Great location. Easy walk to downtown Bar Harbor and short drive to many of the trail heads at Acadia. The house is lovely and exactly as pictured- we had deer and wild turkeys wander past the window each day!

The property was very clean and beautiful. The hosts provided so many extra little amenities all through the house. Bathrooms had everything you could imagine if you forgot something. A snack basket was filled with local Maine products that we got to taste. The blueberry soda was delicious. A bundle of wood was waiting as well as everything needed to make some-mores. The area is beautiful and within walking distance to just about anything in town. I gave the property a 3 star review about the description accuracy because the property info said 2 1/2 bath when it was only 1 1/2 bath. We had six adults, but it was workable. The owners were very quick to respond when we questioned this and said they were adding a bathroom and did correct the listing. We had a great time and it was a great property.

This was the perfect place for our family of 5 while visiting Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park! We had everything we needed and especially enjoyed the view of the water from the chairs in the front yard. Having our morning coffee there was amazing! And the games in the garage were a bonus. We highly recommend this property if you are visiting the area!

Everything you could think of...they had it!

What a tremendous stay at your home. Our son was getting married that weekend and we needed somewhere close that would house our aging parents, our daughter and boyfriend and all the groomsmen. The yurt was perfect for the groomsmen. The two car garage has everything we needed for a space for family after the wedding. Unfortunately it was cold and wet so the inside space was perfect! Highly recommend this home as they had thought of every little thing you might have forgotten at home. I had brought our gluten free toaster and my mother in law thought they had supplied that too because there were so many other details available. Walking distance from town was an added bonus. We did not feel like we were anywhere near town. It was so quiet. Owners were communicative and delightful! If you're hesitating......book it. You won't regret it.

Well stocked, super comfortable home with lots of extras!

The home was well stocked, clean, roomy with lots of little areas to explore outside with gorgeous nature all around. The yurt was a huge hit! The home is located close enough to walk to downtown for shopping, local tours, and the marina. It's also remarkably close to Acadia and all the wonderful trails to hike. The owners were super responsive, kind and quite easy to work with. We would definitely stay here again!
