We stayed here for a week and felt so comfortable in our home away from home. Amanda is a wonderful host who answered questions promptly. The cottage is clean and well stocked. The location is perfect for exploring both Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We couldn’t be happier with our stay.

If you are looking for the perfect place to stay, this is the place. Not only was this beautiful home clean, it was comfortable, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we needed. Located in a quiet neighborhood, we were a quick drive to Acadia and bar harbor. Amanda is an incredible host. I wish there was a way to give a six star rating!

Home to our engagement!

We both thought the place was cute, yet roomy enough for the two of us. It is a nice quiet neighborhood. Our third evening we got engaged by the fire pit. Thanks for keeping your place clean and organized.

Thank you so much for your kind words—and congratulations! We’re honored that Summerwood Cottage was part of such a special moment in your lives. Getting engaged by the fire pit under the Maine sky sounds absolutely magical. Our quiet corner of the island, surrounded by Acadia’s natural beauty, has a way of creating unforgettable memories, and we’re so happy it became part of your story. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, adventure, and more cozy fireside moments!
