A late October haven

Visiting MDI a little later than we usually do in the fall, we were delighted that The Greenhouse could be our base of operation and haven. It is charmingly located in a meadow on the edge of the woods, with deer, turkeys, and other wildlife all around. The house itself is comfortable and fun, with everything that a visitor could need. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with the Scottis and their four-legged friend, Pip, and would recommend The Greenhouse to anyone visiting "the Quiet Side."

Acadia National Park visit

My husband and I were hiking in Acadia and were looking for a cute, quiet place to stay. This place was perfect. Elena had the sweetest gift basket waiting there to welcome us. She had a ton of great recommendations about the area that we used. The place had everything we could have needed. It was rainy while we were there so we did the two puzzles she had available which was very fun. There is also a cute patio area with chairs where I sat and read my book and enjoyed the sunshine. I would definitely stay here again.

Barn style retreat in Southwest Harbor

The Greenhouse is a spacious, sunny, two story building with an open floor plan downstairs (kitchen, dining area, living area) and two bedrooms/ bathroom upstairs. The larger sun filled bedroom is also a great place to hang out, with large windows, skylights, and comfortable furniture. As well, the outdoor patio and expansive yard, easily accessible through French doors, offer a great place to relax, play or grill your dinner. The kitchen cabinets are open (no doors) and make it easy to find all the well appointed cooking needs. The location is very quiet and private, yet very close to town. The gardens are beautiful and we enjoyed watching the many hummingbirds. When we were not out exploring all the area has to offer, we really enjoyed just hanging out here at the Greenhouse. We would definitely return here for another stay.

Wonderful stay

We have stayed in many VRBOs and this was by far our favorite. We went in August and I was concerned about no AC, odly we did not miss it at all. As a trained chef I was shocked with the kitchen supplies. I had everything I needed including various seasonings. The location was perfect, quiet and secluded area. The owners special details were also amazing. There was a book library in the shelves and I found a book to read during our stay. Lots of interesting boardgames too.
