Five stars is NOT enough!!! I'd like to give this beautiful chalet 25 stars! Here is how I would do…read morethat: Location: 5 Stars: Fantastic location. It is the closest vacation property off the bridge from Mt. Desert Island. In addition, there are no less than 5 lobster pounds nearby with 3 being very close, one is walking distance. A new bakery just opened up and it is walking distance too. It has coffee drinks, blueberry pie, blueberry muffins and scones and Whoopie Pies. It is also close to the grocery store and gas. Chalet amenities: Five stars. My wife and I have stayed at all kinds of rentals all over the world and this is the CUTEST place we have ever seen. The decorations will make you smile and give you peace. The two bedrooms are both great and the bathroom has all you need including an amazing shower head and toilet light---cool! There are several restful places to sit if you need some down time and the kitchen is equipped with everything you might need. The Keurig coffee maker is stocked with great tasting coffee pods. Food nearby: Five Stars. Five lobster pounds close by and the bakery plus Bar harbor is close with some great restaurants as well as Ellsworth. You won't go hungry and Acadia house is close to it all. We ate so much lobster, we almost turned red and the tasty blueberry dishes were amazing too! We also had some amazing ice cream too. All this nearby in a special country looking paradise! Chalet ownership: Five stars. Cliff is the most amazing owner! He really cares and is absolutely focused on giving folks an experience they won't soon forget. He keeps the Acadia House in perfect shape! Cliff is also a local expert on ALL the many fun activities to do in the area. His recommendations were truly priceless! He knows where to drive, where to shop, where to eat and where to hike. The first vacation rental I ever rented where we also got a tour guide...bonus! Nearby activities: Five stars. Whether you come for a long weekend or more than a week, you can rest assured you will not run short of things to do. We visited some amazing nearby gardens, hiked some adventurous hikes, went to drives to sights that take your breath away, shopped in beautiful Bar Harbor, took a nature cruise, and even saw a really fun lumberjack show. We could have done a lot more but our six nights simply flew by. In summary, we had a great time. Don't hesitate to book this place. I am sure we will be back when we can!

I think it's under new ownership. This isn't the name it had in June 2025, but we loved it. We did…read morenot get a cabin, we rented the 2-bed, 2-bath unit above the office. It was perfect. We arrived exhausted on day 8 of a 16 day trip. We did NOT want to unpack and get in the car to go eat (even though Bar Harbor is convenient). Lo, and behold! Coffee shop across the street for the first morning, and a lobster shop visible across the street. The lobster shop was perfect for that first night. Location was convenient to Bar Harbor, Acadia, and a fantastic, quiet, friendly little beach just a mile down the side road. We did three trips to this little beach (one each evening we stayed). Beach is walkable from the cabins, but the last bit o' hill is steep. Drive down the first time to judge for yourself.

We picked up our first bus at the Village Green and road it up to the visitor center where we switched buses to Cadillac Mt, Sand Beach, Thunder Cove. The bus drivers were friendly and eager to assist. The maps provided were helpful as well. The timing of the buses though we were told we're never really on time, we found some to be on time, and others not so much. But we can't complain. Best of all it's free! But don't forget to tip to help keep it free.

Sleeping in a tent…read moreon the ground was ok maybe 30 years ago but I enjoy being comfortable, indoor plumbing and heat when it's cold! Came upon the site for Seaside Cottages by the Shore and it sounded too good to be true. A secluded cove with the water a few steps from the cottage; kayaks and canoes for the kids to use, all the conveniences of home and just a beautiful and restful setting. Well, it's true! Gail & Carroll were so gracious and welcoming. The perfect location on the quiet side of the island and food joints fairly close by. Only got to see one sunset and it was spectacular. We were busy everyday hiking, whale watching, etc. but our cottage was the perfect place to return to everyday. My college age sons enjoyed getting up early and kayaking for a couple ours in the cove They enjoyed seeing seals everyday. Picked fresh mussels when the tide went out. You can't get any fresher than that. We'll be back
