Sit at the desk in the loft to write out your postcards while taking in the view. Enjoy the sunrise over the harbor as you sip your morning coffee on the deck and watch the harbor come to life. Then enjoy all that the island has to offer, but be sure to be back in time to catch the breathtaking sunset. As the sun sets behind you, watch the light illuminate the boats in bright white with a pink glow on the entire harbor.

Situated on the quiet side of the island, you can enjoy the real Down East Maine away from the crowds, but still be within minutes of world-famous Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor.

Regardless of your interests, this cottage and surrounding attractions are sure to make for a fulfilling vacation!

Come in the Fall-Beautiful Foliage, lower rates! The months of September and October are a fabulous time to come to 'Harbor Daze' House. The rates are lower, the crowds have left, the weather is comfortable and the foliage is spectacular!!

    This property was perfect for us! Located on the “quiet side” in South Harbor we were able to walk to the small town to eat and shop, and were close to some less populated trails. We also had easy access to the park and to Bar Harbor. The house was well stocked with everything we needed, clean, and had beautiful views! We had deer in the yard one morning

    The house was immaculate upon arrival. All rooms were stocked with linens and towels. The hot tub was well maintained. Everything was excellent and went above expectations.

    Overdue review from our stay in August. This place was literally perfect for us--the on-line description/pictures are 100% accurate (unlike some that use clever photography to make the place look bigger than it is), the kitchen is roomy and well supplied, and it was very clean. It is within walking distance to the shops and eateries in South Harbor, and the wall of window in the front look out over the harbor. When the fire pit seemed to be missing, the owner answered my message immediately and it was quickly sorted out--including her offering to send someone late at night to retrieve it from the basement storage area! The whole week was like that--whenever I had a question, she was quickly responsive. It was a great week--and since my partner suffered an injury a week before we traveled and was mostly house-bound, what a relief it was to have such a nice place. We enjoyed evenings by the fire pit--and were joined by deer almost every night! Will 100% look to stay here again if/when we return to Acadia--it is very handy to the park! Thanks, Amanda, for being such a great host--we are grateful!

    This is our second stay at Harbor Daze; that in itself explains our high ratings.We prefer the “Quiet Side”of Acadia. Access to Carriage Roads is easy and popovers at the Common Good is a must whenever we are in the area. This is a great nonprofit supporting the local community.The house was clean and the hot tub was a treat after biking ! Communication with Amanda was easy and incredibly fast. We are likely to return again !

    We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The house was very clean and had all the amenities that we needed. Amanda was very prompt on responding to any questions and providing us with different options to see and eat. Southwest Harbor is approximately 20 minutes from Bar Harbor. It is a real quiet and quaint area. Watched the sunrise at Seawall. Drove all around the island. Food was great. bar Harbor is busy, but beautiful. House is across the street from a large marina. Nice sort walk to see it. We would recommend this place. Thanks

    Love the Southwest Harbor area and this location was a walk into town and short drive to ocean at Seawall. Hot tub was a treat after days of biking. And Amanda was amazing with her quick response to any concerns.
