About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Quiet location. Home is 1/2 a mile to Seawall Beach and 3 miles to town center.

Stepping Stone is the perfect location for your vacation. It is on a quiet, private road , close to everything Southwest Harbor has to offer. Take the 1/2 mile walk or drive to Seawall Beach or the local lobster pounds, hop in the car and continue on to the hiking trails and Bass Harbor lighthouse, or take the 5 minute drive to the town center for dinner and shopping.
The home itself is spacious and sunny and consists of a master en suite with a queen bed and full bath with walk in shower, a second bedroom with two queens, and a hall bath with a tub/shower combination. There is a full two car attached garage to store your bikes and kayaks. You will also find coolers, beach chairs and lawn games for your enjoyment.
Sit on the deck and relax to the sounds of the waves crashing on Seawall beach, or enjoy an evening fire and unwind from the day's adventures.

Lovely home on MDI
Our first trip to the Acadia National Park area in Maine was even better due to the incredible home we booked. The location was perfect, the house had everything we needed for our week. The house is tucked in to a wonderful wooded neighborhood, close to Seawall beach and the magic of nature. After long days of hiking it was so nice to come back our home and relax outside at the fire pit and watch the deer, red squirrels, and incredible numbers of birds come and go. We definitely will stay here again! Thanks Amy, your home exceeded our expectations.

Cutest place ever!
The interior design was absolutely adorable. The outside space was well used and well loved by us! Lots of deer also lots of neighborhood cats lol Amy was amazing to work with. There were three or four discrepancies between the vrbo listing and the binder but nothing at all that was an unreasonable request. Very very simple check out instructions. absolutely loved it. Only mentioning it so you are not surprised! Highly recommend!

This house has everything we needed and then some. The home is super clean, the furniture is very comfortable and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. It has plenty of nice dishes and pots and pans, a dishwasher, a washer & dryer, tv’s in every bedroom as well as the living room, a garage, nice outdoor furniture and a fire pit. We felt at home here and would definitely stay again.

We'll Maintained and Great Location
Everything was well maintained and super clean. We loved the location in Southwest Harbor as it was away from the hustle of Bar Harbor, very quiet, and allowed us to explore the western side of Acadia but still close enough to the main part of the park. Super easy checkin and checkout and perfect place to rest and relax at the end of a day or exploration.

Beautiful, clean and quiet
We loved our stay at Amy’s. The home was beautifully decorated and comfortable for the four of us. The location was convenient for our hiking in and around Acadia. It was raining our whole time there, otherwise we would have enjoyed the fire pit outside by the water feature. Quiet and secluded area. We would love to stay here again if we return to the area.

Great stay
We had a great time on Acadia thanks to Amy. The place was spotless and perfect. It's off the beaten path, quiet and peaceful. We had deer in the yard every day, enjoyed the fire pit and outdoor grill. There is a restaurant next door that we did not try but has great reviews as well as a bakery that's a bit hard to find but looked really good too. Amy made check-in and check-out seamless and very easy. Will come back.
