A beautiful Location

An amazing place that is right in the heart of the western part of mount desert island. So close to the Seawall and some great hikes and southwest harbor. An easy drive into the eastern part of the park and Bar Harbor.

We had a great time staying at the Seawall cottage. It was the perfect location in distance to Acadia and the rest of Mount Desert Island, we drove all over the island and hiked/biked the northeast, southwest, and northwest parts of the island. Thank you for such a wonderful stay! We loved seeing the wildlife in the mornings and evenings.

Seawall Point Cottage

Very nice & convenient place to stay & explore the quiet side of Acadia National Park & Mt. Desert Island. We enjoyed our time there. There is a nice porch attached to the cottage where you can watch deer & turkeys in the yard. We enjoyed time spent at the cottage as much as the areas we visited. The cottage was perfect for my wife & I. The hosts are very friendly & we would definitely stay again.

This is my second stay at Seawall Point Cottage. Connie and Steve are wonderful hosts and always helpful if you need anything. After a long day exploring the park, this is a nice peaceful place to come back and relax. The deer and turkey that come through the yard are always a highlight for me as well!

Lovely little cottage at the end of the world

I really enjoyed my stay here in Southwest Harbor at this nice quiet little cottage. It was perfectly located between the scenic Seawall just a 15 min. walk in one direction, and a great Lobster and Seafood Restaurant just a 3 min. walk in the other direction. Did lots of walking and hiking, and checked out Bass Harbor lighthouse, Echo Lake, and a few other attractions.

Great location for Arcadia visit

The cottage is small but the location is a huge advantage. Walking distance to Seawall, Arcadia loop and Bar Harbor just a short drive away. My favorite part of my stay was the family of deer which were in yard every morning and evening. Charlottes lobster was across the street and had great food and outdoor music that we enjoyed on the porch. Would definitely return

I can't say enough positive things about this place. Although I am familiar with Maine, this was my first time at Mount Desert Island. It certainly did not disappoint. It has to be in the running for the happiest place in the country if not the world. Smiles all around. That aside, the cottage was clean and well stocked. The owners were friendly and accommodating. What more could you ask for? 5 stars.
