The property was awesome. Within 30 minutes of pretty much everything we wanted to do. The owners truly have thought of everything. Plenty of towels ,charging stations. Anything we could want they pretty much had. Would definitely recommend this for a large family.

A lovely vacation

A beautiful house in a quiet neighborhood. Out of the hustle bustle of Bar Harbor but close enough to get there when desired. Everything anyone would want for a perfect vacation-which is what we had!

Thanksgiving mini vacation

In one word: perfect! The home is spotless, in a location that is super easy to find and loaded with extra amenities. It's got an amazing view across the bay of the mountains in Acadia National Park. The sunrises and sunsets are spectacular and the star viewing superb.

It was our honor to host 3 generations of your family. So glad they loved hiking and the "princess bed" and that you will return often.

Candy Cottage was perfect for our 3 generation family. Grandparents loved having their own bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen on the lower floor. Parents and kids were very comfortable in the three bedrooms on the top floor. We all loved the water views, the open living area, grilling on the large deck, and walking down to the water at sunset. With my adventurous kids, I really appreciated the laundry machines. Owner Tom was very helpful, a great communicator, & had handy info on local sights, activities, and places to get fresh lobster. The town of Ellsworth was convenient for groceries. We all had a blast at the Great Maine Lumberjack Show, which is 15 min from the house. We drove to various parts of Acadia National Park, including the summit of Cadillac Mountain. We also drove to Fort Knox (the one in Maine of course), and the Penobscot Narrows Bridge & Observatory. Next time we are in Maine, we will stay here again!

Beautiful Views & Clean Property

Loved this place - clean with lots of space for my family to spread out. Beautiful views of the water, very quiet neighborhood. We sat on the back deck around the firepit every night. About a 40 minute drive to Bar Harbor, but easy to get there and worth it to have so much space to ourselves. Definitely recommend.

Thank you so much Kelsey. We have a growing family so we worked very hard to create functional spaces that were also comfy and cozy. Places where we can gather, or just sneak off for some quiet time. Thank you for visiting and we hope you return often.

Beautiful, clean home

We had a great stay at Tom’s home! Check in /check out were very easy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. It was a short walk down the hill to the rocky beach but the walk walk back up could be more of a challenge for some older folks. It was about a 30-35 min drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia Natl Park. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Stay Our First Time in Maine

This house is exactly as shown. The owner was the absolute best communicator I’ve had with VRBO and I’ve stayed in quite a few. Lots of space, great views, friendly people. We were there to hike Acadia and see bar harbor. Easy drive to both. We were two adults and five grown kids ages 19-24. Would absolutely recommend!

Outstanding property

I have stayed in > 50 VRBO's This i one of the nicest. Great location for acadia National Park. Beautiful setting for the home. The house was new, clean and super stocked. So well stocked, I thought we were in the wrong house, momentarily. We xisited the park daily and ate lobster nightly. Shout out to Ruth and Wimpy's Restaurant and the Happy Clam for take out.

Best rental experience I’ve ever had!

This was truly the best experience I’ve ever had with a rental! The home was well stocked with everything we needed. The home was clean. Communication with our host was excellent. While it was a little bit of a drive to Bar Harbor and Acadia, the peace and tranquility were well worth it! The views were amazing. Such a quiet and peaceful area. Loves everything about our stay and would stay here again without hesitation!

Peaceful Coastal Retreat

We had an unforgettable stay at this charming coastal home in Maine! The property was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and filled with thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home.The location was ideal: private and peaceful, yet just a short drive to quaint seaside towns, fresh lobster shacks, and scenic hiking trails. We especially loved taking walks along the rocky shoreline.The host was responsive, friendly, and provided great local recommendations. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking, and the cozy living space made for relaxing evenings after a day of adventure.If you're looking for a quiet, authentic Maine experience with all the comforts of home, this VRBO is a gem. We’re already dreaming about our next visit!

Pristine Home, Great Location, Fantastic Vibes

The home looked and smelled brand new, as if we were the first occupants. It was sparkling clean with new appliances and super comfy beds. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed the fire pit just outside the living room, as well as the natural gas-fueled outdoor BBQ grill. Location was great - about a half hour to Bar Harbor. On the way back one day we picked up some steamed lobsters and brought them home for dinner. What a feast! The owners were proactive, providing us lots of info about the area in general and their home in particular. We can't recommend this home highly enough.

Just what we needed

My family just returned from a stay at this lovely property. It was perfect for us. Light and bright and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with and the beds super comfortable. And since there were only four of us (my husband and two teenagers) we each had our own space. The view of the water was gorgeous and so calming. We spent time on the deck everyday and enjoyed the new firepit. The drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor was about 30-35 minutes but I didn't mind it at all, as it was nice to stay in a quiet neighborhood. The owner Tom was super responsive, provided great recommendations and a helpful online manual for the house and the area. It's always great to rent from someone who really loves the area and is proud to share his home. Would definitely recommend this property.

We loved every aspect of this property. The location, layout, amenities, cleanliness, etc all exceeded our expectations. We loved the rocky beach, which felt private and just for us as we never saw anyone else there. Cabinets are all well stocked with essentials, from the game closet to the kitchen we had everything we needed. We were provided with recommendations and a handy electronic handbook prior to our arrival. It was a short drive to Acadia and other busy attractions, but provided peace and tranquility when we returned every evening. We loved this place and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to travel to beautiful Maine!
