12 days in "downtown" Winter Harbor late August. Easy access to Schoodic Peninsula hike, bike, ocean, ocean, ocean! Homeowner very accessible and easy to work with.

Fantastic house and hosts. We loved that we could walk to visit the harbor, go out to dinner, cycle through the national park, and enjoy every minute. Loved sitting on the back deck, enjoying the view, grilling, and relaxing. Anne and John were great hosts. We’d love to come back.

Wonderful, cute cottage close by the Schoodic Peninsula part of Acadia National Park. It's much quieter and relaxing here in Winter Harbor. It's a nice location to just visit close by attractions or venture farther out like we did to Bar Harbor, and then make a sightseeing trip another day in the other direction to Lubec, Maine on the border of Canada. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were comfortable. Check-in was a breeze, and the hosts John & Anne were very accommodating. We had a very nice stay here.

Stayed with family in John and Anne’s cottage. Everything was just as described and check in couldn’t be easier. Perfectly located within walking distance of several restaurants and ferry and short drive to Schoodic Acadia and farmers market just across the street on Tuesday. Would definitely stay there again. Only suggestion would be to update some of the information in the book for 2024 as it seems there have been some post-Covid changes to local businesses.

Property was very nice. We had a little difficulty finding the cottage as we arrive late at night and it was dark. The house number was on the house and not the cottage as we could not see the cottage as we drove up. the downstairs bathroom did have a funky smell to it. we love the fact that we could walk to everything and the restaurants were wonderful. I would highy encourage the ferry to bar harbor.
