Aisling Cottage - Harbor Views from Every Room

Overall, we had a perfect stay at the cottage. We were looking for a quiet stay near Acadia and got just that. The hosts were incredible; they even told us to check out the Northern Lights (didn’t even know we could!!) I loved the front porch; I could sit there every morning with coffee and a book. We would recommend this spot, and we’d come back.

Cozy spot in a great location in Bass Harbor! Will happily return next year.

This was our second time staying at Aisling Cottage. We just love it. It's a great, cozy cottage with everything you need but not overly cluttered. Very well located in terms of being on Mt Desert BUT on the more quiet side of the island. My favorite thing is that the kitchen window above the sink and the living room have a few of the harbor. Having a young child means vacations involve a lot of time at home in between activities so it's nice to stay somewhere where you're still feeling the picturesque Maine vibes while at home playing puzzles or doing dishes. :) We love this place.

My husband, daughter, and I had an absolutely wonderful stay here for 6 nights as first timers to the island. So cozy, warm, and inviting - we enjoyed quiet breakfasts in the eat-in kitchen, played games and read books in the living room, and lounged in the enclosed porch. The beds were so comfy that after long, adventurous, days in close by Acadia - we all slept deeply and soundly. A big thank you to Virginia and David - we will definitely be back!

Aisling cottage was a beautiful quiet getaway. Nice and clean. Cottage had everything we needed with nice little added touches to make us feel right at home. Friendly hosts. Definitely cannot wait to go back for another stay.

A great, quiet, beautiful place to stay. Peaceful and clean. Had everything we needed for our one-year-old. The absolute best place you could stay with small kids!

The home is located just a short drive from some very nice hikes around the Seawall Rd. The home itself has a nice layout that made it cozy for the whole family including basically two living rooms and a porch that our family enjoyed in the evenings. We were lucky enough to get a clear night and see the Milky Way to boot!

We had a wonderful time! Victoria was so helpful, the cottage was darling, and the location was a wonderfully quiet jumping off point to explore!

Took the family up to Acadia National Park, the wife picked the location to stay. House was conveniently located on the south side of the Island. Still with-in a 25-30 min ride to the national park. We were warmly welcomed by the home owners upon checking in. We enjoyed our stay. If we do decided to make the trip again, the property will be in consideration for a place to stay. Thanks again;JR

Our small family with one 4 year old and two adults loved staying in this charming, well -furnished cottage on the quieter side of the island. Hosts were awesome, super sweet and responsive, we loved talking with them and hearing local recommendations, they definitely made the stay even better than it would have been. This was a perfect place to explore the West side of Acadia and authentic coastal Maine towns nearby. We will definitely look to stay at this property again on our next visit.
