Ingrid provided information about house and area as soon as I booked. House was exactly as listed. It was my husband and 2 adult sons with plenty of room. Location was convenient - Echo Lake and miniature golf a quick drive up the road. We would stay again!

The townhouse was just perfect for our family of three. Airy and comfortable, with everything we needed for a few days in Acadia. The beds were very comfortable and it was so nice to have a good washer/dryer to clean our clothes after a day of rock climbing and hiking. We did not do any cooking, but the kitchen seemed well-appointed. The host was very responsive and helpful as well. We would definitely stay here again.

A clean utilitarian townhouse, as advertised. Some observations: only one washcloth provided; pillows not comfortable; ice maker didn’t work and no ice cube trays provided; adjustment rod for blinds in upstairs bathroom missing; not enough soft surfaces to reduce echoing. The location was very convenient and quiet. Would consider this property for a future visit.

Great quiet location!

Great location on MDI. Easy to get to EVERYTHING and very little traffic. If you are looking for low key, cleanliness and a welcoming deer everyday, this is the place to stay. Definitely would stay again. Everything has been updated...could use a couple of rugs to soak up the sound while talking or watching TV. Can't beat the location!

Great house in the quiet of Acadia

We had a great stay and plenty of space. Our host thought things for a family to stay and made our visit to the area a warm and welcoming experience. The home was stocked with all sorts of needed products and even included extras we were not expecting.

Convenient & Comfortable Townhouse Near Acadia

Very clean and roomy townhouse for our group of two couples. Our host was very communicative and has a large selection of brochures and tips for seeing the area, plus a lovely bottle of wine. We would recommend this vacation home and would gladly stay again if in the area.

Great location! We enjoyed staying in Southwest Harbor. It was easy to get to Acadia National Park trails. But, there were some nice restaurants and shops so close to the townhouse. Everything was neat when we arrived and Ingrid had it well stocked with everything we needed. It was nice to separate spaces to eat, relax and sleep!! This was my second visit… and I would return! Thanks!
