    The stairs are very steep and we would not recommend for seniors. Top floor loft bedroom stairs were too steep for us to use. The second bedroom on the bottom floor was very hot with no air conditioning.The main floor was wonderful with a stunning view!

    We loved staying in the quiet side and watching yachts and lobster boats coming and going from the harbor. We walked into town several times. The home was perfect for the 4 of us and had everything we needed! Host was very responsive to questions. Would definitely recommend.

    We absolutely loved everything about our stay in Southwest Harbor! The condo was clean, comfortable, and perfectly located close to grocery stores, restaurants, hiking trails, and Acadia National Park. The kitchen was well stocked with spices, dishes, pots, pans and gas grill. We especially enjoyed hanging out on the dock with our beach chairs in the afternoon, soaking in the hot tub, warming up at night by the chimene (lots of firewood provided), watching sunrises, and peaceful evenings.You can’t beat the views from the deck, and we’re so thankful we discovered this gem on the “quiet side.” Acadia is truly a treasure, and this spot made it easy to enjoy it all. We highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again!

    We are retired and getting a bit to old to navigate a sail boat. We loved the view looking at all the boats coming and going. We visited Bar Harbor, Acadia Park, We ate the best food from Little Notch Bakery. Try the blueberry pie. Its to die for. Thank you for your rental it had all we needed to feel at home.

    The view is truly priceless! We also enjoyed the hot tub after hiking the nearby trails each day. Quiet location and never heard the neighbor next door. We have stayed at many VRBO properties and this was the first time we have been asked to sweep and the vacuum the floors on departure!

    Very well kept and clean. Far enough off of the Main Street with great parking. No need for a sunrise pass to Cadillac! We enjoyed it right from our living room couch. Would definitely rent again! Reached out to owner about one small thing and responded right away.

    We just completed our 8th year staying here and it never disappoints. You can’t beat the views from the deck or the proximity to restaurants and local attractions. Every year we say how thankful we found this spot on the “quiet side”!

    South Harbor is about half an hour from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor and the main portion of Acadia national Park. We enjoyed being able to escape to our quiet little house located right on South Harbor while staying close enough to Acadia to do all the hiking and eat all the lobster that we wanted.

    The view of the harbor was nothing short of stunning. Watching lobster and sailboats coming and going all day was mesmerizing. And the view was from the loft, the deck and the patio and hot tub. We took advantage of it for breakfast lunch and dinner because we could not beat it at a restaurant. Rooms were very clean if a little small. Kitchen was well appointed. Stairs were a little steep. Location in Southwest Harbor is wonderful much more quaint and quiet than Bar Harbor. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The view is probably the best I’ve ever seen in places. I’ve stayed all over the world. And the owner was very sweet to give us a heads up on sidewalk construction and offer a refund, but it really was not an issue.
