Great location. We took a ride on a lobster boat, went to Bar Harbor, went to Cadillac mountain, and drove the park loop. We really enjoyed the island and its beauty. "

Staying in SW Harbor was perfect for us as it was a little removed from the busy Bar Harbor area but close enough that we could easily get there & enjoy it for the amount of time we wanted.

"We were not aware of the drive into the property at night. That was a little. Concerning, But by morning, we were much more comfortable about where we were. When we drove into the driveway the first evening, there was a very large deer sitting in the yard and that’s what we drove into. Funny but also scary. It is a beautiful home and decorated very nicely and the rooms worked out great for my friend and I. Very well stocked with all you need for your stay."

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (122)
"We are NOT camping people. This property was so wonderful that we got the full benefits of camping, while still retaining all the comforts of home. We actually used the word “home” a lot told refer to our yurt. The other thing we kept noting throughout our stay was how “thoughtful” every detail was. This place is high quality and truly awesome."
