Bass Harbor, Maine
Please note: Usually, we can only rent Sunday to Sunday for June, July and August mainly due to a shortage of people to clean when the cottage is turned for a new renter. On occasion, you may see a block of less than a week on the calendar for those months in which case, you may feel free to ask for those shorter stays. If there is a last minute opening in the high season, shorter stays will also be considered. Stays of a minimum of 3 nights are fine for the other rental months, but less than a 7 night stay will incur an extra $25 to help cover extra turnover cleaning costs.
All guests must be at least 24 years of age.
Enjoy all that Acadia National Park has to offer!! Don't forget that September and October are two of the best months in Acadia as well! No crowds...just beautiful fall weather and gorgeous scenery.We are a short distance to all the natural beauty that is Acadia, and there is no time like the fall for hiking. We are located on what is known on the island of Mount Desert on the 'Quiet Side'. We are away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor.. Relax on our patio and enjoy the garden.
The quaint village of Southwest Harbor is nearby. Take the nearby ferries to all the surrounding islands. Some of Acadia's easiest and most beautiful hikes are a short distance away.
We have a fully stocked kitchen for those who like to cook. Our cottage is heated to take the chill off a cool autumn evening.
So come enjoy your vacation in our garden cottage and enjoy the natural splendor that is Acadia!!

Four nights in Bass Harbor were very nice. Great little place for the 2 of us. Everything we needed. Thx Leslie for the great communication.
We thoroughly enjoyed our four nights in the Bass Harbor Cottage. It was perfect for two adults. The bedroom and sitting room were very comfortable and cozy. The kitchen had all you would need to prepare meals and a nice eating area or there were even TV trays upstairs in the sitting room. We enjoyed relaxing each evening after dinner with a DVD from the great selection provided. Our host, Leslie, gave us wonderful tips on places to eat, shop, and things to do. The drive to Acadia's main loop was easy and beautiful. Passing through the little towns was fun. Although we may not have been in the center of the hustle and bustle, we could easily drive to BarHarbor of other spots. Absolutely enjoyed our stay.
Great stay and great location.
Close to the water and we’ll equipped. Bed was comfortable and linens were new and fresh. Perfect for two people. Property owner is responsive to communications. We had few questions and overall enjoyed our stay.
Great property on the quiet side with a lovely patio garden. Easy drive into Southwest Harbor for shopping and restaurants. Upstairs living space with TV a plus.
We loved our stay on the Quiet Side of mount desert island. Beautiful garden makes up for lack of direct lake views but access to hikes, carriage roads and coast is easy to get to.
The property was ideal for our needs. Wonderful location close to Bass Harbor Marsh where we put in our two person canoe and lovely hiking without the crowds. My wife loved the well appointed kitchen. All in all a lovely property.
The cottage is very comfortabel and the location is wonderful. A good bed for a good night sleep. Near the water, near nice restaurants and near enough to Arcadia national park and Bar Harbor. A great place to stay.
Perfect cozy cottage surrounded by beautiful gardens. Owner stocks everything you could need for comfort and convenience. Lots to do in area. Bar Harbor only about a 20 minute drive away. Great access to all Acadia Nat'l Park has to offer. Great restaurants close to home. Would highly recommend!!!
A perfect cottage for two. Cute private garden. Clean, cosy, fully stocked with everything we needed. (Even had a white noise machine for sleeping) Quiet side of Mt. Desert Island. Had a bit of miscommunication about checking in, but neighbors helped us find cottage.
My husband and I had a lovely stay at this great little cottage outside of Southwest Harbor back in October. It's in a great location and nice and roomy for two people. Communication with Leslie was exceptionally good. There was a glitch with the cleaning people, and she was fantastic at handling it. We would definitely go back.
Leslie left nothing to chance. The cottage is sweet, stylish & well equipped. Perfect all around!
The cottage was very cozy, comfortable and clean. Leslie communicated with us before we arrived and instructions were easy to follow. Although it was a bit of a drive to the national park there were stores and restaurants conveniently located near by. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We really loved staying at the cottage, which is comfortable, has all the kitchen items needed and more ( a plus as we cooked in a lot) and a great, beautiful location. As mentioned, this is the quiet side of the island, but it was perfect for us to get some quiet and be close to great hikes and a few restaurants and shops. Really lovely stay.
We had a great time and truly enjoyed our stay
Charming well-equipped cottage with beautiful garden on the “quiet side” of Mt. Desert Island. Leslie provided numerous useful tips for hikes and restaurants. We were grateful to be away from the crowds and yet conveniently located for exploring Acadia NP. She had very helpful books on hand to guide us around the park and island. We also enjoyed the games (especially cribbage) and the vast movie selection.
The owner, Leslie, was wonderful to deal with and the cottage was perfect. It was spacious, clean and stocked with everything we needed from appliances to games and outdoor furniture. The gardens around the patio and entrance were beautiful with hummingbirds and butterflies. It was a very warm week and the air conditioner and fans were needed. We went on family-owned boat tour down the road, Island Cruises, which we highly recommend. It was very informative and we saw lots of wildlife (birds, dolphins and seals). Nice quiet location and we would highly recommend this property.
Great location close enough to Bar Harbor but not too close very quiet good restaurants very coastal New England bury coastal New England
Great place away from all the tourists.
Stayed here to explore Acadia National Park. Nice place, amazing/comfortable bed, and all-around easy to speak with the host. I would recommend it if you are looking for someplace near Arcadia to use as a place to rest your head at night. We didnt stay much at the house, but there are bikes and kayaks you can use if you want to do things more local and around the atea.
Beautiful garden. Everything we needed provided. Great location.
Beautiful place to stay for just two people. The owners were great to work with. We grilled outside- it was great. The lighthouse is few minutes away. Highly recommend!
