"The house was so spacious with clever use of space. The thoughtfully stocked snacks in the kitchen were much appreciated after a long drive. The instructions to park and enter were perfectly detailed. I really appreciated not having a long list of mandatory cleaning instructions upon check out, creating less stress. We enjoyed our time in the park and with family. 100% recommend!"

"The location of this property is ideal for visiting Bass lighthouse, taking in various hikes, visiting unassuming Southwest Harbor!
