This is a new, spotlessly clean, house on a wooded lot 30 minutes from Bar Harbour. The ground floor is very compact, unfortunately the floors creak (a lot). The upper floor has one bedroom and a large open living area. There was no proper live TV in the house which was disappointing. Overall the house served our needs for our 3 day visit to Acadia.

The condo was in a great location with easy access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. It was very quiet there and we had deer in the front yard one day. The walk trail across was a great place to get some exercise.
