We absolutely loved our stay here! The house is beautiful and clean and had everything we could possibly need. The area was quiet which was perfect for our family. We hope to come back here again soon!
It was a wonderful property for us and our twodogs. Yard is very pet friendly, and house is extremely comfortable and well equipped. Very quiet neighborhood but close to all activities. We loved it!
Absolutely wonderful stay! Zero complaints. It was a perfect and pleasurable stay for our family. The location was lovely and perfect for a respite after busy days of hiking and exploring. We will be back!
We had an excellent stay at Driftwood Cottage. It was very clean and comfortable and had all of the things we needed. It is located on a quiet road and we really enjoyed coming back to the peace of the cottage every day after being with the throngs of other visitors to Acadia. Wish we could have stayed longer!
By far the best VRBO I have experienced. Amenities are above and beyond what one would expect. For our girls trip we looked for a unique place that would allow us to experience the island. We found the ideal peaceful place with plenty of room for our stay. The owners thought of everything you just might happen to need to make your stay the best it can be.
We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you to the owners. You do a great job. The house was neat, clean, and has just about everything you could need. Perfect place for our vacation for our family of 5.
Perfect spot to experience Arcadia NP and surrounding area. House is located down a very quiet road so very peaceful with great deck to chill out. Kitchen is very well appointed. Hosts perfect communicators.
House was perfect. Quiet area with walking distance of lighthouse. Beds and house were comfy and clean. Living room was bright and deck was perfect for morning coffee. Would stay again
We had such a nice week at the cottage! Loved the location on the quiet side of the island, especially being able to walk down to the Bass Harbor Lighthouse to watch the sun set. Our boys loved playing in the huge yard. And the cottage was clean & gave us plenty of space to hang out between our outings exploring Acadia.
This was the perfect, private home for our weekend getaway to Southwest Harbor! The front yard is huge and our kids loved the swing set out front. The fire pit was so nice to hang around too. The home is within walking distance to the Bass Harbor Lighthouse and a quick 5-10 minute drive into town. There’s so much to do and see in the area, I just wish we had more time to spend there!
We loved our stay at the cottage! The home is very clean and well-stocked. The kids loved the yard and firepit, and we loved doing the three local trails. After being tired and dirty from hiking, it was great to wash up, do laundry, and enjoy the strong wifi and big tv. We appreciated the guest book and its recommendations as well.
This property exceeded my expectations. It was clean and spacious and the hosts provide so many thoughtful amenities, from a dog crate to art supplies for the kids. I can't say enough about how great this place is. The location is quiet but easy to get to and the home is decorated nicely and immaculately clean. What a find!
My friends and I recently stayed here for a friends trip. The house was even better in person, very clean, extremely well stocked, and in a great location. Walking distance to the Bass Harbor lighthouse. Highly reccomend staying here for your next vacation!!!! One of the best rentals I have ever stayed at.
This was a fabulous property. It was very comfortable, clean and with everything you could possibly need. The setting was beautiful and peaceful and well located for Acadia, beaches and hikes. It was nice also to just relax there. I can’t recommend this property enough. Thank you to the hosts who thought of everything!
This was probably one of the best stocked vocational rentals we have ever stayed in. Everything you need is provided. The place was so clean and was the perfect size for a family of 4 with two teenage boys. The location was amazing. It is just a half mile walk from the house to the bass harbor lighthouse and 25 minutes from the Acadia visitors center and the start of the park loop road.
We had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and had so many thoughtful extra amenities. Great hosts and beautiful location! We loved our stay on the 'quiet side' of the island.
