The home is very spacious with lots of room for our family gathering. We loved the location next to the lake with kayaks and close to Acadia National Park. The hot tub was amazing. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you could need for cooking.

Outstanding, well-carsd for home that was perfect for our family of 9! Used the hot tub, kayaks and canoe's, explored the coastline, played games in the gameroom, and definitely used the deck areas!

Great location and view!

Gorgeous views of the cove! Many eagles to see. Only down side is kayaking is at the mercy of tides. Loved the property, amenities, and area.

We had a great stay. Thank you for allowing us to rent your place. The weather was perfect. We had plenty of space and the game room downstairs was great. The only change I would suggest is removing the photo and description of the dock leading out to the water. There is no dock/platform any longer and getting the boats out when the tide is receding is a bit of a challenge without a dock to walk on. Other than that everything was perfect and we had a great time. Thank you.

We had a great time and this wonderful property. Stan was very responsive and helpful. The house is beautiful and the location and view on the water can’t be beat. We had 12 and had plenty of room to not be on top of each other. The kayaks were a great bonus.

This place was perfect. Our ages ranged from 10 yo to 78 yo and it was perfect for all of us. The house is stocked with everything one would need, plus so many amenities that just add to the activities available. The biggest hits for us were the kayaks and the hot tub! This was our second time staying and Stan and Theresa are the perfect hosts! You can't go wrong staying here.

This is our 5th family (8-10 total) vacation and this was the best. House was awesome with activities for everyone in our group. The furniture was very comfortable with plenty of options. The kitchen was equipped with more than normal accessories and supplies. Beds were comfortable with multiple king size beds. Numerous outside activities for all ages. Location was perfect for Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Nice selection of restaurants and great lobster. If you are coming to Maine give this location a try!

Great family vacation home

Nice, large home perfect for our family consisting of six adults and five young men ages 14-20. Nicely furnished and kitchen equipped with everything we needed, including all the equipment we needed for our lobster dinner. Another bathroom would have been nice for the 11 of us, but we managed. We didn’t get to use the kayaks much because of the tide situation, which we’re not used to. A lot of wildlife was seen including the eagle whose nest was close to the house. Great, central location away from the crowds. Enjoyed quiet Schoodic Peninsula and the SW Harbor area, Ellsworth, as well as crowded Bar Harbor, Loop Road, Cadillac Mtn.

Roomy, family friendly

Lots of room, very comfortable for a family. Absolutely enchanting to watch the birds as the tide changes. Wonderful outdoor area, but The cable railing on the deck wasn’t safe for our toddler. The cables were loose and spaced very far apart.

Great place to stay with plenty of room

The property is well maintained, clean, and in a beautiful setting. With a large deck, kayaks, fire pit, and indoor games, our group could engage in activities without leaving the property. This property is great for larger groups. Note that there are two full size kitchens and two sets of clothes washers and dryers.

Roomy, Private with great amenities!

This is our second time staying at this property. It is very roomy, private, and clean. It has every amenity for old and young. It is about 30 minutes from Acadia NP, Bar Harbor, and Schoodic Peninsula. It is so nice to end the day of Acadia and Bar Harbor crowds, at this well- stocked private, quiet home. Stan, the owner, is very easy to work with.

Huge Hancock House for Large Groups

This was the perfect property for our family trip. With 12 in our group there was something for everyone (kayaks, hot tub, fire pit, pool table, ping pong, and arcade games), and two kitchens and laundry rooms were very handy. Maine is gorgeous and Acadia National Park is stunning. Get there early to beat the crowds. Take the half hour drive to the Schoodic Peninsula (part of Acadia NP) but away from the crowds. Of course, the fresh lobster and seafood were delicious as expected. Thank you, Stan, for communicating so timely and helping us with several activity decisions.

Did everything we wanted!

Great house, perfect for 4 couples and 1 adult child. Everyone had their own space. The yard is the star: took advantage of the ocean front, kayak/canoes, fire pit, and view from the porch. Internet was great, we had 1 person working from the home's office on zoom meetings. Perfect location, far enough from the busyness of Bar Harbor, but easy to get in when needed. Half way between Schoodic and main Acadia. Downtown Ellsworth is so close for small downtown strolling and eating.
