Every year we rent this lovely cottage and every year the owner continues to enhance our stay. This is the only rental we repeat annually. It now feels like our home away from home.

This cabin was amazing! The location back in the woods up the end of the road was a welcome retreat after days exploring the island and Acadia. The deck was perfect for coffee in the morning or drinks at night. The sunrises were beautiful to watch from our own bedroom. :). Fire pit was so cool to have and the wood provided was perfect . Vicki was a great host and we’d definitely come back for a stay in the future.

Perfect location and all the amenities in a cabin-like setting. Easy to walk to town (just walk down the long driveway) but just as lovely to relax feeling away from it all. The deck was perfect and we had a nightly firepit with the fully stocked solo stove. Laundry in the outside area was very much appreciated as were the games tucked away inside. We loved every minute of it!

WONDERFUL!!

Our second time here. It is a lovely cottage with great location. After the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor this meticulous and quiet cottage is a perfect place to unwind with a plus of a fire pit with wood provided each day. Highly recommended !!!!

We absolutely loved our stay here. It was quiet, well- appointed and you can’t beat the location. We loved having the balance of feeling that you’re tucked away in the woods but able to walk anywhere to town was a pleasure. Highly recommend Southwest Harbor!

About the host

Hosted by Vicki Beal

Host profile image
Doug Beal, Jr. a 5th generation, lived in Southwest Harbor his whole life. He and his wife, Vicki, owned a Marine Conctruction 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 #3498723 and #3498716 ). Vicki is carrying on the business that she and Doug started, together.
The three cottages can house 19 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 ~
