This cottage is located in the best area for sight seeing in Acadia National Park! Just a few minutes away from park as well as shopping and restaurants! Cottage is everything we hoped for! Quiet area/ charming decor/ fully stocked kitchen plus a side porch with grill and front porch as well! The hosts were amazing! Very kind and easy to talk too! We are looking forward to another visit soon! Thank you Louise!
This cottage is as good as it gets for vacation rental at a reasonable price. It is super clean, very bright and has everything you need for your stay. Close to everything on MDI and you feel like you are a guest in someone's home. We have stayed in many cottages and cabins in our 50+ years of travel and this is one of the best. I would recommend this to anyone.
We loved our week here! Very comfortable for the three of us. Convenient to Acadia National Park which is why we came to Maine. The hosts were very responsive. Would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.
As other posters have mentioned, the rental is bigger than it looks online. Everything was very clean and comfortable (beds and furniture in the living room). It is located in the quieter part of MDI, but we preferred that. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to friends or family.

About the host
Hosted by Louise Soucy
Our family home is right next door. We are year-round residents of Southwest Harbor. Our children attend the local schools and we are deeply involved in many aspects of our community.
Why they chose this property
Easy access to all of MDI from the cottage. Bar Harbor is a 15 minute drive, the summit of Cadillac Mountain is 13 miles, and the pleasure of the quiet village of Southwest Harbor is a few minutes' walk away.
