Great house in an ideal spot

Summer Salt Cottage is a comfortable house for a family of four. The location is ideal--an easy walk to downtown Bar Harbor and a super short drive to the best of Acadia. Laura is responsible and friendly. We would stay here again.

Lovely home and great in-town location

Enjoyed a stay here in December with our three kids. The location just steps away from a playground is awesome, and it is easy walking distance to everything in Bar Harbor. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals all week, and the house was very clean and comfy. Would definitely recommend to other travelers visiting MDI!

Summer Salt Cottage is a perfect place to stay when visiting Bar Harbor. It’s clean, comfortable and the location is ideal for walking into the village or going into Acadia National Park. It’s our second time here and we will be back.

Amazing Stay

My husband, son, and I vacation every summer in Bar Harbor because we have family in the area. This is by far the most comfortable home we have stayed. The home is nicely updated. The beds are comfortable. The home has everything you would need to cook. It is a close walk to town and my 5 y/o loved being two doors down from the playground. Laura has done an amazing job and we hope to stay again next year!

Don't wait...rent this house NOW! :-)

This house was so cozy, clean, AND in a great location. That is a triple winner! We have rented a lot of places over the years and I had never seen a property get all 10 stars with so many ratings. Everyone was right! Loved our time in Bar Harbor and hiking Acadia. Great communication with the home owner too. Wouldn't hesitate rebooking next time we are in the area!

Wonderful stay!

The home is even better than pictured in the listing. It is immaculately kept and cleanliness is far beyond many properties we have stayed in. Lovely touches throughout - very charming aesthetic - and is well equipped with everything you need. Also a super convenient walk to downtown - perfect to get out for a morning walk for local pastries and coffee. Laura was also incredibly accommodating and responsive. We would absolutely stay at her property again!
