About this property

Watch the video at the end of the photos that displays all aspects of this beautiful cottage and it's surroundings. This adorable sea side cottage located on the pebble beach of SW Harbor is literally over hanging the water at high tide. A second floor master king suite with private balcony, bath, wet bar and refrigerator has a magnificent view of the harbor and mountains of Acadia National Park. The second bedroom is a queen suite with private entrance to the first floor balcony. Just 2 miles to Seawall Beach of Acadia, an easy bike ride or walk for many. Some may not leave the cottage at all and just watch the boating activity from the large relaxing decks. If you do explore the island, you'll find many beautiful hikes, shops, restaurants, golf, museums, cinemas and more .

We have stayed here twice. The home is beautiful, the view is gorgeous and the host is easy to contact. A fantastic, comfortable place to stay outside Acadia and Bar Harbor!

Wonderful Rental

The property was perfectly located, it was immaculate and the amenities were extensive. It had everything you could have wanted. We were there just before hurricane Lee and watching the Hinkley crews remove the boats from the water was entertaining. we look forward to staying there again. Dealings with our host were quick efficient and responsive. Thank you!

Great Place to Stay

This property redefines oceanfront. At high tide the water surrounds 3/4’s of the house. The house is beautiful and in a great location! The owners were very attentive and helpful. We loved it here. Only thing to note is that the property is next to a working boatyard. Work can start as early as 7:00 AM. For us it was really fascinating sitting on the deck and watching boats being lifted out of the water and put back in. Always something happening!

Great View of the Harbor

A beautiful location right on the waterfront in Southwest Harbor with a great view looking across toward Somes Sound. The house is as advertised and in beautiful condition. I have stayed at the location twice ( first time was before it was totally renovated and upgraded by the current owner). The only thing to be aware of is that the house sits right next to the Hinckley boatyard, that is a pretty busy place in the summer with big boats being frequently hauled and put back into the water. While that just adds another aspect of working harbor life, it can get a bit loud at times during the day with the equipment they use, especially in early morning. But since the house does have air conditioning, you do have the ability to shut the background noise out. Other than that, it is a perfect location to explore the island from.
