Perfect fall weekend

Location was perfect, it felt so private but was super close to downtown. Very cute cabin, with plenty of space. Access to Acadia was quick too, as well as to food and gas stations. 10/10 would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Clean, cozy, quiet, close to town

Great place to stay in Southwest Harbor and close to Acadia National Park. Wooded enough to be quiet and secluded enough from other cabins and to hear birds and see the occasional deer. I'd definitely stay there again; highly recommended.

Acadia Woods Retreat

Listing perfectly described this amazing getaway cottage. Felt like we were in the middle of the woods, but we were actually just a five minute walk from all of the restaurants and shops in Southwest Harbor. We liked it so much that we booked a week at one owner's other cottages next door for next summer!

Woodland Cottage stay

This is a very special place. It is exactly as described and had everything we need for a comfortable stay. The deck is a great space for relaxing after hikes and checking out some wildlife. A short walk to town but feels very private and it’s quiet. Vicki is a lovely host.

Great location in Southwest Harbor on the "quiet side" of MDI.

Plenty of trails and things to do on west side of the island while still close enough to all the east side attractions to not be a hassle. House was cozy, clean and quiet. The washer and dryer were big plus Only issue was the lack of blinds on the upper windows meant the kids wouldn't sleep in much after the early June sunrises.

Perfect Acadia getaway!

My family of four and our dog enjoyed the seclusion of this property as well as the ability to walk into the quaint, but well appointed town of Southwest Harbor for dining and shopping. Vicki’s cottage had everything we needed and was a great headquarters for our excursions around Mount Dessert island! Everything we wanted to access were within short, scenic drives. The cottage was clean, comfortable and Vicki was very responsive. We highly recommend this home away from home to anyone and everyone looking for the perfect Acadia getaway!

Most Wonderful Lodging!!!

This property was exceptionally clean and well stocked. Very good location and we loved Southwest Harbor. Our Host, Vicki Beal was world class. She answered all of my e-mails very quickly and really made us feel right at home. We enjoyed seeing the deer each day as they grazed outside our windows. Would definitely stay at this property again if we visit this area. Thank you Vicki!!!

Peaceful retreat

The cabin is on the " quiet side" of the island which we loved. It was clean and well maintained. We loved sitting on the deck and just staring at the trees. We were here a bit before peak season (again a plus for us to get away) so some of the businesses were just opening back up for the season. There is a steep driveway with a few bumps that our SUV handled fine , but we were grateful we didn't have our low clearance vehicle. Thanks Vickie! If we ever are back in the area, we would definitely book this again!

Cozy Cottage

Lovely cottage. Beautiful wood walls and floors, very clean, organized and well equipped. Minor inconvenience of only bathroom being on different floor than bedroom if you are older ( like I am ) and need to use in middle of night. Bathroom could have used more shelves and some counter top space. Had to hold Waterpick while using it because there was no where to put it down without it sliding off of the cute pedestal sink. Also could have had more places to hang towels. Had to put in dryer each day to make sure they were dry for next day use. Other than those minor inconveniences we had a lovely time and enjoyed our stay very much.
