This house is spacious, comfortable and functional. We had everything in the kitchen to cook our meals when needed. Showers were big and water pressure was good. Beds were very comfortable. We all had good recuperating sleep after all day hiking. The house is close to Acadia. It took us no more than 25 min to any hiking trail we chose. Food options were much better quality and prices were lower than in Bar Harbor. I highly recommend this house and would come back when visiting the area.

This is a spacious, clean, comfortable home with everything needed to cook family meals. The furnishings allow for lounging in front of the tv and eating together around the kitchen table. The bedrooms are large and the beds were very comfortable. The laundry facilities are new models. The location is quiet and at the end of a road. It's very convenient to drive to Acadia for day trips. The owner is very responsive - we just needed paper towels which were brought promptly. This home was perfect for our group of 4 adults, I've stayed in over 30 home rentals and this one was one of the best, I would definitely stay again!

Great Stay

Very clean. Everything was just as we expected. Close to a wonderful lobster takeout. When I damaged a screen on the sliding glass door, he replaced it the next day and covered the cost. Everything worked. Great location. Tom has a great house and location. We will say here again on our next trip to Maine.

Listing was accurate.

Everything was exactly as stated. Enjoyed the location, away from the busy Bar Harbor but close enough to enjoy Acadia. Highly recommend the Bar Harbor Lobster Pound. Best food for price we had the whole trip.

Would stay there again

Clean, well-appointed house with no surprises located 15 minutes from Bar Harbor and the main part of Acardia. Lobster stand and coffee shop next door, plus good hikes in the less-visited parts of the park. Great if you don't want to be in the middle of the things but close by.

Great little out of the way place

Nice house. Plenty of room. A bit tricky finding the turnoff for the first day but really nice. Short distance from town and Acadia. Owners were very responsive to inquiries.

Very enjoyable stay

The property is exactly as advertised. Off the main roads, quiet, private, well kept, VERY clean. We cooked all meals there and found the kitchen supplies more than adequate. Plenty of room to spread out (meals, reading, games, puzzles, etc.). Owners were adjacent to the rental property. We talked to Rita, pleasant lady. Highly recommend!

The perfect Mt Desert Island getaway

The place was WAY bigger than we expected, super comfortable, lots of spaces for hanging, and beautiful outdoor space as well. We were told the kitchen had everything we needed - and they weren't kidding! We were able to cook every night and even make a birthday cake and some muffins without having to get extra tins. And it's so close to the park, it made hiking trips so easy. Super great!

Acaida

The house is located conveniently to Bar Harbor and ACADIA NP also within easy walking distance to one of the best lobster shacks on the island. Nice enclosed porch. Do be aware the upstairs shower is a tight fit.

Gem in the woods

This is probably my favorite vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in. This little cottage was perfect for my little family and my Husbands parents. It was well stocked and clean. The location is private but also within walking distance of a great restaurant. There were games and camping chairs to sit outside, and a grill on the deck. I would definitely recommend it to any family up to 6 people. There were lots of towels and a washer and dryer which was amazing for this point in our trip. I’ll definitely be booking with them again next year.

We loved this place. It was immaculate and very well supplied with everything needed. It feels like it is isolated even though everything we wanted to was no more than 15 to 25 min away. We found 3 or 4 great food places within 10 min. Tom was very response to a couple of small issues we had while there.
