Great place for multiple families

Our group included two families with 5 kids. This was a great house with plenty of space for everyone. We especially enjoyed the screen porch and huge fireplace. We spent many evenings after hiking warming up by the fire.

Water Retreat

During our Maine visit, we wanted to experience Acadia and all it had to offer. We chose this location to stay because it offered bedrooms/bathrooms for everyone and a quiet place to come home to. We were not disappointed.

Great family gathering

The check-in was easy. The home was spacious, comfortable and clean. Very well stocked kitchen with pans, dishes, cookware and grilling tools. The house was so comfortable but the star of the show was the backyard with planting of seating for all of us,the fire pit and the stunning g view. We used the propane grill one night and the outdoor seafood pot outdoor on an additional propane stand. We all enjoyed our stay.

Quirky Castle - a must visit

We hosted our friends and family over a late summer weekend for our small wedding at this huge, quirky home. It was a great place to host a dinner party - the home is fully stocked with everything you’ll need. We had a large group with some small children and there was plenty of space to spare. The location was serene - right on the water - and copious parking for all our guests. We took away some fond memories and look forward to coming back

Awesome!

This place is great! Several families with a bunch of kids and you could always find a nice quiet place to relax. The sunsets are amazing and the night sky is gorgeous. With the amazing library, the big living room with a fantastic fireplace, a huge dining room table that fit us all, and baths in every bedroom, this place is beyond fantastic. The kids even pulled fresh mussels from the bay and we made them for dinner. There is also an adorable downtown that throws you back in time with all the modern expectations. Love this place!

Perfect Anniversary Celebration

We cannot say enough wonderful things about this home. The location was perfect, the views were incredible, and the house was outfitted with everything we needed to celebrate my parents’ 55th anniversary. We spent some time in Bar Harbor and Acadia, but Winter Harbor had so much to offer as well. The house even had everything we needed to do our own Lobster boil. We spent our time at the house enjoying the lovely view or playing around the rocky beach as the tide came in. This was such a special trip for our family and this home added to our unforgettable trip.

Great place to get away/ a hidden gem

What a wonderful place to stay and unplug. It is such a great location. The house is located right on the ocean and each bedroom has a view of it. The house is just a mile away from the town center, which includes a small super market, 5 and 10 store, coffee shop, a restaurant and a hot dog cart (that serves the best French fries and lobster rolls). There is also an entrance to Acadia National park, which is less crowded and just as beautiful the part on Mount Desert Island. This is a hidden gem, that probably want stay hidden for much longer.

We rented this home for a large family get together: grandparents, 3 children with spouses, and 9 grandchildren. It was perfect! Each family had their personal space with gorgeous harbor views through screened windows (lovely ocean breeze at night!) and an ensuite bathroom, but there was also tons of space to play and hang. The kitchen had everything we needed to host large meals, including the outdoor grill and firepit. We loved the pretty dishes but plastic plates was a plus given the young children. The home's location felt private and the landscaping was well thought out for both the view and access to the rocky shore. We would definitely stay here again!

We called it our castle on the coast!

A group 10 women stayed here for 2 nights. It was so much fun! (*watch the house numbers as both vehicles’ gps systems sent us to the next door neighbors). Plenty of room to spread out but also hang out together. Beds were comfy, pantry was WELL STOCKED, plenty of water pressure and hot water for all. Great location right on the water where we could watch fishermen checking their lobster traps every morning. Our only regret was that it was raining so we couldn’t enjoy the fire pit. Perfect location for going to Acadia without the crowds!

Great Long Weekend -- Great Spot!

Away (but close enough) from the congestion of Acadia and Bar Harbor, The house is located with complete privacy. Away from roads and noise and people. Beautifully renovated with modern kitchen balanced well with large spaces and porches. Landscaped to make the most of harbor/ocean views and sunset. Was even possible to launch paddleboard from the craggy shoreline at low tide. No A/C in a hot spell was manageable with fans. And wifi worked as you'd expect with 20+ people on a single signal helping with the isolation even though problematic for remote workers. Great stay and the ladies at Coastal Posh were super helpful, communicative and responsive.

Perfection

I can not say enough great things about this property. The pictures do not do it justice. My favorite part is the outdoor space. We had nightly gatherings around the fire pit enjoying the serenity, view and the stars. We were also able to fish off the rocks in the ocean behind the backyard. The kitchen was the most stocked that I have ever experienced at a rental property. The property manager was an absolute delight to deal with. And very easy to get a hold of. We had 20 people staying with us and never once did it feel overcrowded or like we were on top of each other. We had plenty of space to spread out. If you get a chance, you absolutely must take advantage of the private chef. Devon was friendly, professional, easy to work with, and most importantly fed us an amazing dinner. If I ever come back to Maine, I am 100% staying at this house again. And I highly recommend it to anybody.
