Wonderful house in a beautiful location, just a short distance from both downtown Bar Harbor and the Acadia National Park Visitors' Center. I would highly recommend this to anyone planning to visit the Bar Harbor area. Just the spot to unwind after a day of hiking, biking, kayaking or just wandering around town.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

A beautiful home in harmony with its wooded, quiet surroundings. It is a rare opportunity to stay in a home which has so much artistic detail, so beautifully assembled. The location and the home are truly a retreat. We loved being here and are already thinking about when we can return.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, age 55+.

We just spent a delightful week at Artist's Haven! Lovely house, interesting and beautiful furnishings in a very quiet area. Easy to get to all of Acadia Nat'l Park's attractions and the wonderful restaurants on both sides of the island (try the nearby Town Hill Bistro). Close to Town Hill Market: good take-out sandwiches and good wine selection.. Great place to vacation!Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+.
