About this property
Cozy cottage nestled in the woods with walking distance to town.
#2 Cottage located in the woods on the quiet side of M.D.I. Pet friendly. Walking distance to town and the Great Harbor Marina with more than a dozen restaurants in the area as well as the Island Explorer Shuttle Bus System (June 23 to Columbus Weekend) to almost everywhere on M.D.I. and Acadia National Park. Minutes to Acadia, hiking, biking, kayaking, swimming, mountain climbing, bird & whale watching,. Built in 2012 this is a two bedroom cottage with a large loft master and one bath. The loft has a king size bed with lots of space and two half-height storage closets, the big bedroom has a queen bed with hanging and dresser storage, the small bedroom has twin bunk beds and dresser storage. The kitchen is open to the living/dining area with a cathedral ceiling. We can accommodate more people in our other cottage (Homeaway #956783) if you have a large group or family gathering. The whole interior is knotty pine with laminate wood floors throughout. There is a heat pump in the living room for either heat or air conditioning. The outside patio is pea stone with a barbecue grill, picnic table, chairs, lounge and steps down to a pea stone firepit area.

About the host
Hosted by Vicki Beal

Doug Beal, Jr. a 5th generation, lived in Southwest Harbor his whole life. He and his wife, Vicki, owned a Marine Construction and Diving Business for 41 years. They decided to start a retirement business, so, they began building seasonal rental cottages. Doug completed 3 of them before he passed away in the summer 2015 ( Homeaway #956783 and ). Vicki is carrying on the business that she and Doug started, together.
The three cottages can house 14 happy vacationers, (for a group looking to vacation, together), or rent one for a family. Woodland Cottages I, II and III, all have great holiday appeal ~

Why they chose this property
When I am building these cottages, I build them the way I would want them as if I were going to live in them. I try to make them very compfortable, quiet and private. I am pleased with both of them.
