In Town and a Quick Walk to Acadia National Park

This newly renovated three-bedroom and two-bath house on Ledgelawn Avenue features a happy backyard, plenty of sleeping area, and a small office where an internationally best-selling novel was written. Really.

There's a grill outside on the deck, a second oven, a big gravel driveway and it's all in incredibly close proximity to Great Meadow Loop (for a hike), the Park Loop Road and in-town Bar Harbor. Lilacs bloom. Birds sing. And it's an incredibly happy place to enjoy Bar Harbor.

Wonderful place!

The house was perfect for 5 adults and a quick walk to downtown Bar Harbor. Shaun was extremely accommodating when we had to modify our stay and was very responsive. House is very well equipped for cooking and spending quality time together. I would definitely return. We were also welcomed with a delicious homemade blueberry pie and were pleasantly surprised to find.an opened coffee in the cupboard as well. Would highly recommend

Plenty of space for us

We chose this property for the number of beds and short walk to town. It was perfect for our group. The kitchen was one of the most well-stocked we've ever stayed at. There was cone shaped coffee filters, coffee, sugar, sugar-substitute, salt, pepper, various seasonings/spices, plenty of pots/pans/utensils, and a kettle to heat water for tea. The bathrooms were just as well appointed with plenty of towels, handtowels, washcloths, hand soap, toilet tissue, and a hair dryer. We loved all the original artwork, provided games/puzzles, and new outdoor front porch furniture. Having a washer/dryer and provided laundry detergent was a plus as we arrived by airport/rental car and didn't want to haul too much from out of state. We had one hiccup during our visit but the host was quick to respond. Would definitely recommend this house/location/host to all!!

Fantastic location, great house!

This was our first vacation with both our little ones—a three year old and a 5 month old. This house was perfect! Right away, we were happy with the amount of space and the comfortable rooms. We made a lot of use of the fully stocked kitchen and the three year old likes playing with the toys and games. The very best part was its proximity to the Main Street of Bar Harbor and the playground that is right around the corner. We could walk to get ice cream and avoid having to fight for parking. We also spent hours at the playground in between hikes. All in all, this is a great house for a family. We really enjoyed our stay!

Awesome home base for a hiking family

We loved the proximity to both the park (walking and driving) and town. Also right around the corner from a playground that was top notch! Huge playing fields right around the corner as well. Safe, pleasant neighborhood with sidewalk all the way to town. Easy walk for our group of seven. We loved it here. Thank you!

Could have been a bit better

Stating that there was A/C was misleading. There were window units in only 2 of the 3 bedrooms and no where else. The window units were extremely loud making it difficult to sleep. The house and yard were a bit rundown and the inside could have been cleaner.

Great location for anything on the island!

Plenty of room for our family of 6! Kitchen was great for preparing breakfasts and dinners. Accommodations were just as pictured. Couldn’t have asked for a better location to walk into Bar Harbor (get dinner, drinks, ice cream!!), ride a bus into Acadia, or drive to the beaches a bit further away. Shaun was very friendly and accommodating.

Memories of Acadia

Family memories of Acadia go back to camping there in late 1950's and many times since so this was a great location to revisit those days. We were very comfortable in this home and especially appreciated the cleanliness as well as the little extras supplied like dishwasher detergent, paper products, laundry detergent. Host responded quickly to questions and requests. The location in Bar Harbor and next to Acadia couldn't have been better.

What a great home!

Our family had a great time at this home. It was close to trails at Acadia National Park and walking distance to the town. We never had to worry about parking which was wonderful after the fireworks display. We climbed mountains to see breathtaking views, walked trails, took a whale watching expedition… so many things to do. Our family made memories that will never be forgotten. I highly recommend this home.

Our Bar Harbor home

The instant we walked into this beautiful home, every member of my family said it felt like we were home! Best compliment ever. Shaun and Carrie have created a perfect home for a vacation in Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. It is set up exactly as they advertise and is even better than the pictures online. Every question we had and a couple of small items we needed during our stay were brought over to us as soon as they could reasonably get to us. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space in and outdoors. The covered porch was perfect for evening relaxation but the best on rainy mornings. Fully stocked kitchen that felt like a real kitchen and not a bunch of kitchen leftovers from a yard sale. Fridge and washer/dryer new and plenty of space. Plenty of towels and accommodates for 8 people as advertised. I would highly recommend this home and the excellent homeowners made our stay a great family vacation memory!

Great for families

Great house with plenty of room for a family of five. Quick communication from the owner. No street noise and a park with multiage play equipment about a block from the property. It was an easy quick walk to downtown where there was a good variety of shops and restaurants. There was a large grocery store at the edge of the downtown area and the kitchen had what we needed to make meals. It was a short drive to the Acadia park entrances. We would definitely stay here again.
