    Birthday & Anniversary Weekend
    If anything, the property listing doesn't fully capture how much space is available. We were surprised at how big the property was! The whole place is clean and nicely decorated and we loved the kitchen especially. The location is also good, not too long of a drive to get to anything you want to do on the island. Highly recommended!

    Lovely Cottage - It Felt Like Visiting Family
    Vacation rental homes can sometimes feel a bit sterile, with furniture and decorations cobbled together from bargain stores. This property instead felt like we were being welcomed to stay at a favorite aunt and uncle’s home, with good quality furnishings, bedding, etc... It was cozy, warm, and comfortable in every aspect. It doesn’t feel cheap, but more like no expense was spared. Communication was also great - we had an issue with the TV and I messaged the host. The reply was almost instant, with another to have it replaced within a few hours. Proximity to Acadia was nice as well. It’s about a half hour drive to Bar Harbor and a 5 minute drive a couple short hikes along the coast. It’s also just a 5 minute drive to the Bass Harbor lighthouse, which is uncrowded and a gorgeous place to welcome the sunrise. I would stay here again and highly recommend this property.

    Not so Shabby Chic
    This is a neat well managed property. It has a Shabby chic decor that is well done. Located in the more remote southwest Harbor area it allows great access to this part of the island. We had a nice time and would come back to stay again. Thanks so much.
