About this property

Beautiful Artistic Home Ideal for Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor VR1R25-151

This creative vacation rental was designed by an extremely talented local artist. It is a short walk to downtown Bar Harbor, the shore, and offers easy access to Acadia National Park. The Island Explorer, located downtown, offers a free bus service to anywhere on the island. Located in a residential area, the top floor of this renovated home is a picture of serenity, peace and quiet. Surrounded by tall trees, the space is reminiscent of dwelling in a luxurious tree house! Enjoy brilliant stars on a custom stargazing bench, relaxing on a walkout deck off the master bedroom, or sitting on the private covered front porch. The spectacular bathroom is the showcase featuring a one of a kind breathtaking tile creation. As you sit in the jacuzzi tub you will be swept away into a vision of Frenchman's bay featuring the elusive Orca whale. Not your average run of the mill vacation rental. Words can not describe what it has to offer.


Golfing: The historic Kebo Vally golf course is located just over the hill, offering world-class golfing.

Children: Directly across the street you will find Glen Mary woods, a city owned park, adjacent is the Glen Mary wading pool, perfect for younger children. Picnic are, restroom and swings are located next to the pool.

massage: On site massage available.

Convenient and cozy

We had a great stay in Bar Harbor! It was super easy to walk into town and onto the shore path, and we were just a short drive away from some great hikes. The house was well-appointed and the owners were very responsive. We hope to return!

Great location

I was very impressed with the location of the house and size of the rooms. The balconies and large tub were great bonuses. One of the rooms got a little bit warm without a fan or A/C, but I imagine those aren't needed most of the year, so that's a minor gripe. All in all, we were very happy to stay here and would consider returning.

Perfect Location for Our Bar Harbor Stay

This was our first time visiting Bar Harbor and this was the perfect location for us. We could walk to everything in the downtown area, and it was an easy drive to Acadia. The place was incredibly clean and spacious, and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Great stay!

This VRBO was perfect for our stay in Bar Harbor! While a lot of stuff is closed in the winter, it was close to everything we wanted to do. The space was clean and a good size for our family of four. Would love to stay here again when we visit!

Beautiful Artistic Home, Acadia and Bar Harbot

We couldn't be happier with our stay at Marsha's place in Bar Harbor. The apartment was just as advertised, and was very clean. The kitchen was excellently appointed with all we needed to cook our meals. The location was perfect for exploring the island while being able to walk into Bar Harbor. And the price was a most excellent value. Thank you, Marsha!
