Not satisfied

First of all, we could not communicate directly with the owner so that was not good. If you arrive in the dark, the house number is not very visible. We drove around a couple of times before spotting the house number. There were no directions as to how to operate the television therefore, we could not watch any sports. There was an issue with the upstairs plumbing. Would not recommend unless better communication is available.

Perfect stay, with one recommendation

Location and home was absolutely gorgeous. Favorite part was the screened in porch (though both doors to access outside and grill seemed misaligned. One was difficult to open and the other the lock was broken so you couldn't open). The only recommendation for improvement I would make is to upgrade the comfort of the bed. Mattress was mediocre (with plastic mattress protector similar to a crib mattress), sheets were rough and pillows were flat so made for a bit of uncomfortable sleep after long day hiking.

We found the property to be quite uncomfortable. The beds, pillows, couch, kitchen table, and chairs. It was clean enough, despite a washer full of dirty towels. Odd layout as well.

Great cottage on the Quietside

Great cottage on the Quietside of the MDI. Perfect for friends with two separate bedrooms and baths. Wonderful screened in porch where we spent most of our time when we weren't exploring Acadia National Park.

Lovely quiteside cottage

My family of 4 very much enjoyed our stay this past week! We love being able to drive into busier tourist areas but stay in quieter areas. The screened in porch was our favorite space...we ate meals, played card games, and took in the sounds of nature. We highly recommend staying at the Creek Cottage in Bass Harbor!

Maine ( Acadia ) visit

Good location short commute to all attractions, quiet neighborhood, great screened in porch, kitchen was key gathering place, sitting in living room area wasn't great but we were not there to sit in the living room. Entryway was super nice with bench and hooks to hang stuff. All the necessary amenities for what we needed. Acadia was amazing and Bar Harbor very nice little town with a lot to offer. 10-35 minutes to everything Acadia/Bar Harbor

Perfect home if bringing a small dog.

Very clean home. Very nice screened in porch. Alarm going off at 3:15am first night sucked after 11 hr drive. No explanation either from Vicasa. Living room couch leaves a lot to be desired. Not comfortable to sit on at all and forget about the pull out inside. Made the pullout bed but never slept on it - was uncomfortable and was stained. Thankfully there are a few blowup mattresses upstairs and that worked out great. Despite the few negatives- would definitely stay here again. Wonderful spot and well kept.

Nice quiet side vacation

If you’re looking to get away from the crowds and hustle around Bar Harbor this is a great option. Stayed here 4 nights with our family of 5 and a dog and it met our needs perfectly. It’s about 30 minutes to the Bar Harbor area so if you want to be closer to the tourist sites this wouldn’t be for you.

Bass Harbor Cottage

The Creek Cottage House was in a great location, close to Southwest Harbor, Acadia and Northeast Harbor. The spacious kitchen and outdoor grill made for a great dinner on our first night and there are many restaurants nearby for dining out. In spite of the fog and rainy weather we all had a wonderful time, including our Golden Retriever!

Great location, super clean place in Bass Harbor

Nice stay for our first time in Bass Harbor. 30 mins from Acadia. Great outside porch with gas grill!! Heat took a long time to warm the house so we went to bed with many blankets and then woke up to a warm place. House could use some additional touches such as a coffee table and ottoman. Beds are ok but not the most comfortable. Skylights are great to see the sky at night. Overall good first time in Maine.

Nice Vacation

The house was very spacious, clean and fully stocked. It was located in a peaceful setting, not far from attractions. We did lose internet for some time. A call was made to Vacasa and the agent was very nice. He had to inform the local contact, however we did not hear from anyone during the week. It did come back on eventually. I would 100% recommend this place to everyone!

Clean cabin home

Our stay was great! Super cute and clean house to stay in during our trip to Acadia. Located pretty close to some great hiking spots in NP. Only issue was that the curtain in the bottom bedroom was broken when we arrived and couldn't close all the way. Luckily the dresser was easily able to cover the bottom part of the window so no one could see in at night. Either way we would definitely stay there again because this house was perfect for our trip as a family of 4!

Beautiful and Comfortable

We had 3 adults and a dog stay for 5 nights and loved it! There was enough room for everyone to move around and the trees in the backyard made the trip peaceful. Only negative was that the shower pressure wasn’t the best and it could have been cleaned a bit better. Overall, the place was great. We spent hours in the sunroom! Would book again.

Gorgeous home in a gorgeous setting

This beautiful, new construction cottage was the perfect size for my wife and I, our two toddlers, and dog. It’s nestled in the woods so you’re surrounded by nature, but only five minutes from every amenity. The grounds are impeccably kept, the house is modern and spotless. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more. Thank you, Creek Cottage!

Good location, but sparsely furnished.

We enjoyed our stay here…there aren’t many options for short term house rentals in the area. This is a very new home It is sparsely furnished, but has the essentials. Water pressure wasn’t very good- showering in the upstairs bathroom wasn’t enjoyable. Very convenient to Acadia, which is the main reason we chose it.
