    This was a great place to stay in Acadia. We had five grown people in our group and we fit completely comfortably in the house. Everything was clean and well stocked; we did not want for anything. The grounds are so well maintained and great fun to hang out in. With a cheerful fire and some cold drinks, hanging out on the patio apres-hike is a perfect summer vacation activity. It's close to the Travelling Lobster and Island Takeout as well. The host is perfectly communicative and had a wonderful welcome package waiting for us. Stay here if you can!!

    Beautiful vacation home. Had an extremely well stocked kitchen and lovely outdoor deck. The bedrooms were very spacious and comfortable. We all enjoyed our stay. It was an easy spot to explore Mount Desert Island from. I would highly recommend this rental. Jean had everything set up for us and was easy to communicate with.

    My adult family enjoyed our week-long stay at Moss Mountain Cottage. It was very clean and comfortable in a convenient, yet private location. Beautiful, thoroughly maintained backyard, with a deck and also a fire pit with chairs. Good communication. Jean responded quickly to messages and stopped by for yard maintenance

    Nice quiet spot tucked away in the privacy of a wooded lot. The landscaping and fire pit add to the relaxing atmosphere. Owners were very responsive and left a wonderful welcome gift. Easy check-in / check-out. Short drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Enjoyed our stay.

    Our grouped loved this property, and we would most definitely stay here again if our travels bring us back to the area. Quiet, well-equipped and very comfortable. All of the previous praises are well-deserved.

    This was a magnificent VRBO. My kids remarked when we finished out trip that, I think this was the nicest VRBO we've ever stayed in! It was the perfect size for our family of 4 + in-laws. The kitchen was well-equipped and had all the basic staples we needed for our week. The beds were comfy and the rooms were large. We especially enjoyed the patio and secluded setting to relax after our days hiking in Acadia National Park. Bar Harbor is also close. Make sure you stop by the Travelin' Lobster for lunch if you are at the cabin during the day! It's very close, very delicious, economically priced, and very popular.
