What a wonderful place at 2 minutes from the beautiful Acadia Ntl park and close to everything in a quiet environment. Miss Ray has set-up all the info needed to prepare and achieve a perfect gateway to vacations! Bar Harbor is one of the nicest places in USA that has kept his authenticity…

Our time at Sandcliff was perfect! We ate at our favorite restaurant (Mache Bistro-135 Cottage Street) and enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were thoughtful and comfortable. My husband and I felt right at home and anything that we needed was right at our fingertips. The house was tasteful and immaculate. We look forward to returning as soon as possible. We highly recommend this house.

Two couples stayed here to enjoy a week of October in Maine. We loved the home! It was certainly very clean, well stocked with very comfortable beds. It was attractively decorated. My sister-in-law and I decided we could live here year round very happily without bringing anything but our clothes from home. We hiked all day and then came back to this wonderful home. I would certainly recommend this home to anyone looking to stay in this area of Maine.

Home overlooks the water with spectacular sunrises. Wrap around porches provide beautiful views. 1st floor bedroom perfect for teenagers. Location is peaceful- close to Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Just as promised...Open, airy, light, spacious, comfortable. Wrap around deck & master bdrm deck are baby safe and offer sea views, the kitchen is well equipped (2 lobster pots), many wonderful blueberries bushes, a great place for walks away from Bar Harbor crowds, smallest bdrm has a beautiful sunrise view, nice quiet nights. Recommendations for dining were spot on! We were very pleased.

Well maintained, clean, comforable property. We especially liked the gated wrap around deck with ocean views. Perfect spot for our dog. There were blueberry bushes in the back of the house, our children picked berries to have for breakfast everyday. Great spacious kitchen. Comfortable bedrooms. Great location for enjoying Acadia Park but away from the hustle-bustle of Bar Harbor. Highly recommend this house.

Loved the house. Internet worked great. Porch was fantastic for enoying the outdoors with the dog. Weather was fantastic. House is maybe 5 minutes from Acadia and 10 minutes from dowtown Bar Harbor. Absolutely perfect location. Quiet and well-equiped. We loved it up there! Hopefully, we'll be back!

Great place to stay! Was close to everything, with tons of information at the house to help navigate Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. View is awesome!

Where and how do we access this site? We are interested in a Bar Harbor rental home. Thank you. Sue Wilds

Owner response:This is a great question, as some of us are novices at surfing the web. If you go to any of the vacation rental sites like Cyberrentals, VRBO, Great Rentals, and click on Bar Harbor, go to three bedroons or more. You will see this site listed as Beautiful ocean view home, modern, overlooking Frenchman's Bay. The name of the home is Sandcliff. I know I have challenges myself.I hope this helps you in your search for a lovely vacation home. Good luck. Bonnie Ray
