Beautiful, private, dog-friendly space!

If you’re looking for a pet-friendly stay near Acadia National Park, look no further! We enjoyed being away from the bustle of Bar Harbor with room for our fur baby to be outside while relaxing after sunset. We found the adorably decorated apartment clean and comfortable. Laundromat, restaurants, and grocery stores all nearby. Wonderful!

Adorable space

We loved having a clean relaxing space to come back to every night after a long day of hiking. We were also amazed at the noise control as we heard absolutely nothing from the upstairs apartment. The hosts were so kind and responsive. We would definitely stay again if we ever get the chance to return.

Wonderful Stay!

Dawn’s place was absolutely lovely! Located in small town of Southwest Harbor it’s very walkable to lunch and dinner places as well as shops. Also very easy to drive to local hikes, Acadia NP, and Bar Harbor. The place itself was clean, tidy, and perfectly situated for my wife and me, along with our dog. Planning to visit again!

Amazing property!!

We loved this property so much! The inside was perfect for the two of us and our dog. It was very comfortable and spacious with a full kitchen. The yard was amazing to walk the dog and just so peaceful to sit out and look at. The location was very convenient to walk 5 minutes on sidewalks to Main Street with delicious coffee and breakfast and dinner spots. It was also only 10-20 minutes to Acadia hiking trails and Bar Harbor. The host was very friendly! We would highly recommend this rental and would love to come back and stay again!

Just do it

We loved staying here and will definitely do so again the next time we are on MDI. The studio apartment was bright, cheery, and very clean. The queen bed was very comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, and the shower was great. For those with dogs, this is the place to stay. Just open the door and let your dog out for walks the lengthy mowed paths. Just do it.

Wonderful location; really well done space!

My dog and I had a great week with Wes and Dawn. Walked into town almost every day and found a close path (down the street) that opened up to the Ocean for my pup to swim. Such a comfortable place after many days of long hikes and so nice and quiet to sleep with the windows open with a great breeze.

Amazing Location & Perfect Spot

We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay for our MDI vacation. Right in the heart of downtown SW harbor we were able to walk to all the town has to offer. Dawn’s property is absolutely breathtaking and she is such a lovely host. The cabin although smaller has the perfect layout to fit 4 and a dog comfortably! Clearly so much thought went into the design.

Peaceful and beautiful southwest harbor property

We love southwest Harbor and this property is in a great location within walking distance to town. The space is very cleverly laid out so that you only see a beautiful field and it feels very private. Everything is new and clean. Dawn was very responsive and attentive. Great place!
