Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The location of this property, the view, the cleanliness and the communication process were perfect - absolutely no complaints! The beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed including beach towels, tupperware for packing a picnic, plenty of towels and a nice selection of dishes, kitchenware, cups, etc. All of my messages, questions were returned promptly and the check-in and check-out process with smooth.The location was perfect-it was quieter than staying in Bar Harbor, but still close and convenient to everything.We also enjoyed walking down to the dock that was close to the home and enjoying the view!I can't say enough good things, we were sad to leave, highly recommend! Photo is the sunrise from the house!
Outstanding experience at Stone Bluff and with Paul
We stayed at Stone Bluff cottage. Paul was a fantastic host from before we arrived through the end of the trip. He patiently answered lots questions about the place, as well as provided several suggestions for site seeing. When tiny housekeeping things came up, Paul responded right away! When I forgot a lock for our bikes, Paul loaned us one of his to save us the drive off the Island. The place was nice and meticulously clean. WiFi worked great. Itâs noteworthy this place had all the little things, like zip lock bags, paper towels, real tissues (!!), a tide-to-go instant stain remover I didnât know I needed until I actually did, a full length mirror, and skirt hangers. There is lots of storage so you can really unpack and settle in! Thereâs a beautiful view of the water right from the house, and itâs a 2 minute walk down the hill to sit at the dock on the water. The drive to Acadia was beautiful and reasonable -/ we mostly hiked and rode bikes there. Overall, the place was great!
The place was as beautiful as it is in the pictures! We loved waking up to the sunrise outside our window every morning and the location of the property could not have been better! We were so close to all the hikes we wanted to do and Bar Harbor. This place was secluded and exactly what we needed for our vacation. The owner also did such a great job at communicating to make everything so easy for us. Thank you for everything!
5/5 Stars â Perfect Cottage Retreat in the Heart of Mount Desert Island
This centrally located cottage was the perfect base for exploring all that Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park have to offer. Nestled in a peaceful spot with beautiful views of the water and surrounding mountains, it was a joy to wake up each morning with a cup of coffee on the porch and take it all in.The location made it incredibly easy to access all corners of the islandâwhether we were hiking in Acadia, strolling through Bar Harbor, or finding hidden gems along the coast. In the evenings, the cottage was warm and cozy, a great place to relax, recharge, and reflect on the dayâs adventures.We couldnât have asked for a better combination of comfort, scenery, and location. Highly recommend for anyone looking to truly experience the beauty and tranquility of Mount Desert Island.
Our family stayed in the Stone Bluff Cottage for a week and it was a fantastic home base for our visit to Acadia National Park.Paul and Ashlee are outstanding hosts and have thought of everything. They were very quick to respond to our questions, and are very knowledgeable about the area.The cottage is wonderfully furnished with gorgeous views of Somes Sound. We especially appreciated the full kitchen, the grills on the deck, and the in-unit washer and dryer. It was the perfect home away from home for our family.
