This cottage and location is perfect in every way! The cottage is lovely, with attention to every detail. Very updated and very well stocked with everything you could need. The bed is very comfortable. Lots of amenities. Tastefully decorated. The property is right on the water and the views are breathtaking. We sat on the deck each morning for our breakfast and tranquil is the best description. Quiet! And we occasionally heard the call of the loons! Bar Harbor, and all it has to offer is about an hour drive, and we did go over there each day. But it was well worth the drive to be away from all of the noise and commercialism in the evenings and mornings. I cannot recommend this cottage enough !

From the owner: "Thank you for you great review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. See you next time!"
My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Prospect Harbor. The rental was pristine, well stocked, very homey, and the grounds were gorgeous! It was the perfect spot to relax and unplug while still being close enough to key spots for hiking and exploring. Owners were super nice and ensured we were not without a thing! We cannot wait to return to this very same property next year!
From the owner: "Thank you Jenn for your wonderful review. We appreciate it very much! See you next year."

Lovely property and sweet owners! We felt right at home. We got to see the moonlight over the ocean watching the tide come in over the rocks.
