Great experience. Cozy, rustic accommodations, charming cottage.l, on the quiet side of MDI.

As previous summarized in other reviews, this property is a child’s wonderland and the pictures don’t do the actual experience justice. We loved our quiet morning coffee overlooking the water and the amazing sunsets at nights followed by warm campfires relaxing and talking about our adventures during the day.

Definitely rustic but well worth it. Absolutely magical place

Wonderful!

Family friendly. Off the beaten path. Rustic.

Amazing location, washer/dryer, equipped kitchen, well-stocked w/ firewood, and lots of games. A blissful place inside and out!

Sincere thanks to the owner family for allowing us to share the beauty of this place! The photos simply DO NOT do justice - FAR FAR MORE beautiful. Perched on an isolated bluff overlooking the peaceful narrows, it is truly isolated, charming, rustic, and quiet. Our week here was utter bliss. A fantastic place for dogs, with quiet paths for long walks, and many acadian beaches for exploring. Endless opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing, kayaking, etc. A few helpful pieces of advice for future visitors: 1) no internet/wifi and very limited cell service often without LTE - be prepared to go into Bar Harbor to reconnect every now and then, 2) well water tastes funny but no worry - owners (very kindly) provided spring water, 3) cool in Maine even in summer (50-70s) so bring layers, 4) limited interior lighting - bring headlamps/good flashlights for getting around at night. But COME HERE - you will not regret it!

My family stayed at this property over the 4th of July. We loved the grounds and breathtaking views of the water. We really enjoyed the sunsets! The house is a rustic cabin and was cozy and comfortable. The house and property are not too far from the actual Acadia National Park and it was very nice not being in all the crowds in Bar Harbor. We hit Maine at a perfect time weather wise and thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

We had a blast! Beautiful home, cozy, rustic warm and so inviting. We stayed there for a week and West Point treated us so well. We will go back every year if we can! We had fresh lobsters from the Intrepid Lobster boat. The captin let us pick them out, and we only paid $10.00 for two lobsters! The home is on the quiet side of Island and bar harbor was a short drive and there is plenty of fun things to do! treat your self to the best and visit this property!

This property is special and the house charming. It has all necessary conveniences along with great views and easy water access. Having a separate cottage and main house is great for multi-age family groups. Location works well to get anywhere on Mt. Dessert Island.

This is truly one of the most serene and nourishing places I know, and to vacation here is very special. Whether watching the sunset from the platform deck that looks out towards Bartlett's Island, or having a morning coffee on the float while seals and dolphins sometimes make a surprise appearance, beauty is ever present. The converted barn is comfortable and well equipped, and the fireplace is great for those chilly evenings or days of inclement weather. If you have a kayak, you will find it a great place to go exploring. When we stay here, (and we have returned for at least 15 years) we rarely feel the need to venture into town. West Point works its magic, and we leave with great peace of mind.

I have been enjoying summer vacations at The Point since I was a little kid. Now, as a Mom of 2 young boys (5 y/o and 2 y/o), this amazing getaway still fits the bill! It is little piece of paradise where you can recharge away from the hustle of every day life. Surrounded by BREATH TAKING views, the cozy converted barn is the pefect place for yummy family meals, fires, game playing and reading. The barn has a rustic and open feel, totally renovated bathrooms and even a washer dryer! We love exploring the beach at low tide, watching boats cruise down the narrows from the dock, spotting seals just off the point and playing wiffle ball in the yard. All of the activities of Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park are just a short drive away (hiking trails, biking the carriage roads (yes, you can do this with a one year old in tow :-)), Cadillac Mountain, Bar Harbor, lobster boat tours, Maritime Museum, Jordan Pond). I look forward to returning for many years to come. Every age and every stage will walk away from this little slice of paradise feeling renewed!

My wife and I stayed here last summer. The barn/main house is charming and the cabin is perfect. Lots of good nights sleep, chilly morning dips and incredible sunsets. It's located on the quiet side of MDI, close enough to what you want to get to when you need to but otherwise nicely out of the way. At the recommendation of the owners, we actually met the lobster boat when it came into the harbor (just to the north of the house) in the afternoon. Bought them fresh off the boat! Possibly the best lobster I have ever eaten. Wonderful spot that I highly recommend!
