Spindle Cottage sept 14-21
This is such a special place with a large yard and wonderful view. We enjoyed the tidal changes and the wildlife. The house has everything you need and was clean. We enjoyed campfires each night. The windows across the front of the home upstairs and downstairs provided an excellent view of Union Bay. We will return if time permits

Family week away by the sea
We were visiting from England, and looking for peace, quiet and spectacular views and we certainly found them here. The house location is perfect - the immediate surroundings couldn't be more peaceful, but access is very easy for Acadia and the highway for longer trips, as well as easy shopping in Ellsworth. The grounds of the house are gorgeous, with direct access to the sea, and space to relax by the fire at night. The house itself is extremely comfortable and well-equipped with gorgeous views from all the main rooms. The only very minor negative is that one of the bedrooms is smaller and doesn't have a view (which caused some arguments between our daughters even though they are young adults now!)

The Perfect Maine Cottage
Spindle Cottage was everything we hoped it would be for our family vacation. The cottage is absolutely beautiful and what a view! This is clearly a cottage that is well loved and cared for. It feels like home the moment you step into it. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the tools you need to prepare a meal with. If you want to go out to eat, there are places nearby for that as well…and if you are looking for something in particular, just email Susan, as we did, and you are sure to get an immediate response with a great recommendation. Bar Harbor & Acadia National park were within an easy half hour drive. We literally had the park trails to ourselves, due to the timeframe of our visit. There is a notebook at the cottage filled with all the information you could possibly need for a fabulous vacation. Last but not least, the firepit in the evenings was the perfect ending after a full day of hiking Acadia. If we get a chance to return to Maine, Spindle Cottage is where we would stay!

Peaceful Seaside Cottage
The cottage sets on the sea and it is very quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting outside to watch the sunsets, tide and the birds. We had everything we needed to prepare meals, do laundry. It was very convenient to the grocery store and was only a 15 minute drive to Bar Harbor.

Glorious view, super nice house
We were excited to stay in this house, but it surpassed all expectations. The listing photos really don’t do it justice! The house is lovely inside — large, modern windows on three sides facing the bay, a beautiful yard with picnic table and fire pit, great kitchen stocked with basic provisions, three comfy bedrooms with pretty views, full baths up and down stairs. It was definitely one of the nicest homes we’ve rented, and the setting is spectacular. The house is clean, fresh and comfortable. We had family staying in Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor, so there was a lot of driving (30 minutes each way), but it was fun to host everyone for dinner at ‘our place’ and watch the beautiful sunsets. We especially appreciated all of the thoughtful touches, like fire starter bricks and a full s’mores pantry for our use. Our favorite part of each day was sitting in the swivel chairs next to the front windows enjoying a cup of coffee and watching the herons and cormorants patrolling the shore. So relaxing!

Fantastic view cottage
What a wonderful place to stay for the week and explore Acadia National Park! 20 minutes away depending on where in the park you are going. The view was picture perfect. Grandson had a blast searching out the tide pools right out in front of this cottage. The bird watching is fantastic eagles warblers gulls, osprey, blue herons all beautiful! seals and sea lions in the bay. Binoculars supplied!! Eat at Union River Bay Lobster House 10 minutes away. Get breakfast, coffee, treats at Sugar Bakery at Bar Harbor Rd and Oak Point! Pizza at Pat’s ! Beds have cushy pads on them. Couch is comfy with a view of the bay. Fire pit was lovely for night enjoyment and s’mores ! We bought our own wood- $5 a bundle. Nice washer dryer to use with soap supplied. Kitchen was well supplied for cooking with spices and basic cooking needs. Had lots of drying towels. Bathrooms were nicely appointed with a magnifying mirror in the upstairs bath. Lots of towels to use. Large pool towels supplied was nice. Spindle Cottage was all we could hope for and more!! Thank you for sharing your amazing place! An eagle waved good bye to us as we walked to the car to leave! Best goodbye we’ve had!
