About this house rental

Discover the quiet and Downeast charm found in the quaint village of Bernard, a small working village near Bass Harbor which is home to some of Mt. Desert Island's favorite destinations. Thurston's Lobster Pound and sweet little "Back Beach" are both within walking distance to this home, set off the main road, in a quiet semi-wooded setting at the end of a short lane with few neighboring properties. Small, recently updated, newly furnished for 2022, and ready for your visit, little Wicker Way Cottage is a great find for your Acadia adventure!

FIRST FLOOR: Entry leads into a small mudroom for outdoor gear and shoes. Kitchen with table that seats 4 to 5 comfortably is positioned next to a sunny window for the morning sun. Living Room with flat-screen Smart TV leads into a Bedroom with Queen bed. Full Bath with combined tub and shower also includes a laundry area and has two entrances, one from the Master Bedroom, and one from the main Living Area. Living Area also features a heat pump that serves as an AC unit sufficient to cool the main living area. Window fans are available for the second floor and master bedroom for where the heat pump might struggle to reach.

Lovely and quite cozy dog-friendly property, great jumping off spot for anything you want to do on Mount Desert Island. Definitely on the quiet side, which has its appeal. The house itself is tucked away behind several other houses but it does maintain its own sense of seclusion.

We really loved this place. It was quiet, clean, and well equipped. It had everything we needed for nearly a week. We cooked in all of our meals in the kitchen, slept very well, and appreciated the location - both quiet, but also easy to get to everywhere we wanted to in the area including the Schoodic peninsula, Deer Isle, Bar Harbor and all over the main part of Acadia. Communication with the property manager was easy and quick and she was very helpful throughout. Check in and out was easy. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed the house, it’s a nice spot, and it was well equipped with a relatively private yard. Nice that it was dog-friendly, as my daughter brought her dog up for the long weekend. The only negative was that the upstairs sleeping area got pretty warm on hot days.

Our family had a great visit at this cozy cottage. We are glad we stayed near Bernard, much quieter than the Bar Harbor area. The cottage was clean, quiet and peaceful. The space was just right for our family of five. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here.

We were traveling with two dogs and loved the privacy this little place provided. Usually we stay closer to bar harbor but needing a last minute change in lodging to take both dogs we didn’t have any options closer to where we usually stay. But this side of the island was a pleasant surprise. We never would’ve spent as much time over there otherwise. Been going there for years, and shaking it up this time was awesome. Definitely would stay there again!
