Elegant oceanfront home on Southwest Harbor minutes to trails and village center

What an amazing location and a perfect house for two couples. The views of the ocean are amazing and having it near a working boat yard was really cool. The most underated aspect is being located in Southwest Harbor. There is not a better area on MDI for food, hiking, and sunsets.

Like-new home with a great view of Southwest Harbor. The house is right on the water - the porches are over the water at high tide - in an industrial stretch of Shore Drive. The location next to Hinckley Yachts is not a downside - we enjoyed watching them transporting the big yachts and lowering them into the water. Great base of operations for hiking and biking in Acadia, or exploring the villages, gardens and trails of the “quiet side.”

Bucket list destination and wedding anniversary weekend. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay. Clean, quiet, easy access to the entire area. Host was excellent and made our stay special. Highly recommend.

Our stay at this Southwest Harbor home was absolutely perfect! The views of the working harbor were stunning — we loved watching the yachts come and go throughout the day. The location couldn’t have been better: peaceful, quiet, and close to everything we wanted to explore. It truly made our first trip to Maine incredibly memorable.We spent mornings on the deck with coffee and a book, and during low tide, we wandered along the shore searching for sea glass and interesting rocks. Every moment felt relaxing and special. We can’t wait to come back — this place is a true gem!

Fantastic view of bay when entering cottage. So comfortable for two couples. Well stocked. Loved Peter’s Trout restaurant within walking distance. Hope we can return someday soon.

Lovely view of a working harbor

We planned a last minute vacation, and we were very lucky that this home was available. Stacy was so kind and easy to contact. She made sure the place was ready before we arrived, and even had extra bedding available for us if we needed it. The home is extremely clean, decorated well, and had amazing views. The water is incredible. It's also very conveniently located to Bar Harbor and Acadia. We had a wonderful stay and would love to come back again soon!

Prestine house on water, close to town. Hiking was next level fun!

What a beautiful place. Amazing views and large decks. There is a parking spot on site. Fun to watch the tides and hunted for sea glass when tied was low. Quiet location and still easy to drive everywhere. There are some restaurants nearby including “The Upper Deck” with a large menu and great view. We enjoyed watching the boats launch a couple times a day but it wasn’t noisy. When we pulled ourselves away from the view, we enjoyed the nicely decorated home. If we are in the area again would love a repeat stay!

Very nice house with beautiful views of the harbor

Beyond perfection. Immaculate. Beautifully furnished up to magazine photo quality. Negates staying anywhere else on the island. Watching tide come in and out under the building, the views, the boat loading dock across from home meant never being bored. Best ever.

Absolutely lovely house, well equipped, tastefully decorated, and spacious for a family of four! We had a great time - including during a very grey and rainy day when it was delightful to spend time in the house and watch the weather over the bay. Would come back any time!

This cottage was very comfortable for my family of 4. It’s supremely clean, well thought thru new interiors, well stocked with the essentials. Great views of the harbor from the 2 level decks, specially from the upstairs queen suite. It was a rainy weekend but the house was super cozy to stay in! However the listing doesn’t mention it’s a stand alone cottage next to a port. It was interesting to see them dock the yatch etc but would have been nice to know. Another nice to know inside the house would have been that the upstairs queen suite is accessible via a spiral staircase and that the bedroom doesn’t have a door The downstairs bedroom is sort of tight around the bed, has a door which is covered by curtains but no option to lock.

A friend and I try to get to SW Harbor every spring. We booked this property for the first time and it did not disappoint. The view from the deck was tremendous, especially when watching the large boats being put into the water. Would book again with no hesitations.

This is a truly stunning property. It is right on the water and you could not ask for better views. The property was very well maintained and clean. A perfect stay on the quiet side of the island.

Awesome place and location . The only downfall was the spiral staircase . My in laws were looking forward to the upstairs king bedroom but bc if the spiral staircase were not able to make it up . Also TV in upstairs did not work for our child with us .

Nicely decorated and equipped. Great view. Special place.

We absolutely loved this cottage. The views were amazing. It was updated and so clean. We loved every minute and will definitely be back again.
