About this property

3 bedroom, 2 bath modified cape style home tucked away in a protected, wooded, rural setting in Bar Harbor surrounded by blueberries, pines, hardwoods, and apple trees. First floor has a great room including a large kitchen and 10 foot oak dining table well equipped for creating gourmet meals or a 'shore dinner' for a crowd. Living room has a large screen TV with surround sound, ROKU, and a large selection of movies. The office downstairs also serves as a sleeping space with a queen sized bed and no closet. The first floor has a full bathroom with a shower, a utility room/pantry and a 2 car attached, heated garage. Second floor has a master bedroom with a king sized bed and a large mirrored closet, 2 additional bedrooms, each with a queen bed, full bathroom with tub and shower, and upstairs washer and dryer closet. It is fully furnished, well appointed and is dog friendly. The house is walking distance to a 3.5 mile hiking trail known as the Acadian Woods Trail and a little known trail owned by the town of Bar Harbor that meanders along the Mill Brook, both breathtakingly beautiful and dog friendly. There's a well located fire pit in the woods on the side yard for evening s'mores and storytelling. Smack-dab in the middle of Mount Desert Island, Heartwood Home has easy access to all the desirable activities Acadia National Park and the surrounding communities have to offer including hiking and biking trails, sand beach, clear freshwater lakes for kayaking boating and swimming, horse carriage rides, whale watching, boat rides and site seeing tours. We are 10 minutes to Bar Harbor, 5 minutes to at least 2 park entrances, 12 minutes to Northeast Harbor, 15 minutes to Southwest Harbor and 15 minutes to Sand Beach.

Enjoyable family retreat

Stayed with 4 adults and 2 children (7). Lots of good stuff is 10 minutes away (Bar Harbor, Hulls Cove VC, trails, lakes). House is well stocked and the open layout worked well for our group. Lots of great DVDs and games in the house. Small yard and lots of mosquitos.

Heartwood Home is in Our Hearts

This property is in a really good location. We could easily access Acadia NP and downtown Bar Harbor easily and get away from crowds when we wanted. Plenty of room to spread out and plenty of beds for sleeping. Not mentioned on the listing, but severely appreciated was the automatic ice maker in the freezer. We had great communication with the property manager the entire time. We easily cooked in the wee appointed kitchen. Fluffy towels were also appreciated after a long day of hiking. We simply loved the house!

A week in the woods

This is an excellent place for those planning a family vacation on Mount Desert Island. It's well located for daily trips to Acadia Park. It is also a well-equipped home with four bedrooms. We were especially pleased by the prompt response of the home manager to our little toilet problem.

About the host

Hosted by Leslie Barroso

We raised our 2 kids in this home and have now relocated for work. We have loved our home and our community on Mount Desert Island and are excited to share our serene Bar Harbor oasis, far from the cruise ship crowds, hotel and B & B traffic but still in close proximity to all the action the island provides.

Why they chose this property

Heartwood Home was designed, built and furnished by us to hold our family close. The great room allows the cook to be with family members and guests while they're watching TV, doing puzzles and games at the large dining table or listening to music. The surrounding neighborhood is conducive to walks on a low traffic road, safe for children and pets. There are bike riding and hiking areas for the whole family, and lots of play space for children.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits of staying at Heartwood Home are total comfort without the summer crowds of an in-town location. We are located in the center of Mount Desert Island giving occupants the convenience of an easy commute to all the towns, restaurants and sites on the island.
