfortunately had to clean the bathroom upon arrival and let the owner know about it. I also had other suggestions that the owner was open to. Traveling with an older teenager, it would have been nice to have a larger television in his bedroom area, and a more of a comfortable “living room” for myself. I had to use my laptop to watch TV at night. The shower is quite small, especially for a tall teenage boy. I enjoyed my coffee in the morning on the back porch. The area is amazing during the fall!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage. Nestled in a peaceful location, it offers the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor, while still being conveniently close to both the town and Acadia National Park. The cottage is well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including a fully functional kitchen for meal preparation. Grace was incredibly responsive and attentive, ensuring that all of our questions were promptly answered. If we return to Acadia National Park, this cottage will undoubtedly be our top choice for accommodations.

The cottage was in a perfect location for my family's one week stay. Only a short drive to Bar Harbor, the beach at Seal Harbor and the trails and carriage roads of Acadia. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need for preparing any meals. The air conditioner and heaters (one cool night!) worked very well. I recommend this cottage to everyone planning on visiting the area!

Great communication with owners. Nice cottage. Close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Very convenient location. We had 2 adults and 2 teens and enough room for us all. Full kitchen allowed us to have breakfast at home, make lunches for outings, and eat dinner in when we wanted to.
