Stayed Jun 25, 2022We had a great stay - our visit was made very comfortable by our host Christie. Everything was as pictured and the house was well appointed. We were able to make family meals, play board games on a rainy day, and enjoyed time in the yard and with our neighbors for the week. There was also great bike storage as an added bonus! Highly recommend.

Stayed Oct 17, 2025We enjoyed the location and comfortably relaxed as a group of 6. We were in town for the MDI Half Marathon, and being steps from the finish line was so lovely after finishing. We also enjoyed using the fire pit next to the water and had plenty of amenities to cook a few meals. One note - the two single beds on the sleeping porch are not heated, so keep that in mind for stays later in the season. Christie was super communicative throughout the entire process.

Stayed Oct 5, 2025Lovely cottage in a great location. Very clean. Fireplace was great for a cool rainy day we had. The kitchen is well stocked and even has pancake mix and syrup. Only downside was the traffic noise, which interfered with our sleep. The house is right on the road, with 2 of the 3 bedrooms road facing, so 6am-10pm we heard traffic pretty non-stop. If you're a light sleeper this might not be the best place to stay. But if that's not a concerns for you, then go for it - everything else about this rental is great!

Stayed Sep 7, 2025Everything was perfect. The host thought of everything. We didn’t need to buy anything except food. She even provided coffee. My only complaint was the marina next-door. It had a docking area but also a separate working area for repairs so was a little noisy on workdays when I wanted to sit by the water and enjoy coffee in the the quiet.

Stayed Aug 11, 2025Well kept and appointed home. Very comfortable. The owner was quick to respond to inquiries and lives close so is able to replace or fix anything quickly. (nothing was broken but a lobster pot had a hole in it and was replaced within 30 minutes!) Great location.

Stayed Jun 28, 2025We had a great stay at the home, which was well accommodated and very comfortable. The beds were comfy and the in window air-conditioning unit units were very effective. While the home is not large, it is well laid out and the space is used efficiently so we still felt very comfortable with our family of five and our dog. The area is beautiful with so many different things to do and lots of good food and hiking.

Stayed Jun 24, 2025Very comfortable and well-appointed cottage for our family of four. Great location, peaceful and quiet but we were able to walk to town to visit shops and restaurants. Quick drive to hikes and other Acadia activities. Host was proactive and responsive -- check-in and checkout were a breeze.

Stayed Jun 17, 2025Our family of 4 (2 parents and 2 adult children) drove from Chicago to Maine to experience Mom's East Coast heritage. This house in Southwest Harbor delivered! Things we loved: walkabilty to town and short drive to Bar Harbor, functional kitchen allowed us to shop/cook and save money on meals, king bed in primary bedroom, 3 other separate sleeping areas, laundry area, view of the boats from the back deck, niceties like TVs ( didnt turn them on once) and AC. The host is helpful and responsive and the home is clean, comfortable and loaded with East Cost charm! We enjoyed hiking in Acadia National Park (very close), Beals Lobster Pier, a Lighthouse and Puffin cruise, shell/sea glass hunting, antiquing, LOTS of ice cream at the Salt Shop and coffee from Top Notch. Salt Shop and Beals were AMAZING with Mom's gluten allergy. Wonderful memories made here.

Stayed Jun 9, 2025House is very cute and kitchen was well stocked and clean. We only used the king bed and it was very comfortable. Washer and dryer are located in the basement, which explains why there were no photos of them in the listing. Only complaint is the bathroom sink faucets are too small for the sink which made it hard to wash hands. The living room rug could use some cleaning, but other than that the entire house was very clean. Nice deck for enjoying meals. Lots of towels and wash clothes, which we appreciated. Location was good.

Stayed Jun 1, 2025This house has charm. It was a darling house that was super clean! The beds were very coney and the deck was nice to relax on. Christy was extremely easy to work with and willing to help! The only caution I would have with this house is if you have small children just know 2 beds are on an enclosed front porch with a door. Even my young adults were nervous to sleep there! Overall though I would definitely stay again at one of Christy’s properties!

Stayed Sep 28, 2024Charming home, nicely decorated. Nice view of SW Harbor. Close to grocery store, restaurants, Acadia. If you cannot walk up a flight of stairs, you may want to contact the host, though. Great location. We took a ride on a lobster boat, went to Bar Harbor, went to Cadillac mountain, and drove the park loop. We really enjoyed the island and its beauty.

Stayed Jun 30, 2024We stayed at the house for three weeks and it worked very well. Our boys (5 & 8) enjoyed the firepit next to the water, the short walk to the shops, library, ice cream, etc. and close proximity to a working harbor.

Stayed May 25, 2024The property is beautiful there wasn't anything we needed that wasn't provided to us. Christie was an amazing hostess. We took the ferry to Swans Island and go stuck on the island due to the dock breaking and I reached out to her, and she sent her nephew to come pick us up from Bass Harbor once we got back to the main island because we had to leave our rental on Swans Island! We were so grateful for her all her help. I highly recommend staying in the Cottage and on Southwest Harbor.

Stayed Jun 2, 2024Christie was an exceptional host and we very much enjoyed having this charming house as our base to a wonderful family vacation. The house was very clean and offered everything we needed for the week. We enjoyed making a camfire by the water many of the nights we were there. That was a treat that we miss by not camping...thumbs up.
