Southwest Harbor, Maine
In a prime location on Mount Desert Island Maine, this property has been lovingly cared for and enjoyed by the same family for four generations. The Cottage was designed and built in 2003-2004 by our father, Caleb, to take full advantage of this ideal spot which has direct access to the water, dock, mooring and gorgeous views of the harbor.
Near the end of a private road on Connor Point, you will feel the peacefulness of a true get-away. Steps away from hiking in Acadia National Park, and yet you are only a 5 minute drive from the charming downtown of Southwest Harbor and 25 minutes from bustling and fun town of Bar Harbor. Feel life slow down as you enjoy your morning coffee on the large deck overlooking the ocean and decide whether you will hike, sail, swim, kayak or shop. Great place for kids with large grassy area, beach combing, and many kid-friendly activities. Ideal for up to 6 adults and 2 children.
Accommodations: Our cottage features clean, open and bright rooms overlooking the ocean, a fully equipped kitchen and all of the modern amenities to enhance your stay. All the modern amenities: washer, dryer, dishwasher, gas stove, microwave, satellite TV, DVD, high speed internet (wifi), and heat. Great for boaters with both dock and mooring access.
Nearby Activities: Walk just a few minutes to hiking trails, or drive (or take a free bus) around Mt. Dessert Island where you can stop to hike up mountains, swim in lakes, view the rocky coast, or visit Thunder Hole. You can hike (or drive) up Cadillac Mountain, the highest mountain in Acadia National park,which is one of dozens of mountains to climb. From here you can look down to Bar Harbor and the Porcupine Islands, the Cranberry Islands, and much of Mt. Desert Island
Great location
This was our first visit to Caleb's Cottage and we were so thrilled to pull up and see the house we had hoped for was really ours for a few days! The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was well furnished as was the laundry room. Sitting on the porch with a mug of coffee was the best! So close to Acadia- some trails within walking distance. We love to come back.
Our family really enjoyed staying at Caleb's Cottage. It was comfortable, spacious, and had all the comforts of home. The view from the lovely front porch is beautiful and we loved drinking our coffee in the morning and gathering there to relax after our day exploring Acadia National Park. As seniors we were able to walk from the cottage to Flying Mountain where we hiked to the top and back. This property is only about a 20-minute drive to Bar Harbor and other scenic spots in Acadia National Park. We had a great stay!
Clean, plenty of room, comfortable and well situated with a nice view! We would stay there again …
This was our 2nd time visiting Caleb's Cottage and the 2nd time that our family loved out stay. Our sons *(7 & 2) loved having access to the water using the dock and kayak's that we had rented. The house is very comfortable and has allowed our family to create wonderful memories. Being so close to Flying Mountain, the Causeway Club and the new Mini Golf course made the week even better.
This is our 3rd time staying here. Our family loves it! Looking out at the cove is so beautiful and peaceful. We hike, we rent a kayak for the week, we go to Echo Lake, we enjoy dinner at the Little Fern restaurant at the Clairmont Hotel. We played 9 holes of golf this year at the club down the street. Lots of hiking within walking distance from the cottage. The cottage is very clean and the kitchen is stocked with everything you need. The pictures are exactly how the cottage looks - beautiful. Ben is great and responsive.
Our family enjoyed a wonderful stay at Caleb's Cottage. A short drive to Bar Harbor, and a very serene setting. The cottage was clean and well appointed. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your family cottage!
Everything was great. Such a warm and homey feel. The only downside is the front steps are very slippery in the morning. Warn others to be careful as I slipped and fell down the steps
Great vacation location for scenic views, hiking, close to restaurants. Overall outstanding!
This was our first time to Maine and Acadia, it is difficult to select lodging on line. We were very pleased. The house was spacious and comfortable and had everything that we needed. We were also pleased that the location was near so many of the attractions we wanted to see, but far enough away that it was peaceful and relaxing when we returned to the house. I will definitely miss drinking my morning tea on that beautiful porch watching the birds and seals in the bay. We definitely plan on returning.
We had another great stay at Caleb's Cottage. The accommodations are comfortable and the location is fantastic - allows us to enjoy both Acadia and Southwest Harbor. We love that it is walking distance to Flying Mountain!
We had a great time at Caleb’s cottage and highly recommend this property.
This is our second time staying at Caleb's Cottage. The cottage is clean and comfortable. The view and location is amazing! My husband and I and our three teenage children all enjoyed our vacation - the close proximity to Southwest Harbor, ANP, and Flying Mountain!
This is the 2nd time we stayed at Caleb's Cottage. The 1st time was last fall for a few days. This time we stayed for a week with family. The week was so wonderful that we plan to return next June. The cottage is lovely and has everything you need. The kitchen is the best equipped kitchen of any rental I have booked in the past. The view is amazing and just like the pictures online. It is a very peaceful area. We rented a double kayak for the week which I would highly recommend. Ben is wonderful to work with. Thanks for sharing your cottage with us again.
We had a lovely time staying at this quiet, clean, spacious cabin. We spent time looking for shells, enjoyed the beautiful sky, and it was easy to get around on the island from this location. It was also the most well stocked rental I've ever stayed at!
