Amazing Stay!
We had the best time exploring Acadia and being able to stay at this amazing home! It literally had everything you could possibly need. It was so clean, comfortable and peaceful. Being greeted every morning by the cute little deer was an extra bonus. It was great being walking distance to the Bass Harbor Lighthouse and a 4 minute drive to the Wonderland Trail. And close enough to end most evenings in Southwest Harbor. Looking forward to returning in the future!

A serene base to explore Acadia National Park & MDI
Not only was the property as listed and pictured, but we found it extremely well-appointed which was so convenient and appreciated. It was clean and an excellent layout for our family - and the kids really enjoyed the playset outside! The biggest draw of this property is how calm and serene the location is. It's an oasis from the very crowded part of the island, but also very close to very interesting attractions like the Ship Harbor trail and great food spots. We enjoyed the mornings and nights on the deck, looking at the deers that always visit and listening to the sounds from the sea.

A perfect fit for our family
Wonderful stay at Driftwood Cottage! Very child-friendly, clean, and filled with thoughtful touches throughout. We truly wanted for nothing and our stay was very easy. We particularly the firepit and swingset, which made kept our kids happy. Very quiet and peaceful location--a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Acadia. Everything was as advertised and we would come back again. Thanks for everything!

Amazing place to stay
Enjoyed staying at this property. It was very close to a bunch of major locations as well as a great restaurant called Archie’s lobster. We were able to get to a lot of the Arcadia attractions with 20 minutes, which is exactly what we were looking for. We were far enough away that we were in the middle of the woods. The kitchen was well stocked, and they had so much firewood to enjoy in the evenings. Thanks for the amazing stay.

Driftwood cottage is secluded, clean, and well-equipped. We enjoyed sitting on the porch listening to the buoy bell ring and watching the baby deer. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. My husband appreciated that the kitchen was well-appointed. We will definitely be back.

Great stay, beautiful spot
The house is really cute and comfortable. It worked out perfectly for my family if 4. My kids especially loved the playset outside! It was very nice to be able to walk to the Bass Harbor Lighthouse, because parking down there was a little chaotic! The only thing to note is if you are sensitive to dogs and have allergies you may want to bring your allergy medicine along. The house was very clean, but if you have allergies you know!

Jun 23 to 30 Bar Harbor trip
We very much enjoyed our stay at Driftwood Cottage. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed to help us enjoy the area during the week. House was extremely clean and well suited for our family of 4. The kids loved the bunkbeds and swing set. The yard was open and we enjoyed the deer that visited each day. Location was great for accessing everything around the island. The owner even put in a window air unit in the master that was very helpful for my wife. Highly recommend this VRBO!

Well-Appointed House, Quiet Stay, Great Location
Joseph and Christina's house is a quiet, clean, well-appointed house in a great location. It's on the quieter side of Mt. Desert Island (which was great for our family). Bass Harbor Head Light is right down the road (walking distance), and the lovely little town of Southwest Harbor is a short drive up the road. Bar Harbor and the big sights in Acadia NP are a just a short drive away. We loved our stay at Driftwood.

Comfortable and Well Stocked
The house is very well stocked with all necessary supplies. We stopped here for 4 days during a Canada/East Coast drive and it was everything we needed for a short stay. The house has a lot of great details if you're traveling with young kids! The location was OK, it is on the quieter side of the island but we found that most days we needed to drive over to the Bar Harbor side of the island (especially for groceries). The proximity to the lighthouse was great. Overall it was a great stay and we would consider staying again. Thanks!

Wonderful home, beautiful property!
This house was perfect for us. It was very clean, comfortable, and beautifully furnished. It felt like home. We saw a couple of deer every day. Such a treat. We also went to the Bass Harbor light just down the street. We highly recommend checking it out. If we ever get back to Acadia, we will stay here again.

Fantastic stay on the quiet side of MDI
We really enjoyed staying here with our family on a trip to see Mount Desert Island (MDI) and Acadia. This was our kids first time being to MDI and having this house was perfect. The yard was great so they could run around and play on the swing set. Also, the kitchen was very well equipped so we were able to make multiple meals (you bring your own groceries) without having to go out. This makes it much more pleasant when traveling with kids. Our kids also enjoyed the multitude of items available for them to play with in the bunk room (crayons, drawing books, etc.). Last time we came to MDI we (as a couple) stayed in Bar Harbor. Being on the quiet side of the island was perfect for us. Two of the most kid-friendly trails on the island (Wonderland and Ship Harbor) are minutes from the house by car. One of the highlights was how close this is to Bass Harbor Head Light. We were able to walk (about 5-10 minutes) on an evening where there was a beautiful sunset which meant **lots** of people wanted to go see it too. There was a line of cars to get into the tiny parking lot and we just walked right in. LOL For our family, this was a fantastic stay.

Nice retreat!
We enjoyed our stay here for 3 nights. It was within walking distance to the Bass Harbor light house and very close to some great restaurants and shops on the "quiet side" of the island. Bar Harbor, Acadia, etc. very easily drivable. The house was very clean and we were SO grateful that all basic amenities were provided. It is on a secluded street with plenty of privacy. Enough so that we were a little apprehensive when we first drove up because the surrounding houses and the yard looked a little shady like from a horror film, but we're still alive and nothing unusual happened so we'd probably come back again. :)
