Amazing location!
We absolutely loved our stay at Tricia’s property! The home was clean and had everything we needed. The view was even more than we expected. Having access to our own beach and kayaks was such a special treat and the star gazing at night was an unexpected bonus! Being on the “quiet side” of the island definitely came with some perks! Tricia, was so easy to communicate with. She even scrounged up a high chair for our baby so we didn’t have to fly with ours. It was a joy to stay here!

Great location on Mt Desert
Great location on the quieter side of the island but drivable to more popular areas. Beautiful overlooking the water and nice to have our own private water access. Host was very responsive and gave good suggestions. We felt comfortable and welcomed - our home away from home for the week!

Highly Recommend!
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our 4-night stay here. Highlights were the beautiful view from the back deck and the hospitality of our host- Tricia went out of her way to make sure our needs were met throughout our stay. Would highly recommend booking!

We loved it here!
The property was perfect for our family of 4. It was very clean, with enough space for 4-5 ppl. Kitchen was well stocked with supplies and the bathroom had plenty of towels. Tricia (the owner) was easy and quick with her communication. The check-in and check-out process were a breeze. The view from the deck is stunning. The property is close to Echo Lake and Acadia Mountain and not far from Park Loop Rd. You need a car to stay here if you're planning to explore Acadia. We would stay here again. And as a bonus - we were able to buy lobster straight from Tricia and cook them ourselves!

Couldn’t ask for more
Property was in a great location with easy access to all things Acadia. Patio was most amazing thing about the house. Perfect view for AM coffee and evening dinners. If you forget anything, it seemed like the home owner had thought of it and it was available at the house. Bug spray, sunscreen, laundry supplies, anything. Whenever I get back to Acadia, I plan to stay here again.
