Perfect location!

We felt like we were in the center of Acadia, but without all the crazy crowds! Nice wooded lot with access to a stream and lake. (We wished we had had time to use the kayaks!) Easy access to the “quiet side” hikes. The inside provided everything we needed for our stay. The king bed was very comfortable, and the microwave, fridge, and coffee maker allowed us to easily eat in when we wanted. The hosts provided SO much helpful info about the area, and we used many of their suggestions to plan our activities!
