"Quiet cabins! Helpful staff "

"This was mine and my husbands' first trip to Maine and Wanda made us feel right at home. She was always quick to respond and helpful with advise and recommendations. This little Dyers Bay cottage was such a nice place to come back to after an afternoon of exploring the area. We were blessed with perfect weather and temperatures and the sunsets were beautiful. We missed the sunrises because, being from KY, we never realized that it gets daylight at 4:30am, lol. We wish it was that way in KY :)...

"The cottage was nice for what we needed which was a place to shower and sleep. It was a little further from Acadia National Park (about 45 minute drive one-way). Allen was very kind and welcoming. The grounds were in need of some care and we are pretty sure there was a mouse in the cottage."

"I enjoy finding tiny house options for my vacation stays. This one fit the bill perfectly! Clean, cozy, and charming. Not to far from local attractions but far enough for quiet nights slumber."

"Very clean and comfortable."

"Enjoyed our stay again. Nicely appointed cottage in quiet neighborhood close to the water and Acadia national park."

"Post card views. Great to decompress and relax."

"We enjoyed our four nights at the cottage. It was very clean, well-maintained, and had some great touches - like the cabinet lighting in the kitchen and beautiful quartz countertops. The view from the deck was amazing, and we enjoyed watching the seagulls, ducks and geese in the mornings and evenings. The cottage was extremely close to Acadia National Park, allowing us access to multiple trail heads on the quiet side of MDI. Overall, a great stay."

"This Maine cottage has everything you need for a quiet stay on the Southwest Harbor side of Acadia National park - only 15 minutes away. Kitchen is well equipped. Cove that it is on is quiet. Would definitely come back again."

"Great solo trip option and completely as advertised. Nice spot for getting to the National Park especially the less explored Schoodic Peninsula but not a taxing drive to Mount Desert Island either. Great small town with several eating options along the main road. Cabin was nice for charging devices and keeping drinks cold and refreezing ice packs. Even the portapotty was clean! Beautiful scenery right on the water, nobody out in the bay when I used the kayak. Would highly recommend this spot if...

"The view was wonderful!! We enjoyed the deck and also all the windows. Our 3 days there were not enough; we will keep Idle Hour II on our list for a future trip!"

"Gorgeous location, as described. The bed was a bit firmer than our personal preference, but there were other options for sleeping. Spent most of the trip on the spectacular deck! Thank you."

"The cottage was better than we had hoped for .The dock was awsome."

"Everything was great. Best & unique location. We used our e-scooters and e-bikes. Host was top notch with easy communication. We are going back!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed our getaway to Southwest Harbor ME. Christy had everything set and ready to go. The house is clean and has all the necessary touches for a perfect stay."

"Nice place to stay for our trip to Acadia. Nice and clean. We would stay here again."

"As soon as my spouse and I walked in, it was almost like a magickal getaway! The lighting, the smell, the atmosphere overall was so relaxing and warm and inviting! Amanda had so much prepared and setup for easing into our vacation, getting comfortable, having the little things ready for the morning. The yard is on a forest active with birds and squirrels and other critters - even saw a wild turkey! AMAZING PLACE! Wonderful! Thank you!!!"
