About this property

Quietside Studio w/ Fire Pit Near Acadia

Quietside Studio near Acadia National Park
Private fire pit • peaceful wooded setting • perfect for couples

Welcome to a cozy, thoughtfully designed studio on the Quietside of Mount Desert Island — just minutes from Acadia’s best hiking, biking, and coastal views.

After a day exploring, unwind by your private fire pit under the stars, surrounded by trees and fresh Maine air.

THE EXPERIENCE

This is a place to slow down.

Enjoy:
* A private fire pit with comfortable seating
* Peaceful wooded surroundings
* Evenings under the stars on the Quietside
* A calm retreat away from the crowds of Bar Harbor

THE SPACE

The studio is attached to our family home but has a private entrance and dedicated guest space.

Inside, you’ll find:
* A comfortable Nectar bed for restful nights
* A bright, clean studio layout
* A simple kitchenette for light meals
* A private bathroom

It’s designed to be simple, functional, and relaxing — perfect for couples or solo travelers.

OUTDOOR COOKING

We provide an electric Blackstone flat top grill (not a traditional BBQ), which is great for:
* Breakfast (eggs, pancakes, bacon)
* Simple dinners
* Quick meals after a long day exploring

*Important Notes (Please Read)
We want you to have the right expectations — this helps everyone have a great stay.

FAMILY HOME

This studio is attached to our home, and we have two young boys.
You will:
* Hear kids playing outside
* See normal family activity in the yard

We do our best to keep things respectful and quiet, especially in the evenings.

BATHROOM AND SINK

We have a macerating toilet that pumps out the toilet, shower and sink water automatically but you will hear it run when showering or flushing the toilet. There is a kitchen sink, but not one in the bathroom at the moment (we are adding that soon).

OUTDOOR SPACE

We are continuing to improve and finish the outdoor area (landscaping, etc.).

The fire pit and seating area are fully usable
Some areas of the yard are still natural/unfinished

We’ll be updating photos as improvements are completed.

My fiance and I stayed here for a few days and it was perfect for the two of us. It was small and cozy and had everything we needed as well as extremely clean and welcoming. Mike and Michelle took time to help us with some suggestions on local places to eat and the best places to hike. We were very close to a lot of things to do on the quiet side. I highly recommend staying here to anyone!
