Positief: Netheid
Location was fantastic for seeing wildlife (osprey, eagle, loons, deer) as well as ease of getting around the island. Just what we were looking for! Better lighting to play games in the evening would've been nice, and the kitchen could use better knives and skillets, but the beds were comfortable, and the pluses far outweighed the minuses. Would gladly come again!!

The cottage looked small from outside but very roomy inside. We enjoyed watching ospreys hunting fish, quiet sounds of streams running right next to the property, and the convenience of being on the island to visit many attractions of the NP. We could make lobster dinner with their huge pots. More than plenty towels were supplied.

Perfection

Absolutely loved being on Somes Pond in this home. Everything was wonderful - clean, spacious, linens and kitchen fully stocked. This is a peaceful location yet close to everything you want to do in Acadia and Bar Harbor. We definitely will be returning. Large home with plenty of space and spectacular view. There is nothing I would change. It was perfection.

Quiet Getaway in Great Location

Our second time at this property! It is centrally located to so much of Acadia. Close to shopping and restaurants in Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor, so many hiking options, right on Somes pond - it's perfect. The house was great for our family of 4.

We had a wonderful stay! Lots of room in the living and dining room area for us to gather as a family but plenty of bedrooms to spread out for some peace and quiet. Gorgeous view of the pond and lovely babbling brook running through the property!

Quiet Getaway in Acadia

We were looking for a convenient place to stay while touring Acadia and this cottage was everything we had hoped for. Only a few miles from hiking and biking trails as well as places for kayaking. Restaurants were also within 10-15 minutes in several directions. Would highly recommend it and would stay here again!

Great location on the pond

Beautiful location on somes pond. We arrived to a hot house and the manager came out with fans and a small window air conditioner was set up. The AC unit was amazing which kept the house comfortable the entire week stay running at night. Rent canoe 1/2 mile from house. Half price is at 5pm. Beehive trail get there early as it is person to person up the iron rungs (scary). Use the bus system and park at visitor center for the only free parking. Beautiful island and home.

Great Location

We loved our stay at Somme's Pond cottage, it was such a great location and easy to get to all parts of the island from there. It also had such a lovely view and surrounding area. Everything about the house was as expected and very comfortable.

Cabin in the Woods

We booked this wanting to stay in a quaint cabin in the woods and that’s exactly what this was! The kids loved exploring the creek and the house had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Thank you for providing the setting for some amazing memories!

A great location!

The property was exactly as advertised on VRBO. Great location just close enough to the amenities of Bar Harbor but a wonderfully quiet location in Mt. Desert. The sound of the flowing stream nearby is great to fall asleep to. Sunrise over the pond is spectacular. The mamagement company is great to deal with. They are very responsive and thorough informing you about the check-in, check-out process. Would definitely recommend this property as a vacation rental.

Great location

The location and views were great. The property needs to be maintained. When we walked in there was a cob web going from the window to the refrigerator, about 12”. Not a good first impression. The bedrooms had cobwebs coming off the beds. They stress to read the guest book immediately but it is outdated. The directions for trash how to use the tv etc have old and new directions together, and directions for items that do not work like the fireplace. The cable and internet was out when we arrived. I contacted Susan who looked into the cable and there was an outage. The internet was never addressed and we were without internet the entire time. This was inconvenient for people who had to work remotely. Most of the outlets upstairs do not work. This would be a great rental if a little more effort was put into maintenance.

Somes Pond Island House

We selected this property in order to be on Mt. Desert Island in a quiet and scenic location. It met this criteria. The property has been owned by the same family since 1962, probably passed down a generation or two. It is gradually being renovated. Some areas, such as the combo first floor bathroom/laundry room were in pristine conditions. Other areas showed their age or were awkward to use. We were able to cope. The property manager responded quickly to help if we had questions. The home was lovely to return to after a day of hiking.

wonderful place to stay

we've stayed in a myriad of places on MDI and this was one of our favorites. on a lake, canoe/kayak rental half mile down the road, for Long Pond. great location for getting to all parts of the island easily. house located back from the road, in beautiful mossy woods, "babbling brook" running past--a great sound "backdrop." very responsive rental agent. the slanted eaves in 2 of the 4 bedrooms might be a problem for tall guests. in general a very comfy house, with a long dining room table and plenty of views of the lake from the living/dining area (large--with long dining room table) and back deck.

Beautiful property

This is my honest opinion about the property in general. We had a great time overall! Pros: Great location-babbling brook, pond and marshes Plenty of towels and extra blankets First floor bathroom was gorgeous! Huge windows provide amazing views Kitchen had utensils and cookware Plates, bowls and mugs were adorable! Carpeting upstairs was nice House was fairly clean (cobwebs here and there) The property managers were phenomenal and wonderfully helpful!! Gave us good recommendations on places to eat! The 2 larger bedrooms had large comfortable beds! Cons: 2nd floor small bedrooms and bathroom has a slated ceiling which is cute but hard on the head when you’re not used to it. The two smaller bedroom beds were uncomfortable. 2nd floor shower has a VERY deep tub to step into making it awkward. The driveway is primitive and tricky to turn around when there are 2 cars. Large ants were found crawling around occasionally in the house. The house is quaint but outdated in some ways. A little bit of updating would really make it more modern and more comfortable. Bring your mosquito repellant. We did not use the grill because of the mosquitoes. Overall, we enjoyed our stay! We appreciated the property managers quick and helpful text messages.

Wonderful stay!

Although we had to cut our reservation short, the property was absolutely lovely. It is exactly what you would want for a family vacation. The sounds of the creek and the view of the marsh are spectacular. The house is comfortable, clean, and provides all the necessities. Susan was also extremely communicative and helpful during our stay.

Rustic Cabin with a Phenomenal View

Great location that gives easy access to both sides of Mount Desert Island as well as off-Island activities. The back deck overlooking the lake makes it all worth it. We watched a family of Osprey as the parents hunted for the young. One morning a couple of minks showed up in the stream, and a Barred owl seemed to make its home in the woods next to the driveway. House itself could use a little TLC, but based I’ll take that in trade for the location and the cost.

Cozy cottage, beautiful setting

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was great, very accessible to dining and other activities in Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Southwest Harbor and Acadia NP. The cottage was comfortable, especially beds and living room furniture. Our stay was in the fall so the weather was very cool. Ample blankets were provided, although the bedrooms are too cold unless doors are left open. There is one furnace to heat the house and it is in the dining room. Both bathrooms had showers over tubs, which would be difficult for people with mobility issues. The upstairs shower is particularly challenging to use. The driveway is difficult to find and needs to be more clearly marked. This was the first time we had used this rental and we enjoyed it so much we hope to make it our preferred destination for viewing fall foliage. The property managers were excellent.

A 5 Star Review for a 5 Star Cottage

This home is amazing! This spacious 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home was everything we'd hoped for and more. Having been hikers to this island for many years (and generations), we've stayed in many locations and Somes Cottage tops them all. We were greeted with impeccable cleanliness. There are large windows facing the pond so you get amazing views from anywhere in the house. The babbling brook behind the house attracts all sorts of wildlife and, turkeys, herons, ducks, and geese visit the pond each day. The location is central to anything you may want to go and do - hiking, kayaking, dining out, shopping, etc. And there were many amenities included that we enjoyed - rocking chairs for reading, board games for rainy days, a washer/dryer on site, large comfy beds, a fully stocked kitchen, etc. Overall, a fantastic stay, and we can't wait to return!
