A perfect getaway
A lovely property with a beautiful rustic cottage. The attached deck is perfect to sit, relax, and enjoy the falling leaves. You are only a few miles from Acadia National Park and walking distance from the harbor. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Perfect location
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!

Perfect location and experience
Quiet location in the woods was a wonderful spot to unwind after long days of hiking. Enjoyed the fire pit, exploring the woods, and we enjoyed the uniqueness of an A-Frame cabin in the woods. Vicki was an attentive, and responsive host. Provided us with fabulous hiking recommendations to explore parts of the park we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. We would recommend this property to anybody. Thanks again we hope to be back!

The ideal Acadia vacation with pets
My adult daughter (and our dogs) stayed at this absolutely perfect cottage and enjoyed three days of hiking. The cottage seems really new although the lovely owner said they have been renting for 14 years. It was really clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It feels like you are in the middle of the woods but just a minute from the cute town and a very short drive to all of the trails. There are three rental cottages on the property and would be wonderful for a family reunion or larger group. We would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Incredible little cabin in the woods near Southwest Harbor
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Woodland Cottage 3 in Southwest Harbor Maine. It was clean, delightfully appointed, and in a gorgeous wooded setting very near downtown. Great central location for exploring Desert Island and Acadia.

Natural setting only a short walk to town
We love this place because it has all the feel of a camp, but it’s walking distance to southwest harbor shops and restaurants. The air conditioning and heat also made the difference with the crazy weather. One if the beds in the loft is a bit lumpy, but otherwise this place is super comfortable and clean.

The cabin was great big enough and well equipped for what we needed. It’s walking distance to the southwest harbor shops, but tucked back into the woods away from it all
