We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin for our couple’s getaway! The space was comfortable, relaxing, and incredibly pet friendly, which made traveling with our dog so easy. The location was perfect! It was close enough to enjoy Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, while still feeling peaceful and tucked away. We’d definitely stay here again!
We loved our time here. Great location and excellent hosts. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely, quiet 1-bedroom loft small house near Acadia National Park. This was the perfect getaway for a couple - immaculately clean, comfortable and bear everything by car but just far away enough to be quiet and relaxing.
The cottage was perfect for a quiet Maine/Acadia get away. The host was great at communicating, the bed was comfortable and inviting, the location was perfect and the wifi was dependable! Couldnt have asked for more.
Loved this place! Super cozy and peaceful and nice. Close enough to all the places we went :) My fiance sprained his ankle a few days before our trip so the ladder to get to the loft bed wasn't ideal but that was no fault of the place- just something to note if you have any issues climbing! 10/10 would visit again.
This sweet space has all you need to rest and reset after exploring Acadia. Everything was incredibly clean, the beds were comfortable, and amenities were up to date. We were grateful for every attention to detail.
The Cozy Cottage was a great base for our Acadia NP vacation. Close enough to all of MDI. Many thanks to the hosts for sharing their cottage with us. Was just as described. Everything you need to have an adventure on the island. Great recommendations from the hosts as well. Would definitely stay again !
Super clean and comfortable loft. Hosts were super nice and created a great place to stay. Bathroom seemed brand new, mattresses were super comfortable, great place to stay!
This is a lovely place to stay away from the traffic of Bar Harbor. It's sooo clean and inviting and the hosts are amazing. My husband and I are 70 and 72 and the loft bedroom didn't bother us at all. But if you aren't fit and active, the loft ladder may be a problem for you. We would definitely stay there again.
This was the perfect little get away for our anniversary! Just enough space to hang out after exploring all day! Great communication with host and very friendly!
Perfect for what we needed. Great place out in the countryside to stay at if heading to Arcadia National Park. The property manager was very helpful and nice. Highly recommended!
This place was absolutely perfect for us!! The location was awesome - super remote, out in the woods, far enough away from everything that it was quiet but within 15 minutes we could be in a number of cute little towns. It was clean and the bed was comfy. Everything you could ask for! We went to several places the host recommended and they were all awesome.
The host was very accommodating and friendly. We made a last minute change to our itinerary and they didn't skip a beat to work with us to adjust our stay! The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Highly recommend booking at Misty Mountain Retreat!
This is the perfect little cottage for two. It was wonderfully located near a small grocery store, a short drive from Acadia National Park and the Bar Harbor area. It was private and just absolutely lovely. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a great place to stay near Acadia.
We used the cabin as a base for our visit to Acadia. It is very conveniently located so that visit to the north and south of the island is very easy. In less than 10 minutes you can get to a nice beach and watch the sunset. Local restaurants are also close by to grab local lunches and dinners.
