House was very cute and has a nice open floor plan with a lovely kitchen and lots of seating. The deck was sunny and very comfortable. Great location close to Acadia and Bar Harbor shops and restaurants. Lobster Pound near the house was our most favorite. Quiet neighborhood and easy accessibility from main roads. Would recommend!!

My husband and I stayed in this lovely home for five nights. The house is spacious, comfortable and in a great location for the area. We liked that it was near Bar Harbor and Acadia NP, but in a quiet area away from the crowds! There are a lot of kids toys and games and even outdoor playset making this a perfect home for a family outing. It would also be a great couples getaway or even a girls getaway vacation rental. We loved it and wouldn't hesitate to return if we come back to this area.

What a wonderful spot. So private, no other houses visible. We truly enjoyed our stay, and there were many small touches that made travelling with a young child that much easier. Communication with the host was also quick and efficient, and problems were dealt with immediately. Looking forward to when we are next able to stay.

Nice apartment and good location. However the second bedroom was not presented as it was in the photos. In the photographs it shows a double bed with bedside tables and lamps either side of the bed. In reality the double bed is pushed up against a wall and there was no bedside tables or lamps.

Perfect family base for visiting Acadia National Park

The house was very clean, the kitchen was stocked and great for making family meals, the fire pit was a fun end to our days of hiking, and the property was so close to the national park. The rental company and owner were both very responsive.

Great July 4 week family vacation

We planned a trip to Bar Harbor with my son and his family and chose this home based on reviews, pictures and location. We were not disappointed. This home is in the perfect location. The kitchen was well equipped and it was nice that there were spices and some pantry staples available. The master was great but the other 2 bedrooms only had double beds and would suggest queens. The children loved the toys and games that were in the house. e. The kids also enjoyed the jungle gym and s’mores by the fire pit. One of the neighbors owned an oyster company and sold them by the dozen on the honor system - what a treat for us! We were concerned about being able to park in Bar Harbor and it was so convenient for us to go to the Acadia National Park visitors center and hop on the free Island Express shuttle. We were close to the park, lobster pounds breweries, and the national park. We made many wonderful memories during this vacation.

Wilderness retreat

Couldn’t ask a nicer place to stay. House was lovely, new, well kept, and well stocked all the way around. The property manager was quite attentive to our needs, even texting me weather updates while my family and I were driving to the coast during a Hurricane! Many wonderful memories were made in the area. Highly recommend the property and manager, Susan.
