Fantastic cottage with everything we could ask for, especially a great location for exploring Acadia Nat'l Park, Bar Harbor, and all the area's natural beauty. Very comfortable, and would definitely stay here again. Two good restaurants within easy walking distance was a definite plus.

This property was extremely clean!! It was located in the best location. The property also supplied a few necessities which was nice because you can’t always bring the things you need if you fly. I felt safe and comfortable. I look forward to booking this house again in the future.

Great place to stay. It was clean and as advertised. The location was only .3 miles from the hills cove park entrance. Buses available to take you anywhere. We really enjoyed the fire pit in the evening. 2 restaurants within walking distance and Frenchmen’s Bay/hulls Cove right across the street. Perfect for our weeks vacation, lobster eating, and park activities.

Such a charming cottage and the location cannot be beat! To be able to walk to Acadia, be adjacent to two solid restaurants, a coffee shop, and a lovely wine store, and to watch the sun rise over Frenchmen's Bay was beyond magical. The owner was prompt with responding to our few logistical questions, and we could not have had a better stay. Thank you!

Great location

Second time we stayed at this location and its proximity to Acadia and the town of Bar Harbor allows for relaxation as well as shopping and hiking as needed. The view from the lawn seating of the bay is ideal.

Lovely Cottage near Bar Harbor

This is a lovely little gem of a property just outside of Bar Harbor in the Hulls Cove area. Place is immaculate - and it was the perfect base to explore Acadia National Park and the entire Mt Desert Island area.

This rental is a gem! The location is excellent, offering a quiet neighborhood while being incredibly convenient to both Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park.The house was clean and equipped with many amenities, including a large TV for relaxing evenings and a peaceful ocean view during the day. We appreciated the comfort of the soft beds after long days of hiking. Highly recommend this comfortable and perfectly located home base!
