Amazing stay

The location is amazing, quiet but right off the main area in Bar Harbor. Less than a 5 minute walk to most of the restaurants and the harbor. About a mile from the Acadia entrance. Parking in Bar Harbor is definitely a challenge so we very much appreciated the convenience of all the restaurants and shops right next door. Veena the property manager was very nice and responsive. We had a minor issue with our shower and it was fixed right away. The property is clean and has soap, paper towels, detergent, cleaning supplies, coffee etc. I would highly recommend staying here!

Summer Trip to Bar Harbor

This property is very close to downtown and central to everything you would want to do in town. Also, it’s very convenient to access the park and feels very safe. We enjoyed our time.

In town Bar Harbor!

Great spot! The condo is “in town” but tucked behind the busy street… just a few minutes walk to the shore and bat island! It was super clean and very comfortable. Very sweet spot - highly recommend.

Perfect place to stay

The location of this rental could not have been better. Walkable to everything including groceries. You can also easily drive to all the hiking trails without having to fight through pedestrian traffic. Nice spacious property. I had no problems with anything while staying there and didn’t need to contact the management during my stay. However I left something behind and they contacted me before I even realized I was missing it. They shipped my belongings back to me immediately and were so kind and helpful.

This property has the perfect location! Being a block back from Cottage gave a safe, easy place to park and plenty of privacy while still being close enough to walk everywhere. Very clean and had everything we needed. I appreciated all of the towel racks…so many times rentals have one tiny rack and we end up hanging towels over doors and closets. The family room area was comfortable and enough seating that we all had a place to relax on a rainy afternoon. I would highly recommend this property when staying in Bar Harbor.

We love Bar Harbor!

The location of where we stay is the key! This place is right in the heart of Bar Harbor. Walking distance to everything, and right next door to “A Slice of Eden”, a favorite breakfast/coffee spot of ours. We love hiking in Acadia every day, and being right there made it possible. The unit was very clean, and welcoming. We loved it. Definitely will stay again! Thank you for such a great experience.

Perfect Home and Perfect Location

We loved our stay!!! We were 3 adults and this home was more than enough space for us. It was very clean and had lots of staples in the kitchen that we didn't need to purchase. Loved the location...very close to all of downtown as well as the park. We parked our car and walked to downtown for restaurants and grocery store. Minutes from the park entrance. We had an issue with the hot water but Veena and Will were on top of it.

Great Place

This was the perfect place for us. Included all the comforts of home (except I never found an ironing board). Very clean, beautiful kitchen, comfortable beds, great local. Perfect walking distance to everything downstreet and just a short drive to Acadia. The only reason for 4 stars is, like another review stated, the furniture in the living room is extremely uncomfortable and the room is just poorly set up. It made hanging out in the evenings and spending a rainy day in unpleasant at best. The room downstairs has a nice sofa but still not set up comfortably.

Great Location, Cute place

This was the perfect place for our family to stay for our Acadia trip. Each kid had their own space which makes trips go so much smoother (2 adults, 1 tween, 1 teen). Being one block off one of the main drags made everything very convenient. The townhouse is updated and we have zero complaints. I would definitely stay here again!
