About this property

Serene home with a deck, grill, firepit, board games, washer/dryer, & mtn views

Sitting on two acres of semi-secluded land, this coastal Maine home is the perfect place to escape to. Here, the stargazing opportunities are brilliant and unforgettable vacation memories are inevitable! When you aren't hanging out at home, check out nearby Lamoine State Park, Marlboro Beach, Acadia National Park, and Ellsworth - for several shopping and dining options.

Inside, completely unwind as you gather on the comfortable seating in the living room and stream your favorite TV shows and movies. The home's well-equipped kitchen is a pleasant space to play chef amongst the updated appliances and ample meal prep space. When you want to escalate your cooking, step out onto the deck and fire up the gas grill.

The bedrooms are tastefully decorated with homey fixtures, soft linens, and cool air - thanks to the home's partial air-conditioning. Additionally, be sure to utilize the private washer/dryer when your clothes need to be refreshed.

As the stars make their radiant appearance, head outside and gather under the glittering twinkle lights around the firepit.

Above Expectations

Nice home, Good location. Had all the amenities we needed and was overall clean and comfortable. My only complaint is the couch and throw pillows need to be replaced, or deep cleaned, smelled like wet dog.
Response from VrboOwner on 16 Aug 2026
Bruce thank you for your feedback from your stay at Bampi's Dream earlier this season. We were glad to hear that the home was clean and well located. We have ensured that the couch got the required cleaning and appreciate that you let us know so we could address that in a timely manner and before future guests experienced that. We hope if you find yourself in the Lamoine area in the future you will stay with us again.

A quiet place to stay and enjoy Acadia

This was a lovely little home, perfect for our family of three! It was located in a quiet, rural setting away from all the busyness of traffic and tourism. We were only a 20-minute drive to Acadia National Park and enjoyed many hikes there. We also enjoyed the small stores on our way back and forth to the park which met all our needs. We enjoyed a delicious lobster dinner (our first!) at one of the lobster shacks located along the way to and from the park. The only thing I recommend for the house is a good teflon skillet for cooking our meals.
Response from VrboOwner on 15 Aug 2026
Lisa - thank you for your feedback after your recent stay at Bampi's Dream. The location is so nice and close to Acadia but away from the busiest area for sure. Lobster shacks are a great place to have your first, second or third Maine lobster! Thank you for the feedback on the frying pan. We will look into replacing or adding that to the home.

Amazing!

We stayed at Bampi's Dream for 5 days at the end of June. The home was close to everything, well-equipped, very comfy, and had such cute decor. We appreciated the air conditioned bedrooms, the kitchen with pots, dishes, utensils…all we needed. The couch was comfortable and the washer/dryer was especially useful after hiking in Acadia every day. Well-done! We hope to return in the near future. Thank you!

Excellent

The house was very comfortable and relaxing. My friend and I had a girl's weekend away and the house was perfect. It was the little details that we really noticed such as having a new sponge and dish soap in the kitchen, hampers in the bedrooms, and nightlights that double as flashlights. The only thing we did notice is that there is a slight smell of dog in the house even though it is a “no pets” property. We would stay there again.
Response from VrboOwner on 19 June 2026
We are so glad you and your friend had a good girls getaway at Bampi's Dream. A great spot near Ellsworth, Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park but definitely off the busy path where you can relax and enjoy this region of Maine. Thank you for your feedback and for noticing those little touches.

A fantastic getaway

The house is in the quiet country. You have the pleasure of quiet, restful, peaceful down time, yet restaurants & grocers are only 15 minutes away. It provides a lovely yard for children to play in & a nice place for enjoying a fire and/or night skies.

Great location!

We loved the house and location. The property was incredibly clean and everything was ready for occupancy when we arrived. The fire pit area was peaceful and the kitchen was stocked with necessary tools. Be prepared to purchase/provide basic spices & seasonings for cooking, if you love to cook like we do. It’s not a problem, but just good to know. The location was perfect for exploring Acadia NP, Bar Harbor and Bangor. And if you’re interested in a more extensive road trip (we chased the sun on a rainy day), the proximity to New Brunswick is also convenient. Multiple board games and cards are available to entertain during a stormy night in. There isn’t a lot of space for walking/running right out the door, but there is a short trail just up the road and Lamoine Beach is a short drive away too. I highly recommend this place!

Wonderful house but poor property management

My wife, 2 sons and I stayed here. Loved the house. It was perfect for us. However, we had an issue when we arrived that made our trip get off to a rough start. There was no hot water. I contacted the property manager and there were no crews available to help. The vacasa representative instructed me to go in the basement and check on things. They said they would get a crew there hopefully the next day. After a couple hours I figured out the issue on my own. I requested a partial refund or credit for the inconvenience and was given an apology. I felt that was not reasonable and will avoid booking homes managed by vacasa in the future.
