The house is really wonderful. It's not so far out that it's hard to go pick up groceries, but just far enough to be really quiet. We really appreciated all the room in the house - there was space for everyone and we were never on top of each other. It had everything we needed and more. We picked up driftwood and enjoyed a fire and watched the moon rise every night. Wifi was great - never had an issue. Highly recommend!

Beautiful, tranquil home away from home in Maine

We visited this unique and wonderful home and property with our three college age kids. It was perfect for relaxation, playing games, cooking dinner and taking a break from busy days exploring.The hosts are genuinely interesting and caring people. The house is decorated beautifully with obvious love and talent. We received lots of great advice on things to do and places to eat as well.We stay in VRBO’s at least once a month and this is definitely top of our list! Highly recommend and hope that we can come back someday.

Great family stay!

We had 3 generations staying at the house for a family wedding and it was the perfect size/space for us to enjoy time together in between events. There are more stairs than we anticipated or noticed in the listing, so we had to be mindful of that with our grandfather's mobility, but we made it work! Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful retreat, the ocean and Acadia in your backyard!

We loved our stay and found this to be perfect for exploring Acadia and surrounding areas. The property was even nicer than described, with beautiful art everywhere and nicely done fixtures and amenities. Highly recommend coffee on the back deck to watch the tide come in and the lobster boats to go out!

Best vacation spot ever!

This is my second time staying here this time with my side of the family. I grow more and more in love with Maine every time we visit and this property helps that immensly. The hosts are amazingly nice and have made the inside as beautiful as outside. It was a pleasure to be able to enjoy it so much again this year. Highly recommended for families that love the coastline.

Amazing location with stunning view.

To truly be a great place they need to update the living room furniture and decrease the clutter in the home. It feels a bit to personal to be a rental in our opinion.

Love Lamoine

This was a great location for us. It was the quietest place we have ever stayed & it was just what we needed. The weather was not stellar but we made the best of it. Bar Harbor & Acadia were busy - as we were warned - but if you prefer a less crowded environment- there are plenty of options. The home was well supplied with everything one could need. The owner was easy to reach & made sure all was well with us. We would stay again if we come back.

Bar Harbor view

The 6 of us seniors stayed here for 3 nights. We picked for location and we were not disappointed. Well equipped kitchen. 3 bathrooms was nice. Great views. Plenty of seating in mid-century furniture, not the most comfortable. We did have cable outage 2 nights.

A Beautiful Retreat

This is a beautiful property in a stunning natural setting. Outstanding views of the harbor. The owners were great, keeping us informed, and making sure that all went smoothly. The photos in the description are great, but in real-life it is even better. If you are looking for a retreat on the Maine Coast this is the place. Far enough to have privacy, but close enough to get to attractions in the area, such as Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. This is not just for Summer time. We were there at the end of December, and it was still great. Highly recommended at any Season!

Peaceful

We did a lot of chasing to Bar Harbor on this trip, but all said if we were to do it again, we would hang out at our home base, Little Edessa. The neighborhood is quiet, the setting is amazing. Had we been able to move this entire place closer to Bar Harbor, it would have been ideal. Do yourselves a favor and come here, but give yourselves planty of time to enjoy it all. The kitchen is fully furnished, the coffee is provided, the time will go much too quickly. Just lean into the beautiful setting, inside and out. The views are AMAZING! And the first thing we noticed when we walked into the house was a cruise ship. Amazing.

traveler beware

1. too many mosquitoes, can't enjoy the backyard. repellent doesn't help. 2. make sure you buy damage insurance. owner setup damaged home goods (like windows blinds, etc). once you touch it, it broke. you will be charged for a damage fee. 3. lack of communication. check in information was not sent until the date I got there. emailed owner, never response. 4. Room was not cleaned. sand and dust, everywhere. no bathroom towel.

This was a lovely eclectic property with very peaceful views. Reasonable distance from Acadia so that we still could get up early to beat the crowds. The kitchen was fully stocked with all of the things that we needed to prepare our own meals, and the place was clean and beds were comfortable. Our only hiccup was in the form of some incredibly hot days that made some evenings rather warm inside the unit that the cooling systems took a bit of time to overcome as we could not adjust. The hosts remedied once we reached out! Would stay here again!

Awesome oceanfront property

We had a fantastic stay at Little Edessa. The house was clean and fully stocked. The yard was amazing. The kids loved playing on the play set while looking out over the ocean. The home is right next to Lamoine beach, so we felt like we had our own private park. You can drive into Acadia or park in Trenton and catch the Island Explorer bus. We had a great time and would definitely stay here again.

Fun Family Vacation

Our family had a great week in the Acadia area. We chose this property for many reasons: it's listed as ocean front, there's a sizable yard area with a playset for the children and a fire pit, and the house had enough bedrooms and bathrooms for our family. We were not disappointed! Our granddaughters enjoyed the playset, the yard games, roasting marshmallows in the fire pit, and swimming and playing in the sand at Lamoine Beach, a 10 minute walk from the house. The adults enjoyed kayaking in the bay as well as the various wildlife seen in the bay, entertaining friends for dinner, sitting around the fire pit catching up, the quiet neighborhood, and sleeping well after a full day of activity. This property is a short drive to Ellsworth for shopping and eating out; slightly longer but manageable to Acadia National Park as well as Schoodic Peninsula. This was our first time staying here, and we will definitely check to see if it's available the next time we come to the area.
