Our seasonal cottage is situated in a lovely, wooded area near the quiet Schoodic section of Acadia National Park, in the beautiful State of Maine.

So Far, So good!

After all this time to get this project going, we have had our first guest and we're happy to report she gave us our first 5 Star Review!

"If I tell you how great this place is, there's a chance there won't be availability for me next time. But okay, here goes... this home is super clean, updated, comfortable, has a screened-in porch, and is conveniently located. It's 5 min to the park entrance, where you can check out Raven's Nest, Schoodic Point, and trails near Blueberry Hill parking lot. Corea Heath is another easy loop walk to try if you're looking for something less strenuous. The house is also near The Pickled Wrinkle to get a bite to eat. Be sure to say hi to my friends Jane & Kelly at the Littlefield Gallery, and take a tour at U.S. Bells. All in all, a perfect place to stay during your visit!"

We were tickled pink to say the least and hope we'll be able to accommodate many more happy guests!

In the meantime, one of my jobs as "Property Manager" involves one of my favorite things to do and that's gardening!  Bob came up with a great idea to build a long planter for the front of the house, I planted lots of red, pink and white impatiens, mulched it and it looks so colorful and cute. I'll post a picture for my next blog post when things have begun bloom nicely.

I also began a rock garden for the right side of the property's entry way and as I was digging around, I found more boulders under some of the soil.  So, I hosed them all down and we now have a true rock garden with lots of sedums and other perennials from my yard.  It will probably take a few years to fill in, but I think it turned out nicely.


Anyway, although there are many hiking and biking paths here on the "quiet side" of Acadia National Park, I thought I'd post information about some of the the nice hiking path's in the main part of the Park over in Bar Harbor.

In the meantime, if you're interested in perhaps staying with us and you'd like more information about Acadia Woodland Cottage, check out our VRBO site, number 1713662.  While at this time, we only have two weeks in September and one in October still available, we'll be open for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays and there's always next year to come visit Maine!

Wishing everyone a very happy and fun summer! 😎

Cheers, 

Bob and Sandy
