Great location with very respectful and responsive host. Would go there again for sure if I were in the area. Only thing that I would love improved is the hot water availability. We were three of us and if everyone showered one after the other, the water would be cold for the last person. Overall was a good stay.

Beautiful, spacious cottage!

We had an amazing long weekend at the cottage.Very convenient to Schoodic point and Winter Harbor. It is literally steps away from the water. Beautiful views throughout the day. Very easy access to the ferry over to Bar harbor, which is really fun.

Perfect location!

We loved the location! The house was clean and perfect for our group of 4 adults. It’s beautifully situated on the water and very close to the Schoodic part of Acadia.

Peaceful and Scenic

An amazing cottage for the two of us, in our seventies, on the coast of Maine. The views of the ocean, so very close, were just lovely. Sunrise, sunset, the punctual rise and fall of the tides. It was so quiet and peaceful there. We loved watching the bird activities. Schoodic Peninsula is nearby and the wave breaks there are thrilling to see. Easy drive to Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Tidal falls, and really great seafood restaurants. We would definitely like to return and would recommend this location to others.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mona’s property. The surrounding area is beautiful and we enjoyed taking day trips. We had to communicate with the owner and she replied immediately. If we return to the area we will definitely see if this property is available.

Gem in Winter Harbor

So glad we stayed here! Excellent communication with host. We played games at the kitchen table over looking the bay and watched the sunset from the chairs in back yard. The view was beautiful! We liked having 1 1/2 baths to get us out the door quickly, the washer/dryer, as well as a stocked kitchen for making dinner after days out exploring. We found Winter Harbor a perfect location for a long day trip to Mount Desert and Bar Harbor. The Schoodic Peninsula was our favorite side of Acadia and 10 minutes from this place. Winter Harbor had nice places to eat, very friendly residents in town. Close to Corea fishing village for catching lobster on boat tour. Hope to stay here again when in the area.

Ideal Location …peaceful aura

This sweet cottage is literally a few feet from the high tide water and a short walk to restaurants and the town market. Although the kitchen was well appointed for cooking…we elected to take the 5 minute walk to the Treehouse Seaside Grill both nights…very good! A walk up Schoodic Head, a bike ride around Schoodic loop road and a scenic trip around Grindstone Neck rounded out the day we had in Winter Harbor. We will be back!
