We loved our stay at the Precipice Tiny House. Acadia Yurts is a quiet community, close to Acadia and good restaurants in Southwest Harbor. And it is close enough to Bar Harbor that we enjoyed multiple meals and hikes in that area but far enough from the hustle and bustle to be peaceful. The hosts thought of everything and had instructions or recommendations for anything we needed.

The precipice tiny home was everything we needed after hiking around Acadia. The hosts Karen and Aaron were very easy to communicate with and have everything clearly laid out for easy check in and check out. If we ever get back to Acadia or Maine we will most certainly be staying here again!

Thank you for staying with us during your visit to Acadia National Park! We’re thrilled you found the tiny house clean and well stocked with the supplies you needed. Your other feedback is correct as well, there is no TV or bathroom sink in the tiny house. The lack of TVs is an intentional feature of our property. As an eco-friendly glampground, our brand is centered on reconnecting with each other and with nature, so none of our units feature TVs, nor do we advertise that they do. The bathroom also does not have a sink, and that detail is specifically noted in the listing and shown in photos of both the bathroom and kitchen from multiple angles 😊
