We had a great experience with “Drop Anchor.” Nicole, was a wonderful host and very communicative. The home was nicely furnished and very clean. The home was a nice size for our family of four. Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park were a short driving distance away. We would highly recommend this home.

Weekend on MDI
My wife, daughter, our puppy and I had a wonderful visit at the Drop Anchor. The house is nicely furnished, very comfortable with room for everyone to spread out. The kitchen was spotless and well stocked. While on the quiet side of MDI, South Harbor with its shops and restaurants is only minutes away. Nicole was very helpful and made the whole process easy and comfortable.

Fabulous Stay in Southwest Harbor Area
The home was very clean, tastefully decorated and perfect for our family meeting spot. Large dining table for dinner or board games. Very comfortable living room. Bedrooms were comfortable and well sized. Location was perfect for us as we like to avoid the crowds yet still be near the main attractions of Acadia. Owner quickly responded to any questions we had.
