About this property

Bar Harbor Home Near Everything

This exquisite log home is unlike anything else in Bar Harbor. Newly built with every attention to detail and décor, it was designed to be a perfect retreat for guests with the most discriminating tastes. When you walk in you are met with a breathtaking living room and dining area with hardwood floors, a large stone fireplace, down sofa, wrought-iron chandeliers and rustic handcrafted coffee and dining tables. A two story wall of windows above the fireplace overlooks Cadillac mountain and the peaceful secluded woods surrounding the house. Double French doors open onto a wrap around deck perfect for entertaining large groups with a gas grill and outdoor seating. Inside, the beautiful brand new kitchen is furnished with every amenity including a dishwasher, microwave, gas stove, double sink with stainless steel fixtures, and an island that is open to the living room making it a perfect place to re-connect with family and friends.

Walk upstairs to the alcove loft that overlooks the living area for a quiet retreat, or continue on to the master bedroom complete with a walk in closet and private balcony. The attached master bathroom has a Jacuzzi tub, double granite sinks, and stainless fixtures. The bed has a queen sized luxury superior comfort pillow top mattress. The remaining four bedrooms are equally as comfortable with the same queen sized mattresses, “log” beds, dressers, and ample closets. On the lower level is a large game room with a brand new 8 foot pool table and a foosball table, additional double French doors and a third full bath.

Finally, one of the best attractions about this home is its location. The house is 3 ½ miles from the enchanting Village of Bar Harbor, Mt. Desert Island’s artistic, culinary, and social center. Located on the shores of Frenchman’s Bay, it offers the charm of a small New England fishing village with all the attractions of a major resort including restaurants, shopping, and a lively nightlife. The house also borders Acadia National Park, and is less than a mile from the Atlantic Ocean. Nearby are entrances to some of the best hiking trails in the country, as well as a huge variety of outdoor activities including canoeing, kayaking, rock climbing, deep sea fishing, sailing, biking, and much more. Also close by is the popular Sand Beach, Thunder Hole, and Cadillac Mountain, the most beautiful place to watch the sun rise in the country.

Family vacation

We enjoyed the convenient location but the house could have been a little cleaner. We're foodies so we brought our own knives and pans. Otherwise, the house was a good fit for our family.

We enjoyed our visit. The home had plenty of space for our family. It was very convenient to the Park Loop, Acadia, and Bar Harbor. The pool table was well used with challenges between the family members.

Bar Harbor Puffin Adventure

We loved our stay at this Bar Harbor log cabin home that was within minutes of downtown Bar Harbor, Thunder Hole, The Wild Gardens of Acadia (highly recommend), Schooner Head Overlook, Asticou Azalea Garden and several accesses to the park. This place easily sleeps 10 people with all the comforts of home. The beds were comfortable and included 2 pillows per person. There was an abundance of towels and we never ran out of hot water! The kitchen was well furnished with cooking equipment and tableware. The oven, stove, toaster, coffee maker and dish washer worked well. There was lots of space where the family could gather together or hide if you needed a little quiet time. My 3 year old granddaughter loved the deck - great place for her to play and ride a little bike. The side porch with the entrance to the house was covered allowing us to unload the car and quickly get out of the rain on arrival. We used the fire pit twice to make some-mores. I highly recommend this home for vacation.

Cabin in the woods

Property was great. Accommodations were everything they said they be. Just far enough away from town to be very peaceful but close enough for those town adventurers.

What we liked •lots of natural light, great forest view•close proximity to everything •5 bedrooms with queen beds was perfect•Beds very comfortable, but too tall.•Grilled steaks & veggies -- delicious! •open space kitchen, dining, living areas perfect for being together. •plenty of dinnerware •upstairs bathroom spacious•glad for washer & dryer •appreciated sunscreen & bug sprayImprovement needed•Sticky/gummy finish on dining table was impossible to clean. Bought cheap disposable table covers. •Stove-top light didn’t work.•Toaster doesn’t lift up; had to unplug toaster & use fork to get the bread out•Grill drip pan, filled to the brim, not usable. •Upstairs bathroom grout in the tub has mildew. •The basement bathroom & 2 bedrooms had spiders & cobwebs in the corners at the floor & ceiling. •The basement bathroom shower has mildew & sink is missing a stopper.•Basement bedroom near bathroom uncomfortably warm with no A/C; the fan provided helped but not enough.•Basement bedroom further from the bathroom had no curtain on main window, though rod was there. •Only one pool table cue stick was usable. Others were missing the tips. •we found a load in the dryer that included a disintegrating shower carpet. It left a lot of gritty crumbles that required thorough cleaning before we could use the dryer. We wiped out what we could with paper towels. We found the shop vac & used that to clean the dryer better.

The Maine Event

We had the best time on our girls trip. There was 8 of us. the house was wonderful with such great access to downtown and the national park. The best were so comfortable. The only time we needed to contact Ken, things were taken care of immediately. It was an enjoyable and memorable trip for all of us!!!

Our stay at 141 Otter Cliffs.

Beautiful home. Great location. Had a wonderful time in spite of the rain. Easy access to Acadia and Bar Harbor. We had a lot of fun playing foosball and pool. Made some wonderful meals In the well stocked kitchen. Our week flew by. The reason for only four stars on the description is the mention of a hot tub. My daughters are avid hikers and bikers and were disappointed to learn the “hot tub” is actually a bath tub off the master bedroom with jets. All in all a lovely home that we would happily visit again.

Enjoyable Maine reunion

My family and I enjoyed returning to Maine after 25 years. Acadia had been a favorite vacation spot for me, my children and brother and his family. So this was a special vacation as we returned with my grown children and their young boys. The house was spacious for our group. The children enjoyed the pool table, games,etc. They loved roasting marshmallows at the fire pit. The house could have been cleaner though. Also we were seven people and there were only 7 forks which meant we had to wash forks throughout the day to have them available. Overall, the house was in a great, quiet location with plenty of space for all of us to spread out. We particularly appreciated that it was so close to Bar Harbor and its shops and restaurants.

Wonderful Cabin in Acadia

The location of this cabin was perfect! So close to Bar Harbor but still felt very private. We went in town regularly to eat, rent bikes, shop and site see. Also, it's so close to all the great hikes and sites in Acadia. The Cabin is very roomy and was perfect for our family of five (all adults and one 10 year old). Loved the foosball, pool table and fire pit. There are plenty of towels and we did use the washing machine, which was nice. Kitchen was fully stocked with cookware and dishes. Grocery store is very close, however with so many great places to eat in Bar Harbor we didn't really use the kitchen much. We did see some turkeys on the driveway! It felt very private and the deck is amazing! Very cozy cabin with a nice "open" feel to it. Our host, Ken, was also wonderful. He is very quick to respond if you have any questions or issues. He definitely took care of us and also gave great recommendations. Thanks Ken for a wonderful stay in your cabin. We hope to be back in the future!

This house is all about the location! It sets on a beautiful property and is a mile from access to Acadia Park loop road, not to mention close to town. More than enough space for 5 adults to lounge around. The weather was starting to turn to fall so using the fire pit and having the fireplace was so nice. Had a question, and the property manager was so quick to answer. Highly recommend.

7 of us stayed at this little hideaway cabin and really enjoyed ourselves for the whole week. There was hiking and cycling, antiquing, lobster rolls, ice cream, making art, sightseeing, sunrises and sunsets, stargazing, and celebrating a milestone 50th wedding anniversary! We had a lovely time on our 7th trip to Bar Harbor and would highly recommend the cabin if you want something clean, quiet, and close to town.

Family vacation

The property was beautiful! It was secluded but close to everything we were interested in doing and seeing. Unfortunately, the weather was not very cooperative so we werent able to enjoy the firepit as much as we would have liked. The house was everything it said it the description. The beds were awesome. I would definitely recommend this rental!!!
