This apartment rents Saturday to Saturday. Little Island House is a two story home in Bass Harbor, on the water, with two apartments, an Upstairs and a Downstairs apartment, which are totally separated. One enters the Upstairs level by the outside stairway to the deck and sliding glass door. Step into the living room area, with a floor-to-ceiling granite fireplace and cathedral ceiling with skylight. Airy and light, it has large windows facing the harbor on three sides, a sofa and coffee table, ROKU TV, two armchairs by the fireplace. The dining area follows, with an oval wooden table and four chairs, two corner lamps on small tables. The kitchen, with tile counters and hardwood floor, is well supplied and has a great view of its own. You'll find everything you need for cooking (including a lobster pot), coffee, or wine. Four burner gas stove, fridge. Kitchen linens. Cleaning supplies under the sink. A study area at the foot of the stairs to the bedroom is perfect for setting up your computer, writing, or 'working from home' (high speed Internet). The third-floor bedroom, with skylight and window, has a queen-size bed, large closet, two dressers, and louvered windows that open up inside to the cathedral ceiling and stone chimney. The bathroom/shower are around the corner from the kitchen. The apartment sleeps two. It has central heat for the off season, excellent ventilation in summer, and all the firewood one would like. All linens (bed, bath, and kitchen) are included. Immaculately clean, lovely decor. No smoking, no pets. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Glad to be on 'the quiet side': Views are beautiful. Bass Harbor has been photographed for the cover of a National Geographic book about New England and has been the site of several movies. The lobster fishing boats are always interesting, and if you love wildlife, eagles soar over the harbor daily. We counted twelve herons in the low tide one September day and have watched loons, ducks, terns, and gulls work the harbor. Although we're only thirty minutes from Bar Harbor, we are essentially very different. Bass Harbor is a small fishing village and working harbor on the southern end of Mount Desert Island. We're called 'The quiet side of the Island.' There's plenty to do here: The Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse, Wonderland and Ship Harbor (part of Acadia National Park) are only a mile or two away. At Little Island Marine, the small boatyard which shares the peninsula with the house, Island Cruises makes nature trips Monday through Saturday, and charters private fishing or sailing trips. Restaurants are within easy walking distance. See reviews on Tripadvisor.

This property is located in a very quiet neighborhood with the best views of what makes Maine iconic - mountains, water, boats, fog, wildlife. It was simply a spot that was good for the soul. We were torn each day with exploring and hiking or sitting on the deck to enjoy the changing tides and the beautiful sunsets. It was clean, so well stocked, and had hosts who were receptive to our questions. I honestly hate to share information on this little slice of Maine and keep it to ourselves, but share, I will! Make the reservation, and enjoy! Thank you for being a huge part of our ninth stay in Maine. We do love it there! ##### Laurie B. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claire H., Cary, North Carolina Aug 21, 2018 #### Stunning views, super convenient and superbly appointed rental I knew the property would have wonderful views...and it didn't disappoint! Based on other reviews, I was expecting it to be nice, but wow! First impression was that it is bigger than I thought it would be. That's always a nice surprise! It was spotlessly clean and the kitchen is top notch with fabulous appliances and finishes (no ice maker, but there are ice cube trays). We cooked a lot of our meals and there wasn't one thing missing from the kitchen in terms of supplies and even spices. We steamed lobster twice (bought them at Thurston's across the harbor) in the lobster pot. The bed is super comfy! The big fireplace came in handy one chilly morning. The owners are very responsive and truly want you to feel at home... The harbor is endlessly interesting with all the lobster boats coming and going. The dock near the house is the departure point for Island Cruises which we took and it was FANTASTIC! We saw eagles, seals and got to learn a bit about the lobster fishing trade. It's an easy, scenic drive to Acadia and even more so to the spots on the Quiet side. One thing to be aware of is that there are a lot of stairs and they're a bit steep going up to the entrance and there are also stairs up to the bedroom from the living area ...if climbing stairs is a problem, this is probably not the place for you. Other than that, I couldn't recommend this place more! ##### Claire H. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Judy S.

The home is clean, the host have provided everything you would need for a stay. There is great communication with the hosts. Lastly, the town has lots of restaurants and shops and is not too far from Bar Harbor. There are many great hikes just minutes away and several ponds for paddle boarding/kayaking.

So spotless, in fact, that you could eat off the floor! There wasn't a even a mark on the wall! The watercolor of the Little Island House hanging on the dining room wall was beautiful as well. And we couldn't have asked for a better view. Waking up each morning to the sunrise and enjoying the sunset at night was incredible! It was so quiet and serene even with a tourist attraction next door and neighbors below us! I would recommend this place to anyone. Charlene, you outdid yourself! We didn't want to leave but we hope to come back some day. David and Linda McLean ##### Linda M.

We enjoyed everything about this rental. It is one of the best-stocked VRBO’s I have stayed in. We wanted to stay forever! ##### kate f.

The cottage was perfect and met our expectations ten fold. This property is of the nicest VBRO properties we have rented over the years! Being on the quiet side away from all the people and the touristy places was perfect for us! The sunsets views every evening were a bonus! Thanks Charlene for everything! ##### Alexis S.
