Enjoy the amazing sunsets from the deck of this beautiful house located on Bass Harbor.

This charming, antique-filled, two bedroom Cape Cod style house is a comfortable and picturesque home base from which to enjoy your Mt. Desert Island vacation.

The large deck is complete with a dining table and gas grill as well as lounge chairs for sitting in the sun and enjoying the water views.

The first floor is open and breezy with living and dining room offering unrestricted views of the harbor. The cozy den/tv room has a sleeper sofa for additional sleeping arrangements. A full kitchen with microwave, toaster oven, drip coffee pot and Kuerig K-cup. Dishwasher, washer/dryer and bath with a shower complete the first floor.

The second floor features a primary bedroom with a queen bed, a second bedroom with twin beds (which can be converted into a king size bed), and a full bath.

Launch your kayak right off the back lawn and paddle your way through the lobster boats moored in the harbor. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are just a short drive away as are wonderful restaurants, shopping and all the charm of the quiet side of the island.

    Wonderful one week stay at a comfortable, well-appointed, well-maintained property. Our host, Paul, had excellent communication and responded promptly when needed.Beautiful setting and quiet location. The home had all the amenities needed, fully-stocked kitchen and comfortable surroundings, inside and out. Beds were great, and the entire house was clean and well maintained. Highly recommend this host and property.

    The house was clean, was pet-friendly, and the kitchen was well equipped. There is a deck in the back overlooking the harbor and excellent sunsets.

    It was a perfect vacation house for our family of 4 and a small dog. First time visiting Acadia. Great location to explore the park. Quiet inlet to watch beautiful sunsets and have a fire to cook some s'mores. The town of Southwest harbor is just down the road and has a couple of great restaurants. The house is very comfortable.

    Fabulous setting on the water. Newly. Renovated kitchen. Washer and dryer. Meals on the deck. Absolutely clean. This was our 4th year at this cottage, and we look forward to next year.

    This was our third stay and we didn't think it could be improved but this year we were welcomed by a newly renovated kitchen that kept all of the charm while adding seating and cooking space. As ever, Paul is a very responsive and helpful host.

    Been wanting to explore Acadia for years and found a few days that worked for everyone and happy we finally made the trip! Renting bikes from Southcycle to ride through the park was very fun and taking an aqua safari on kayaks with MaineState was a memorable experience. We loved the sunsets and being so close to the water and town. We had our fill of blueberries and lobster and have a new favorite flower - lupine! House was perfect for our family of four.

    This was an amazing place to complete our month long trip to Maine! This home was spacious, clean, well stocked and in a great location. We were less than 10 minutes from Southwest Harbor, which is a great little town. It was easy to get around from here and lots of great hiking, eating, and exploring within minutes from the door. The house is on a fairly busy road, but that was never an issue and we were able to play with our dog off leash in the back yard, which leads down to the waterside. The upstairs shower is short, but wasn’t a problem for my wife, I showered downstairs and didn’t find it too dark, nor too small for a stall type shower. Paul, the owner was awesome! He originally agreed for us to check in early, but when a wind storm knocked down limbs in the front yard, knocking out electricity, he notified us immediately, allowing us to sightsee on our way south from Lubec. Paul’s communication was timely and helpful. Thank you, Paul! We would definitely stay here again if we make it back to that part of the world! I highly recommend this VRBO!

    Paul’s home away from home is truly a gem! The quieter side of the park is paradise. We enjoyed playing ball with our dog and evening fires in the spacious backyard. The sunsets are heavenly! I could go on and on………

    We enjoy being on the “quiet side” of the island. But we still have easy access to hiking and biking. We love launching our kayaks from the back yard. And the view is fabulous. I’ll also add that the house is always spotless when we arrive.
