We loved everything about our stay! The home was absolutely beautiful and had everything we needed and more! This trip was just my husband and I and our two daughters, 10 and 7, even though we had originally thought my parents might be coming with us. It would've accommodated all of us for sure, but was very roomy for just the 4 of us. Our girls loved staying in the two bedrooms downstairs that kind of connect and make their own special space, and my husband and I had one of the two beautiful rooms upstairs. We loved having those upstairs porches- they were perfect for sunsets and stargazing!
Our kids loved going out on the rocks and venturing into the tidal cove when they could- lots of snails and crabs to observe! And we loved that the water was right there out our window- the breezes coming in off the water were lovely.
All four of us can't wait to stay here again, and we definitely will!

We arrived to a beautiful location on the water, clean and pristine gardens and a warm and welcoming house that immediately felt like home. From the grandparent to the four year old, everyone found their nook and corner. The hosts were most accommodating and the location ideal for anyone who wants peace and quiet but in driving proximity to all the must see sights. We hope to come back again. Thank you to our wonderful hosts. The Hadi Family

This place is huge. My family and I stayed here for 4 days, it was seven of us. There is plenty of room to hangout, an outside area big enough for games too. Close drive to Bar Harbor, and plenty of good places to eat nearby. I highly recommend staying here for big groups.

This is an amazing property with a large yard on the inlet/bay. We had three kids with us, ages 8, 10, and 16. We had fun playing wiffle ball, football, jenga, etc in the yard. The house has two great suites (king and queen) on the 2nd floor, plus two bedrooms on the first floor. Each room has a tv. Large kitchen with chairs around island and large dining table that we used each morning for breakfast. Echo Lake was near by and the kids swam in the lake - water felt great. About 20 minutes from Bar Harbor, which was not a bad drive. Hikes at Sand Beach, Thunder Hole, Cadillac Mountain, Jordan Pond, and Flying Mountain Loop in Acadia were the spots we went too. We stayed for 3 full days, which was not enough time - need a whole week to see everything. Stacy was so great to work with and very responsive. Could not ask for a better host. My husband told me to reserve for next year already.

The house was amazing. Honestly, it’s even better than the pictures. It had everything we could have ever needed.
The tidal pond in the back was great as were the sunsets. We couldn’t picked a better house for our group for a Maine getaway!

We enjoyed our stay. It was myself, husband, my sister and my 93 year old dad. It was perfect for him. All his rooms on 1st floor. We were visiting my daughter and her husband and our new granddaughter and we were 10 minutes from them. It was wonderful.

We enjoyed the location: close to Echo Lake and associated hiking, nice roads for running (ran on the fire road also) Fun places to get groceries and meals nearby.
House was outfitted with everything we needed, and everyone slept well.
Loved watching the tide!
We communicated to the owner that we would arrive in the middle of the night - arrived to find all of the lights on in the house so we could find bedrooms and bathrooms quickly and safely - we really appreciated that!

We were very pleased when we walked in the door of this special home at this very special location. The house had plenty of room for our family of 8. It was very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

The place exceeded our expectations. It's lovely and roomy for our group of 6, especially the 2 rooms upstairs. The common area was also nice and the view was beautiful even though it mostly rainy during our stay.

5.0 / 5.0
We visit the Mt. Desert Island area almost every year, and had not previously stayed in a private home. Our host provided a pack and play for our 15 m/o and our teenager got a beautiful big room with a private bath and viewing porch all to herself. This is probably the way we will stay in the area moving forward as it provides great comfort and flexibility.
Property had a beautiful view of the harbor, lush grass, beautifully manicured gardens, even a peach tree with plenty of fruit for the kids to enjoy.
There were many areas to sit, both indoors and out to enjoy the view. There was a gas grill, a coffee maker, great kitchen with the utensils and dishes required for our breakfasts and snacks and certainly for preparing full meals.
A lot of work has been out into this property and it shows.
Washer and dryer are new and everything is newly renovated. A/C and easy to open windows. Smart TVs and internet.
Very convenient to Southwest Harbor and Acadia, and very private and quiet.
Our only wish is that we had booked more than three nights and there was a little less rain during our stay so we could have enjoyed the grounds more.
Host, Stacy, was very responsive and professional.
Note: Bring toilet paper and paper towel if you plan to stay more than a night or two.

The property exceeded our expectations. Luxury for the extended family. Ideal for elderly parents with two bedrooms, bath, and laundry on the first floor. Great view into Bass Harbor with tidal waters at the edge of the property that attract seabirds and Herons.

MDI Paradise
Mount Dessert Island is a lovely location for a summer vacation if you enjoy seafood and the outdoors. Rental was located in a nice quiet area with near by access to a small grocery store and multiple restaurants. House is beautiful, well furnished and has a great yard for poutdoor activities.

Sweet Retreat
From the moment we walked in the door, the entire family was taken back by the pure beauty of the home and grounds. We were so pleasantly surprised by all of the updates. We truly felt it was our home away from home for our entire vacation. We enjoyed the added furniture that allowed all 6 adults to hang out for meals, games, and much needed down time/ relaxation. Watching the tide fluctuations and harbor life, and enjoying the beautiful landscaping was definitely a favorite of mine (the open views from the many windows, patio, and porch are breathtaking). Stacy provided detailed and quick responses to my questions prior to our arrival, and was extremely kind in providing new hairdryers when I had asked if they were available. I was even fortunate enough to meet the owner during his early morning visits to check on new sod and continued landscaping improvements during our stay. We were not bothered by this as the worker and the owner both tried to be very discreet/ quiet/ non-intrusive. We had one minor concern, and Stacy was quick to respond, remediate and follow-up with us the following day. Everyone in our family loved this location on the quiet side,, the home, and the property. We all hope to come back again! (This is a huge accomplishment considering we are all somewhat particular and always have high expectations!!). THANK YOU!

The house had a perfect setting. The house was well equipped for cooking & relaxing. The grounds were filled with wonderful plants & shrubs--like a magazine. All great!

Great house!
My family and I stayed here recently and were extremely impressed with this house. It had been recently renovated, so the house is now even nicer than the photos included with the listing. The location is great - very quiet and secluded feeling, but with ready access to nearby restaurants and Southwest Harbor. There is plenty of room for everyone to gather together or to have their own space as needed. We'll definitely return here next time our plans take us to Acadia.

Better than the Listing
My group of 4 adults had such a pleasant stay at this listing. The check-in process was easy and Covid-friendly. House and property are much bigger in person and the place is decorated very well. Kitchen was very well stocked so we were able to cook dinner and breakfast. Located 30 min away from Acadia Ntnl Park Visitor Center, it was a great location for us away from crowds.

Great Property. More than advertised. Close enough the fray. Far away enough for some peace and quite.
My wife was coveting the Kitchen in every way.

Quiet, Lovely, and Right on the Water
We had a group of six adults from our family all staying together at this house on MDI. The house was nicer in person than the listing photos make it seem! It was nice having ample bedrooms but also some common areas to lounge and spend time together in. Being able to walk out and enjoy the water front and see how different it looks as the tides go in and out was a pleasure.
Despite being maybe half an hour from Bar Harbor proper this property is still close to restaurants and a grocery store in the surrounding towns. There are also hikes nearby that are part of the National Park only 15 minutes drive away. As a bonus of the location is that it was quiet and peaceful, especially at night!
We loved this house and could see ourselves staying there the next time we go back to MDI!

Loved This House
This house was in a great location being 30 minutes from the Visitor Center at Acadia. We loved being close to Southwest Harbor for restaurants and activities. The house itself was wonderful. We loved sitting outside on the deck each morning and evening along with the enclosed sunroom. Everything needed was provided especially in the kitchen. We even saw deer on the property. We would happily stay here again!

Perfect Spot on the Quiet Side
Our family enjoyed an outstanding stay on Ann's Point in early August. The owners greeted us warmly when we arrived. The house was beautifully appointed and very comfortable. Everything we needed for our stay was available and up to date. You can not beat the location. It's a great place to just sit back, relax and watch the world unfold as the tides change. Breathtaking sunsets! It is very close to restaurants and shopping in SW Harbor and Bass Harbor. We were able to explore all that Acadia has to offer in the high season without getting caught up in the crowds. Highly recommended!

Amazing and wonderful "quiet side" cottage
This is an amazing property that satisfies at every level. Water views, gourmet kitchen, beautifully appointed, tasteful gardens surround house, comfortable and quiet property within 8 mins of downtown Southwest Harbor. A quick ride to Bass Harbor lighthouse. Perfect quiet and comfortable property. We will most definitely return.

Great Place
The house was just as advertised, on the quiet side of the island (which we were looking for) and had all the amenities we needed.
