The amenities this close to the park made this place the perfect stay!Property itself is quirky, and finding it in the dark without cell service is not something I’d recommend, but it was an excellent place for our Acadia trip!

We had a great stay and the house was clean and well-kept. We had a rainy day and made ample use of the puzzles and great connectivity for streaming services. We did have initial trouble finding the place but the host's detailed directions and pictures and very slow driving got us there eventually!

The host was quick to get back to me with any questions or concerns. I enjoyed the PDF format for information rather than looking through the profile for answers. Hope to be back.

This was the perfect place for our family. Our three daughters shared one room, and my wife and I the other. There is access to the bathroom from both rooms. The living room was comfortable to watch our Dawgs beat the Crimson Tide during our stay. Two minute drive to Seal Harbor beach, and five minute drive to Jordan Pond. Outstanding experience!

Michael is a great host. The cottage was as described and he was responsive to our requests. The cottage is located in a quiet neighborhood and is walking distance to Jordan pond and the carriage road system. Seal Harbor is a short walk in the opposite direction. Our experience was great. I look forward to staying here again in the future.

Our third stay here! This cottage is very conveniently located in Seal Harbor with quick access to Acadia on foot or by car. The sandy beach is a short walk down the street and is such a bonus. Very quiet location. Clean and comfortable with a nice floorplan for families. We'll be back next year!

When reviewing the guests books you can see many families spend season after season here and it’s easy to understand why! You immediately feel at home and peace when you walk in. The location is perfect to hit so many hikes and things to do around Acadia, it was easy to pop in and out as needed throughout the day and not waste a lot of time. Not to mention the place was SPOTLESS! The washer and dryer were also very helpful. It’s the perfect place.
