Lovely setting

LOVELY SETTING! Loved the outside area which had picnic tables, chairs around a fire pit and also a gas pit. We took some walks around the neighborhood and down one street was a beautiful view of the water. We were with another couple and decided we would definitely come back here. The cottages were very clean and cute. Loved our stay!

Amazing beautiful little cabin with everything we needed. A ways outside of Bar Harbor proper, we ended up taking rides on the evening we wanted to have a drink in town. Beautiful garden, fire pit and confortable outside furniture. We gathered with other guest one night on the wind down and that was a nice perk we didnt expect. The traffic to Cadillac mtn in the morning is a buzz at 5 am to catch the sunrise. Pretty loud with windows open. Overall, this was a great place to stay

Great base for exploring Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Parking outside the room. Fridge and coffee making facilities in the room. We appreciated the outdoor grill and picnic tables. We had no problem finding all day parking in Bar Harbor when we went on a couple of cruises but we were there early in the morning.
