About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Little Brook Cottage Mount Desert Island “Pet Friendly”

The cottage is studio-style with a full kitchen and bath. Decorated with a classic theme. The space feels like being inside a little fairytale house. The cottage is behind the main house on the property.

A short car ride from unlimited walking trails. Just up the road from the Bass Harbor light house, and a short ride to Bar Harbor.

Away from the Bar Harbor crowds but close enough to discover everything our island has to offer.

Discover Mount Desert Island from your own, quiet suite. Free buses (the Island Explorer), ferries across to the "quiet side of Acadia" - Schoodic Point, festivals, and more.

Come home after a day of sightseeing or hiking to your cozy suite and relax among the beautiful landscape.

You'll love your vacation at Little Brook Cottage.

Cozy base for exploring

The cottages easily accommodated our family group of five adults and three children. The beds were comfortable, and the well-appointed kitchen enabled us to cook meals. There were many thoughtful decorative details to boot.

Lovely little cottage with easy access to the western side of Acadia NP

Enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It’s location makes it quick and easy to access trails and sites in the western half of Acadia. I was really pleased with how well stocked the kitchen was and was easily able to make multiple different meals throughout our stay. The main bed was also really comfortable. Would book again if I ever came back to the area.

Perfect Cozy Cottage

My two teenagers and I spent three days at Little Brook Cottage and loved it! Robbin has done an excellent job of making sure guests have everything they could possibly need and does an excellent job of communicating and responding to all questions you might have. The cottage is beautifully decorated and felt very clean. Should we ever be back in the area, I will definitely look into staying here again!

We loved it.

A bit tight on space, but not a big deal. It was clean, quiet, comfortable, and is located close to all great restaurants, attractions etc. It had everything you would need in the kitchen from making a snack to cooking a full size meal if you wanted to. We spent a lot of time hiking in Acadia National Park, and when we would come back to the cottage it was a welcome sight. We would most certainly stay her again.

Great Spot for 2

This converted garage/cottage was a great place to stay for two adults! The space is laid out well, but if you are traveling with more than 2 people it will be tight. Comfortable bed and the kitchen is well-stocked with pots/pans/other cooking appliances. The tap water is not potable, but there is plenty of purified water provided. The fire pit outside is a nice spot to relax! Be sure to bring bug spray if you are traveling in the spring/summer. Home manual has lots of great suggestions for places to eat/shop and spots to book activities. Overall a great stay. Only ran into the other guests staying on the property once and they were very friendly. Would certainly stay here again.

Perfect quiet, peaceful and cozy retreat.

My husband and I just finished our stay at Littlebrook Cottage and were thoroughly pleased! The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed and was extremely clean. The location is very quiet and peaceful so we were able to really enjoy cooking out and sitting around the fire pit. The property is located close to the Big Cottage but the owners have done a great job keeping things separate so it felt like we really had our own space. It was also a very quick drive to Seafood Ketch where we watched a gorgeous sunset over dinner one night and to the cute little town of Southwest Harbor that has quite a few different dining and shopping options without all the crowds of Bar Harbor. We also had our Golden Retriver with us and loved that after our days spent hiking and swimming that there was a bath outside just for hosing down our dirty, happy pup! The property is close to many different hiking options including Bass Harbor lighthouse and Wonderland trail which both had great views of the water. Robin was super helpful and available getting us situated for our stay. All in all a great property and great location. Highly recommend!

Perfect Quiet Space

I loved this location away from all of the busyness of Bar Harbor. The cottage had everything I needed for cooking there, and after a few nights on the road with questionable showers, the heat and pressure of the shower were amazing!

Not a quiet little cottage

Property owner was not present at check in. I messaged him for arrival and entry instructions and only received address and was told there was a lock box on the door. Upon arrival, we eventually discovered the door was unlocked with a lock box on the handle. Less than 5 feet from our bed was a dehumidifier that had instructions to empty when full…VERY LOUD. We didn’t bring in our luggage as everything smelled like a damp basement. There was a binder on the table with a list of instructions. If you don’t follow the instructions on the remote for heat/air, you will be charged $100 for a repair person to come out to fix. Also, for EVERY 15 minutes beyond your 10am check out time, you will be charged $50. Rules posted everywhere…kitchen, bathroom,etc. We left at 7:30 am. This was not the place for us!
