-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: Queen Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Full Bed | Bedroom 4: Full Bed

Approach the entrance to this beautiful home and admire the large well-kept yard and landscaping. You're sure to spend quality time on the immense front porch, where you'll enjoy morning cups of coffee, evening cocktails, and cookouts over the first-class gas grill.

After your travels, settle down in the living area on a plush couch and turn on the gas fireplace to get cozy. Turn on the large flat-screen cable TV and gather together for a cozy evening at home!

As dinnertime approaches, make your way into the kitchen which comes fully equipped with stainless steel appliances. While the steaks are sizzling on the gas grill, pull up a chair to the breakfast bar to prepare a few sides. Savor dinner with the group around the impressive dining room table.

As your eyes begin to grow heavy, retreat to the primary bedroom outfitted with a welcoming queen bed, large flat-screen cable TV and a completely tiled en-suite bathroom. When the others are ready, they can climb under the covers of the additional queen and 2 full beds.

-- THE LOCATION --

Outdoor enthusiasts will revel in the endless adventure just steps from the property. Explore Acadia National Park which offers 47,000 acres of natural beauty as well as hiking and biking trails, spend a day at Echo Lake Beach or venture down to Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse nestled on sea cliffs with ideal photography vantage points.

Explore downtown Southwest Harbor, where you'll find a plethora of unique and specialty shops. Be sure to try Maine's famous cuisine at local favorites, including Red Sky Restaurant, Sips or Thurston's Lobster Pound.

Perfect quietside stay!
Our family of 5 had a lovely stay at Hidden Elm! The property is lovely, was very clean, lots of nice amenities (cookware, soaps, dishwasher detergent, laundry soap, comfy beds, sheets, and towels, etc.). LOVED the location--we enjoyed walking into SW Harbor, and easy driving into Acadia, Bar Harbor, Mount Desert, etc. The primary bedroom is set apart from the other 3 bedrooms which worked for us, and our two older children stayed upstairs. The baby stayed in the sitting room near the primary bedroom. Libby was a wonderful host! The steps are steep and both bathrooms are on the main level, but it all worked out great for our group. Would definitely stay at this house again!!

Best ever!
This was the most well equipped vacation rental we've ever stayed at. We brought a cooking pot and spices from home as we have found in the past that everything was not provided. Not the case here. We could have saved the room. The home was beautiful, the master bedroom and bathroom luxurious, and the village quaint. I would recommend this home without reservation.
