Great Stay!
We had a lovely stay in this cozy little home. It was in great proximity to Bar Harbor shopping and restaurants— just a quick drive. Check in/out process was super simple and the property manager, Roland, was very helpful. Bonus points because the home had a pack-and-play and high chair available for use! 10/10!!
