Beautiful House, Perfect Location!

Our family of five had an amazing stay! The house is so clean and cozy. We are a family of five including three teenage boys. The location is perfect. On a quiet street at the end of town. Super easy to walk into town or along the shore path. Very close to Acadia entrances. Drive your car or catch the shuttle at the town green. We happened to have a perfect weather week. Blue skies and calm seas. It was a great family vacation in Bar Harbor. Would definitely stay in this wonderful house again. Thank you Jaqueline!

Favorite Bar Harbor Home

We head up to Maine every year for summer vacation, and we often stay in Bar Harbor. This was our favorite stay by far. The property is in a fantastic location to enjoy all that Bar Harbor has to offer - two of the best restaurants in town right at the end of the street, many more in easy walking distance, shopping an easy walk, shore path right around the corner, perfect in every way. We had a small problem with the stove, and messaged the owner - she was instantly responsive, and actually had a new stove delivered the next day. Never had that kind of responsiveness from a vacation home owner before! Our experience was 5 stars all around.

Perfect

We have been coming to MDI for years and this is one of the best properties we’ve found. We had 2 adults and 4 teens ranging from 13-19. The neighborhood is perfect. We walked along the shore path every morning, and took the LLBean shuttle everywhere within the park. We got a weeklong membership at the Y and our teens went over to work out and play basketball. The house itself was just great. It is the epitome of a quaint New England home with all the modern conveniences. The backyard was a beautiful oasis. We would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline Smith

I live in the neighborhood with my family and I was raised in Bar Harbor. I love to travel, I'm an avid hiker, and my husband owns and manages a local restaurant.

Why they chose this property

This cottage is the kind of place we would want to rent, if we were visiting Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. The convenience of being able to walk downtown to restaurants and shops makes it an easy place to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

The Shore Path is just around the corner and the Sunday Farmers' Market is on the end of the next street. The entrance to Acadia National Park's 'Loop Road', including Sand Beach and Compass Harbor is a direct route (south) from Main Street, close to where the cottage is located.
