Chalet confortable dans les bois de la Ville de SW Harbor-

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was comfortable and clean. The location is excellent if you want to stay in Southwest Harbor. We particularly enjoyed walking to the semi-private causeway where the kids could play by the water. Great value for the money.

My wife and I vacationed in Southwest Harbor and found this cozy cottage since it had close vicinity to water (via the Causeway), the town of Southwest Harbor, and Acadia National Park. All of our interest points were under 30 minutes away from here and we couldn't have been happier. For the two of us, the size of the place was perfect, thought we're not sure how a family larger than 3 would have been able to make it, especially since the bathroom was tiny.

My only complaints was that there was no flat pan in the kitchen, only a bunch of pots, which made making breakfast in the morning interesting; and also that this place had a weak spot for bugs. When we arrived, there were a bunch in there, which i'm guessing was due to some of the window screens having holes in them. Upon closing those windows it become more manageable, but we did find that they got in other ways throughout the week. There was also no sofa in the living room, just a bunch of chairs.

Other than those three things, the pros outweighed the cons. So the large windows in the living room/kitchen, everything was provided (besides a frying pan), great location, and the size was just right for the two of us. This place helped us to fall in love with Maine as it was our first visit!

The Knollette in Southwest Harbor is by far one of the coziest and most charming places we have stayed in the area. The whole place was just wonderful. It was well stocked with anything you would need & things you didn't realize you would need. (It even had extension cords!) It was very clean and inviting. All of the windows made you feel like you were outside watching the deer in the yard, but at the same time was very private. The house was just the right size for our family of four which includes 17 & 12 year old boys. It was so relaxing to be able to spread out at the end of the day and then walk down to the Causeway at the end of the road. It was a different sight every night and one of the most enjoyable parts of our stay. Lots of trails nearby to go hiking and downtown & Beal's Lobster Pier is only a short walk away. I have to give a shoutout to Gott's Grocery Store just a few miles away for their awesome baked goods. We were there a total of four times for whoopie pies & cake. We will definitely be back to the area and hope to be able to stay at Ken's place again.

The cottage was quaint, cozy, and had many supplies. It was nice to stay on the “quiet side” of the island. We spent most of the trip hiking, and found this cottage to be a convenient location. Upon return to Mount Desert Island, we’d stay at Ken’s place again in a heartbeat!

The cottage is very clean and cute. Ken has it stocked with nearly everything you might need. He also responds very promptly to emails if you need anything. There’s a lot to do within a short drive (or even walk!).
