Two out of three beds were very uncomfortable. The kitchen had no empty cupboards for the food and staples we brought. Pots we used had to be scrubbed first. Coffee pot was not cleaned out. Somewhat musty smelling. The view was beautiful as the porches overlooked the bay. Upon arrival there were car tracks down the lawn closer to the front door so we unhooked the chain and drove down. One of our family members was still healing from an injured back so getting closer to the door was helpful to unload. However, when we came back after an outing the chain across was padlocked on both sides so we could not get closer to the door. It would have been nice to get a notice ahead of time that they were going to do that. We never heard a thing. Lugging all our things back up to the parking area was a lot.

Good no frills vacation cottage. The bay view was the best part. We would use it again.

Its a good basic cottage for vacation. The view on the bay is fantastic. It fit the needs of our family well. The early mornings and evenings were particularly peaceful and enoyable.
Beautiful views, enjoyed both porches. We also got to watch the seals in the morning! Fairly close to Bar Harbor/Acadia.
