A Getaway to Southwest Harbor
The name gives you a good idea of what to expect: it’s located on the southwest corner of Mount Desert Island in one of Maine’s most picturesque regions; it’s also in the middle of Acadia National Park and pretty darn close to a number of magnetic towns and inviting vacation homes. In other words, it looks like the stars are aligned for a successful adventure.
Visiting this part of the state opens the door to a bounty of outdoor opportunities; get your wilderness fix by hiking, fishing, sailing, whale-watching and if you’re here during the winter, skiing and snow tubing. The landscape is lovely during any time of year, and visiting to see the fall foliage or falling snow will mean plenty of quality time spent cozying up in front of the fireplace, too. Enjoying your surroundings definitely includes taking pleasure in the amenities of your log cabin or cottage in the woods, so choose wisely and make yourself at home.
The town scene is easy to love, as well. Antique shopping, ice cream eating, strolling the historic tree-lined streets and generally enjoying what is certainly a calmer atmosphere than you’re used to will definitely do your mind and body good. This region is known as “The Quietside” for good reason - you’ll only be about 15 minutes from busy Bar Harbor so sampling the buzz will be no big deal, but you’ll never feel stuck in a crowd if you don’t want to be.
Savor the choices and relish the views; this is Maine as it was meant to be experienced.
