"We had a wonderful winter stay at Mermaid cottage. The kitchen is well appointed with new appliances. The decor is simple beach cottage vibe with comfortable furniture overlooking a working harbor. While my husband worked at JAX lab in Bar Harbor, I worked remotely from the diningroom, looking up occasionally to watch the lobsterboats and birds putter or fly by.We did not use the upper floor. It has a spiral staircase and low ceiling but the lower floor but we did not need the space. The first floor is large, light and airy -- very spacious for a couple and a dog.This cottage is located on the quiet side of Acadia which we prefer as we like the serenity, wildlife and hiking. We shop en route at Standard Bakery in Portland or Notch Bakery in SW Harbor for bread and stop in Ellsworth for groceries but there is an IGA and other small markets nearby. there is also a wonderful outdoor market cart outside the SW Harbor libarary to srock up on reading materials. The Bass Harbor Library is stupendous.I walked to Bass Harbor lighthouse through the snow and played fetch with the dog on the strip of nearby beach daily. The snow was falling when we arrived, but the owner thoughfully had shovelled and salted before our arrival leaving supplies in case we needed more. One of the neighbors kindly plowed us out after another snowstorm.Justin, the host, was welcoming and attentive. We can't wait to return to this cozy cottage by the sea."

"Enjoyed our time there. Laundry facilities were great. Kitchen facilities were great. Couldn’t get the tv work. No coffee. Liked proximity too seafood restaurant. Great communication with the manager. Easy checkout."
"Super new and clean. Loved the open floor plan for visiting after our hikes in Acadia. Beds were very comfortable. House did not lack in any necessities. It was about a 35 minute drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Not exactly easy to run back to the house if you wanted a mid day break, but we knew the location when we booked and enjoyed the quietness of neighborhood. The host was extremely responsive. Would definitely stay here again. "
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Acadia Escape! Having Blue Lobster right next door made it possible for our group of 20 (9 A/11 kids) to vacation together comfortably. Found everything to be as advertised and have no complaints. Host responded immediately when we had a need. Would return to this property!"
