Wonderful cabin on MDI

I can't say enough positive things about our week staying at Mike and Dee's cabin. The location is perfect and exactly what my family was looking for on the quieter side of the island. The cabin is very warm and welcoming and is hugged by a number of beautiful trees. It is so peaceful and private, yet close enough to town to walk. The cabin had pretty much anything you would need. We loved Acadia and hope to have another visit in the future! Thank you Mike and Dee for sharing your cabin!

Great location for our group!

We felt right at home thanks to Mike and Dee’s thoughtfulness and recommendations. The cabin felt as though we were staying at our grandparents that wanted us to enjoy and love the area as much as they do. We appreciated all the art from local artist in the house. There were two families, 4 adults and 4 kids(13 to 6) and we felt we had plenty of room. The deck around the house and perfect temperatures allowed us to spread out. We enjoyed walking down to the cove and harbor and getting ice cream in town. I wish I would have brought bikes to explore around more. A lot of what we did was within a few minutes of cabin(lighthouse, echo lake, flying mtn hike). Getting to Acadia main entrance and Bar Harbor was easy and now I can’t imagine staying anywhere but on the quiet side of the island!

Retired couple who are getting to enjoy our wonderful home in June and come back in Sept and Oct. During July and August we are in the Pocono Mts where we get to enjoy our grandsons.

Why they chose this property

We bought this home because it was on a quiet street in a great little town , away from the crowds of Bar Harbor, and still close enough to enjoy the park and all it's beauty.
