Clean, excellent condition accommodations

Great option for a family vacation. Clean, newly renovated- just like the photos. The property has a communal fire pit for s’more’s, ping pong, corn hole. We did not use the bus service, but drove to Bar Harbor, Acadia, etc. Great for hiking, biking, kayaking. Beautiful part of Maine. Would definitely stay here again.

Acadia Fun

The cabin was exactly as described. Spotless and perfect for our family of 4. We especially enjoyed all of the extras the owner provided. From hand soap, laundry detergent, games, and plenty towels. The outdoor areas were perfect and we used them every night! Planning our next trip here now!
