About this house rental

Our charming 2 bedroom cottage sits in Southwest Harbor on prestigious Clarke Point Road. It is across the street overlooking beautiful gardens with a view Of the harbor. It is situated halfway between the village and Beals Lobster Pound. Relax on the front deck for lunch or on the chaise lounge to read a book. Smell the salt air and enjoy peeks of lobster boats, sailboats, and the actions of a working harbor. The cottage is located right in town with sidewalks that meander down to the town dock, Two amazing lobster pounds with gorgeous views of the harbor, one of which is the famous Beals Lobster Pound. The historic Claremont Inn and gourmet restaurants are blocks away..No need for a car. You can walk to town and dine at gourmet restaurants, shop at upscale boutiques, specialty wine, cheese and historic Sawyers Market, a great library, and a playground for small children. You may also flag down the free Acadia Bus in front of the cottage for a ride to any part of the island: towns, hiking trails, movies. You can walk into town and rent a bike and load it up on the bus to be dropped off anywhere in route. The location allows for great independence for all, especially older children.

The property was perfect for our stay. Marilynn was wonderful and even helped with our dogs when we were out! The only negative is our stay wasn’t long enough!

Quiet street location; easy to walk to both dining and shopping. Also easy to drive to other areas of interest. Hosts had lots of books and other literature about the area available to read; they were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend this cottage.

My family throughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. There were no issues with the checkin/checkout process, and the description and pictures of the cottage were accurate. The cottage is within walking distance to downtown Southwest Harbor, and less than a half hour to the loop and Bar Harbor. The cottage was the perfect size for our family of four, and the owners did a nice job highlighting some places to eat/visit in the welcome book. I would not hesitate to stay there again!

Wonderful location walking distance to shops and restaurants, lobster and the water. Cute little town with friendly folks and great access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The host/owners were very helpful and gave us some tips on where to go and what to do. The cottage is perfect for up to 4 people who can share 1 bath. Well appointed with everything we needed and the Washer dryer were an added bonus

This cottage was perfect for our family of 4. Wonderful location, within walking distance to the marina and many restaurants. Clean and safe area with so much to do near by. We enjoyed staying in southwest harbor which is very close to the park, butich less busy then Bar Harbor. The hosts are helpful and have everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

We loved being in SW Harbor in this location...walkable to everything we wanted...Birds everywhere. Great recommendations from owner (who lives next door) on things to do and places to eat. This town is great because you are close to Acadia and Bar Harbor but it's way quieter and more peaceful for that Maine getaway. LOVED it and will stay here again on another visit!
