Great house for our trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia national park. The house was clean and well stocked for us. The host was very responsive, especially when the fire alarm went off in early morning. I do wish there were dressers to store our clothing but that’s just a minor thing that didn’t change the quality of the house or the host!Book with confidence.

Home was exactly as advertised. Accommodations worked well for 5 adults staying 5 nights. Located as described with an easy drive to several entrances in Acadia and downtown a manageable walk. The house was stocked with the basics. Enjoyed the covered deck out back. We would rent again!

This property was wonderful for a family vacation (5 adults, a 5 year old and a two year old). The neighborhood is quiet yet so close to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia N.P. Host was quick with communication. Home was clean, with comfy beds and well stocked kitchen. We appreciated how the floors and stairs didn't creak at all, and how the kitchen, dining room, and living room flowed together for family time, and how there was also a separate family room.

The house was incredibly clean and in such a convenient spot. It was easy to get into downtown Bar Harbor as well as Acadia. The only issue we had was that the wifi was very weak. We would stay here again though!

We had a fantastic stay in Bar Harbor. The property was fantastic and beautifully clean. In fact the property is even better than the photos suggest. We were a group of 6, which included older children and teenagers. We would strongly recommend this property. It’s close proximity to the centre of Bar Harbor is also a plus. We would definitely stay again.
