  This home is wonderful for a large family, or many couples to spend their time in Maine. Our stay was wonderful, from the comfortable bedrooms to the spacious kitchen and living areas, it suited our every need. The views from the house and grounds were serene and calming. Access to Mt. Desert Island was easy. The owner, Jon was very professional with every call or email that was made, and answered our questions quickly and precisely. If you want a fabulous time to spend In Maine with your loved ones this is the place to be, you will not be disappointed.

  We were pleased to find a location that would comfortably sleep four couples. The house is spacious and the kitchen well-equipped. We loved the back deck and the pool table. All in all, it's a fantastic get-away location, the views are spectacular, and the ambiance tranquil after a day spent exploring Acadia, Mt Desert Island, and Bar Harbor. All eight of us want to thank you for making your home available and for being so easy to work with. It's the first time I've used VRBO and it won't be the last. I LOVE MAINE!!!

  This beautiful house is located in the woods of Maine, nestled by a bubbling river. The rooms had everything I needed--including some spices for cooking the lobster! The HUGE sunroom is great for reading, watching the boats sail by, or playing pool on the full-sized pool table! Sitting on the deck as the sun set was amazing! We will definitely come back to this one.

  WOW! A very large home with fantastic water views. Great value for waterfront in the area, and very close to Acadia. My kids loved the pool table, and my wife loved the scenery. Clean home with high quality interior made it a plus and kitchen was a cook's delight. I definitely look forward to returning. It was the perfect peaceful no-hassle vacation.

  House is very nice in quiet, private location. Owner was very friendly and helpful. The home was clean with a well stocked kitchen and all appliances worked properly. Large areas to spread out in various parts of the home. We had an infant in our group and all accessories, toys, etc. were avaialable for use. I would definitely recommend this home to other large groups.

  This rental was great for our Maine vacation. As advertised, it is conveniently located near Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. We found all amenities and description provided in the listing to be accurately reported. Although there were 8 people in our group, we were very pleased with the amount of living space available inside the house where we could spend time together dining and doing other group activities or spreading out for individual space. Outside the home was spacious with plenty of deck space and convenient access to waterfront where we enjoyed kayaking and observing the local wildlife. We would highly recommend this rental to anyone planning a vacation in the Downeast Maine region.

  A large beautiful home that provided such enjoyable memoies for our family. An excellent spot for taking in ALL the area offers. The peace and quite of the Union River with its wildlife (eagles, seals and loons), but being close to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The rental rates are even less than those on Mt. Desert Island.

  Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

  We had an absolutely wonderful time! Your lovely home was perfect—roomy and very comfortable, in the loveliest setting we could have ever hoped for. We have traveled to many places in the past several years to catch up on our lives and children (and now grandchildren), and I think this our favorite. The kitchen was very well supplied for preparing dinner together, which is an important part of our get-togethers, and the deck was a wonderful place to gather. The house was in a perfect location for exploring Acadia and enjoying the charming towns in the area.

  My family and I stayed here recently and thoroughly enjoyed both the house and location. If you are looking for a peaceful setting with lots of living space, this house delivers. The views of the river are gorgeous. Ellsworth is a charming little town, and we found this rental to be much cheaper than what is available in the Bar Harbor area. Owners are very friendly.

  My husband and I stayed at this home last July and it was wonderful. The windows in the picture overlook a bluff above the river. Boats cruise slowly by and a comfortable bench is just waiting for an occupant with a good book. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay.
