Correspondence was great. Stay was great. Internet didn't work for most of our stay, so that was a let-down for my sons, but they made do. Visit Winter Harbor and Acadia if you stay! Amenities were great. Best towels, ever! I enjoyed to down time in peace and quiet. Wonderful stay. I'd go again. I'd give them an A. :)

Great Spot - Beautiful scenery

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was perfect for our needs, check in and check out were effortless! Loved the added touch of some essentials - shampoo and conditioner, a fresh sponge and dish soap! I could look at that view all day - simply gorgeous spot!

Perfect house and location for family

We stayed in this adorable and immaculately kept house that was right on the water. Coffee, sunrise, and fishing boats started our mornings. On our first day, we drove to Winter Harbor and took the ferry to Bar Harbor for the day. On our second day, we drove an hour to Acadia to see Cadillac Mtn and other sights. It was a perfect out-of-the-way Maine stay for all of us.

Great Location and Easy to Find

We had a great time in Maine, and while we did not spend much time in the rental (mostly just sleeping) what we did was great. My favorite thing about the rental is how easy it was to find. It is well located on the main road for the area, and the color scheme stands out so it is almost impossible to miss. This made coordinating with other folks super easy.

An Excellent Week+ At Lobster Cottage

Beautiful little cottage was the perfect size for the 5 of us. Appreciated the new appliances and mini-split air conditioning units. Water pressure was amazing! And that cozy front porch to watch the lobster boats come and go, well it couldn't be beat. Just a note: maybe make future guests aware that the beds are VERY soft, just so they know. And maybe add a picture of the stairway? Thanks again for a great stay!

Quiet cottage near the water with an excellent view

Really enjoyed our stay at lobster house. It is about an hour's drive from Bar harbor, but it was really quiet and very close to the water. You get beautiful views of the night sky and sunrises. The host had set up cute little packages of bath products, laundry and dishwasher products. There are TVs in every room. We enjoyed our stay here. It can be a bit of a drive to bar harbor, but there are other beautiful views points near lobster cottage like Schoodic Point and Ravens nest.

Vacation

Easy to find, cute, loved the view. It was a little deceiving… looks like it’s right on the water but actually it’s across the street. It said 8 miles from Acadia National Park but we actually had to drive 1 hour to get there. Towels were stained and banaster was broken. We enjoyed our stay and would have liked to have had more time there.

The view was my favorite part! I would love to stay in the summer when I can sit on either porch or the upper deck and watch the sunrise/set and how the colors on the bay change throughout the day. It is a beautifully maintained home—nicely appointed and decorated. The king mattress is very comfortable! Plenty of pillows, blankets, and towels. The water pressure is amazing. Lots of TVs for those who need one. The wifi was great. It's an excellent spot for a family or girls’ getaway. Great communication. We would return for sure!

Love Lobster Cottage!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying in this part of maine! The house was great, only downside is that the stairs are VERY steep and the upstairs banister felt short. We worked it out but with the kids going up and down a lot, and my 74 year old mother as well, I just a little nervous about it. Everything else was great and I would rent again!

We enjoyed our stay at the Lobster Cottage. The rental was very close to the hiking trails in Acadia Park and close to restaurants and shopping. We spent all of the days hiking so it was nice to have a clean and quiet place to rest and relax at the end of the day. The view of the harbor was beautiful too.

Beautiful, quiet location and quaint & comfy cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I owned and managed vacation rentals for 20 years and I am very impressed with Coastal Maine Vacations! Great communication, fast responses to questions and the property was super clean, and the location was perfect for us. AWay from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor, but just a short drive from the Schoodic Peninsula which is also part of the Acadia National Park. Restaurants in Winter Harbor were fantastic. We couldn't ask for a more perfect vacation! Everything you could need for your vacation - the kitchen was well stocked, washer /dryer and we especially appreciated the cute boxes of bath products! Many thanks for making this feel so inviting and special

Would have stayed longer!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cottage is quintessential Maine, just what we were looking for. The property was clean and well-maintained. The management was very quick to respond when we were unable to figure out the internet and all was resolved quickly. If we would have had more time we would have stayed longer just to enjoy the cottage and its location. We traveled to Acadia all three days of our stay, a couple of our group took the ferry from Winter Harbor to Bar Harbor which they really enjoyed. If you're looking for a quiet cottage with a water view away from the populated areas around Bar Harbor then I highly recommend Lobster Cottage.
