Echoes of SW Harbor

Both the private location and setting of the cottage was perfect for a quiet getaway.Vicki provided all the essential amenities (and then some) and was resident on-site throughout our stay.Located within a short-walk to: breakfast/ lunch cafes, drug store, hardware store, and dining/ bar venues........also, a short-drive to groceries and [of course] Acadia National Park destinations.

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.

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!

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.

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!!!
