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.

We absolutely loved the property. Very spacious, stocked kitchen, lots of activities for kids. We looked forward to going back to the property each afternoon to enjoy the play set and yard. The management company was super accommodating and very easy to work with. Already looking forward to a trip back in the near future.

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.

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.
