Perfect location

We absolutely loved our stay here. It was quiet, well- appointed and you can’t beat the location. We loved having the balance of feeling that you’re tucked away in the woods but able to walk anywhere to town was a pleasure. Highly recommend Southwest Harbor!

A perfect getaway

A lovely property with a beautiful rustic cottage. The attached deck is perfect to sit, relax, and enjoy the falling leaves. You are only a few miles from Acadia National Park and walking distance from the harbor. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Incredible little cabin in the woods near Southwest Harbor

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Woodland Cottage 3 in Southwest Harbor Maine. It was clean, delightfully appointed, and in a gorgeous wooded setting very near downtown. Great central location for exploring Desert Island and Acadia.

Beautiful cabin!

We spent 5 nights at this cabin that was fully stocked with everything our family needed to explore Acadia. Loved staying on the quiet side of MDI, easy access to Bar Harbor and the western side. Host was very responsive to questions and we’d definitely stay here again!

Beautiful South West Harbor cabin

The cabin was great big enough and well equipped for what we needed. It’s walking distance to the southwest harbor shops, but tucked back into the woods away from it all

Fantastic place to spend a week

This property exceeded my expectations. Of all the places I have rented up on Mount Desert Island, this was by far my favorite. The location is great, the cottage is amazing and spacious, and the amenities are second to none. I really enjoyed my stay.

About the host

Hosted by Vicki Beal

Host profile image
Doug Beal, Jr. a 5th generation, lived in Southwest Harbor his whole life. He and his wife, Vicki, owned a Marine Conctruction and Diving Business for 41 years. They decided to start a retirement business, so, they began building seasonal rental cottages. Doug completed 3 of them before he passed away in the summer 2015 ( Homeaway #3498723 and #3498716 ). Vicki is carrying on the business that she and Doug started, together.
The three cottages can house 19 happy vacationers, (for a group looking to vacation, together), or rent one for a family. Woodland Cottages I, II and III, all have great holiday appeal ~
