Spectacular Host and Location
Christie was a first class host and made the entire experience a pleasure. She was flexible and made our stay a real pleasure. The home was incredibly charming and in an incredible location close to the restaurants in south harbor. We were very comfortable in the home and had everything we could ask for in our stay.
It was nice being on the quiet side of Acadia and we enjoyed the quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The property was clean and well appointed. We were very comfortable and it was very quiet as we like at night.
We would love to stay again.

Nice place to lay your head after Acadia visit
Christy was great! The place was just the right spot to go back and forth to Acadia. Whales Tail was clean and the right size for a couple. Visit the Upper Deck next door during season

What a great place! Had everything we needed to be a perfect home base as we explored Acadia and the surrounding areas. Communication with the host was prompt and helpful and the accommodations were just right for our needs. The outdoor cooking and dining area made it easy to enjoy the view of the marina and harbor. We will definitely be back!

Great way to visit Acadia
The property is just past the center of Southwest Harbor and located near a marina, so you can see the water. It was easy to access all the sites of Acadia from this location. The cottage is new and everything is in good working order. If you plan to cook, you do need to take the limited kitchen into account. Still, it met our needs well.

The best! Seriously!
From the get go we had a great experience. Our booking had a security issue which was handled immediately by Christy. She was prompt, thorough and thoughtful. Our arrival and entry was painless. Her and her families attention to detail is unmatched. The home was spotless, up to date/new, charming and the perfect place to come back to after a long day adventuring. The loft was our daughters favorite! The lack of cooking space suited us just fine- we often ate local baked goods for breakfast, a loaf of toasted local sourdough or a bowl of cereal. Lunch and dinner we enjoyed out. The proximity to Acadia is unmatched. Just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor. It has a spectacular harbor view ; we encountered daily fog which was a bummer for those early morning/ late evening porch hangs.
It’s a short walk to a little downtown area with just enough shops, we enjoyed the flamingo festivities and purchased local artisan momentous skipping the run of the mill shops in BH, found a cute sourdough bakery- Seafolk Sourdough which was a fun find and delicious. Hiked our way though many trails of Acadia finding wild blueberries along the way. Dined and enjoyed Bar Harbor and even went to the Mine Lumberjack Show- what a fun and entertaining rain filled evening- especially for our 6year old.
Seriously- this home was hands down one of our favorite VRBO rentals- we look forward to a return trip as we just didn’t have enough days to explore all that Acadia has to offer!

Perfect home base for Acadia exploring.
This was a great spot for our family on our week stay exploring Acadia. It’s on the “quiet side” of the island but still walkable to a very cute strip of shops and restaurants. It’s an easy drive to Bar Harbor on the days we headed that direction. There are a lot of good hikes that start in just a 5-10 min drive from the house. We used the grill to cook multiple nights and had everything we needed. The fire pit was great for s’mores with the kids and has a great view of the harbor. Everything was comfortable inside. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect for our needs
Cottage is well located on the Quietside with many thoughtful touches. The property owner even dropped off flashlights on a particular Lu windy night when she thought the power could go out. It didn’t but we felt well taken care of. Had we been there during Summer the outdoor spaces also liked very inviting. I would definitely recommend.

Our Stay at The Whales Tail
This little cabin near the docks was clean, beautiful, and the perfect place to stay!
It is in a great location, everything in the cabin was spotless, and felt as cozy as home.
I have stayed in many different cabins on the island over the last 2 decades, and this by far was the best kept, most modern, and I would definitely recommend this to any looking for a cozy getaway!

Verbesserungswürdig: Lage und Genauigkeit des Onlineauftritts
Very clean and nicely updated, but it doesn't have a kitchenette.
This property was very clean and nicely updated. The view of the water, the fire pit, and outdoor table were very nice. It is nicely decorated inside and has many of the things you need. However, to describe this is a "kitchenette" is highly deceptive. It needs a work surface and a sink in the common area to be called a kitchenette. Washing dishes in the bathroom was less than optimal. It desperately needs storage space for everyday items like cereal and bread and there are no closets at all. There is no dresser in the loft and there is plenty of room for one. Plan to live out of your suitcase and have dry goods scattered about the living room. Also, the huge oil truck out front could have been tucked away or parked at the marina, it is the first thing you see when you pull in and the first thing when you walk outside. Finally, a laundry area would be a huge improvement for an active family.
We thought of several different layouts that would have used this space much more effectively and we would put a second sink and some storage and counter surfaces as the number top priorities.
Owner was responsive.

Spotless loft in convenient location
The cottage is modern, tastefully designed, and immaculate. The view of the ocean is limited, but the breeze is wonderful. We enjoyed walking down to the marina to look at the boats in the beautiful harbor. The location is great for families, as most activities are a short drive away, plus downtown is an easy 5-10 min walk. We would happily stay here again.
