Awesome home! Well stocked with everything to feel at home. We didn’t bring a thing with us and didn’t need to. Easy access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. Much better than staying in an expensive hotel! This place had everything you would need to feel at home. We even enjoyed a great fire using the fire pit. Well worth it!

Beautful spot

It was exactly as pictured with a beautful view of the water. Very easy to get to and check in was a breeze. It took us about 15 min to get into the park. The town itself had some great food and icecream! We genuinely enjoyed our stay and we would definitely come back.

Weekend in Acadia

This was a nice property in a good location. Not too busy of an area with good access to Acadia (~30 min to anywhere). There are wonderful sunset views from both inside and outside the house (porch or firepit). The kitchen is well stocked with good quality cookware and utensils. I would stay here again.

Clean, convenient and well-equipped

We have rented many vacation houses, and this one was one of the best we have rented. It was clean, comfortable and equipped with basic necessities. The house was really convenient to Bar Harbor and Acadia (about 20-25 minute drive). The house also had an incredible view, and nice outdoor space. We would definitely stay here again!!!

Beautiful place with nice view

We really enjoyed our stay and communication with the host was prompt and helpful. The location is nice and quiet and not too far from Ellsworth. Unfortunately it is a fairly busy road with no shoulder so there’s no easy way to walk or anywhere from the house. I’d definitely recommend this place for exploring the Ellsworth and Mt. Desert Island area.

Great Stay!

Very clean and tidy property! The location is private with a nice view and about a 35 minute drive to the Hull’s Cove Visitor Center at Acadia. The deck outside is a good spot to sit and relax. The kitchen is one of the best equipped for a VRBO that we’ve ever stayed in. The living room is cozy with lots of seating and a big TV. Internet was great so we were able to stream our own TV service. We had a great time!

Waterview

The home was not on the water but since it is up on a hill, the elevation provided a wonderful water view over / past the homes across the street. The home was well equipped with all of the "normal" kitchen gadgetry so home cooking was not a problem. It's a perfect size for two couples or 5 people.

Beautiful place away from the crowds of Bar Harbor

We did a family trip with our adult sons. This is a well cared for home that has all the things to make dinner, including a lobster cooker. Showers were wonderful. Beds firm but comfortable. We spent a lot of time around the campfire. Conveniently located near Ellsworth but very close to Acadia. Property manager sent us the wrong listing so there was a bit of a panic as to where we were staying but other than that the stay was fantastic!

A private gem within 30 minutes to Acadia!

The pictures honestly didn’t do this property justice. What a spot! There was plenty of indoor and outdoor space for us and our friends. The tri level was unique (not for those with mobility issues). Since we’ve never stayed in Ellsworth, it was fun to explore a new area. Provender, Union River Lobster, and Riverside were our favorite restaurants.The house had a well stocked kitchen (although a tea kettle would be nice). Having a washer and dryer was great.The only noise we heard were roosters but only when sitting outside. What a peaceful spot!The house was immaculate and so easy to clean when leaving!Even though we have vacationed in the area for years, having an information binder was great. Detailed instructions were great when checking in and out.Although we visited with friends, this is also a great rental for a family too.Our friends did report the downstairs mattress was extremely hard.Overall, we would highly recommend this property. Susan, the property manager, was great. She checked in with us and was quick to respond!Thanks for an amazing stay!

Lovely home away from home!

This was our first extended vacation rental and it was the perfect choice. The house was as beautiful as the listing showed, and the kitchen and pantry were stocked with all the essentials like cooking utensils, toilet paper, garbage bags, spices, firewood, cleaning supplies, etc. We loved the peacefulness of sitting on the outdoor deck, grilling on the bbq, the fully stocked bookshelves, and made good use of the many board games for family time! The only hiccup we had was an issue with hot water for the first couple days but Susan, the Property Manager, was fantastic. She kept in constant contact with us until the issue was resolved and was beyond kind. She manages nearly a hundred properties but takes the time to personally reach out and make all her guests feel valued. Thank you so much for making our family vacation restful, wonderful, and the perfect home away from home. Highly recommended!
