We were originally looking for a place closer to (or in) Bar Harbor. Because of the time of year, the options were more limited, prices were higher, and we also read about the number of tourists in the area. So, we expanded our search and found this property. It was perfect and we loved it here. The hosts have done a great job. The apartment is well equipped with everything we needed. It's a short drive to the island and other attractions in the area, and it's located in a very quiet area. We even took advantage of the kayaks and went out onto the lake for a few hours one morning. We would definitely consider staying here again if we are ever in the area.

Peaceful convenience
We had a lovely peaceful stay. Gorgeous views, great to kayak straight out onto the lake. Ellsworth is a gorgeous small town with lots of art, beer and quirky shops. Convenient for Acadia National Park which is a ‘must visit’. The accommodation was clean, well kept and had great amenities.If you want a relaxed vibe this is for you. Ps you will need transport.

Comfortable stay!
This place fit all of our needs. Nice view ofbthe water, comfy king bed, full kitchen. A minor inconvenience with the TV was the lack of the standard broadcast channels, so I missed an NBA playoff game, but Netflix was easy to log on and use. Great place to stay if you are visiting Acadia/Bar Harbor. Oh, and you MUST visit Momo's Cheesecake store! Delicious desserts, all on the honor system!

Peaceful Maine getaway, great for couples
We really enjoyed our stay in this rental. Everything was clean, the King size bed was very comfortable. Great to have your coffee in the yard each morning, listen to the birds, and watch the activity on the lake. Hosts quick to respond to questions. Really appreciated having a washer/dryer available so we did not have to go home w/ smelly running and hiking clothes! Gas station and small market are nearby for any quick grocery runs you might need to do. Easy drive to Bar Harbor/Acadia Natl. Park. You will hear some noise from the upstairs apartment if people are home, but we didn't find it bothersome. Overall a pleasant stay and we would come back!

A comfortable stay
We loved staying here at this cozy waterfront property. It was spacious and with a functional kitchen which was a plus! The location, although a bit away from Acadia, offered an escape from the busy-ness of Bar Harbor. The surroundings are serene with a lake just upfront. Overall a good experience. Just be prepared to check out on the dot at 10.00AM to make way for the cleaners.

Absolutely the best stay ever!!!!
What a perfect stay. The apartment was AMAZING!!! Everything was spot on and then some. Spacious, clean, updated and lacking nothing. What a perfect, quiet location. Hosts were knowledgeable of the area, responsive and made the stay a breeze. Most everything in the area is within an hour drive and anything you’d need is in town 5 min away. We’re making this our go to in Maine when in Maine ;)

Great stay
This was a perfect place to stay. We were within a 30 minute drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. There is a great water view and we could come and just sit outside and enjoy the view after a day of strenuous hiking. Close enough stores to grab what we needed to eat at home. It was a great for the 2 of us.

The Great Maine Road Trip
Wonderful space. Had no propane when we tried to grill dinner and the Host had propane brought out the very next day. We also brought to attention the broken kitchen table chair. We had to bring in outdoor chairs to eat at the table. Hopefully they'll fix that for the next guest. Overall it was a great place and a wonderful trip.

Awesome and Quaint property
Enjoyed our stay in Ellsworth. Loved coming home after a long eventful day in Bar Harbor to a clean and immaculate kept property. My wife loved the kitchen and how well stocked it was with utensils and Tupperware. It could use some central air. On hot days, the window unit struggled to keep the home cool. Other than that, fantastic job on making guests feel at home and comfortable. Well done!
