As long-time residents and business owners in the Northeast Harbor community, we are thrilled to welcome you to our home.

We encourage you to make use of our gas grill for cooking on the patio.The cottage has fast wireless broadband internet and a 50” UHD Smart TV so you can use your Netflix login to watch your favorite shows. A gas fireplace and driftwood table (pulled from Some’s Sound in the 1970s) accent the space eloquently.

We’re looking forward to your stay!**Please note: bookings in July and August are Sunday-Sunday only with a 7 night minimum**FAQs:Q: How close is the cottage to Acadia National Park?A: Great question! Many first-time visitors think that the only way to get into Acadia is through the Park Loop Road in Bar Harbor, but in reality the park is spread out all over Mount Desert Island (and beyond) and is connected via the extensive Carriage Road and trail system. The closest access point (and our favorite) is the Brown Mountain Gatehouse, just 1.5 miles from our doorstep!Q: How many vehicles can I park?A: The driveway has a capacity for up to three vehicles.Q: Is early check-in available?A: Unfortunately we are unable to offer early check-in as we almost always have a group checking out the same day as the next one arrives. We need the entire time between groups to properly clean and prepare the space for your arrival.Q: Are pets allowed?A: No, pets are not allowed at Impressions Cottage.Q: What if the weather is bad/the Park is crowded? Can I cancel?A: Our cancellation policy allows for a full refund up to 14 days ahead of arrival and a 50% refund between 7 and 14 days. Just as our guests expect to have their reservations honored, we also rely on consistent bookings to continue operations and do not have the ability to absorb last-minute cancellations as many hotels do. Though we can’t control the weather, the Mount Desert Island area has lots of rainy-day activities to keep you entertained any time of the year!Q: How far away is Bar Harbor, groceries, etc?A: Distances to local attractions from Impressions Cottage:Bar Harbor (restaurants, grocery store, hospital, etc.): 11 miles / 20 minutesBrown Mountain Gatehouse (and entrance to Acadia): 1.5 miles / 4 minutesBangor (big-box stores, airport): 51 miles / 1 hour 15 minutesDowntown Northeast Harbor (restaurants, bars, shops): 0.3 miles / 2 minutesEllsworth (shopping, supplies): 20 miles / 31 minutesEV Charger (Level 2): 0.9 miles / 3 minutes (located at Town Marina)New England Outdoor Center/Baxter State Park (for white water rafting, moose watching, climbing Mt.
