I liked the cozy cottage feel of the cabin. Plenty of space for three couples with a well stocked kitchen and living room.

This spot exceeded my expectations which were high to begin with! The location is private and peaceful… perfect with our little pup. We woke up to beautiful sunrises from the house and enjoyed the front porch, back deck and fire pit! The decor inside is so welcoming and the amenities are extensive… the game room provided perfect family fun! Just what we needed! Thank you so much for a special weekend!

My family and I loved our stay here! We loved how quiet it was, how much land we had, and the privacy gate by the fire pit was especially nice! It was very clean when we arrived and it had what we needed for cooking supplies for a breakfast and dinner at home. The game room was amazing…we had so much fun hanging out down there! It was an easy drive to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia! We would definitely stay here again!
