Blackwoods Cottage,Eclectic Maine Cottage


WI-FI
Blackwood's Cottage is a restored Old Maine Cottage ideally located in the Heart of Acadia National Park, ideally located in the little Village of Otter Creek. We did add a large porch for outside enjoyment, this is our favorite place to relax...
This is our idea of a true " Maine summer cottage"
Restored and decorated with love. We can only stay for a few weeks a summer for now
we want to share it with your family and we hope you will find it as enjoyable as we have... It is ideally suited for a couple or a family of 4 . or for 2 couples to share. Or absolutely perfect for a Honeymoon Cottage!!Blackwoods Cottage is surrounded by Acadia Natioanl Park and just steps away from SouthRidge Trail to top of Cadillac Mountain and a short bike ride to
Jordan Pond House where you can hop on many of the best Carriage Trails for a
great ride or a hike to a mountain top, Kayak on the Jordan Pond
For your evening enjoyment we have a firepit in the backyard, just the perfect way to end you evening under the stars!

Great location! Everything in the description was on point! Got to meet Amanda (the host) because she was cleaning one of her other cottages - shows her vested interested in her cottages - easy to communicate with - she had lights on when we arrived making the cottage very welcoming - a great place to stay!

Delightful Historic Cottage

We had an absolutely delightful stay at this cottage. It has some old world quirks, which we thought made the home even more adorable. The location is perfect, the furniture is cozy and the firepit is just right. We'd love to stay here again!

Beautiful, historic home on a lovely lot in close proximity (about 15 minutes) to Bar Harbor. I could've spent all day long on the patio or around the fire pit. Be aware that the house is over 100 years old and therefore has a couple of quirks- the stairs are a bit steep, and the shower/tub is a little awkward as it has been converted from a clawfoot tub.

The Blackwoods Cottage is exactly as it appears in photos and the host is very thoughtful and attentive. There are plenty of fans available as well as a charging station at each bedside.The house was clean and well stocked with towels, pots/pans, utensils and dishes.I would recommend the Blackwoods Cottage to family and friends.

Cozy cabin close to trails

We had a wonderful time in this cozy home, which is situated close to the South Ridge Cadillac trail head. We enjoyed breakfasts on the porch and an evening around the fireside in the back yard under a starfilled night sky. Thank you!
