Book a hotel near Wendell Gilley Museum, Southwest Harbor

"This was a great location on the island: away from the crowds with short drive into Acadia and easy access to the carriage roads. Restaurant next door was good. "

"Perfect location to walk or bike into Southwest Harbor, upper level apartment was just the right size for three people."

"The rental was outstanding. Clean, conveniently located, close to downtown Southwest Harbor restaurants and stores, but just a couple blocks down the street so it was nice and quiet. Great, convenient parking right behind the building.Helpful, fun information from the host, along with outstanding communication from the host Ed.We loved this place and would highly recommend it for anyone heading to the Acadia area or just looking for nice getaway.Thank you!"

"This house is in a great location & made a fantastic home base for us rusticators. We accessed the whole island easily, including bicycling the Acadia carriage roads, hiking Cadillac Mountain, shopping in SW & NE Harbor, walking to Bar Island, sand dollar hunting at Seal Harbor Beach, dining in Bar Harbor and an evening sail on the Margaret Todd. Handy maps & guides helped with planning our activities. Loved gatherings in the well-stocked kitchen which easily supported baking scones, prepping lunches or dinners. The deck was a fun place to hang out & play cards, and we took advantage of the charcoal grill as well. Conveniently provided were sundries like paper towels, spices, trash bags & saran wrap. Bathrooms had plenty of fresh towels, shampoo & soap. A older party member felt there were not enough comfortable places to sit -much of the furniture is older or antique. Beds & bedrooms were comfortable with plenty of linens, but only one bed suitable for an adult couple. Overall, being in the house was like being invited into a home where generations have lived and loved. The art, books, and antiques around the place lend an eclectic and cultured vibe with a touch of mystery - the collectors of these books were curious people and loved nature, history, theology, art & literature. Examining them reveals the names of family members and handwritten notes & poems fall from pages of the books. Nathan was great & very responsive to any questions we had. Would definitely stay again."

"Nine of us, aged 3-63, spent a week at this home while exploring Acadia National Park. We found the location to be perfect for us, as it was easy to travel to different parts of the park, and we enjoyed exploring and eating in Southwest Harbor. The house itself was fantastic. It was well maintained and had tons of space for sleeping and hanging out together. The kitchen was well stocked for making meals and we found the beds comfortable. Lots of bathrooms for our large group was a welcome bonus! One bedroom with its own bathroom and living/kitchen space was downstairs and that worked out great for our parents with a young child. The screened porch was amazing. The grounds around Pavilion House were beautiful and well supplied for outside fun. And checking out was the easiest process I’ve ever had in a VRBO! Marc was super easy to work with and always responded to questions quickly and thoroughly. We would love to stay again!"

"Sparkling clean and very spacious with gorgeous waterfront view. We were in Driftwood. We appreciated the amenities provided, the clear instructions on check in and out as well as the tips provided. There are wonderful breakfast options nearby and while we spent most of our time in Bar Harbor and Acadia, we appreciated being away from a busy downtown. Just note that from the more popular Acadia attractions, this is about a 20 min drive. Road noise wasn't too bad, we used the fans and ran the AC and sound machine. "
