“Brookshire Cottage” Acadia National Park “Pet Friendly” Mt Desert Island ME

Brookshire Cottage is a luxury 100 year old totally renovated Bungalow home located on Mount Desert Island in Bass Harbor. Near wonderful trails 5 mins away on the ocean. Ships Harbor Trail and Wonderland Trail. Road in front of our home circles the Island around Seawall. Very Scenic drive along the water.

The property is a 3 bedroom home with Luxury Master Suite with Master Bath, claw foot tub, and seamless glass shower. Perfect for relaxing after hiking the trails of the park or kayaking in the ocean or lakes. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking for a large group! Farmhouse sink and table inside and outside for family meals! Fire pit, gas grill, and lobster cooker available! The property is dog friendly for dogs 50 lbs and under with a pet fee $125.00. Smart TV in all the bedrooms and living room. The house has air conditioning also for keeping cool in the Summer. Please note that the Air Conditioner is only on the first floor. Windows and large fans upstairs. Rarely does the temperature at night become to
hot. If you rent in the Fall we have a gas stove for keeping warm. The property is up the street from Bass Harbor Lighthouse. Ferry Terminal and hiking trails only 5 mins away! Located on the quiet side of the Island but only a short drive to Bar Harbor. Many great restaurants and stores on our side of island too. Decorated with a classic theme. The house was totally rebuilt and redecorated 3 years ago. We provide comfortable sheets and linens. This is very important to our family. There are two separate rooms with queen beds and another bunk room that has three single beds. Trundle bed in living room.

There is another guest house in the back that is rented separate from the main house.

**Please note If you are bringing a dog please add it to the reservation so it will charge the $125 pet fee** otherwise we must do this manually. We strive hard to be pet friendly.

Keep in mind we are not handicapped accessible. The house has stairs.

Brookshire Cottage in Bass Harbor
Great location in Tremont Maine.The cottage was clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped. A perfect spot for exploring Acadia, Northeast Harbor and Bar Harbor. Would highly recommend a windjammer cruise on the Margaret Todd in Bar Harbor and dinner at the Little Fern restaurant in the Claremont Hotel. We absolutely loved our three day stay!

Nice house but too many rules and many trip hazards.

We couldnt ask for a better location! We spent our days at Acadia National Park but the area was great. Everything was great at the house and even some extras to help eat at home. We appreciate the extra attention taken for the small things and the well labeled info for items to use.
