We had a great stay! The house was clean, comfortable, and in a good location for exploring Acadia. Everything we needed was there, and the host was very responsive. We’d definitely stay here again!

This was a perfect place for two “trail sisters” to land after hiking each day. I always enjoy staying on the quiet side of MDI. Thank you!

Jennifer,
It sounds like the absolute best way to experience MDI—hiking the trails by day and resting on the quiet side by night. I'm so glad it was the perfect landing spot for you both. Hope to host you again on your next trail adventure!

We had a really great and relaxing visit to Wicker Way! It is situated in a quiet neighborhood, away from the bustle of Bar Harbor. It's an easy drive into the park and over to Bar Harbor, and we enjoyed all the towns and villages in between, especially Southwest Harbor.All of the essentials we needed were provided. There were just two of us, but there's room for family in the extra two bedrooms. We enjoyed quiet mornings with coffee and all we needed for a restful stay. Thank you for such a great property!

A very comfortable house—& bigger than it looks in the pictures. Beautiful yard and great location on a quiet road. Private, with 2 porches. (But this is Maine, so bring your mosquito repellent ) Our dog loved it too !

We loved our stay in this cozy cottage on the quiet side of Mt.Desert Island! The property had everything we needed and access to the park and great hikes was easy!

Great property near Acadia National Park. The house was exactly as described and the cost was fair for the location and amenities. Well worth a stay here.
A quiet location and a great jumping off point for adventures in Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor (Udder Heaven and Mainely Meats were a great find!).

Check in was easy, the house was nice and clean and had everything we needed. Very peaceful area but not too far from all the things we wanted to do. We really enjoyed the fire pit outside!

Our family had a great visit at this cozy cottage. We are glad we stayed near Bernard, much quieter than the Bar Harbor area. The cottage was clean, quiet and peaceful. The space was just right for our family of five. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here.
