    Very comfortable cabin in a nice quiet location away from crowds. Deers are literally in the backyard :) Mary is a nice friendly host, please ask Mary about fantastic blueberry pies one neighboor makes! Main Acadia park trails are within 30-40 min drive, no traffic and beautiful scenery.

    Mary was a great host, and the place is exactly as it looks in the pictures. Extremely clean and very quiet. Great views and lots of wildlife as well! Close to beautiful walks, the Bass Harbor lighthouse, restaurants, boat tours, and groceries, but also scenic enough to keep the countryside feel.

    Clean, cozy, comfortable. Super easy check-in and out. Great communication. We locked ourselves out and Mary was there in less than five minutes. Location is perfect for us--less than five minutes from the Ship Harbor and Wonderland trails for watching the sunrise each morning. This was the second year in a row we have stayed here.
