The views are stunning, the home is so cozy. We had all kinds of weather while we were here. We loved feeling cozy by the fire on cold rainy days or looking out and enjoying the breeze on beautiful days.
Property was beautiful. View was amazing. Beds were comfortable, house well stocked with laundry supplies, shampoos & soaps etc. Only issue was host communication. With company host I sent some specific questions & never got a response. The company check in listed an emergency # & someone answered promptly, but no response to several messages.
The house is located in a quiet waterfront community on MDI and offered a tranquil retreat from peak season daytime trips into Acadia and Bar Harbor. The house and layout are as described and more than accommodating enough for a family of 6. The floating dock was a huge hit for all. Upgrades that the owner may want to consider are upgrading the lighting in all rooms (the living and dining areas were especially lacking), adding ceiling fans to bedrooms (room fans were provided and very helpful), and adding more outdoor furniture to take advantage of the beautiful summer and fall weather. All in all, a nice property in a great location that we would likely consider returning to.

The location is beautiful and scenery is amazing. We loved being greeted (in the dark) but a family of deer.We are two couples in our late 60's on our first trip to Mount Desert Island/Bar Harbor. We had an amazing time.The home itself is spacious and bright and sunny. It's clear is has been a treasured family home for generations.However, the cleanliness was less than acceptable. We notified management of the condition and submitted photos. Management was very friendly and courteous and offered to send a housekeeper over to clean but that would have been an all day job. Additional information for future guests is that the final drive to the home is an uneven dirt road that is not lit. Arriving in daylight is recommended. It's worth the stay for the peace, tranquility and beauty.

We stayed here during the heat wave. No a/c in the house. Emergency line was extremely rude. Kitchen wasn’t very well equipped. Wouldn’t recommend this property, especially for the price.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 July 2026
These guests admitted to not reading the listing where it states in 4 different spots that there is no A/C in this home. They said on the phone they were going to leave and wanted a Full Refund. When we declined due to the Home matching what is in the Listing the guest yelled that they would leave us a negative review and hung up the phone.
