Evergreen House offers the best of all worlds: A wonderful, modern home in a beautiful, private setting situated between Acadia and the picturesque towns/locales of Castine, Deer Isle, and Stonington. But what made my vacation especially memorable was the gracious manner in which owners Jim and Judy welcomed me to Evergreen. They are great hosts and are willing (if asked) to share their knowledge of the area based on one's interests. Evergreen gives a vacationer R & R or the opportunity to pursue a variety of activities. I plan to return this spring.

Evergreen House was the perfect spot for our Maine vacation. After busy days in Acadia National Park, Blue Hill, Deer Isle and Stonington, we came back to our big house to rest and relax. It was our first family vacation wigh all three generations under the same roof for a week and it worked beautifully! We'll recommend Evergreen House to others. We also enjoyed Nervous Nellie's with delicious jams and whimsical sculptures. Westcott Forge was delicious and relaxing for the older generation and the Fishnet was great for those who wanted take-outs. A happy vacation for all!

Thank you for sharing your peaceful house with us. We really enjoyed the privacy and location close to Acadia. We feel we have entered a different world where time is slower and the past is the present. Very different from the hustle and bustle of Buffalo. We really enjoyed some scenic hikes and bike rides. Sorry to be leaving.

We have had a wonderful stay in Maine. Evergreen House as wonderful and in such a peaceful, quiet, and private setting. We spent the majority of our time hiking, biking, canoeing, and exploring....Our favorite activity was biking the carriage trails in Acadia. The horse drawn wagon ride was also a favorite. We loved Bar Harbor also! Great food places we discovered included the Downeast Deli, the Quarter Deck, Pat's Pizza, and for Pop-overs, the Jordan Pond House. We stayed busy every day and probably did not get to enjoy Evergreen House to its fullest extent but we did enjoy the time we were here!

We thought the house was wonderful and it is in a great location for either relaxing quickly - or - for exploring the area, of which there is much to explore. We only wish we had more time. It was also great to meet the owners who we thought were lovely helpful, friendly people, and we will tell everybody we know how great it is here. Hopefully, one day we will return.

Love the house. We enjoyed two lobster dinners we cooked ourselves - The best seafood ever! We enjoyed relaxing in the quiet and beauty of the surrounding area. Did a lot of antiquing and eating.

We just returned from our week long stay at Mountainside. MOUNTAINSIDE: We were very pleased with this cozy studio that had everything we needed to be comfortable. Blue Hill is a lovely bayside town with lots of outdoor activites both on and off the water. Also a beautiful library with wifi for a rainy day. Thanks Judy and Jim for a very pleasant week.
