About the host
Hosted by Christie Dysart
Hi! My name is Christie Dysart. I have been fortunate enough to be a stay at home mom and am sending my eldest to college later this year. Six years ago we decided to purchase a summer cottage here in SWH. We'd been staying at my in-laws for many years prior to that. Our children are student athletes so we're not able to spend the whole summer at camp. In order to off-set costs we began renting our cottage. It was so successful that we booked fully and began looking for another so that we had a place to stay on the weekends. I now own 3 properties and manage 3 others. It's become a part-time job that I love! The guests that I've helped over the last 5-6 yrs. have been delightful! I'm so happy to be part of planning many families Maine summer vacations! Over the years we have made many friends and I see the same families year after year. I love my Job!!
Why they chose this property
This property is a bit unique. It's part of our marina complex. It's been housing for a boat captains family, a boat dealer's office and most recently the residence of one of our marina customers. It's the perfect location! Within walking distance to all area shopping and restaurants. Just steps from an amazing summer gallery of local lobster fishing boats and amazing cruising yachts! Acadia National Park completly surrounds SWH, Bass Harbor Head Light, Echo Lake, Somes Sound, Mt. Saviour, the list goes on. We are just 20-25 minutes away from all of the best park attractions such as Thunder Hole, Otter Cliffs, and Jordan Pond.
What makes this property unique
This quaint cottage is all about comfort, we have provided all of the perks of home comfort in an exciting local.
