10/10 Exceptional! (7 reviews)

The location and view of this property was excellent. The staff gave good dining recommendations. The fire pit at night with s’mores was nice. We were given a nice bouquet of flowers at time of check in. The morning breakfast was a bit different. The kitchen was stocked with eggs, cream cheese, yogurt and condiments and pastries. You were responsible to make your own breakfast in the kitchen.

8.6/10 Excellent! (209 reviews)

When we decided to visit Acadia national park we looked at several different options. This one stood out as the cottages have their own space with fire pits and grills. The staff is super friendly and answer any questions and gave amazing suggestions! On the drive out we ran into a little traffic and when we texted the staff to let them know. They offered to get us supplies so we could relax. I wish we could give them 10 stars! We have decided that when we come up each year this is our spot! Thank you for helping create memories that will last a lifetime!
