Very clean space, kitchen has all the essentials to cook, and you can walk down to the beach during low tide! We were very sad that Perry’s lobster shack wasn’t open as their pier was being rebuilt but they should be up and running by mid-June. Overall, great place and highly recommend for a relaxing stay!"

"I was very pleased with this vacation rental. The location is great. It is tucked away in the woodlands, but it is only a short drive away from Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. It is cozy and comfortable, especially after a long day of hiking in the surrounding area. I enjoyed sitting outside and soaking up the late afternoon sun on the outdoor patio. The owners are very friendly and easy to contact. As advertised, there are no cooking amenities, but there are plenty of great eating...

Cozy Cabin on Blue Hill Farm
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (23)
"We enjoyed our stay very much. If it had been warm enough to enjoy all of our meals outside that would have been wonderful. We didn’t plan or pack for any rain but when it poured for a solid day, we were thankful for the cabin’s shelter and wifi and umbrella when we went out. Although we brought an infant and a 2.5yo, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this property for such little/young kids unless you’re prepared for spotting them up and down the ladder. We loved the hanging indoor swing and our...
