Early June Vacation
The cottage was wonderful, comfortably, and quiet. Very clean and the owners were very helpful. The process was super easy and we will definitely be staying here again. Had everything we needed.

Hidden Gem
The cabin was appointed extremely well, furnished comfortably, located conveniently to all interesting sites of the Acadia area. Owners provided all the necessary and thoughtful details- Wi-Fi password, coffee, smart tv, toiletries, kitchen supplies, outside seating. Excellent VRBO rental.

This was a beautiful place to stay! Very clean and well maintained. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the supplies you need. The only improvement I can think of would be a new matress.

Great Getaway
Property was well maintained, private, quiet, and in beautiful location surrounded by woods! Owner was very responsive to text messages in answering questions. Cottage was very homey with gas logs and everything needed was provided. We would definitely recommend this property! If we return to Maine in the future, we would rent it again.

A hidden jewel
The place is amazing. This tops anything I've stayed at in the past in the area. The host pointed out excellent places to eat and visit. Inside this hidden jewel is a spacious one bedroom house is a large queen bedroom and bathroom. Comfy living room with a fireplace. Fully furnished and stocked kitchen. The Wifi is fast and never went down. I just wished I had booked a longer stay. Will return for the fall foliage.

Truly a hidden gem!
I stayed alone on vacation 6 nights at this quiet, relaxing hidden gem near Blue Hill, Maine. Well furnished and decorated. All the amenities for comfort. Good location. Near scenic waterways including the ocean, with quaint shops and good restaurants. Not too far from Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island. The landlord was friendly, helpful and accessible. He made good recommendations for day trips including places to see, hike, shop and eat. I have stayed in Maine several times and this was by far the most enjoyable and the best location for comfort, quiet and location. I hope to return to the Hidden Gem for future trips!

truly a hidden gem!
we absolutely loved this place! The gift basket and available toiletries were a great added touch! we ended up needing the umbrella that was there so having that available was good! everything was so clean and exactly as pictured in the listing! Could've used one more fan since there was no AC but we were mostly comfortable. Would've rathered to not have neighbors attached but we just kept the blinds closed and had no issues. overall fantastic place to stay and have already forwarded the listing to others :)

Hidden Gem Cottage is a gem!
We enjoyed our stay and we were very comfortable in the cottage. It is attached to a residence, so it’s not a “stand alone” property. However, we never had any issues with it. We spent the week in Acadia National Park and the Bar Harbor area, which was about 1 hr 15 min away. It’s a pretty drive thru some quaint villages, tho! The cottage was very clean and well-equipped with pretty much everything we needed. Bed was comfortable and bathroom spacious. Kitchen has all the basics, however the refrigerator/freezer is small, so be aware if you plan on needing space for a lot of food. Overall a great experience! Loved all the critters we had visit- red squirrels, chipmunks, and a pair of pileated woodpeckers!

A beautiful, well-maintained and lavishly provisioned property. A bit out of the way, but within easy reach of Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. We enjoyed our stay!

The Hidden Gem was a great place to come back to after long days at the Acadia Park and Bar Harbor. Very clean and well supplied to be a second home away from home. Definitely would stay again. Guest was very helpful and made sure everything was ready for us.

Beautiful Stay - perfect for our Acadia trip
Spacious 1 bedroom cottage. Beautifully appointed and well sorted with everything you would need for your stay. The small kitchen was great for preparing a few small meals after a day of exploring Acadia. There is a grocery store down the road about 15minutes that had anything we may have needed or forgotten. Not much for restaurants in the area so we cooked in 2 nights. Minor comments: The cottage is attached to another residence. This caused us no issues and we never heard or really saw the other residents. Also there is not a full size refrigerator or freezer. They are a small drawer style undercabinet arrangment. They worked fine but beware of a limited capacity. 100% would stay again and will recommend to family and friends.

Great Place
Nice place in a quiet neighborhood. Alot of cool places to check out within a short drive. The owner was very helpful and a heck of a nice guy in general. When I booked this, I did not realize that if was attached to the main house. Not that it mattered. Would defiantly recommend and look forward to staying there again.

Awesome Stay
This is a place that is quiet and has an amazing amount of thought put into the rental space. It has everything you need and probably a couple of things you forgot! A cozy fireplace to come home to at night and a beautiful yard to sit and unwind in. It was for us, the perfect vacation.

Lovely stay
We enjoyed our trip so much! The home was beautifully appointed with everything we needed for the trip. There is a Keurig for your caffeine needs. Blue Hill is a very cute little town. We grabbed groceries at the Hannaford and Walgreens. Blaze is an amazing restaurant! Harriman Preserve is a must see, about a mile hike to a quiet little beach that we had all to ourselves. So pretty and perfectly Maine!

It’s really a gem!
We stayed at this gorgeous cottage for two. Nights while we hiked around Acadia. The place was spotless, and every detail was attended to. They even left us a thank you note and some bottled water and snacks! Well worth staying here even though it is an hours drive to Acadia. Would definitely stay again!

We enjoyed the cozy cabin. It was clean, well appointed & quiet. It’s an easy 45-60 minute drive to Acadia. We enjoyed local restaurants, Island Take Out & Marlintinis.
