Quietside Tree House - Peaceful 1-bedroom studio with AC in Acadia Mount Desert

Nestled on the Quiet Side of MDI, this studio is just 1 minute from Long Pond's public beach, and close to all of Acadia's main attractions — yet tucked away from tourist traffic and road noise. The single open studio features a queen bed plus two futons, making it a comfortable fit for couples, friends traveling together, or families with young kids. The deck is perfect for grilling and dining, while the firepit and hot tub offer a quiet spot to unwind after a day on the trails or water. Converted from an old barn built from trees harvested right on the property, the Quietside Tree House has a rustic-meets-modern character you won't find in a standard rental. Exposed wood and thoughtful design create a warm, open retreat that still feels bright and airy. (Note: the studio is located on the second story, accessed by stairs.) Guests have private access to a cozy firepit nook shaded by trees, a hot tub, and an outdoor patio with a grill and dining area. Kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards can be rented at the north end of Long Pond, a 1-minute drive away.
