About this house rental
Ideally situated in the center of Mount Desert Island, Echo Pines Cottage is the perfect "home away from home" for vacation activities. It's only minutes from popular "quiet side" trails, including stunning Acadia and Beech Mountains. The entrance to Acadia's pristine, swimmable Echo Lake is only 3 miles away. You'll enjoy a view of the northern section of Echo Lake from the cottage's front windows.
The house sits on 1.5 wooded acres, on a private road. The home is surrounded by tall pines and birch trees. Watch for deer that regularly pass through the yard, and listen for the call of the loons from the lake.
Enjoy eating around the wood- topped kitchen island, or sit by the bay windows looking toward the water.
The cottage is private, but close to all the activities the island has to offer. "Downtown" Bar Harbor is about 15 minutes away, and quaint Southwest Harbor is less than 10.
The house has been outfitted for your comfort, including premium mattresses and many kitchen conveniences and amenities. You'll love the whimsical, "Maine" character of the place. And we take pride in having a spotless cottage!
There are two bedrooms, both with queen-size beds, plus a queen-size pull-out couch with memory foam mattress in the living area and a full size futon couch / bed in the back reading room. The reading room can be closed off for privacy. There are two full bathrooms, both with showers and tubs, one upstairs and one down.
The kitchen is fully appointed, ready for family meals and gatherings! You'll find many basic kitchen staples, like standard spices, cooking oil, and storage wraps provided for you. We also stock condiments in the fridge.
In the basement there's a washer and dryer for your use. Laundry detergent is provided. There's also a ping pong table, ready for those family tournaments.
We, the owners, are local, living on the west side of Bar Harbor, so we're intimately familiar with the area and are ready if you have any issues or questions.
We make every effort to go above and beyond for visitors to MDI. We love the island and truly enjoy sharing it with those who come to experience this fabulous national park. Our goal is that you leave loving Acadia National Park and MDI as much as we do.

We could hear the loons on Echo Lake! So this was a plus! We loved sitting on the back patio to look at the lake! This was a great place from which we could explore all of Mount Desert Island. We don't like crowds so much, so did not go into Bar Harbor too much, but loved the proximity to Southwest Harbor and is on offer there. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped, the house was clean. Having a washer and dryer on premises was a plus. We were not wanting at all. The little IGA store just a few minutes away was sufficient for all our grocery needs. Our hosts were friendly and helpful. We loved Common Good in Southwest Harbor that has live music (including a 25 piece ukulele band on Sundays) and free popovers! Pets are welcome!

Echo Pines Cottage was the perfect location for our party, and the accommodations were excellent. We were all very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed the property.

Great cottage to relax in. The kitchen is well appointed with gear and basics. The Weber grill worked well. Everything about the house feels welcoming as a guest! Highly recommend swinging by Echo Lake Beach after every hike which is a short drive from the house.
