About the host
Hosted by Peter Collier
I'm from the area and work as a full time Realtor in Bar Harbor - I love making a difference for the community and sharing the magic of Mount Desert Island with the world!
Why they chose this property
Central to the whole island, the location is just so convenient for any adventure you may wish to partake in on a given day. The serene views to Ripples Pond sealed the deal, and as dog lovers we greatly appreciated the sunny fenced in backyard :)
What makes this property unique
Tranquility is the best word to describe this special property thanks to its views over Ripples Pond and proximity to some of my personal favorite locations on the island: Beech Hill Mountain and Long Pond. The pet friendly vibes and spare Cabin help it feel private yet communal in nature... just perfect for sharing with visitors and guests.
