    Location was perfect to walk around Southwest Harbor. View of harbor could not be surpassed.

    This was the perfect home for our first visit to Maine! The house was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. It exceeded our expectations. Jessie was quick to answer all of my questions before and during our stay. Being right on the water really added to our vacation. The patio furniture and adirondack chairs are comfortable and give a variety of seating options (sun, shade, on your own, with the group). Walking distance to town, where we enjoyed shops, restaurants (Little Notch, Bub's Burritos), and ice cream at the Salt Shop. Close to everything on the quiet side of Acadia, and just a 20-25 minute scenic drive to everything else we wanted to do on the other side! The kitchen has everything you need. There are plenty of bath towels, beach towels, and blankets (handy for cooler nights on the patio with the Solo stove). The garage apartment is adorable and let the 'older folks' go to bed early without having the 20-somethings worry about making too much noise. We all agree this was the perfect vacation rental and we all want to come back!

    The house was exactly as advertised. We had a wonderful stay, with fantastic views. After a day of hiking and sightseeing, coming back to a property as accommodating as this just made our day. Our host was quick to answer questions, and was even willing to extend our stay due to the airline delaying and canceling flights. She was super helpful. Should we come back to Maine, this will be where we stay!

    This was a last minute trip and we could not have chosen a better place. The view is amazing and the layout of the house was perfect for us. We loved having bathtubs not just showers. The stars at night were indescribable. Thank you Jessie for such a comfortable home. It made coming back to our house in South Carolina after Helene rejuvenated enough to get through the clean up. We will definitely stay again and cox our granddaughter on a plane to come with us.

    Overall a very nice and clean place. Kitchen and baths were a bit dated (think: grandmas house) but functioned well. The apartment above the garage was great when I had to do some remote work unexpectedly. Beds were comfortable and wide selection of pillows to suit all. Wifi was acceptable but lagged when we had the TV and computer running at the same time. Loved being able to walk to shops and restaurants in town.

    We had a perfect stay at Jessie’s. The house is very comfortable, neat, and very well stocked with everything you’d need. The bedrooms are large and comfortable. The highlight are the gorgeous direct ocean views! Jessie was great to communicate with and super helpful. Thanks!

    Wonderful place to stay. Our grandsons enjoyed the kayaks. Easy walking distance to restaurants, museum, bike rental, bakery, causeway. Short drive to Acadia National Park.

    Four adults (mom/dad/2 grown kids) and one 13 yo. This place has everything a family could want. Bar Harbor close, went in every day. Hiking, biking, and highest level climbing available (right up road in SWH or BH area, u pick). Bonus two kayaks used daily. Can walk/bike to SWH (easily). Separate apartment above garage is nice for privacy if needed, plenty of sleeping room. Fire pit overlooking harbor out back (front ?!?!). Jessie is great to work with. Will definitely return!

    None of us had been to Acadia, and this house was perfect for 2 50-something’s and 3 20-something’s. Plenty of space, abundant supplies (toilet paper, towels, kitchen-wares, even extra toiletries), beautiful sunsets and water access, and walk-ability to a small town. It’s especially great if you don’t want to stay in Bar Harbor. We spent most evenings by the fire pit, and cooled off in the brisk harbor after our hikes. The owner was responsive before and during our stay, and we could not have hoped for a better house for our group. Thanks Jessie!!

    Tucked away in a quiet area. Within walking distance to restaurants and small downtown of Southwest Harbor. Loved our stay.
