Super-clean, cozy cottage with everything we needed. Quiet neighborhood in a convenient location. Walking distance to some restaurants and a brewery. Would stay again and recommend to others!
This cottage was supplied with all the things we could have asked for! This worked out perfectly for a few easy breakfasts before we went out exploring. I found the location convenient too — we rarely more than 15-20 minutes from our destinations around the island. We loved being able to come back and sit around the fire ring!!
Very nice cottages privately set back from the road. 15 minutes from Acadia and 20-25 to Bar Harbor. We spent most of our stay in one of those areas. There’s not much around the cabin so the short trips are necessary but easy to navigate. The cottage was comfortably sized and had a nice kitchen.
College friends came to hike and bike Acadia. Great, conveniently located place to get to various points in Acadia and hang out in Bar Harbor. Very clean. Great communication with host when we had questions. If renting and coming at night you might miss the sign for the cabins. Just look for the small, local market/merchantile. Entrance is right across the street. Great place. Highly recommend!
Kitchen was well stocked with all essential items for an enjoyable stay. Washer and dryer available in the bathroom which was great to have for a longer stay!
The cottage is in a perfect location; it's clean, comfortable, and ready to welcome guests warmly. Communication was smooth. We'd definitely consider staying in this cozy cabin again!
Amazing spot, close to everything. Cabin was spotless and felt brand new, like we were the first guests. Having the washer/dryer was a huge bonus. Spent three nights with our family of four (two adult kids, 20 and 22 yo), and it was perfect.Highly recommend it.
