About this property

Large MDI house w/pool perfect for groups+families

My aim was to create different spaces that would meet all the moods that may take you on a vacation. On the first floor you will find a large living space with cozy couch and a 55” smart tv, for those evenings where the whole family wants to chill out and watch movies. There is also a quieter reading area at the end of the living space with a comfy chaise and chair, perfect for getting lost in a good book but close enough to still feel involved. The ground floor has a large kitchen with all the essentials you could need to make this house feel like your home. The dining area has a large round table ideal for those evening feasts. There's also a deck off the kitchen/dining area for eating al fresco. You will also find two large queen bedrooms on this level, tucked away from the main heart of the house for a quiet night’s sleep.

Upstairs you will find three bedrooms and a bathroom. The first is a large master bedroom with a king bed, a second king bedroom and the third is a bunk room with a twin bed and twin over a full bunk bed. All these bedrooms have large, built-in closets.

The lower level has a full bathroom and additional sleeping space. The game room also has a foosball table, dart board, TV with games consoles and a bar area with a built-in fridge, offering a great space for kids and adults to unwind together.

Nice part of Mt Desert Island

This is tucked away in Tremont and was very private. Definitely a great place to stay if you want to spend time on the “Quiet side” of the island which I recommend highly.

Great family place for 15 people. (8 adults and 7 kids). Everyone loved the pool and the fire pit. We had some minor plumbing problems that were resolved in very short order (thanks Jeff). The window AC units were great as we had some 90 degree days. Only one bedroom did not have AC which was a bit uncomfortable for one or two nights. The room layouts and ability to spread out was nice for everyone. Several minor points that could help improve the visits for others:1. The deck could use a good power washing.2. The sliding door lock would not lock (it didn’t really bother us)3. We could have used more deck and fire pit seats. Ideally one large kitchen/dining table would have helped us.4. More seating around the pool would help.5. Better bar lighting would have been nice.I am offering these suggestions not to be critical, but just to let you know some potential improvements. We would definitely like to make a return visit to this “quiet side” dwelling. Overall our visit was fun with many great family memories formed.Thanks and best wishes to Jeff.

Positives Outweighed Negatives

Property is setback from the road, is very private, and landscape presents itself well. The house rooms (bedrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen) were configured very nice for a group of 16. Kitchen was a little small. House maintenance was adequate, but not great. Biggest issue is having no air conditioning on several days that were hot. We purchased 2 window air conditions and were comfortable after that. House had 2-1/2 bathrooms, and really needed another full bathroom. Basement playroom required a dehumidifier that was emptied daily. In spite of the negative issues, the house met our needs, so I would give the property about 3-1/2 stars out of 5.

Great Acadia retreat!

This house served as a great "home base" for our family of ten (ages 4 to 75) as we enjoyed all Acadia had to offer. The house was rustic but spacious with lots of space to sleep, gather or find some solitude to read a book. Lots of wildlife, including deer in the backyard and frogs in the pool! 😳. The yard and pool area were a little overgrown and could have used a little more upkeep, but the kids swam for hours even though it was chilly.

Peaceful, quiet vacation location

On Mount Desert Island- about 25-30min drive to Bar Habor/ Acadia NP. Downstairs game room great for kids. Wifi in the house is great, but not as great in surrounding area. Super quiet and peaceful street, easy to lose track of time. House is spacious and well built/kept. Host responsive and kind.

Wonderful getaway

We celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary by taking them to Maine. This house suited our needs perfectly. It was clean and just as pictured on the website. The layout of the house made it very roomy for 15 people. The kids enjoyed the pool and the basketball court as well as the Wii. There was a small leak in the kitchen sink and the owner responded immediately and it was fixed the next day. There is no air conditioning in the house, which wasn’t really an issue except the upstairs bedrooms were a little bit hot and not all of the windows had screens in them to be able to open them. We would definitely rent this house again!

Great House for a Group

Our group of 4 adults and 10 teenagers had an amazing time at the house and exploring Mt. Desert Island. We were there during a heat wave so the pool was our saving grace at the end of hot afternoons in Acadia. The teens loved that there was a basketball net and used it every day of our stay. The house was big enough that we could spread out and no one felt like we were on top of one another but it was still very homey. The host was helpful: very responsive to messages and understanding when a dish broke in the kitchen.

Acadia family trip

Lovely home, comfortable beds, clean swimming pool (cold in June as you would expect - but kids still loved it !). Backyard shuffleboard- very fun! Basketball halfcourt - but balls were flat - an accessible ball pump would be great. The kids enjoyed the wii game system too! The home could use more pillows and more comfortable pillows, dishwasher soap, simple things for the kitchen- cooking oil or cooking spray, conditioner in the bathroom, there’s a basement-like smell in the basement. Very peaceful location close to Acadia. Suited our needs very well, but for the price a few simple amenities go along way in comfort. Thank you for sharing your peaceful home!

Great Experience

We were very happy with our stay. The pictures in the listing actually don't do it justice. The house is large while still feeling like a home. The condition of the house was generally excellent. We were disappointed that the pool wasn't open, but it being June in Maine, we understand why. The lot feels very secluded - so much so that we forgot there were other neighbors until we were politely reminded. Communication with the owner was easy and they were highly responsive.

Nice place!

Big and beautiful! Very comfortable. Had a great time with family. Quiet spot, quiet road. A little mix up in the beginning about gas for the gas stove...sorted out quickly. Beautiful pool. Kitchen pretty well stocked accept knives. The kitchen stove could work much better. We cooked for a bunch of us and if you have all burners going it does not heat anything well. And if you cook...it would be nice to have better windows to open with screens in them. However, everything else was wonderful and we had a great time. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Gorgeous Place w/ a Pool

Our family’s stay here in late August-Labor Day was excellent - the property is as advertised and in the photos. The owner is great - friendly, responsive, accommodating and hospitable. The place is in nature, with a short drive to town(s) and pretty much everywhere on the island is easily accessible (including ponds/lakes/trails/coast). We’d definitely come back!

About the host

Hosted by Jeff

Host profile image
Hey, I'm Jeff, and I was born in Ohio and and have lived in New York, Boston, Washington, DC, San Francisco and Maine. Extensive travel in India and SE Asia with several visits to Europe, Japan and South America.

In addition to travel, I love to cook and generally go out of my way to treat every meal as if it's my last on earth. I owned a top restaurant in Manhattan for years, then moved to DC to head up food and nutrition for the public school system. In Brooklyn, I founded Genuine Foods, a food service management company that serves high-quality, scratch-made meals in schools, business cafeterias, and universities. Last year, we served over 7,000 meals/day and sourced locally as much as possible. All just to say ... I've been fortunate to develop a deep understanding of and appreciation for New York's people, food, agriculture, and artisans. I'm happy to be welcoming guests to a city I know and love, and even happier to offer them a well-stocked kitchen. To me, ideal accommodations combine the comfort and personality of a home with the luxury amenities you'd find in a hotel. I operated on that philosophy when designing my rental unit, and I look forward to offering guests a true haven in one of the most amazing cities in the world.

Why they chose this property

The area of Seal Cove is one of the many gorgeous treasures you will find tucked away off the beaten path on Mount Desert Island. Locals refer to this part of the island as the “quiet side," offering a much more tranquil stay. The area is in the southwest corner of Mount Desert Island near the more well-known Bass Harbor. A visit to the Lighthouse is a must, where you can experience a sunset like no other. Other well-known areas of the island are easily accessible. You can be at the famous Carriage Trails and Mount Cadillac within 20 minutes and over to the famous Bar Harbor in less than 30.

What makes this property unique

Located in Seal Cove, this hidden getaway is ideal for families wanting a slice of the Maine life. The in-ground pool will provide hours of fun for the whole family and with major hiking trails just around the corner, Long Pond less than 5 mins drive and the lovely Southwest Harbor within 15 mins, this house is perfect for those seeking a quiet getaway that still has all the bustling parts of the island within easy reach.
