Very peaceful stay in lovely woods

Extremely secluded and well-designed/curated apartment near Somesville— with easy access to all of Acadia- great swimming options and hikes nearby. We loved everything about this special place.

My 84 year old father and I had a delightful stay in this beautifully modern and extremely clean apartment. Great proximity to other family staying in Somesville, at Mt Desert Campground - and in Manset. The ride into Bar Harbor etc is not far at all. Kira was so accomodating but at the same time respected our privacy. The grounds are gorgeous and the approach to the house is wonderfully 'Maine'.Definitely looking to rebook for next year!

Lovely retreat on the quiet side of Mt Desert Island]

We stayed here for a visit to Mt Desert Island. The apartment is located away from the crowds, but not a long drive to get anywhere. It had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable and it was just what we needed after hiking/sightseeing during the day.

We had a wonderful stay in this quiet, peaceful cabin, perfectly nestled in a beautiful wooded area. The décor is nicely done, reflecting Maine’s beaches, mountains, lakes, and forests — it gives the home a true sense of place.The cabin was super clean and well-kept, with handy amenities like a washer and dryer. The grill, though small, worked well, and the cooktop was fairly efficient once it warmed up. A couple of small touches would make it even better — drink coasters and a few more cup towels.The location is excellent — close to Acadia National Park and not far from Bar Harbor. That said, we found ourselves especially enjoying Southwest Harbor with its great restaurants and Northeast Harbor with its charming, unpretentious village feel.Overall, a peaceful and comfortable retreat in a beautiful setting. We’d be happy to return!

Perfect getaway

Great location, relaxing home and property. The beds were super comfy and lots of space to spread out in living area. We were close enough to get anywhere very easily but still enjoy the quiet at night.

The Perfect Maine Stay

This was the perfect place to stay! Great location for everything to see on Mount Desert Island, and close to Acadia National Park! Nestled in the quiet woods, the owner takes great care of the home.

Quiet Charming Stay for Honeymoon

My wife and I stayed at this location for our honeymoon and we enjoyed it greatly. The property is the downstairs portion of the renters home and they were very helpful throughout the stay. Due to a storm we briefly lost power but the owners were very helpful and considerate during that brief time.
