Very clean and still had that "new car" smell. Had everything we needed for our short stay. Recommendations for food were on point. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerie M. Sep 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay! We really enjoyed staying at this property! The owner provided all the information we needed well in advance so there were no surprises. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay - even enough coffee for that first pot! The beds were so comfortable that I was actually sad to leave them even through we had a lot of fun activities planned. The trail that was behind the cabin was not only very clearly marked but was also meticulously maintained. You can tell that the owners put a lot of time and effort into making this an enjoyable path and we really appreciated it! The only things I can think of to make it slightly better would be to have two fans instead of one (one for each bedroom). Everything else was awesome and we'd stay here again in a heartbeat! ##### Valerie M. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joshua M. Jun 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy and clean! Perfect place to call home base for our Acadia adventures! ##### Joshua M. Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary R. Jul 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place! Great little cottage in a very quiet area. If you don’t mind a bit of a drive back and forth to Bar Harbor it’s perfect. The property itself was fantastic! Had everything you could need. ##### Mary R.
