Cozy summer retreat with private deck near Acadia National Park and Bass Harbor

Discover the quiet and Downeast charm found in the quaint village of Bernard, a small working village near Bass Harbor which is home to some of Mt. Desert Island's favorite destinations. Thurston's Lobster Pound and sweet little "Back Beach" are both within walking distance to this home, set off the main road, in a quiet semi-wooded setting at the end of a short lane with few neighboring properties. Small, recently updated, newly furnished for 2022, and ready for your visit, little Wicker Way Cottage is a great find for your Acadia adventure!

Full Bath with combined tub and shower also includes a laundry area and has two entrances, one from the Master Bedroom, and one from the main Living Area. Living Area also features a heat pump that serves as an AC unit sufficient to cool the main living area. Window fans are available for the second floor and master bedroom for where the heat pump might struggle to reach.

SECOND FLOOR: A narrow staircase leads to an open Bedroom with two sleeping areas tucked under the eaves. One side features a double bed, and the other features a single bed. For young children, a child safety gate is available to close off the top of the stairs if desired.

Wonderful Cottage

Our family had a great visit at this cozy cottage. We are glad we stayed near Bernard, much quieter than the Bar Harbor area. The cottage was clean, quiet and peaceful. The space was just right for our family of five. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here.

A week on the quiet side

My husband, our young son and dogs really enjoyed our week away at the cottage! We loved taking daily walks down to the town harbor and exploring Acadia during the day. The house is very comfortable and cozy and we had everything we needed for a great week! Thank you!

Lovely and cozy

Lovely and quite cozy dog-friendly property, great jumping off spot for anything you want to do on Mount Desert Island. Definitely on the quiet side, which has its appeal. The house itself is tucked away behind several other houses but it does maintain its own sense of seclusion.

Love the Quietside

Enjoyed the house, it’s a nice spot, and it was well equipped with a relatively private yard. Nice that it was dog-friendly, as my daughter brought her dog up for the long weekend. The only negative was that the upstairs sleeping area got pretty warm on hot days.

Perfect Acadia rental

My wife and I stayed at 14 Wicker Way with our two dogs and we loved this place. We got to explore the quiet side of the island and really enjoyed it. And you're just a short drive to Bar Harbor. The cottage is as advertised with everything we needed for our stay. We hope to stay here again when we visit next year.

Loved our week here!

We really loved this place. It was quiet, clean, and well equipped. It had everything we needed for nearly a week. We cooked in all of our meals in the kitchen, slept very well, and appreciated the location - both quiet, but also easy to get to everywhere we wanted to in the area including the Schoodic peninsula, Deer Isle, Bar Harbor and all over the main part of Acadia. Communication with the property manager was easy and quick and she was very helpful throughout. Check in and out was easy. Highly recommended!

Perfect cozy cottage

We absolutely loved our quiet side cottage. Everything was extremely comfortable and very clean throughout. The fire pit was so nice in the evenings. The cottage is close to shopping, lots of hiking areas, Bass harbor light house, and the cottage had everything we needed for our stay. We will def be back!

Loved it!

We were traveling with two dogs and loved the privacy this little place provided. Usually we stay closer to bar harbor but needing a last minute change in lodging to take both dogs we didn’t have any options closer to where we usually stay. But this side of the island was a pleasant surprise. We never would’ve spent as much time over there otherwise. Been going there for years, and shaking it up this time was awesome. Definitely would stay there again!

Simple, sunny cottage in quiet area

We had a lovely, quiet stay in early May. No crowds on this quiet side of the island. The cottage was perfect for us and our dog. It was very clean and communication with Marla, the property manager was excellent. When we encountered a plumbing problem, she responded immediately. We would definitely stay here again!
