SeaCat's Rest is a
modern 900 sf suite with full cook's kitchen. It
looks toward the Maine shore through thirty feet of windows, and
comprises the private ground level of a large two family home. Step
outside and you will be 100 feet from the great North Atlantic with
views toward Cadillac Mountain and Acadia National Park. Dig clams on
the shore or kayak in the pristine waters between short trips to Bar
Harbor or the Park's many attractions. Walk up to our local pond for a
refreshing swim or check out Lamoine State Park one mile away. Settle
in for the night with all the comforts of home with our full modern
granite kitchen and entertainment center. There are two bedrooms, both
have queen size beds.

By making a half hour hop to Lamoine from Acadia National Park many
advantages can be found. Prices are lower, beaches and trails are less
crowded and you will not need to sacrifice any bit of the Downeast
experience. You could even kayak one mile to the island or drive 8
miles and hop onto the free 'Island Explorer' bus to avoid crowded
island driving altogether. Our breezy location just about guarantees
pleasant and bug free picnics or clambakes. Our 1/4 mile gravel
driveway removes us from summer traffic noises. Come and see what
SeaCat's Rest has to offer!

September-The Other August!: Here on the downeast coast of Maine
September is slow to yield to the cooling Canadian winds and we often
have a full month of sun and warmth after most tourists have gone.
This is the season of ripening apples, cranberries waiting to be
gathered and the first hints of fall color. Prices are marked
down--including ours, but few seasonal restaurants or shops are ready
to close for the year. Stay until the middle of the month for the
Garlic Festival or the first Saturday in October for Southwest
Harbor's Oktoberfest where dozens of local microbrewed beers are
offered. Find out what locals do when the tourists leave! 

A Few Guest Comments: We just completed our first year of service and
have received universally positive comments from our guests. Since we
didn't have a guest book set up, we received these in the form of
notes or emails. We didn't ask permission to include email addresses
so we must offer these without. Bracketed items contain text altered
to preserve anonymity. Bruce and Kathleen, Our stay was wonderful, as
where the accommodations. However, I believe I left the charger for
our toothbrush on the counter near the dish drainer. If you would be
kind enough to send it to us I'll be glad to pay the shipping you
incur. Thanks for everything, the mint tea, being the perfect host,
and whatever I forgot to mention. [R and J] I took this pic yesterday
to send to friends in Texas who will probably all now be calling you
for reservations. This was so lovely we thought you would enjoy! [L. P.] 

Wow!! What a beautiful place you have. We thoroughly enjoyed every
minute of time we spent at your Sea Cat apartment. We took the girls
down to the waters edge and they just could not believe it was the
ocean. They were able to see the shore at high tide one day and low
tide the next so that was a lesson in tides they don’t get to see too
often. The sail boat tied up to the shore also added to the mystique
of the moment as they explored the rocky shoreline.... Tami, she just
inhaled the whole place and the wonderful view....The apartment was
very, very comfortable and the beds were great. ..We had a great time
while we were there and want to thank you so much for letting us stay.
It was super. [D. M.)
