About this property

'Spruce Lodge at Hadley Point' Totally Captures the Feeling of Maine!

Maine is called 'Vacationland'--Mt. Desert Island, home of Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park, is an incredibly beautiful place where people come to relax, to play and to appreciate all that nature has to offer. 'Spruce Lodge at Hadley Point' has been designed so that you and your family can stay in a wonderful and comfortable environment while you explore and experience all the beauty that surrounds you! Our charming 3-level home has a bright, open floor plan where the living room, dining area & kitchen share one big space on the main level. Just down the hall is a lovely bedroom, full bath and laundry room. Upstairs is a private loft with a balcony and large separate bedroom. Downstairs there is the family room with game table, beverage refrigerator and a really CUTE bedroom that we call 'The Rose Room' and another spacious full bath. Spruce green (of course) is our theme color & it accents 'miles' of natural pine, fun wallpapers & clean painted walls! The furniture, dishes, art & collectibles were chosen with the Maine Woods in mind!

Activities:: The beach at Hadley Point which is only a block away is a public area where you can launch a boat, have picnics, sunbathe, skip rocks and watch for seals and other wildlife. This is a favorite spot for the kayak rental companies to start and end their day trips-it's fun to watch them come and go- you might want to join them! You can swim, boat, hike and ride bikes on your own or go out on a whale-watching tour or sunset cruise on Frenchman's Bay. There are fantastic restaurants, great shopping and even mini golf courses nearby. There is an awesome 'Art Deco' movie theater called 'The Criterion' located in downtown Bar Harbor and two evenings a week there are band concerts on the Village Green. Several art shows are held during the summer and cruise ships come into the harbor weekly! Mt. Desert Island is truly an Unforgettable Place with something for Everyone!

Wonderful Stay at Spruce Tree

The home was clean and had everything we needed. Location is great! Quiet and close to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Lori is a great hostess sending us recommendations for activities and restaurants. She checked in after we arrived to make sure we had everything we needed. Because of life circumstances not everyone in the group could attend as planned-but all hope to return to Spruce Tree!

Excellent, peaceful and quiet woodsy location very near to Hadley Point beach for sunsets, Bar Harbor, and Acadia National Park. The home was very well appointed and the Hosts thought of everything. You could see a bit of the water from the home. We enjoyed our stay.

Comforts of home

Spruce Lodge is so well equipped, we lacked for nothing. We had easy access to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, shops and restaurants. Our host was very attentive and provided abundant information about the area. The house was immaculate and stocked with spices, staples, paper goods, and plasticware in addition to pots, pans and dishware. We loved staying here! Kayaks, e-bikes on carriage trails, windjammer cruises, and swimming are all close by.

Feels like home

The Spruce lodge on Abbey Lane feels like home. The Wiebrecht"s are very good hosts and have a beautiful property at a great location. We've made many trips to Mt. Desert Island, but the stay at Spruce lodge this time added an especially homey feel to our visit.

Awesome Home

We just stayed at Spruce Lodge at Hadley Point. This home is awesome! Lorie is so easy to work with from beginning to end. The home is fully stocked with everything we could possibly need. We have rented a number of vacation homes over the years and this home was the cleanest by far. It's location allowed easy to all areas of the island and some of our favorites off the island. access

Spruce Lodge made for a great stay for our family of four! The home was very comfortable and had several common areas to enjoy. Lorie provided everything you could need, including items like coolers, beach towels, extra pillows and blankets, and a well equipped kitchen.

Fabulous home!

Spruce lodge was in the perfect location for all things Bar Harbor and Acadia. Easy drives to park entrances. Short trip to Bar Harbor. Easy to get back to Trenton area as well. House was spotless and hosts was easy to contact and quick to respond/assist. House was fully stocked with any and everything we needed. We enjoyed meals on the deck and the kids were obsessed with Hadley point and all the mussels. 5 stars. 10/10!

Fall Hiking

The location was great, easy access to all hiking trails in Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor. Quite setting. The house was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The host (Lorie) was great and gave great recommendations on hikes, restaurants, and things to do. She texted upon arrival to make sure everything was as we expected and it was. Overall a great place to stay.

Perfect Home Base Cottage for exploring Acadia National Park!

Spruce Lodge was the perfect comfortable cottage to serve as a jumping off point for our many adventures across Mount Desert Island, Acadia, and Schoodic Peninsula for a week. My 13 yo and 10 yo loved having their own bedrooms. My husband and I liked having a kitchen to prepare breakfasts, some dinners, and picnic lunches for our hikes. The owner has provided so many thoughtful supplies, extra bath towels and beach towels, and many kitchen accessories, dishes, storage containers, and a grill. The property was very clean and comfortable for our stay. We enjoyed never having very far to drive to any destination, and also enjoyed not being in the thick of downtown Bar Harbor, but close enough when we wanted to go there.

About the host

Hosted by Lorie Wiebrecht

Host profile image
I was born in Bar Harbor and my entire family lives or works only 5 minutes from our rental homes. My husband was born in Wisconsin and he fell in love with MDI the first time I took him there in 1996. He knew even before I did that we MUST have our own property there so that we would always have an excuse to go north whenever we could!
Mt. Desert Island is such a beautiful place - we both are so thankful that we can experience it many times a year and I must say that we are struck by the beauty and the solitude every time we go 'home.'

We hope that you truly have a wonderful time whether it is your first experience or you have been visiting for 20 years.

My Dad's motto is...'If you've never been to Maine you should go and if you have been to Maine...you'll be back!" Of course he is pretty bias on the subject - having lived in Bar Harbor all his life! I wish everyone could get one of his Island tours-they are awesome to say the least!

He started working as a chauffeur at age 15 and he can tell some stories. He and my Mom owned several restaurants and motels and even developed the largest campground on the Island, Bar Harbor Campground which my youngest brother now manages.
Seems like our family has been in the hospitality trade forever and...with all that experience we have certainly learned how to take good care of our guests!
