About this property

Well-Appointed Downtown BarHarbor /Walk to Everything/ Mins to Acadia


Renovated in July 2020. This is a 4 bedroom 2 bath. The first floor master's bedroom has en-suite bath (tub-shower combo). Prime location on a quiet dead-end street in downtown Bar Harbor. The home underwent a complete renovation in 2020. The location is perfect for walking to shops, dining and entertainment. Walkable to the town waterfront which is a hub for sightseeing, whale watching, kayak tours, etc. This is ideal for those wanting to enjoy the convenience of downtown Bar Harbor with very easy access to Acadia Natl Park.

This house has parking for 2 vehicles. It has an outdoor outlet close to the parking space.

This house is designed with comfort of our guests in mind.
There are many spaces to spread around the house.

There is a porch with two cozy swivel sofas for conversations/downtime in-between your adventures.

To the left of the house is a fenced outdoor patio with cushioned chairs providing seating for six. It has an oversized umbrella provided with solar lights providing nice ambience at night. There is an outdoor BBQ grill. The place is perfect for lounging anytime during the day or evenings.

The living room has power leather recliners (sofa, loveseat, & recliner)to enjoy the 70 inch smart tv. We offer complimentary Netflix and Disney + so you don’t miss out on your favorite shows & movies!

The dining area offers a dining table for 6 and 2 for breakfast counter dining.

The kitchen has a granite counter top, and is equipped to cook a full basic meal. We also provide a lobster pot and crackers.

The master bedroom has a 55 inch smart TV with its own master bath and washer and dryer. It has an armoire for your clothes.

The house is four seasons. It is heated with baseboard water heater in the cold months of November to early April. The outdoor patio furniture's will not be available from November to April. The grill is however available during these cold months if requested.

Highlight of location:

This is in a prime location. You cannot get any closer to the Village of Bar Harbor as well as access to Acadia.

Picture yourself waking up early in the morning to drive up to Cadillac Mountain and be one of the first to see sunrise in America-then spend the rest of your day in Sand Beach, Jordan Pond, hike Ocean path etc.

At the end of the day- you go home- leave your car in the house and walk through town, have ice cream, have a nice afternoon or sunset stroll along the waterfront or shore path and enjoy dinner at one of the restaurants in the Village- or opt for take out and enjoy your meal while at Agamont Park and enjoy the amazing views of the Waterfront.

The Hulls Cove Visitor Center of Acadia National Park is only 2.5 miles or 6 mins drive from the house. Access to Eagle Lake through the carriage roads is a mere 2-3 minutes ride.

The property has parking for 2 vehicles, depending on the vehicle size. This is a huge convenience when parking is very limited during peak tourist months and since the town had instituted parking regulations/ restrictions and parking meters

Guests with service animals are encouraged to notify the host / owner because of animal hair allergy by one of the owners / host who is closely engaged with maintaining the property.

We take pride in the cleanliness of our property and adhere to an enhanced cleaning protocol.

This was a wonderful place for our family to gather in Bar Harbor. The hosts thought of everything to make it a comfortable stay. We appreciated the fully equipped kitchen, including a second refrigerator. The indoor and outdoor dining areas were both comfortable for our group of seven. There was plenty of room in the side yard for us to store bikes. The bedrooms were comfortable and AC units worked great to cool us down during the unusually hot weather. Bathrooms were updated and stocked with plenty of towels for all of us, and the first floor washer/ dryer was very convenient. Location was very easy for walking to town or for getting to the park. Host was very accessible and responsive to questions. Overall a great experience with this property!

Great home in Bar Harbor

The accommodations at Mercedes and Robard’s home exceeded our expectations! The home was extremely clean, well stocked, and filled with thoughtful details making for a very enjoyable stay. All the beds (even the twin beds in the kids room) were extremely comfortable. The home was walkable to town, but removed from the main streets, so was very quiet and private. It was also a quick drive into Acadia. The hosts were very responsive to questions before and during our stay and very thoughtful giving suggestions for events happening over July 4, which we appreciated! We wished the check in were a little earlier but would still love to have the opportunity to stay at this home again in the future!

This house is beautiful! Very well stocked with kitchen supplies, including a large coffee maker as well as a Keurig. The living room area and several of the rooms also have TVs, and the upper floor bathroom is spacious enough for multiple people to get ready at once. The host was also SO helpful, offering loads of suggestions for things to do in the area! Would definitely stay here again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house worked beautifully for our needs. We loved the central location. It was wonderful to be in walking distance of the harbor and town. The home was clean and a quiet location. The downstairs set up was especially conducive to spending time together.

Family getaway

This property was perfect for our one week trip with our family. We brought our adult children with their spouses and our youngest who is twelve. The four bedrooms fit us perfectly. Having a kitchen for breakfast and the washer/dryer could not have been nicer especially with all the hiking we did. The location was great- quiet and a within walking distance to town.

About the host

Hosted by Mercedes Ang / Robard Abraham

Host profile image
We moved to Maine in 2005 and have fallen in love with this beautiful State. From the crisp clean air, crystal clear lakes, majestic mountains, bold coast. We love being so close to Acadia National Park. We enjoy the outdoors and love to fish, hike, & eat good food.

Not our primary profession but we have a passion for hosting. Mercedes is the “interior designer”. Robard is the “layout artist”. We work as one along with our cleaning crew, carpenters, plumbers, and electrician to provide beautiful & comfortable places to delight our guests!


All our properties are thoughtfully designed with guests’ comfort in mind.

We are always all ears from our guests for recommendations, as that’s how we grow to provide quality accommodations.

May all our guests enjoy their stay and create wonderful memories!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of its location, being in a quite dead end street but just a few blocks from the bicycle shop, restaurants, and stores. The house was old and we renovated the whole place (inside and out) to accommodate the needs of vacationing guests.
We came to know our neighbors who are year round residents who are very pleasant. This is a plus as we do not have to worry about partying or loud neighbors.

What makes this property unique

We like this house because we were able to create our personal touches.
