We were once again wowed by our stay at Falcon's Nest. Bobby and Sandi are Super Host for a reason. This home has it all from the comfy furniture and beds to the most well-stocked kitchen we've ever come across. This rental doesn't feel a house, it feels like a home. The proximity to town is great for those who enjoying walking to restaurants and/or shopping. Once again, I'll be counting the days until our next stay!

The house was in the most perfect location. We walked everywhere and the drive into Acadia was extremely close as well. Especially if you’d like to see Jordan Pond and Cadillac Mountain. The hosts were attentive and responded quickly. The house was also stocked perfectly, we loved the amount of towels and blankets. The house was very clean and fit our group of 5 very well. Would definitely stay here again!

The home was perfect in every way for our family of 4 plus small pup, Close to Acadia and walking distance to town. The fenced in yard was wonderful for the pup and kids, as was the proximity to the YMCA, playground and fields. The home was extremely clean and well stocked with kitchen supplies, linens and towels. The host (Bobby) was extremely responsive and gifted us and the pup and arrival treat. Highly recommend this home for a convenient, clean and quiet visit to Acadia and Bar Harbor.

Absolutely terrific place that was perfect for the 4 of us (two couples). The place was exactly as advertised, and was in an ideal location, walking distance to downtown Bar Harbor in the evenings and a short 5-minute drive to Acadia National Park for the day. House was also well equipped for meals when we ate in. Bobby the host was incredibly attentive. When we had an issue, he not only responded promptly, he was at the house a few minutes later to make sure we could figure it out. Would definitely stay here again when we come back to Bar Harbor.
