Very nice property. Very convenient to Acadia and Bar Harbor!

This house was very nice. It is secluded with woods surrounding and was quiet. Getting to and from both Acadia and Bar Harbor was very easy and took maybe 15 minutes. Would definitely stay here again!

The appliances and furnishings were showing more wear than pictured. The towels should be donated to a pet rescue and new ones purchased. All full bathrooms should have ample supply of towels and washcloths, and not keep all in the basement. There was a sign that said something to the effect of "these may look stained, but they're clean." That's weird. The basement has a mildew/mold issue and smells; triggered some allergies. For the kitchen, the listing didn't state coffee pot or Keirug so we assumed Keirug...and bought the wrong coffee. Please list what you have in the kitchen to make shopping easier. PLEASE REMOVE SOFA COVERS, unless there are pets coming. Everything was covered, as if we had dogs and allowed them on the furniture. Or what was under those covers that was being hidden? Expected more for the price we paid. The location was good, and appreciated that we didn't have to clean the whole place on top of paying the high cleaning fees that comes with renting.

Acadian Woods Retreat is located within 10-15 min of downtown Bar Harbor and is set a short distance from a quiet 2-way, 2-lane road. The woodland surrounding is serene and has ample parking for 3 large vehicles without blocking the driveway path. At night, motion-sensitive floodlights brighten the 1-lane driveway, the parking area, & entrance. The rustic house is a work in progress: The large master bedroom on the 2nd floor has a queen bed and is the most comfortable of the 4 bedrooms, with its own full bath - oversized tub, narrow shower, toilet & sink at children’s height. All of the beds have lovely quilts, but the linens on some beds were worn thin. The large capacity washer & dryer in the basement were very helpful in bringing the freshness of the blankets, bed & bath linens to our standards. There are separate AC units on each floor that work properly and are assisted by floor fans. We encountered 2 problems during our 10-day stay at Acadian Woods: 1) In the Vrbo listing, it is stated that no pets and no smoking is permitted. These policies were the deciding factors for my choosing Acadian Woods over several other properties. Upon arrival, I discovered a dog bed in the living room,

Good property in good location

We enjoyed our stay at this house. Check in/out was smooth and the host agreed to a late check out which helped us since we had watched the fireworks the night before. Location was also great - outside of town and away from the Bar Harbor craziness, but also close to Abel's Lobster which we went to twice. 10 mins from Acadia. We really liked the outdoor space and ate breakfast on the deck every morning. There was no propane in the tank when we arrived so they told us where to find the spare and they also brought a new tank. Overall I found the host very responsive.Everything was generally clean but a lot of it was old - old sofas/sofa covers, bedding, pillows, comforters, etc - so it did feel worn. There is only central heat, and it has separate AC units which are very loud. Didn't bother me but it bothered my husband. The downstairs (with 2 bedrooms) is much colder than the rest of the house, and we couldn't ever figure out how to get it warmer. Again, didn't bother me that much but it bothered my 87 year old mother. Just make sure to take into account who will be in which room and you'll really have a great time.

Great house peacefully tucked in the woods. Easy access to Acadia and Bar Harbor for hiking, site seeing and restaurants. We liked coming back to this peaceful location after a long day exploring!
