    We loved our stay at Grant and Becky's cottage! The cottage is so comfortable and very, very clean. The beautiful grounds and spectacular view made it such a relaxing place to come back to after hiking and biking. We cooked a fair amount while there, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Feeding apples to the deer was also daily bonus. But mostly, we really appreciated our gracious hosts. Grant and Becky went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and made us feel right at home! We hope to return!

    Grant and Becky are wonderful hosts and they have a very special place. We loved every minute of our stay. I especially loved the beautiful views from our gorgeous cottage. There is nothing like going to sleep on a cool evening listening to the waves splash against the seashore. We will be back! A

    We had a beautiful week in Acadia, and having this lovely cottage as our home base made it all the more special. The bed and linens were exceptionally comfortable, and the rain shower was a luxurious treat. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed — from sharp knives to a salad spinner!We loved the stunning views and the peaceful sight of deer grazing regularly in the yard. And our host was extremely warm, friendly, and helpful. Having stayed in many homes and cottages in Southwest Harbor over the years, we can honestly say this was one of the most memorable. A truly special place!

    It was across the board wonderful. I’m hesitant to post this out of the fear of bringing attention to this amazing property and making it more popular.

    Me and my wife first visit to the Acadia-Bar Harbor area. The cottage was a perfect place to have easy access to the area. It was quite with beautiful views of the ocean. The cottage met all our expectations and hope to stay again on our next visit to the area. Grant and Becky the cottage owners were great and very hospitable. After staying one week it is easy to understand why this cottage gets such great ratings.
