Incredible views overlooking Southwest Harbor and beyond.

Host very responsive.

Marvelous sunrise views from the back deck and upper floor. Very quiet and secluded. Upper floor bathroom required a large rock to shut-would not latch. Fairly anemic water pressure, although no lack of hot water for our 12 guests. Kitchen was fantastically equipped except ice maker never worked and microwave was small and not built in.

Everything about this property was exceptional. The location is perfect for families, couples, and in our case, high school classmates from Mississippi celebrating their 70th birthdays! There is so much to do in Acadia and this property is the perfect launch pad for any activity that people in your group might want to enjoy. Nearby hiking, boating, and sightseeing. The house was immaculate and very well supplied. The spice drawer was amazing! Beds were more than comfortable, and linens were excellent with plush bathroom towels. I'd highly recommend this location for any group. We look forward to coming back.

Perfect house for large group. We had 9 adults and never felt crowded. Very open floor plan and the kitchen was a 6 out of 5. Loved the path to the downtown SW harbor area. Location was great for Arcadia and Bar Harbor.

Comfortable home with beautiful views.

13 of our family all had great space, private bathrooms, extraordinary views, the best stocked beautiful kitchen ever and room to roam. We even had deer and wild turkeys roaming the property. We couldn't have dreamed this to be any better! JUST PERFECT!! Susan was a great host too!

The house was perfect for my family’s trip to Maine! The location was perfect as it was away from the crowds of Bar harbor, but only 30 minutes at the most for everything we wanted to do. The house had plenty of room for everyone to have some space. 6 1/2 bathrooms was great. Our favorite room was the kitchen where we cooked everyday but one. my grown children loved to take the path to town and beyond.we had a fabulous week at Susan and Andy’s home!

This was the perfect house for our extended family. We had three generations there for the week, it was perfect for a big group. The house has incredible views, is very well stocked, and is just a great layout. The path to town was easy, and the house is well situated to many hikes and lakes on the quietside, and not too far from the rest of the park and Bar Harbor. Highly recommend!

Great house with room for many. The view was truly spectacular. 3 generations enjoyed a weeklong vacation with lots to see and do.

We loved loved our stay, the house was perfect, the views amazing. Susan our host is the best. The house has verything u need. Fully functioning kitchen.

Island Watch was an absolute gem! We gathered there for a family vacation and could not have asked for a better setting! The house easily accommodated our family of 10 adults with room to spare. We were all impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked! It made cooking at the house very enjoyable! The views from the living rooms and decks were incredible! It was very quiet and close to many trails with awesome views! Also, easy to get to other locations of Acadia! Our host, Susan, was wonderful and very accommodating. Would definitely go back again!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The views are breathtaking, home is super clean and kitchen is to die for! Would definitely return!

The house was AMAZING! The location and views were outstanding and there was plenty of space for our group of 13 adults to sleep and to gather. It was the most well stocked house any of us have stayed in. The owners were the best and were so communicative and easy to work with. 10 out of 10 for us!!!

Excellent property! Beautiful views from the deck. Plenty of room for gathering and enjoying each other’s company. Great location for discovering Acadia and surrounding communities. The property owners were fantastic and welcoming. I can’t say enough good about our week in southwest harbor!!

The house was great, it has a fully stocked kitchen with everything you would need. Take a quick look before shopping there are spices, olive oil, bug spray etc. Store is a quick 5 min ride. There were 12 of us and never felt crowded or loud. Bedrooms were virtually sound proof, sometimes a rarity in an older home. There are many amazing hikes nearby right in SW Harbor. We really enjoyed the quiet side of the island and didn't mind the driving with Acadia and Bar Harbor being a 30 min drive. We loved the ability to walk into town via the path behind the house and go to the cafes and dinner. The views are beautiful.

Perfect home for 3 generations. Comfortable beds, plenty of bathrooms, deck with a gorgeous eastern view. Very well appointed kitchen. Owner very responsive and easy to work with. Gave us good suggestions. Hiking trails nearby that aren’t as busy as main part of Acadia. Southwest Harbor is quieter side of island but easy access to Acadia NP and Bar Harbor. SWH has excellent restaurants, bakeries and ice cream!

A beautiful oasis just far enough from the traffic of Acadia but close enough to easily reach everything we wanted to see and do.

Wonderful time in beautiful Maine with all our children and grandchildren

Cozy, fun loving. Great hikes and swims. Beautiful views from porch! And a wonderful kitchen to cook in. Friendly and helpful hosts.

Perfect for our group-lots of space to spread out and great rooms to gather in. The wildlife-foxes and deer-kept us all entertained. The view was incredible!

This was a magnificent house for our family of 10. There was an extra bedroom beyond what we needed, so a large space. The common areas were large enough for everyone to spread out but close enough to interact. Wonderful, spacious, well stocked kitchem.

Wonderful property for a family vacation, we were a group of 11, ages 16 to 82. There was enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all to be comfortable and space to be together or time alone. The amenities provided went above and beyond anything I have experience in any other rental house. The views over the harbor were outstanding and the location was very convenient to get around Acadia and Bar Harbor. Great communication with Susan before, during and after our stay. Thank you
