This was a great house. Very well-stocked, comfortable, room for our family and close to Acadia and downtown Bar Harbor. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had (suggestions on what to see, where to eat, etc). We had a great time exploring Acadia - hiking, biking - and shopping and eating in Bar Harbor. We hope to be back some day!

Cozy little place tucked away in the woods but a short 10-15 minute drive from pretty much anything. The place was clean and had everything we could ask for, the owners were very responsive and willing to work with us when our trip situation changed.

Perfect Acadia base camp

The central location made getting to any sections of the park on MDI a breeze. Being set back into the woods while also close enough to walk to a playground and a few other little amenities was a nice bonus for our young family! Add in the well-equipped kitchen and overall cozy property and I can't imagine a better place to stay for our daughters' first National Park experience!

House was beautiful! House had everything we needed and more! Very clean and up to date! Owners were great to deal with. We saw that there was only an AC in the primary bedroom so we took along small fans, which worked great! Would love to stay there again!
