Everything was in perfect order, spotless, and extremely comfortable. The area is beautiful and close to Acadia with a trail within walking distance. The harbor, restaurants and shops are 10 minutes from the house. Ben (the host) directions to the house, and recommendations to all activities were excellent. I would love to stay again if I'm ever in this area of Maine.

Wonderful Week in Southwest Harbor

This was our 2nd time visiting Caleb's Cottage and the 2nd time that our family loved out stay. Our sons *(7 & 2) loved having access to the water using the dock and kayak's that we had rented. The house is very comfortable and has allowed our family to create wonderful memories. Being so close to Flying Mountain, the Causeway Club and the new Mini Golf course made the week even better.

Great Stay

Our family really enjoyed staying at Caleb's Cottage. It was comfortable, spacious, and had all the comforts of home. The view from the lovely front porch is beautiful and we loved drinking our coffee in the morning and gathering there to relax after our day exploring Acadia National Park. As seniors we were able to walk from the cottage to "Flying Mountain" where we hiked to the top and back. This property is only about a 20-minute drive to Bar Harbor and other scenic spots in Acadia National Park. We had a great stay!

Beautiful location, beautiful cottage

This was our first visit to Caleb's Cottage and we were so thrilled to pull up and see the house we had hoped for was really ours for a few days! The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was well furnished as was the laundry room. Sitting on the porch with a mug of coffee was the best! So close to Acadia- some trails within walking distance. We love to come back.

A perfect getaway

Peaceful and Perfect GetawayWe had a wonderful stay at Caleb’s Cottage in Southwest Harbor. The cabin was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing week. It was the perfect place to come back to after long days of hiking and biking in Acadia.We enjoyed cooking big breakfasts, packing lunches for the trail, and spending quiet evenings playing games or relaxing by the dock. Watching the jellyfish drift by in the peaceful harbor was an unexpected highlight.Ben was a great host, and we’d happily recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a quiet retreat with easy access to outdoor adventures.

Coastal Relaxation

Cabin on steroids - new, clean, but maintains the feel of an old seaside summer cabin. Sitting on the deck, sipping a beverage, watching the tide go in and out - just what we needed.

Best location and beautiful view

Most beautiful location. Loved having access to the dock. The house has everything you need especially lots of kid friendly toys and games. The beds are very soft, so if you like a firmer bed, you need to know!

Wonderful place for a getaway

Everything was great. Such a warm and homey feel. The only downside is the front steps are very slippery in the morning. Warn others to be careful as I slipped and fell down the steps

Third Visit to Caleb's Cottage

This is our 3rd time staying here. Our family loves it! Looking out at the cove is so beautiful and peaceful. We hike, we rent a kayak for the week, we go to Echo Lake, we enjoy dinner at the Little Fern restaurant at the Clairmont Hotel. We played 9 holes of golf this year at the club down the street. Lots of hiking within walking distance from the cottage. The cottage is very clean and the kitchen is stocked with everything you need. The pictures are exactly how the cottage looks - beautiful. Ben is great and responsive.

Excellent Place to Stay

The cottage was very well stocked- all the comforts of home. Southwest Harbor is a great, quiet area, but with 5-6 very good reasonably priced restaurants and excellent local seafood, including Beal's Lobster Pier- a must for lobster lovers. Practically walk to Flying Mountain in Acadia National Park, and a great hike! Also great lake swimming at Echo Lake (in Acadia). Only negatives- Bar Harbor is a solid 25 minute drive each way (this was July, with some traffic), the house had a great cabin type feel, lots of knotty pine, but it did creak quite a bit when you walked around. Otherwise, a million dollar view of the cove and a great experience!

Wonderful "family" vacation

Our three generation "family" spent a wonderful week at Caleb's Cottage. The cabin is spacious and the amenities were more than we expected - linens, towels, laundry, dishes, spices, games, small appliances, you name it, it was there. Loved enjoying our morning tea/coffee on the front porch. The cabin was spotlessly clean upon arrival. We all got to do something special during our stay and we did all the activities together - hiking, biking, kayaking, car museum. logging show, boat trip around island, magic show, sea glass hunting, miniature golfing, shopping, and the list goes on. Was wonderful to spend time enjoying the view and spend time with the "family".

Caleb's Cottage is Picture Perfect

We recently completed a week-long stay at Caleb's Cottage. The cottage, the setting, the location were all perfect. The house was very well laid out, we had 3 adults and 2 kids. There was easily room for another 2-3 adults. The cottage was very well stocked with all the necessities. We took full advantage of the deep water dock and had kayaks delivered to the cottage for use during the week. The sunsets over the cove and distant mountains were simply spectacular. The location was very convenient to SW Harbor shops, restaurants and grocery store. You're also located right next to Acadia NP (Flying Mountain). The setting, while close to SW Harbor, is private and quiet. The kids loved riding their bikes along Connor Pt and playing in the rocks during low tide. We also had some very competitive wiffle ball games in the side yard. While the cottage is great, we spent most of our time on the dock and expansive front porch. You will not go wrong by considering Calab's cottage for your visit to Acadia. Thanks, Reagan Family

A beautiful well stocked vacation spot

This was a beautiful, sparkly clean, well stocked home- linens and dishes, pots and pans (our adult children baked and cooked great meals) dishwasher, washer and dryer, good books, games, sundries were all provided. There were open shelves and large airy spaces and lots of windows, which made the house even nicer. We enjoyed home-made cinnamon buns on the porch one sunny morning. There was a dock and a view of the water that was peaceful and quintessentially Maine. The only reason that this is not a 5 is that it was a little tricky to find, (no one's GPS got it right) and the road is a bit narrow and dark at night; I was concerned when our children were arriving late in the evening. And, although part of our group hiked directly from the house onto great trails, the villagers among us needed to get into a car to visit a town. Also, through no fault of our gracious host, the internet was spotty at best, and sometimes did not work at all. Because we were 6 adults (some were working remotely), we tended to overload the demand. But this is a fabulous home, and we all felt grateful that we got to experience Acadia while staying here. Acadia, by the way, is also a great destination!

Perfect Getaway

My wife and I, along with another couple, stayed at Calebs Cottage for a week. Everything about the stay was wonderful. The view overlooking the water from the porch and lawn is incredible. We had a great time grilling out in the lawn, eating at the picnic table, and watching a seal from the Adirondack chairs. We even saw a deer walk through the yard one day!The cottage itself is beautiful; fairly new, and well maintained. The bedrooms are all plenty big. The kitchen has everything you'd need to cook meals as if you were at home. The appliances, bedding, and furniture are all top notch. A small but nice flat screen TV is provided with Direct TV. Internet is also available over wifi in the cottage.The location is excellent. We appreciated staying in Southwest Harbor, the "quiet side" of Mount Desert Island. It is a 25 minute drive to downtown Bar Harbor, but we didn't find that to be a problem for us. There is a full service grocery store within walking distance, and a nice town center with a few great restaurants and shops within a few miles. Also within walking distance is a piece of Acadia National Park with a number of hiking trails that provided excellent views.The owner was extremely helpful and has done a great job making sure everything is in order for renters. It was professionally cleaned and prepared (beds made, linens set out etc) prior to our arrival.Overall, this place is a real gem and we highly recommend it! If and when our vacation plans bring us back to Acadia in the future, we will definitely stay at Calebs Cottage.

Love at first sight

Immediately fell in love with this cottage. Location, location, location! This beautiful house was situated in just the area right for us and what we were looking for. Saw a lot of the area during our stay, all very nice, but I couldn't imagine having stayed anywhere else. What a relaxing retreat to come back to after our hikes; to sit on the porch, play in the yard, to hang out on the dock...we felt simply at peace. A fully stocked kitchen, comfy beds, linens and towels, and a provided for laundry room, fans, and so much more-so convenient to have and not have brought from home-we didn't have another inch of space in the car if we had needed to bring any of the things already provided...thank you! Excellent communication with Ben, who provided local info and suggestions, in paper and email form, both useful and appreciated, and who responded promptly to all questions we had. Enjoyed so many hikes in Acadia, shops, restaurants, and whale watching in Bar Harbor, a trip to Bass Harbor, and Beal's in Southwest Harbor. My highlights: sunrise on Cadillac Mountain, a very early, quiet morning on Sand Beach, sitting on the rocks along Ocean Path while taking in the beautiful views, watching the stars while sitting on the dock at the cottage, fulfilling my dream of roadside lobster at Charlotte's, having my first popover at Jordan's Pond House, and discovering Maine blueberries at Jordan's Restaurant and Cottage Street Bakery and Restaurant! This cottage and its location and all of the surrounding areas was all I'd dream my Maine vacation would be; my first and certainly not my last. Thank you Ben and the Foote family!
