What our guests are saying...
Compass Rose is praised as a spacious, comfortable, and beautifully laid out home that works especially well for families and groups. Guests consistently highlight its immaculate cleanliness, bright interiors, comfortable beds, and well-stocked living spaces and kitchens that support an easy, relaxing stay. The property is appreciated for its peaceful, private setting with convenient access to nearby island destinations. Its standout feature is the stunning waterfront scenery, with gorgeous water views, memorable sunsets, and inviting decks and porches for taking it all in. Guests also enjoyed the path to the shore, the small private beach, water access, outdoor seating areas, and thoughtful touches like books, puzzles, and binoculars.
Overview
Admire breathtaking views of Sawyer's Cove toward Blue Hill Bay from this stunningly situated home on the western shores of Mount Desert Island, where you'll have an expansive wrap-around deck right near the water. Built in 2004, this bayfront home is modern, spacious, comfortable, and tucked neatly into the island's mature woodlands. You and your family will be treated to two complete levels of living space, two full kitchens to make cooking with your loved ones a breeze, and wonderful access to Southwest Harbor, Bar Harbor, and the incredible landscapes of Acadia National Park. A community tennis court is perfect for outdoor recreation.
Beachcombers and kayakers will appreciate being able to walk just a few steps to the shores of idyllic Sawyer's Cove. Should you choose to leave the property (and you may not), the bustling villages of Southwest Harbor (seven miles) and Bar Harbor (14 miles) are only minutes away by car, and you'll find the Seal Cove portion of Acadia just down the road. When you're not strolling the Ocean Path or cycling on carriage roads in the park, you can enjoy the very quiet cove watching shorebirds and beautiful sunsets. Please respect the families in homes nearby, and remember that sound travels clearly over water.

The house of spacious and bright. The back of the house faces the water, and has a beautiful view of the water with awesome sunsets. It could afford to have some of the brush and trees cleared, to make it even better. I got a tick while I was there the first day, because I walked to the outdoor sitting area to see the view. The downside, is the front door is difficult to lock and unlock, the placement and size of the TV in the upstairs living is not ideal, and the furniture in the lower level living room needs to be replaced. In the reviews, many people complained about nonexistent internet. We had no issues while we were there. The place was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. We would stay here again!
Beautiful, quiet, remote location but only 20-30 min from Acadia. Large family space and big bedrooms. Beautiful deck with views of the water. We were a group of 6 but easily could accommodate 8. Large kitchen with lots of dishes, cooking supplies. Book this place! You won’t regret it! 100% recommend!
The deck overlooking the cove was lovely.
Very clean and spacious.
Really enjoyed our stay!
Spacious home with beautiful view of lake, sunsets and stars at night. Bring all the food you need cause hannaford grocery is about 30 minutes away in bar harbor. No pizza delivery either but can order and pick up about 20 minutes away. We found the king and queen beds to be comfortable but not the twins. So nice to have 3 full baths! We had new iPhones on different networks and mostly had 1 bar. WiFi is spotty for sure. With only 1 tv, that’s on the small side, families might find it a challenge if tv is important.
