This property and home was absolutely gorgeous!! Everything that we expected from the photos. Views were amazing, rooms were cozy and entire stay was peaceful. Location is close enough to easily travel into bar harbor but far enough away to be quiet and enjoy the views on the water. Quick access to Acadia National Park too!This property was so charming, Would stay here over and over again.

Absolutely perfect location for Acadia and Bar Harbor while having your own slice of heaven with the view! Our family of 5 loved this property and we played many games of monopoly, enjoyed cooking lobster at home, and meals out at Bar Harbor Lobster Pound practically across the street. It was easy access to Acadia National Park near the Hulls visitors center entrance. We were up early and explored every morning to get parking at the trailheads. Everything was easy at this place!

Baycliff is an amazing property with stunning views that is convenient to all Mount Desert Island has to offer. We really enjoyed our stay and watching seals almost daily in the bay. The owner was very responsive and the information provided with activities, history and other recommendations was very helpful.

We had a wonderful stay here . The house was clean and stocked with everything that we needed. My only complaint would be the living room furniture. There wasn’t enough seating for everyone and it was uncomfortable the same goes for the deck other than that the house was great and the location was close to town

We've repaired the couch cushions. Also - we can bring up a chair(s) from the basement. We don't keep more seating in the living room to maintain its open feeling.

Came to Baycliff for a week of cross country skiing on the Acadia carriage roads. The house is wonderful! It is very warm and cozy. The views are truly like a postcard. The kitchen had the appliances/dishes/utencils/pots and pans I needed to make my own meals and the washer and dryer were very helpful. The location is very convenient to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor. The owner was extremely responsive and friendly. If you have the opportunity to stay here, do it!

The house was clean, views were amazing (especially sunrise), the kitchen was well appointed (would like a toaster), rooms have amazing views of the bay, the deck would have been great to utilize but the weather was cool, loved the drive through the woods to get to the house, and the host periodically called to make sure all was well.Property was very private.
