We had a lovely stay for a couple of nights in early May. We wished we were there for an actual vacation so we could have enjoyed it more. Seven people stayed for a graduation at Maine Maritime Academy, siblings to grandparents, and the location was ideal, only a 35-40 minute drive to the academy, and the house was perfect to accommodate 7 people. We were able to make breakfasts and a large dinner. The kitchen had everything we needed. Everyone was comfortable including our senior dog. Highly recommend.

Kailleigh I am thrilled your family enjoyed your time at Simplify. It is a wonderful place to gather with family. Thank you! Kristin
Kristin was a wonderful host! And the home is stunning, inside and out, with thoughtful touches inside and fabulous views outside. Highly recommend to anyone visiting this part of our beautiful state.
The check-in process couldn’t have been any easier and Kristian was a very accommodating host. The beds were very comfortable and the house was well stocked with equipment and spices. The view from the deck was beautiful!
We had a great stay at this beautiful home! The home is clean, lots of natural light and great view. The beds are very comfy, kitchen is fully stocked (great gas stove), nice back porch, outdoor fire pit plus excellent communication from the host. We would stay again :)
Everything was absolutely perfect. The place was spotless, incredibly well equipped, comfortable beds and lots of room. We cooked dinner and had everything we needed. Kristin was fabulous. We can't wait to return!
We absolutely loved our stay! The home is beautiful and the amenities are awesome! Our youngest traveler was 16 and our oldest was almost 80 and everyone was beyond happy with the home. The view was the cherry on top and we will cherish this family trip for a lifetime!
Everything was fantastic about our stay. The house and view were great. Sitting on the deck with time of day appropriate beverage looking at the wonder view was great. Kitchen had everything you'd need. All in all 10 out of 10. Host had fantastic suggestions for restaurants and sites.
We very much enjoyed our stay. House was well equipped, clean, beautiful view, and beds were comfortable which is always important. We all slept well. We made s'mores by the fire pit and made great use of the kitchen. We love family hikes and did a lot of hiking near the Acadia/Bar Harbor area.
Thanks for letting us stay at your rental home.

Everything you could want in a Maine house: amazing views, more than ample living space, fully equipped kitchen (better than our home), cozy and quiet, close to shopping and restaurants, and a ping pong table! Our family loved it. Not only a place to rest and relax, but also a perfect place to entertain. They deserve all the highest of ratings and our strongest recommendations. We would return in a heartbeat!

Andy, I am so thankful your family loved it! That's the most important. Also, thank you for your great comments.
From the moment we pulled in we were awed by the beautiful, serene views. Opening the front door, the inside of the house complimented the outdoors (calm, serene and beautiful). The kitchen was wide open and had amazing counter space. The house was stocked with absolutely anything we would have needed. The basement was perfect for our teenage boys, equipped with a ping pong table. The fire pit area was perfect and we used the large driveway area to play yard games. Now about the dogs... We loved that our puppies were so welcomed, with the fenced in area being a great addition to the outside yard. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. The host left a detailed note with directions and recommendations. We love this area. Thank you for a great vacation!!

Sarah thank you for your thoughtful review. You recognized and experienced exactly why we rent our home. To live inside a space that has all you need while experiencing the beauty of the natural land. I love that you played so many games and had a chance to experience a campfire (with s'mores). Walking into a clean house is a true value of ours. As is the ability of our dogs to be safe and free to roam in the backyard. Again, I am so thankful for your thoughtful words and so thankful you all had a great vacation!!!
