Great place!

My husband and I stayed really enjoyed this property. It is on a small private lane just off the main road into Ellsworth. It was very clean, decorated nicely and had very comfortable furniture! We both agreed that it was one of the best that we have stayed in, and we travel a fair amount. If we are in the area in the future, we would definitely book again!

Wooded Retreat Home

We spent 3 nights and would highly recommend this property. The home was spotless! Also had anything we might need while cooking, relaxing or doing laundry. Outdoor deck had comfy chairs to sit and read. Approximately 20 miles from Acadia, stores and restaurants nearby. Don’t look any further, you will love it.

Wonderful place for a quiet retreat

Thank you, Kelley, for your hospitality! The cottage is great! Very quiet and comfortable, clean and spacious, and cozy at the same time. The kitchen is very well equipped for stay at home dinner, and everything one needs to pack a good snack for a day's hike. The location is very convenient as well, within easy drive to all the wonderful destinations. We loved staying here for the second year in a row and will love to come back again. Thank you again, Eugene and Marina

Private wooded retreat

We enjoyed our stay at the Wooded Retreat. It was very clean, neat and spacious. It had a well equipped kitchen and laundry area which we appreciated. It was a great location, private and away from the crowds, yet easy to get to everything.

First Visit to Maine

You won’t find a rental house cleaner and better stocked with all you could need than Kelly’s house! We had the best time visiting Acadia and the surrounding area. The location was convenient without being in the middle of the crowds. We’ve stayed in many rentals over the years and this was by far the best!

Convenient to get to Acadia from here, and we loved the privacy and quiet location away from all the other tourists. The hospitality and communication from the host was excellent!
