Charming cottage in the perfect location
We had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage. Nestled in a peaceful location, it offers the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor, while still being conveniently close to both the town and Acadia National Park. The cottage is well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay, including a fully functional kitchen for meal preparation. Grace was incredibly responsive and attentive, ensuring that all of our questions were promptly answered. If we return to Acadia National Park, this cottage will undoubtedly be our top choice for accommodations.

Cute Sparrow Cottage Stay
The cottage was in a perfect location for my family's one week stay. Only a short drive to Bar Harbor, the beach at Seal Harbor and the trails and carriage roads of Acadia. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need for preparing any meals. The air conditioner and heaters (one cool night!) worked very well. I recommend this cottage to everyone planning on visiting the area!

Cozy cottage
Great communication with owners. Nice cottage. Close to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Very convenient location. We had 2 adults and 2 teens and enough room for us all. Full kitchen allowed us to have breakfast at home, make lunches for outings, and eat dinner in when we wanted to.

Sparrow Cottage was amazing!
We loved the coziness and location. We were out of the busyness of Bar Harbor but close enough to easily get to excursions. So easy and quick to get to our hikes and bikes along Park Road. The place is spotless and comfortable! Enjoyed the deck every night. Very responsive host! So accommodating.

Cottage in a perfect location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay (first time in Maine!) at the little cottage on Otter Creek Dr. It was the perfect place to experience everything in Acadia and Bar Harbor. Debbie was extremely helpful with answering questions and giving good suggestions before our trip, and she was very responsive when we had a little problem with the toilet not working. A very nice plumber came out first thing the next morning to take care of it! Thank you for everything!

Great vacation
We didn’t spend much time at the house, but what we did was comfortable and luckily the weather cooperated and we could use the back deck.

Cozy and convenient: Wonderful vacation!
We had a wonderful time. The Biallas family was welcoming and made sure that the house was well prepared for visitors. Our kids loved sharing a room. The beds had drawers for each of them to organize themselves. This was our first trip to Maine and to Acadia. The cottage was located close to town and to Acadia. We didn’t want to leave!

Anniversary Vacation
This was our 1st trip to Acadia/ Bar Harbor. The cottage is near the excitement of Bar Harbor, the peacefulness of Acadia National Park. It is clean & inviting. The owners were quick to respond to our questions & gave us some recommendations for local stores & restaurants. It was perfect for our 40th anniversary vacation. Thank you!
