About this house rental
Cregboy Cottage is a 650 sqft home, located on beautiful Mount Desert Island, Maine. It is situated on the “Quiet Side” of Acadia National Park, and offers easy access to hiking, kayaking and biking.
Within walking distance of 3 different ponds and hikes up Western Mountain and Little Notch, you won’t even have to get in your car to experience the beauty that this area has to offer.
The cottage is within 10 miles drive of Bass Harbor Lighthouse, hikes on Wonder Land and Ships Harbor and the cozy Year round village of Southwest Harbor.
My home was originally built in 1896, and although not perfect (let’s face it, most houses have their quirks), offers a cozy retreat for couples or two friends wishing to explore the area. I have lots of amenities that are listed, but this year I will also be adding a whole house generator, so you can enjoy your stay and never have worry about being without power.
Originally from Galway Ireland, I have made MDI my home for the past 34 years. Cregboy Cottage has over the years, become a wee bit of Ireland in DownEast Maine. A mixture of my own heritage and the Country/State that has stolen my heart.
I look forward to hosting you, and showing you why the State of Maine’s slogan is “The way life should be”. And don’t be at all surprised if it doesn’t steal your heart too.
7 night minimum from Friday to Friday. Check out @ 11 am., check in @ 5pm.

This lovely and well supplied cottage was the perfect home base for our Acadia adventures. Coming back to Cora’s thoughtfully curated cottage and helpful communications truly felt like coming home. We had a wonderful week exploring Acadia! And Cora is a consummate host! One of the best places we have stayed.

The cottage was incredible! Extremely clean and well maintained. Cora, the host, was extremely detail oriented in equipping the property with everything necessary to enhance your stay. Of particular note was the kitchen, very well stocked with modern appliances. The location of the cottage is also a plus, as it is away from the crowded side of Mount Desert Island. Even the parking was convenient, right outside the cottage. Cora is a kind, caring person, and is enthusiastic in making you feel welcome. My visit was very enjoyable!

Cora’s is the perfect host and her place is perfect for active couples who want to enjoy Acadia National Park. The cottage has everything to make your stay comfortable. It is her home in the winter, therefore every item that you could need is there for your use. She even has some food there for you. We fell in love with the cottage, it’s location and, yes, Cora!

The property was adorable-it was extremely clean, comfortable and had anything plus more you would expect from a rental. It was a perfect place to stay for exploring Acadia NP and the surrounding areas. The host was very accommodating and was very quick to respond with any questions or concerns.

My husband and I had a wonderful week on Mt Desert Island. Cregboy Cottage was perfect and we loved staying on the quiet side of the island. The cottage is perfect and Cora is a thoughtful and helpful host. She has thought of every amenity for a comfortable stay. We really enjoyed meeting her and staying in her lovely cottage and hope to be back someday!

Great cottage close to the attractions of Acadia National Park and Mount Desert Island harbors. It was not far enough to have some privacy as well.
Sitting on the deck you can observe to local flora and fauna. Several bird species passed through as well as several deer. Temperatures were always comfortable.
The cottage has a good layout and was well stocked with cookware as well as some local coffee and cheeses to have as a snack.
We would stay again.

This sweet little cottage was perfect for our stay. Cora was an amazing host. She thought of everything from incidentals in the bathroom to all the cooking spices you would need in the kitchen. There is a warmth and comfort that was just perfect for our girls trip. Cora was so sweet and always available for questions. I highly recommend this stay on the quiet side of Acadia. Such a cozy spot.
