Perfect, quiet cottage

We had a great stay at Tammy’s cottage and would happily return. We prefer staying in the Southwest/Bass harbor area when visiting Acadia to escape the crowds while still having great food only 5 minutes away like Archie’s Lobster. Our dog also had a great time and the cottage had all the basic cooking & grilling essentials so we cooked for most meals. Thank you Tammy so much for having us and being a great host.

Great cottage!

We had a lot of fun in this cottage. It is nice, spacious and has everything you need. The only downside is the park is about 30 min away, but not a big deal as the area is lovely. Highly recommended!

Fabulous

The photos don't give this property justice. We have rented a lot of homes over the decades and this one was the cleanest and had the most thought pit onto the decor and functionality. Like the motion detector night light in the bathroom! We really felt welcomed. The owner understands hospitality. We would definitely stay here again due to the location setting and house itself. Very quiet and no road noise.

Wonderful!

We had a great stay at bobcat cottage. The cottage was perfect for our family of 5. We enjoyed the quiet location that was still only a short drive to many of Acadia National Park’s most visited sights. Cottage was clean and welcoming. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook our dinners at home. Would absolutely stay again on another visit to Acadia!

The perfect way to celebrate our wedding elopement weekend

This rental was above and beyond what we were hoping for. When we say this cabin was the perfect rental on the “quiet side”, we mean it! There was not a sound or person in your surroundings, all you could see or hear was the wind blowing through the trees. Out of all the places we have stayed in Acadia (cabins, campsites), this was by far the most quiet. The host was very attentive to our special occasion and left a detailed note, celebratory wine and swan towel decorations on the bed. The host also reached out a few times to make sure we were comfortable and the heat was working well enough given the drop in temps. We are blown away by this rental and recommend it so so so much! We will definitely be back for wedding anniversaries to come. Not enough good things to say!!!!

Not what we expected

The Good: Cabin comes with bug spray which is heavily needed for the mosquitos waiting right outside 24/7. Wi-Fi is solid and the area provides quiet settings. Plush towels and great washer and dryer set up. Well stocked cabin. The Bad: when you enter the cabin you will smell mothballs. The listing says Queen size but it’s a Full and very uncomfortable, huge dissatisfaction for the price paid per night. Location is 20-30 minutes drive into town so plan your days out to stay out all day. The couch/chair in the living area also could be updated for more comfy seating. There is no A/C but we found a small fan upstairs that helped a little at night. The water heater is in a timer so no hot water for showers mid day. We had to use towels to provide privacy for some of the windows as they did not have blinds. The grill was in need of cleaning upon arrival so we needed up not using it. The exit process was unusual we had to strip the beds and take out all the trash, I thought that’s what the cleaning fee was for? Overall: We made the best of it and the property manager was made aware of the bed upgrade needed, I’m sure they will update that. I have to give this Visit a 7/10. Will not revisit this cabin but will revisit Bar Harbor!

Great place to stay!

Very beautiful cabin! Cozy and quiet. It was nice to get away. The cabin is only 20-30 min away from all the popular sites to see like Bar Harbor or Sand Beach, but also so close to a lot of hiking trails like Acadia Mountain which my 8 yr old and 5 yr old hiked!!! Also next to Echo lake beach!! Cabin is really great for a family.

Perfect cabin for exploring Acadia

This adorable, well maintained and outfitted cabin was even better than I had hoped for. It is at the end of a lovely private road and within minutes of Southwest Harbor and Bass Harbor. It was the perfect home base for exploring everything that Acadia NP offers. Even saw deer in the woods near our cabin. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else when I return. If you want the hubbub of Bar Harbor, it is an easy 30 minute drive. Prefer to stay near Southwest Harbor and get outstanding lobster dinners from Thurstons Lobster Pound only 5 minutes away. But if you’d prefer to cook, the cabin has a very well stocked kitchen with every supply you would need, an electric stove and oven, as well as a gas BBQ and a lovely fire pit with a nice seating area, and only a few minutes from a gas station and grocery store. The owners have even thought of baby gates and a charging station for our electronics. Cell service is very good and WIFI works well. Upstairs loft beds are great for children or small adults. Great romantic get away and the cabin is PET FRIENDLY. We came to hike Acadia with our dogs, and the BOBCAT CABIN was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location

We had a wonderful experience staying in this cottage. It was very clean and well-stocked. It was in a beautiful location on Mount Desert Island - quieter than on the east side of the island, and there are better restaurants on the west side! We made the easy drive to different Acadia regions and Bar Harbor numerous times during our stay. The property owner was very responsive. I highly recommend this property.
