The house is in a wonderful location, close to Long Pond for a quick swim, paddle or beach hang. We were able to make regular trips all over MDI because the house is centrally located and accessible to many points on the island. We enjoyed using the house as a jumping off point to many hikes in Acadia. We had a great picnic lunch and window shopping in Bar Harbor. We had good coffee in Southwest Harbor. We ate Lobster rolls and enjoyed sunset close to the house. Our host was responsive to our needs and communicative throughout our time. The house was clean and had a fenced in backyard so our dog could be outside.The kitchen could use a few more essentials: complete sets of measuring cups and spoons, instructions on how to use the cooktop. It would be great if the yard can be mowed so the outdoor space can be a place to hangout.We had a very special time visiting MDI and hope to be back soon!
