Not as expected
From the front i thought i was at the wrong place. The back view is beautiful though. The house was clean except there was animal hair all over the couch. It said no pets so that was a big turn-off. The front part of the house had a smell. Not a good one. I couldn't place the smell but it was very off-putting. Lighting in most rooms was by lamp, not ceiling fixtures. Several smoke detector were beeping from low battery so we had to deal with that right when we arived. The set up is very odd. There are essentially two houses put together. The "back house" you access only by the going out the back door and walking on the deck to the other side. Fyi, the "back house" didn't smell so that's where we stayed. You cant lock the " back house" when you leave though or you cant get back in. The bed in the bedroom needs to be replaced as you slide to the center. I was very disappointed with the house. I feel like i paid a lot of money, too much money, to stay there and we would have been more comfortable and saved money to stay in a hotel. With all of the negative, I am adding that I loved sitting on the back porch in the mornings watching the seagulls.

Falling short
Two out of three beds were very uncomfortable. The kitchen had no empty cupboards for the food and staples we brought. Pots we used had to be scrubbed first. Coffee pot was not cleaned out. Somewhat musty smelling. The view was beautiful as the porches overlooked the bay. Upon arrival there were car tracks down the lawn closer to the front door so we unhooked the chain and drove down. One of our family members was still healing from an injured back so getting closer to the door was helpful to unload. However, when we came back after an outing the chain across was padlocked on both sides so we could not get closer to the door. It would have been nice to get a notice ahead of time that they were going to do that. We never heard a thing. Lugging all our things back up to the parking area was a lot.

Beautiful waterfront house,with a distant view of Acadia Nation Park.
This was a wonderful house for a family. You can see Acadia National Park off in the distance on a clear day. Great porch with plenty of room for the whole family eat or just to enjoy the waterfront and views.
