Very cute and comfortable place to stay and in an excellent location. It had everything we needed and was so charming and well decorated. I would stay here again.
The house was clean and we comfortably fit four but could have fit double that. The location was great for easy access to Bar Harbor and the national park. Instructions were reasonable and easy to follow. I would stay again if I was in the area.

Hi Guys,
Your were here for perfect weather and foliage; I am glad the house worked for your group! Come back anytime...:)
Our stay at the farmhouse was just what we needed for 4 women. It was a great location from Bar Harbor and Acadia park. There was a little difficulty getting the code to work for entry but you just had to wait a minute for it to work. We loved the charm of the old farmhouse. Would definitely stay there again.

Hi Pamela,
Thanks for your review and fyi: I changed the batteries in the code box and we are up and running again! Sorry about that, but please come and stay again any time!

What a fun farm house in a perfect location to access the park! The kitchen was nothing short of amazing with everything you need to cook. Flatware, plates, pots, baking sheets, pans, beautiful dishes and plenty of room! The bedrooms are lovely and comfortable and there is a fantastic room for children on the third floor with 4 beds. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. We loved it!

Hi Guys, thanks so much! I am glad you had a great stay and know you are welcome back anytime!
We had an awesome stay at this property. Tracey was super responsive and helpful, we had plenty of space, the kitchen was beautiful, all around a fantastic spot. We will definitely be back!
We loved our stay. The house location was perfect for exploring Acadia- a short drive to Cadillac Summit, Jordan Pond, and Bar Harbor. And, the house is well stocked for cooking, the bedrooms were great (my kids loved the 3rd floor). The tree swing outside was an added bonus. If anything, the pictures undersell the house. We’d definitely stay again.

Thanks Elizabeth! Please come back any time; the third floor bunk room and the swing will be waiting!
Wonderful home! Everything is comfortable and well-appointed. The kitchen is spacious and beautiful. Showers were updated and were the most unique ones that we have ever seen. The property is located conveniently to attractions in Acadia, including Cadillac Mountain. Our family had a short walk to Acadia from the property. The host was kind, warm, and friendly with excellent tips for an enjoyable experience.
Great place! We thoroughly enjoyed the chef's kitchen and the home is cozy and comfortable. We used it as a home base for exploring Acadia and Bar Harbor. Highly recommended.Tracey communicated timely and provided great information about local activities.
Great location away from the crowds of Bar Harbor, and the old farmhouse creates a warm, welcoming place to come back to after a day of activity in Acadia.
Lovely house that my family really enjoyed for a 3 night stay in Acadia. Was big enough for all of us with comfortable beds and a huge well stocked kitchen. It's a bit away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor which is nice. And excellent place to stay
The house is lovely and has everything we needed. Great location to accessing the Acadia National Park! And a lovely trail (Giant Slide) near the property if people didn’t want to get in the car but wanted a hike!
Great location and a perfect house for our group. The host was quick to respond and provided lots of local information and recommendations! Beautiful kitchen for cooking in and plenty of space to relax.
