Quiet side of the Island

Staying in the farmhouse was a wonderful experience - from the well appointed kitchen to the great location, what was not to love. The rooms were all spacious and beds comfortable. The house was a great place to call home while we explored Acadia. The added plus of the washer/dryer was wonderful. We hope to stay here next year when we come back for our annual friend trip to Acadia.

Family vaca

We love all things Acadia, and love being in Southwest Harbor. So this beautiful farmhouse was the perfect location and size for the 5 of us. We enjoyed the grill and eating on the deck, watching a rain storm from the front porch complete with comfy chairs, and slept wonderfully in wonderfully furnished rooms. Thanks so our hosts.

Good family time

The location to Southwest Harbor and Acadia was great. The rental house accommodations were good for our family. Road noise was disturbing. The rental cost for the week was high.

Beautiful old farmhouse

This is a beautiful old farmhouse in very good condition, perfect for our extended family trip to Acadia! It's located on the main street in Southwest Harbor within walking distance from a coffee shop and 5-30 min from all Acadia activities and Bar Harbor. The house has some quirks due to being an old farmhouse (uneven floors in places, barn door on bathroom) but overall was extremely comfortable. The bedrooms are surprisingly soundproof, which was great since we were travelling with a toddler and young kids who went to bed while the adults stayed up later.
