11 Cute 1Br Acadia Cottage Open Hearth Inn
We stayed here our last night while visiting Acadia. Super cute little cabin! We loved that they had a common space in the main house that was full of supplies and very welcoming. Would stay here again!

10 1BR Acadia Cottage w/AC Open Hearth Inn
Awesome spot located between all of the mt. Desert island/acadia national park stuff and the Ellsworth stores and convenience. Well kept cute line of cabins. Felt private even next to other cabins. Very pleasant experience!

Penobscot Bayview Fireplace Hot tub
It’s a lovely cabin, the hot tub is a plus. It’s also fairly private since it’s last cabin of the property.

Canoe House Bungalow and Spa Retreat ,Searsport
We had a great two nights here and enjoyed the hot soak and the sauna. It was near many amenities and also felt very removed. Matt’s was attentive without being intrusive, making sure our stay was perfect and the escape we hoped it would be.

Lawn Cottage - Newly Renovated 2024
Adorable cottage, newly renovated. Perfect for two with an open space loft for one more. Kitchen is well stocked right down to the coffee. A good location if visiting Fort Knox, Mt. Barrie and not too far from Bar Harbor if that is on your list. Great stay, highly recommend. Beautiful view and private.

Nashport on the Penobscot
great stay for a relaxing weekend trip. perfect house for chilling but still drivable to Acadia. well stocked on the essentials, linens, and stunning views! host very responsive as well.

Open Hearth Inn Cottage 12 - 10 min to Acadia!

Lake Front-Spa Tub-Fire Pit-Full Kitchen-Canoe
We really enjoyed our stay at Eddie’s house. It was so clean and inviting. The house has so much character. The view of the lake was great. We would definitely book again.

Lakefront Cottage on Tracy Pond
Anna was incredibly communicative and her place was clean, quiet, and exactly what we were looking for. We especially loved her two little greeter cats!

Chic Farmhouse Cottage, WiFi, Private Beach, A/C
Absolutely loved our stay here! If you're someone who enjoys being close to nature and traveling with your dog, this place is perfect. The surroundings are peaceful and green. Fabiola was super friendly and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The house rules were clear and straightforward, which made the whole experience stress-free. We felt really welcomed and comfortable the entire time. All in all, a great stay—we’d definitely come back!

Everett Cottage at Indian Point (Bar Harbor)
Probably the most amazing vacation rental setting we're ever experienced. This place sits in a nature preserve on 2.5 acres of beautiful Maine coastline. Going to bed and waking up with seals and wave noise, watching Bald Eagle fishing... Just like living a Discovery Channel dream. North of the property is the preserve, 300' South is your first neighbor. Craig/Kadedra were super responsive, extremely nice and helpful. The house is a 70' blast from the past, well maintained and has all the pluses (dishwasher, washing machine, good internet). We will be back!

Cozy Cottage on Frenchman Bay
Great beach access, theres a little island you can go to with the tide

Camp on private Beach / Bears Den / Graham Lake
I had a wonderful stay here! The inside is clean and cozy! Plus we enjoyed being able to cook over the fire and hang out by the lake. The location is private and peaceful. 35 minutes to the entrance of Acadia but depending on what part of the park you are headed to it can be up to an hour drive. I would stay again!

Lakefront Stargazing Haven w/Loons, 45 Min Acadia
We had an amazing stay at Jason’s place despite a (mostly) rainy Memorial Day weekend! We still found plenty to do including inside the Airbnb, outside at the pond, and locally at all of the great restaurants/breweries/nature around. We also made it out to Acadia two of our days. I will say, the trip took longer than advertised (about an hour to get to the edge of the park), but was a pleasant enough ride. We also had our two dogs staying with us and we all felt right at home! Jason was a very responsive and helpful host as well - you can’t go wrong with this peaceful retreat on the pond!

Cozy cottage close to Acadia National Park!
Such an absolutely magical place to stay! My pup and I stayed for a month while I worked and played. Gorgeous views of the Beech Hill Pond and close enough to various towns for hiking, sightseeing and enjoying local food. Spent time on Deer Isle, MDI at Bar Harbour & Acadia, and even made the trek to Lubec. if you want to experience a wee bit of winter and early spring, mid to late March into April was the perfect time. We had a few inches of snow fall within the first few days of the trip. Don't hesitate to book this cottage!

Stylish ocean-view home on Acadia's Schoodic Loop
Great place. Exactly as described. Julie and Rich went above and beyond with recommendations and itineraries. Would stay there again!

Isleview Cottage 4 - 10 minutes to Acadia!
Cozy little cabin right by the road that goes to Acadia national park, which makes it very convenient for people planning to visit Acadia and Bar Harbor. It had everything we needed: comfy bed, coffee maker, little fridge, functional bathroom, television. Communication with Maria was great, as she was always friendly and responded quickly to questions.

24- Cozy & Modern 600sf Cottage in West Tremont
Karen's cottage was perfect for a weekend getaway in Acadia National Park. It was removed from Bar Harbor and the elevated tourism over there. Karen had a book with local food recommendations that was amazing. We ate at 2 restaurants in Tremont that were good enough to compete anywhere in the world (Harbor Table & Clark Pointe Cafe).

Little Cranberry Island Cottage
This was my second time at Mark's place and I can't wait to go back. The cabin is just perfect and I love everything about the island and the lovely community there. Islesford is the perfect getaway to recharge and reset.

Sunny and Spacious A-Frame
We absolutely loved our stay at the A-Frame! The house is located on the Quiet Side of the Island on a private secluded road that was so peaceful. We really enjoyed the property which included a large backyard and looked out over the water, both the sunrises and the sunsets from here were incredible. Erin's home was clean, well decorated and had all the amenities we needed for our stay, we felt right at home the entire week we stayed. Although it was only my husband and I with our two dogs, the home was large enough for a family and had plenty of space to hang out and enjoy. We really loved how close it was to Southwest Harbor where we enjoyed the restaurants and shopping as well as walking around. We were also able to explore Acadia National Park which was under a thirty minute drive from here and very easy to access. We would highly recommend Erin's home to anyone visiting the area!

Cottage #8 at Lewis Cottages
Lovely space and close to Acadia! Had everything we needed!

Evergreen Cottage
I absolutely loved my stay. It's in a great location on the quietside of Acadia and there are some great trails right down the road. I much preferred that area to the more crowded Bar Harbor area, but it's only a short drive away if you like that scene. The cottage was exactly as pictured, so adorable and cozy.

Lamoine Thuya Cottage
Lynn’s beautiful cottage provided everything we could have needed for our trip to Maine. We arrived in the evening, and she so kindly provided breakfast for us in the fridge for the next morning and following days. She was so responsive and kind. The cottage is absolutely beautiful and inviting. We felt right at home! Lamoine is a gorgeous location, and the cottage is a short walk from the unbelievable scenery at Lamoine State Beach and Park. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you Lynn!
