Photos and Description of the Southwest Harbor vacation cottage rental
2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 4 Pet Friendly!

The Little House at Wild Meadow farm is “in town” but away from it all on a private road with a crooked stream, wild lupine fields and pretty grounds. Repeat guests are frequent and accolades common: “Our third year, and it just keeps getting better. I’ve been coming to MDI for 20 years and this is the most “comfy” house I’ve stayed in.” (Jen, Jenny + Mollie the dog) “We’ve had such a lovely week...The House itself is such a gem – light-filled, comfortable, clean and so thoughtfully decorated.” (Julia, Spiro + Theo) “Little House has been the perfect respite. We love everything about it.” (Rob + Elizabeth) Bathed in sunlight from morning till dusk, the Little House features vintage hand-cut beams, airy living room, high ceilinged master bedroom, cozy twin bedroom, galley kitchen with open dining area, sky lit bathroom and small deck. A short walk to the shops and restaurants of Southwest Harbor. Easy access to everything: lakes, hiking, biking trails and ocean. Includes WIFI. If your dates are not available for The Little House, please also consider our newly renovated companion guest quarters - The Green House - property #3469270.

Beautiful but uncomfortable beds

3 of 5
Submitted: February 9, 2010 Stayed: August 2009
this cottage is beautifully decorated and on a very nice piece of property with a private yard and a deck. It would be perfect if the beds in the master bed room were not so uncomfortable. The mattress is super soft, we turned it over which made it a little better but we still felt like we were not able to sleep well at all. I also contacted the owner after our stay about an item that we might have left there and she never responded.
