A wonderful week in Bar Harbor

We were a family of eight, including two grandchildren aged three and five. This is a perfect house! Plenty of space to relax and play. We enjoyed the enclosed sunroom as well as the outside deck for morning coffee and stargazing. The house is close to both the town of Bar Harbor as well as Acadia National Park so it accommodated to all of activities. We look forward to returning in the future!

Absolutely loved this house and its location! It was so clean and well appointed. They had everything we needed and more to make a comfortable stay. Spacious and perfect for our family of five (kids aged 19, 17 and 15). The oldest used the apartment suite on the lower level. We would absolutely stay here again. The sunroom was the best- such a special place to unwind at the end of the day and have morning coffee. Peaceful and serene yet also so close to town. I felt like we got more than expected here and really appreciated that. Thanks!

What a wonderful experience at Cleftstone Cottage. Ideal for our first family trip to Acadia, and it surely won’t be our last! Extremely well appointed and furnished home that had been thoughtfully designed and so proudly cared for. We could not think of any way that it could be improved!

Cleftstone Cottage is a wonderful property in an absolutely terrific location for accessing all Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor have to offer. We were looking for a place where we could welcome a succession of guests and it worked perfectly for that. There was comfortable accommodations for everyone. Lee and Frank were terrific hosts who were very responsive before and during our visit. The house was well-appointed and well thought out, with everything anyone needed. We will be back.

Outstanding Vacation Rental

My husband and I and our pups stayed at this property Labor Day week, and it is nothing short of spectacular. While there was a small glitch with the check-in process, the owners quickly resolved the issue. The property itself is exceptionally clean and exceeds the highest standards for cleanliness. The kitchen was nicely appointed, the beds were super comfortable and the sunroom and outdoor living spaces were very nice to enjoy after a long day of hiking and biking. The location of the house allows easy access to carriage roads, entrance to the National Park by foot or car and is an easy 15 minute walk to downtown Bar Harbor. The owners clearly take pride in their home and I would absolutely recommend this rental and plan to stay here on our next visit to Acadia NP.
