“This is very clean, well-accomodated, and in a great location!” Our family just returned from a week in this great cabin. We wanted to be very close to acadia National Park, but not in a busy area. The location was perfect for this. The cabin is within walking distance of a small town with great restaurants and stores, and a very short drive (some 5 minutes, some 10 minutes, some 15 minutes) to all the sights of the national park. And when you return to the cabin you experience its quiet and natural setting at its best. It was rejuvenating to be there. The owners have obviously taken a lot of time and effort to make their home user-friendly. It comes equipped with everything you need for cooking and relaxing. Everything is clean and cared for, and the entire cabin has a cozy yet spacious feel to it. Very highly recommended!

“quiet, relaxed and restful, but fun” The location on the quiet side of the island was great. Fun to visit the lobster house, and car museum. Close enough for access to national park, Bar Harbour and nearby attractions. Acadia is obviously unique and beautiful. Location provides good privacy with good access.

Seaside Cottage, 3 BRs, Private Beach, Great Views
Southwest Harbor cottage
3 bedrooms / 3 bathrooms / sleeps 7
“Great week at Seaside Cottage” Everything was wonderful. The house is very comfortable, plenty of room for our family of 5 (3 kids ages 5, 10, 12). The kids loved spending time exploring the cove. Only thing that could have been added would have been a dvd player (kids would have liked to watch a movie in the evening). There were plenty of family games availabe, though, along with the ping pong table. The location is very calm and peaceful, but be aware that to get to anything you will need to drive (we added a couple of hundred miles to our car driving to Bar Harbor, various trails in acadia, etc.). Despite this, we would return to this house if we ever travel to this area again.

“Beachcomber's Paradise” Blue Heron Tide was a wonderful set up for our large family (7 adults and one toddler). We all fit very comfortably, with some folks getting up early to walk the beach and others staying up late to play cards. The space is nice enough to feel like you are on a nice vacation and not so nice that you fear for a toddler touching everything. The beach access is also amazing. We had a few beachcombers in the group, and they never tired of finding shells and sea glass on the beach. This is a truly special spot.

“We had a great vacation experience at Cliffside..” We had a marvelous time during our stay at Cliffside and thoroughly enjoyed our trip and the use of this beautiful home with our friends. It was a great location-close to the park and town, but nestled amongst the trees for relaxing privacy. We saw deer behind the house several mornings and took some great pictures of a hawk perched in the tree just beyond our deck. The trails behind the house and Sand Point Road were convenient for morning hiking and jogging. Several mornings we enjoyed our coffee on the decks with their peaceful views of the bay. This lovely home provided a great base for visiting Bar Harbor and acadia- whale watching, visits to Cadillac Mountain, Sand Beach, Thunder Hole, and the Thuya Gardens. We hiked around Jordan Pond and enjoyed the tea and popovers, visited Schoodic Peninsula, and took a carriage tour of the bridges. We really appreciated Bonnie's suggestions for dining and activities to enjoy, and everything went very smoothly from beginning to end. The weather was great and we had a wonderful time.

“Close to Nirvana” It would be difficult to find a better spot for spending a vacation than the Quietside of Mt. Desert, and the Gray Barn experience is part of the fun. The accomodations are modern and in great shape, and the windows both have a great view over upper Bass Harbor and give great air circulation. Access to cellphone and internet coverage is a convenience. The kitchen is very functional, though you'll want to visit the lobster pounds and restaurants in the area. A perfect base for hiking in acadia National Park. The week we were there was perfect for using the owner's kayaks in the upper harbor and the estuary beyond. We've stayed three different years and will be happy to return.

Hot Tub! AIR CONDITIONING! Fire Pit! Views of Somes Sound & Acadia National Park
Mount Desert cottage
2 bedrooms / 1 bathroom / sleeps 7
“Absolutely fantastic!” We had a fantastic stay at The acadia. We were probably some of the first tourists of the season (mid april) and it was pretty chilly, so the hot tub was a very welcome amenity. The owners were wonderful, taking the time to show us around upon arrival and even brought over a new grill right away when we realized the original wasn't working. The cottage was just the right size for four people--cozy but comfortable. Everything was very clean and the views were beautiful. We cooked our own lobster and ate out on the deck on night. Another night we had a fire in the fire pit and drank wine and roasted marsh-mellows. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone heading to acadia.

“Perfect get-away home.” You can't beat a quiet morning cup of coffee on the deck overlooking the bay and watching the lobstermen hauling in their traps. The beautiful starry night skies are also an amazing sight. This spacious lodge had more amenities than we dreamed of. Peaceful and secluded with a gorgeous view but close to many antique shops, Acadia N.P., Bar Harbor, places to buy lobsters, and other attractions. Something for everyone! We often saw Bald Eagles on our way down the long driveway. On the morning that we had to leave, I stood on the deck gazing across the water, and was joined 1 by 1 by each member of our family, each of us having the same thought- we did not want to leave! We would highly recommend this rental and hope to return some day!

“Heaven on Earth !” We have traveled and stayed in the Chalet many times. It is our # 1 place to be. We go in the winter time and have made many memories there. Brenda Harp always aims to please and is very accommodating. The Chalet sits by itself in an amazing woods with amazing views of the Bay. We have seen seal, eagles, and deer to name a few. The sunsets there are the best I've seen in my life. We have made many many special and life long memories there and would Highly recommend it. 10 or more stars. Jon and Charleen
