Lovely cottage

This cottage had everything we could need or want. The owner lives on the property and is very kind and helpful. You couldn’t ask for a better location. It was very close to all attractions and yet very quiet.

Anniversary Trip

This was honestly the best vacation we have ever been on. The cottage had everything we needed and it was very cute. We were able to prepare full meals when needed. MDI is very beautiful and we can't wait to come back and explore more of the beautiful area!

July Honeymoon

Property was cozy and secluded, exactly what we wanted for our national park honeymoon! Kitchen was well stocked and temperature was easy to control. The water pressure in the shower could be a little better but in a small place like this it’s to be expected and didn’t affect our enjoyment whatsoever. Beautiful stay!

Acadia N P trip

Very nice, cozy house with a relaxing setting. Great outdoor space. Has everything you need inside (even coffee!) Convenient location for hiking in Acadia N P or going into Bar Harbor without the hustle and bustle of staying in Bar Harbor. Host was friendly and very welcoming.

Absolutely wonderful!

Everything about our stay was perfect. Somesville is a great location from which to explore the island; our cottage was so cozy, well appointed and comfortable; and our hosts, Merilee and Ken, were two of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. We are sad to be leaving, but we know we’ll be back!

Great little cottage

Great little cottage centrally located between the west and east sides of MDI; made travel to most locations around the island only a 10-15 minute drive. Quiet neighborhood and communicative hosts. I recommend Coffee Matter/Mother's Kitchen just up the road for your daily coffee and pastries.

Great little cottage on MDI

Excellent stay! The location is perfect—close to everything in Acadia, yet just far enough to feel peaceful and quiet. Communication was fast, friendly, and incredibly helpful. The cottage is spotless and absolutely charming and the bed was super comfortable. Keep in mind it is a cottage not a big house - still plenty of room for 2 and so much better than a hotel. This was our first trip to Acadia, but fingers crossed we can stay here again for future trips.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hawthrone cottage. This was a perfect location for our visit to Acadia and the surrounding area. The cottage is peaceful and quiet, charming and cozy, secluded and conveniently located. It is clean and well kept. We enjoyed seeing the deer visit most every evening. Marilee was a wonderful host, very helpful, and easy to talk to. Check-in is straight forward. We highly recommend staying at the Hawthorne cottage.

Great Little Cottage

Host is very responsive and helpful. Kitchen and bath well stocked. It is tight quarters, but folding door separates the bedroom from the living area, for your partner that wakes up early or stays up late. A good home base on the quiet side of the park.

Lovely Stay

This cute little house was the perfect place for my planned trip with my boyfriend. The place had everything we needed and was in a fabulous location. Nothing was too far or too close; it was away from busy crowds but still in a central location that made everything pretty accessible. The host was also so sweet and communicative. We came into town pretty late into the evening and she was still very responsive! I definitely recommend this place!

Benefits of the quiet side

Somesville is uniquely situated for access to all that busy Bar Harbor and Acadia NP has to offer. But it’s so much more - laid back, tranquil and beautiful. Host Marilee generously shared that knowledge helping me to enjoy the history and explore natural wonders that best exemplify “the quiet side”.

Honeymoon Happiness

We chose this cottage for our honeymoon, and it was everything we hoped for and more! Cozy, serene, and neat, it made for a perfect home away from home. It was centrally located to all our adventures exploring Acadia and MDI. We were just as excited to return to the cottage as we were to explore! Check the local newspaper on the chest for local happenings and events that are definitely worth checking out! We will hopefully be back for a future anniversary trip!

Quaint, peaceful and quiet stay, 6/17 - 6/21

I would highly recommend booking. All the comforts of home and more. We saw a doe and her fawn behind the cottage, what a sight to see! Only 15 minutes to downtown Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park, We enjoyed e bike riding the Carriage Roads, Echo Lake Beach, and dining in downtown Bar Harbor. Ivy Manor has outside fire pits we enjoyed with a cocktail after dinner. Merilee was very attentive and quick to reply. A memorable vacation, thank you!
