This is a wonderful place to stay. 30-40 minutes from Acadia NP but so far away from the Bar Harbor’s hustle and bustle. The cottage is clean and well equipped with cares. The only slight downside is the dining option in Ellsworth is not very exciting but Bar Harbor is close enough as well as all the roadside lobster pound/shack on Rt 3! Will definitely stay here again when we are visiting Acadia NP.

Beautiful Views!!!

Ellsworth Maine is one of our stops on our 2 Week Rd. trip through New England… We chose to spend an extra day in Maine, since the view views were so beautiful…. We absolutely loved this house…. We actually enjoyed the house so much. We went to the grocery store and cooked our first meal in two weeks there…. The holiday house was easy to find and plenty of places to explore... We have even been talking about going back in the summertime to be able to enjoy the water too and this is the perfect place to stay…

Cabin in the woods

We absolutely loved this little cabin. It was spotless and decorated so cute. There was an amazing amount of storage, so clothes and luggage were all put away. It was too cool while we were there to swim, but we enjoyed the view of the lake. We will definitely stay here again.

Family Vacation

My husband, son and I stayed here on our family vacation to Bar Harbor. Cute and secluded cottage in the woods with views of Leonard Lake. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor but close enough to visit the Harbor and Acadia. We really enjoyed it and will recommend it to our friends! Super cute!!

1st Maine Vacation

We were very pleased with our stay at the lake house. We had many amenities provided to us. It is in great location if you want to visit Bar Harbor and Bangor, just wish they would fix the road(lol). We will definitely come back when we visit Maine again. I recommend this place to anyone who visit”s this area.
