Cottage holiday rentals in Bar Harbor

The most beautiful place, exceeding all expectations. The views are spectacular. We breathed in peace and tranquility. A fabulous place to celebrate my 80th birthday with the whole family -- 16 of us. Everyone was comfortable in the space. In addition to being the perfect host, Samantha provided surprise extras which was such fun! Just a few of the highlights: S'mores at the firepit, lobster dinners, seals, bald eagles and fireworks. She made our stay truly memorable. My family gives the place the highest recommendation.

Wonderful place right on the lake. Hugo was super responsive. We had a great time.

We had an awesome stay here!! The views are beautiful, the hot tub is awesome and the house was clean! It was also really fun to see the chickens and goats! Would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at the Great Pond Airbnb was incredible! The house was beautiful, cozy, and fully stocked with all the amenities we needed. We especially loved the paddle boat—it was magical to take it out on the lake early in the morning and watch the sunrise. Truly a dream! Finding the place initially was a bit tricky (we missed some details in the instructions), and cell service in the area is spotty, so definitely screenshot directions beforehand. Once settled, though, it was perfect. Being just over an hour from Acadia National Park was a huge bonus! We had a blast hiking, especially on Precipice Trail (challenging but amazing!) and Beehive Trail for a slightly easier, but still fun option. This spot offered the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a peaceful, nature-filled getaway!

The bungalow is cozy and comfortable. We throughly enjoyed the walk through the woods and sauna. Mayya goes above and beyond as a host! She is extremely kind and attentive. Highly recommend!

Adorable cottage, newly renovated. Perfect for two with an open space loft for one more. Kitchen is well stocked right down to the coffee. A good location if visiting Fort Knox, Mt. Barrie and not too far from Bar Harbor if that is on your list. Great stay, highly recommend. Beautiful view and private.

great stay for a relaxing weekend trip. perfect house for chilling but still drivable to Acadia. well stocked on the essentials, linens, and stunning views! host very responsive as well.

We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs across the country and I’m not exaggerating when I say that Lydia’s place was one of the cleanest and most well-maintained homes that we’ve been in. The property and scenery are breathtaking. The numbers of birds and chipmunks that entertained us while we sat on the back deck was surprising. We ate all of our meals with the exception of lunches at the cabin and had everything we needed to prep and cook our food. This trip was all about relaxing and Lydia’s home was everything we needed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!!!

Absolutely loved our stay here! If you're someone who enjoys being close to nature and traveling with your dog, this place is perfect. The surroundings are peaceful and green. Fabiola was super friendly and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The house rules were clear and straightforward, which made the whole experience stress-free. We felt really welcomed and comfortable the entire time. All in all, a great stay—we’d definitely come back!

Stayed at the twisted calico cottage for two nights, the property it’s on is beautiful!! It’s clear that Anna worked really hard on making the cottage adorable and accommodating! Wonderful host, beautiful view. I was very nervous bringing my elderly dog to travel for the first time since a major surgery, but Anna was kind and everything went well. I would recommend this to any couples who love quiet peaceful chill vacations, and older dogs that need minimal distractions from other dogs or people. Also was clean and stocked with basic necessities!

good value, a little creepy if you're showing up at night (haunted vibes) a little damp smelling, especially in the bathroom (since it's carpeted) but the view makes up for everything. beds and sheets were all clean and comfortable upon arrival.

Perfect spot for a quick family Acadia weekend. Nice spot, everything was clean and new, and Alicia was always responsive. Thanks!

I had a wonderful stay here! The inside is clean and cozy! Plus we enjoyed being able to cook over the fire and hang out by the lake. The location is private and peaceful. 35 minutes to the entrance of Acadia but depending on what part of the park you are headed to it can be up to an hour drive. I would stay again!

We had an amazing stay at Jason’s place despite a (mostly) rainy Memorial Day weekend! We still found plenty to do including inside the Airbnb, outside at the pond, and locally at all of the great restaurants/breweries/nature around. We also made it out to Acadia two of our days. I will say, the trip took longer than advertised (about an hour to get to the edge of the park), but was a pleasant enough ride. We also had our two dogs staying with us and we all felt right at home! Jason was a very responsive and helpful host as well - you can’t go wrong with this peaceful retreat on the pond!

Stephen's place is a gorgeous getaway for a fam. it's literally ON the ocean - with multiple jaw dropping views. Best part was the view from Dining room! clear and crisp communication and great stay. would recommend 10/10.

We had the most wonderful stay at this charming Airbnb in Bass Harbor! The location is absolutely perfect — right on the water, offering stunning views and a peaceful, quiet atmosphere. After a full day of exploring and sightseeing, it was such a joy to come back to this cozy and homey spot to unwind and relax. The home itself has such a warm, inviting feel. It’s thoughtfully decorated, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. It’s also in a prime spot — just a short drive to the iconic Bass Harbor Head Light and several beautiful coastal hiking trails. Plus, just a short drive to Acadia National Park, making it easy to explore the best of the area. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with close access to both nature and some of the region’s most popular attractions. Can't wait to return!

The location is amazing — just down the road from Acadia, on the Schoodic Peninsula, which in my opinion is even more pristine and beautiful than the main part of the park. The cabin itself is incredible — warm, spotless, charming, and very well-stocked. Beautiful views of the water, super relaxing vibes. I especially loved the sunroom and the deck — perfect for unwinding! The host was super friendly, helpful, and incredibly responsive — made everything so easy and welcoming. We hope to be back soon!

Wow! I mean, my wife and I didn't want to leave. We met Robin at check-in and she was just a delight! We talked to her and her husband Bob a few other times and they're such fantastic people. They gave us some amazing recommendations for hikes and restaurants and we left wanting more (which says a lot!). We usually leave AirBnBs wanting to go home but this place and the people who own it are special and an absolute treat! The Little Cabin was outstanding and provided everything we needed. The GORGEOUS bay view took a good chunk of our time. The Northern Lights were very strong our last night and we were fortunate enough to see a Seal and Porpoise! Next time we come this way, we won't hesitate to apply to stay here again. Seriously a great stay! Thank you for offering these cabins to stay in!

Cozy little cabin right by the road that goes to Acadia national park, which makes it very convenient for people planning to visit Acadia and Bar Harbor. It had everything we needed: comfy bed, coffee maker, little fridge, functional bathroom, television. Communication with Maria was great, as she was always friendly and responded quickly to questions.

Absolutely loved my stay here! If you’re looking for somewhere very rural, quiet and secluded, this is a perfect place. It’s fit for one or two people, it was so incredibly cute and whimsical, definitely the best place I’ve ever stayed!

Perfect location with easy access to bar harbor and Acadia about 10 min away. Cute little cottage with everything you could need! Hosts very sweet and answer super quick if you need anything. (Make sure to take some firewood and cook dinner on Hadley Point Beach!)

We absolutely LOVED our stay! It was perfect for our family of 5. The cabin is spotless and the location to Bar Harbor and Acadia is perfect! My girls loved the ping pong table and walking to the market across the street for breakfast! It had great muffins and breakfast sandwiches (also a take out menu for other meals). The screened in porch was also fantastic. The beds were very comfortable. The price was affordable considering the wonderful location. I highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully maintained cottage. It was impressively well-stocked—even the smallest details were thoughtfully considered, making us feel right at home. The outdoor area was equally lovely, with excellent landscaping and a fantastic fire pit that quickly became a favorite gathering spot. The views were stunning, and we especially enjoyed watching the local wildlife wander through the grassy fields. Everything about the home reflected above-average standards, from its cleanliness to its cozy yet refined design. A truly special place—we hope to return!
