Mt. Desert Island’s second largest village, Southwest Harbor, features a charming Main Street with an appealing assortment of shops and restaurants. The neighboring village of Manset, which is along the southern shore of the harbor, tends to be rural in nature but features a number of excellent restaurants and boatyards, including Hinckley Yacht Yard and Morris Yachts, both of which boast an international reputation. If Bar Harbor is the ‘gateway’ to Acadia, Southwest Harbor is the gateway to Acadia’s westside trails and attractions, including Seawall, Ship’s Harbor, and Echo Lake, all between five and eight minutes from the village center.
If you want a peaceful, tranquil and well – maintained house with the very best views. This is the place. There is so much to do in and around Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor and we couldn’t wait to come back to the house to sit and look at the view. Southwest Harbor small shopping district had two of the best restaurants that we have been to in a long time. Cafe 2 is a must in town. Just a wonderful little house in the perfect small town. Highly recommend!
Love this cottage! It’s in a beautiful, quiet, serene place. Exactly as it was portrayed. We hope to return one day.
