My husband, friend, dog and I all loved our stay here. The beds were extremely comfortable and the the house had everything we needed. Lots of basics in the pantry and plenty of kitchen tools, drip coffee maker, etc. The neighborhood is incredibly quiet, but Southwest harbor is just a short drive away with great restaurants and shops. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would recommend it to anyone. We loved exploring the quiet side of the island and did a lot of hiking, fishing, trail running, kayaking, and relaxing.

Wonderful Cottage

Our family had a great visit at this cozy cottage. We are glad we stayed near Bernard, much quieter than the Bar Harbor area. The cottage was clean, quiet and peaceful. The space was just right for our family of five. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here.

Very nice quiet place to stay. Comfortable, had everything we needed. Stayed with my husband, adult daughter and her husband. The couch was uncomfortable but the beds were super comfortable. The downstairs bedroom was super bright early in the morning.. like 5am, so I wish there were shades. Liked the solo stove outside, and my son in law grilled for us. Everything was clean and neat and in working order. Definitely would stay there again.

Perfect Acadia rental

My wife and I stayed at 14 Wicker Way with our two dogs and we loved this place. We got to explore the quiet side of the island and really enjoyed it. And you're just a short drive to Bar Harbor. The cottage is as advertised with everything we needed for our stay. We hope to stay here again when we visit next year.

Lovely and cozy

Lovely and quite cozy dog-friendly property, great jumping off spot for anything you want to do on Mount Desert Island. Definitely on the quiet side, which has its appeal. The house itself is tucked away behind several other houses but it does maintain its own sense of seclusion.

Love the Quietside

Enjoyed the house, it’s a nice spot, and it was well equipped with a relatively private yard. Nice that it was dog-friendly, as my daughter brought her dog up for the long weekend. The only negative was that the upstairs sleeping area got pretty warm on hot days.
